    I missed the State of Union Address because I had a softball game. (I am in a recreational softball league...we suck...it is fun though!) Anyway, I think I am going to my friends' house on Thursday to watch it. They are playing a drinking game and my friend and I are going to take shots of soda because I don't drink, and I don't really drink soda either so it will be hard to take it down...haha. It is going to be really fun! I am enjoying life I think. My class is almost over and I am not doing as well as I thought I would do, but I am over it...sorta. Wow, my life is boring. This is a stupid way to start a new train of thought but oh well. So I was watching an episode of Sex and the City today and Miranda was baptizing her baby, even though she didn't believe in god really. Religion is the most difficult thing to question I think because I know very few people who grew up without it. It is also a touchy subject because if you say you don't believe in anything people look at you oddly. Then comes the question of how to celebrate holidays. I know plenty of people, well most people celebrate Christmas only for the gifts. I think it is an important holiday because of tradition and family. If I ever have a family I can't not celebrate these with my family. I have had a few conversations about questioning the whole institute. I have followed what my family and my surroundings have told me about religion. I have come to realize that I don't think I believe in anything. It is scary feeling at first. I used to pray whenever I wanted something..usually nothing in my life changed. And nothing has changed since I have stopped praying. There have been a few times that I have conversations about questioning things but it seems most people have gone the other way. How can you really believe in something without every questioning it?

    IT's the terrible pressure that success brings ....that is in fact more pressure causing than ill events. I now see why perhaps, those addicted to things (e.g. like medications, illegal drugs AND drug-pushers) from giving up their drugs and entering life with a newer start. IF they did so, with the right attitude, they would have a better life- a happier life, but they don't want to get better (i.e. from a certain point of view)

    My life seems so confusing right now. I have Sarah living in a group home, Stephen is failing school, my job does not seem as fulfilling as it has been and things with Naz seem *changed*. I am not sure what I am suppose to do to change any of these things. Over and over, every day, I am struggling in understanding all of these things. Sometimes it seems like I am living to *avoid* the issues, other times I can't escape them. I do not know what tomorrow is going to throw at me and that feels so horribly scary. It feels so uncontrolled.

    The diet is working thus far. I have lost a total of 43 pounds since I started, but I need to alter the food content and put some more proteins and carbs into it because it is starting to effect me in small ways like muscle mass and energy. I found that carbs are what the human body uses for fuel...IT NEEDS THEM to function properly. also, proteins are what our bodies use for building muscle and without them our muscles get weaker. Beans and wheat breads and more brown rice are good ways to accomplish this. It is still successful as a diet goes, just slowing a bit in total weight loss.

    What about the "humble" bunch of us that are not destined for "greatness" in the eyes of other people?! It doesn't make us any less valued or needed..only God deems "greatness" and in his eyes some chosen few that we may deem "less great" on this planet, could be HIS greatest servants of all, and produce his greatest works of all..ever hear that new song by Randy Travis, "Three Wooden Crosses?!

    In recent three days, my son and I stayed at home. We are very happy, my son looks like an angel in the whole day, giggling, running, speaking loudlyall the time. Looking at his happy face, I am very satisfied with that.

    If People insist that all things are empty and transitory, it is just as great a mistake to insist that all things are real and do not change. If a person becomes attached to his ego-personality, it is a mistake because it cannot save him from dissatisfaction or suffering. If he believes there is no ego, it is also a mistake and it would be useless for him to practice the Way of Truth. If people assert that everything is happiness, that is a mistake, too. Buddha teaches the middle way transcending these prejudiced concepts, where duality merges into oneness. Gautama Buddha.
