Philosophers of different ideologies have summarised in their own idiosyncrasies and inane semantic analysis the idea of what they perceive 'The WORLD' to be.

Ideology I:

The world goes round and history repeats itself. A branch with Herodotus's renown statement, " He who does not learn from the mistakes of the past is condemned to repeat it," is stashed in there somewhere and the karma-tic belief of what goes around comes around. 

Ideology II:

The world is made out of mountaintops and valleys. Life is basically made out of good and bad, good and bad AND............ good and bad.

The third is rather a dogma we Christians hold on to. The world is a passing phase and HEAVEN is where it's all good.However, HERE WE ARE on earth, how DO we make the most out of us?

For me personally, the world is gorgeous with the sunrises and sunsets at the beach, Penang hill,England hahah!, grey skies, nice people, law, IPG ( AHAHAHAHAH!) ...... and the world is hideous with sickness, poverty, hate, gossip, malice, enemies, PROBLEMS (a hideousness we ALL definitely face inevitably as we all SIN)........

There are generally 4 ways people handle their problems a. k. a SIN.

1. Ignore(assumably blissful but actually self-deceiving). The red fuel indicator is flashing. The driver just ignores it.

2. Plaster.(assumably tackling but actually temporarily subduing). The driver grabs a plaster and covers up the flashing light.

3. Indiscriminate response. (assumably quick and easy but actually doing nothing but massive destruction). The driver whacks the light with a bat until it stops flashing.

4. Stop the car, open it and go, " Oh! My fuel's leaking and running dry! I see! ", refill it and DRIVE ON.

Some people, being obstinate as they are, prefer to call their sins 'MISTAKES' to lessen the harshness of reality and their fallacy in being upright. However, can one change the label on the bottle called 'POISON' without creating potential damage? One cannot. In fact, it is purposeless and misleading to do so.

Function vs Structure: The outside may be still functioning well althought an artery is 60% blocked, however,in reality, the person is structurally defective.

The law can tell us what we are doing wrong, but it cannot save us. Consequently, the root of recovery is TO DIAGNOSE and tell ourselves straight in the face the shortcomings we possess. Daddy in heaven is an upright, righteous judge who makes our wrongs and rightful consequences/punishments known to us BUT when he removes his wig, he gives us the money to pay the summons and tells us not to do it again.  

Choose wisely, all ye who are given freedom to choose. Instead of temptation accompanying ye enroute, choose God's presence instead.

How Much Am I Worth?

A nice American man made this question easy to answer in the literal sense. He liquidified a body and extracted the minerals. An entire human body, by average, carries the estimated value of 6.75USD. Since this was done way back then, after inflations and what nots, it should amount up to 20USD now.

WELL, WELL, WELL...... this little fact simply shouted, "HEY, you're just dust of the earth!"

BUT....... Thank God there's always a BUT ( even in Ecclesiastes, when all seems meaningless...the ending spells meaning to LIFE ) .......the man did not account for the Breath of Life breathed into us DING! we have just been REVALUED

So, what do we say to old HABITS OF THINKING/SPEECH/ACTIONS?

To quote the infamous Morpheus of the Matrix Trilogy,                  "Free your mind. Let go of fear, doubt and disbelief." Sad as it is, we have deeply ingrained bad BAD BADDD habits that fits us so comfortably that makes us mistake that for who we are and NO, I'm not referring to bad habits like forgetting to flush before stepping out of the toilet or littering. Though that IS very very bad  Freeing the mind simply means REJECTING the times your brain goes, "What can i do? I have an angry temperament OR I'm never good with kids OR I'm self-conscious OR I can't help it! Forgetfulness is my nature!"

 Sow a thought, you reap an action, sow an action, you reap a habit, sow a habit, you reap character, sow character, you reap your DESTINY.

everybody go..."WOW I never saw it that way!"

Our Darling Daddy is always forgiving no doubt. Anyhow, Daddy doesn't like spending his time with us only weeding out our sins He wants to stroll in His wonderful garden seeing the fruits he planted, grow, and not always come to find them choked and dead, having to replant them again and again. 

We have to admit, the more we hear of something, the more we believe. Can one believe in something they disagree in? Not unless one agrees to disagree. We MUST agree with Daddy when He says we can do ALL things in Him. Needless to elaborate any further, I think everyone gets the right approach to 'problematic problems' now

Believe first, in the UNBELIEVABLE. The impossible will then be made POSSIBLE.

When Nagging Nobody down there comes to stir up our old 'Worthless Whiny' thoughts, before it turns to a Worthless Whiny Destiny, say to the Silly Selfish Sourpot that came to steal, kill and destroy:

" I'm Worth Dying For. You are NOT."

I am known for my funny facial expressions.

Ask anyone. Be it contorted or well-mannered, I have always thought I was alone in this so-called disorder. Along the walk of life, one meets very few people who share this rare similarity and a knack for nuts-ism. Why we do it?

Frankly, I don't have a clue.

Let me share with you some of the funny unexplainable habits/mediums of expressions my brain has compiled from knowing the people I know. YEAH... I know! What in the world happened to old-fashion stretches??? Beats me.

1. Spasticism - Self-inflicted involuntary/voluntary extraordinary gestures that displays an effect similar to someone being electrocuted.

2. Fuh-Fuh-Fuh - A display of lip flexibility where the lower lip is sucked in and the upper lip is lifted to reveal the upper teeth. This technique is completed by making the sounds fuh-fuh-fuh. Thus, where its name came from.

3. The Antler - An animal-like stance that involves the two palms spreaded into an antler like shape and placed strategically on the head for an applauding effect. ( Users sometimes jig their palms for extra effect)

4. The Blink - This technique is rather strenuous on the eye. One blinks his/her eye in a rapid mode with the tongue sticking out. (Annoying, yes. My friend does it ALL the time.)

5. Drums - I guess this is the most sane-looking one of the lot. One just uses

 their arms as drumsticks and play beats on their thighs or chests. Pros may throw in their feet as well to mimic the basses.

So, I guess there is a tinge of insanity in all of us. Humourous or not. For instance, I am nutty now. That is why I am writing such utterly ....... I don't even have the word for it. OK!

hmm.. I'm hungry.......

*SQUINTS and sticks out tongue* BLEHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.........That's officially mine

.........runs off to eat cereal.........
