Midlife Crisis


I like to think I'm in the middle of a mid-life crisis, and I love it. Before this, life was boring. Get up, take a crap, shower, shave, eat, drive to work, work, drive home, eat, sleep. REPEAT !! How flipping boring is that. Now, I challenge everything. I don't let to many things get by without saying "Oh yeah, what about the opposite?? Ever try that way?" It makes life so much more interesting. And I don't really care much about the big things in life that everyone struggles so hard in life to achieve, examples : a good job, a nice car, lots of money, fancy house. Instead I let all the little things in life piss me off, unlike most of you who just let it roll off your back like water on a ducks back. You see .. OPPOSITE. And you know what ? I like opposite, going with the grain is so boring.

I look out everyday and see everybody going about there day all trying to accomplish their little goals that they think are so important and think "Your full of crap!" I mean big deal, you licked your bosses butt at work, got home for supper, got the kids to bible camp, ran around town running errands, blah, blah, blah. I think your all like watching little ants on an ant hill just trying to please some stupid queen.

It's like religion. All my life I just took religion as a "standard rule". It was taught to me, forced upon me all through living at home, it MUST be right. And since it must be right, who am I to question why it makes no sense, never has. I never really "got" religion. It was all faith, everything I didn't get was because of "faith", OR "God works in mysterious ways". I always liked that one. "This makes absolutely NO LOGICAL sense at all, ahhhhhh I forgot "God works in mysterious ways".
Well now that I've wasted half my life talking to a invisible man in thin air (who never answers back), I decided to say "What if". As in, what if it's all bullshit. And you know what, life makes alot more sense to me now. I still don't know what happens when we die, but guess what EITHER DOES YOUR PREACHER. Think about it, how the hell does HE know ??? How does anyone know ?? We're all still alive !! Kinda hard to tell ME what happens when you die if your not dead yet ........ interesting.

So next time your sitting there at a red light, waiting for it to turn green so you can rush and get your kids to T-ball, and then run around town doing all kinds of stupid crap that really don't need to be done. Just take a deep breath, and at least consider having yourself a "mid-life" crisis, question everything normal, and DON'T do what Jesus would do. It's alot of fun, and makes life much more interesting. As the t-shirt says "Normal people scare me."


Todays RBV:

Genesis 17:14 And the uncircumcised man child whose flesh of his foreskin is not circumcised, that soul shall be cut off from his people; he hath broken by covenant.


Well that's just dandy. All people who haven't been "cut", are suppose to be cut off from society. I guess the moral of the story is, circumcised or not, your bound to get cut.
