To much football/tv to do fluids 2 homework
I wish there was dodgeball, I wanted to play, maybe they changed venues without telling anyone.
Watching the stories about 9-11 are so sad, I see why a lot of people began to be stressed out by the media coverage so much. I was getting stressed about the coverage of new orleans, I could watch flooded houses and damage like that, but the second they start putting a human element into the picture, I begin to want to avoid it. Early on there was a black guy being interview, he told of how his wife slipped through his hands and what that convorsation was. I guess I try to myself in thier shoes, on some subconsious level, and only when that reaches critical mass do I ever show that anything is effecting me. I could only take watching that guy's interview 3 times before it got to me. I guess I like the keep myself in a closed off world, seeing only property damage when there is a human element that I overlook. This isn't a good view to have, it is very materialistic, or maybe not, it could be that I don't want to accknowledge that something bad happened to people, and that this bad thing could easily happen to me, provided a paticular set of circumstances. I would hate to lose someone close to me in that fashion, natural desaster, or terrorist attack, I would hate if I where the differance between life or death. I hope it is God's will that I never face such a descision, but if it is he will guide me to do everything in my power.
...i think i am going to leave this subject for now
reminder: i need to pray for katie's grandfather. He is going to be having open heart surgery.
I decided a statement on mortality was not a place in this entry
