Today is a new beginning.

I remembered the first day I started blogging. I doubted anyone would bother to read it. Somehow a 16 year old boy's kind words and a few jokes had me hooked on writing something, anything almost every single day on a blog that had less than 5 followers.
So sad.

Soon I started having a life beyond the internet and ended up being to busy doing other stuff. So starting today, I am going to do what I have been neglecting to do for these 2 years. BLOG.

E-bay

A man bought a new APC Back-UPS 600 but it wasn't working. So HE brought it to his local service center. This is what they found...

Something to just laugh at.

Growing up.

When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways. -1 Corinthians 13:11-

I wanted many things when I was younger. (Like a doll house or a dog)
Yet as I grew older I placed those wants aside for something more important in life.
I started wanting more of God instead. I started yearning for my family to be constantly happy and bless. I wished for the grades that made my family, God and I proud of. I started placing importance on my friends and the relationships I made with others. I started looking at things differently.

I realised the sacrifices my family made. And I saw the love God showered on every of us.

The other day I read an article about a man whom stilled lived with his parents even though he is in his late 20's. His mother still does chores for him (washing his clothes, cooking, etc). And he lives off them just as he had from the moment he was born.
One day, she refused to iron his shirt for him and he lost it. Angered, he took a gun and aimed it at her. All the while, threatening to blow her brain out if she refused.
Somehow after he cooled down, she went out of the house and called the police. And to this day he sits there in his little jail cell.

The article really opened my eyes to what would happen to us if we chose not to grow up. And stay stagnant with our closed mindsets, never growing nor changing.
Think about it.

I for one refuse to become like this man. The question is though What about you?

Eleven years ago Dave Devries started the Monster Engine project with one single question: What would a child’s drawing look like if it were painted realistically?

And so he decided to draw these little drawings....























It makes you have a new perspective on how a child sees things. The art work is slightly odd looking yet one can't help appreciating how it looks.
