Why does life never go the way we want it to? In my life that is one of the most relevant questions i have ever heard. Sometimes i feel like complete rubbish because i feel there is no one there.
A feeling of deep sadness or loss sometimes engulfs me. I wonder at life and try to show people how i feel, who i really am; but selfish emotions lead nowhere. So what can we do?
a few hard ideas here. Stop thinking about yourself, damn, if it was just that easy. But really if you spend more time helping others your own wants will die away. Remember in life it's not what we want that matters its what we need.
Remember that there will always be people who love you. You can talk to people you trust if you go about in the right attitude, don't be self centered just explain it as a life consuming problem.
Try to do things that engage your time well and make you feel good inside and out. Its a cliche answer but helping others works. Also you could try changing the world/or just your lifestyle.
Now, lets get to a more direct issue. Is there a someone who makes you feel joyous one day and hopeless the next? Emotions are a two-edged sword; used with skill it can be precise, used without it can be lethal. I won't give you people any advice i wouldn't try myself, but get to know them. Get to know the person you like (or think you like). I know it sounds strange but it will save a lot of time later on. Most times you just like them for their looks, but personality is just as important. You may find out their going in a completely different direction to you and on that you don't want to ruin a good friendship.
Spend time with them, if they want to. Don't create any uncomfortable moments that you both may regret. Show them that you care about them. A lot of people don't make the effort, but it's worth it, after all they're going to want to talk to someone who wants to know.
A good strong relationship takes time. A lifelong marriage was never built overnight so move forward together at a rate you are both comfortable with. And talk about it. Talk about where your relationship is going. Talk about how you are feeling, help each other and understand one another. Conversation can build so many bridges and open so many doors and create so many more cheesy metaphors, talk and share your love show your feelings, support each other and there is one more thing.
God. Creator of all, friend to all. Father and provider. If you put God at the center of all you do you cannot go wrong. Let God help and guide you in daily life and ask him about the major decisions in your life. God wants to know how you are doing and how he can help.
God wants to know you so listen to THIS.

A Pass on Truth
Why is it that we get so entangled by emotions? We want to tell people how we feel but, inside we are embarrassed or ashamed of what we have to say.
If there is one lesson I want to show to the people it is this:
'never be ashamed by your love, for love itself is a pure creation. It has innocence, forgiveness and above all it seeks truth. For when truth and love are united as one, there is no power that can overcome that universal truth'
Let not love be an idea, let it be a way of living and let those you care about know that you love them.
So back to the question; why is it that we get so entangled by emotions? The answer lies in several places and i think each one is different to the type of person. It may be that you are insecure and are scared of people picking you apart, but remember love overcomes fear. It may just be that you feel the time is not right. Fair enough. Everything has its time, but don't put it off because of fear. For you may end up waiting too long and missing the chance. Or it could just be solid doubt. Do i really like them? Do they feel the same way? Well if you never tell them you will never know how they feel.
Yes love is kind and completely enrapturing. But it takes guts to admit real love. It takes an inner strength that dosen't come about easily, to show someone you care.
A real relationship will involve you fully. It will involve every aspect of your life coming under some type of scrutiny. But do not shy away for a bold heart IS a strong heart in love

Simplicity
I only ever wanted to live life. But now i find my 'day to day' life filled with jargon, yes all this media and unnecessary overexertion by, well basically everyone. "I want to live in a world..." are words that can so easily roll off our tongues, but unless we become 'proactive' and strive for change ourselves nothing will happen.
Do I plan ahead and think about the future? I recall an incident several years ago with a 'friend'. I would see her every week at least once and we would talk at length about lots of different things. I just saw us as friends, but I think she saw it as something more. We drifted apart and for a couple of years i forgot about her. It sounds truly horrific but I did, I just didn't care. I only remember her again when I heard a particular song which I'm sure we both loved.
For link click here
So remember what was given, remember life has a reason and remove the jargon from your life. So that simplicity and freedom from God can be given to you and your families. And so that we can step on into the future together.

The true expression
The written word. One of the greatest achievement of humanity, but which can sometimes carry so little value. We are seeing more and more that heart moving speeches are so simple to write (any decent politician can write a lovely tear jerker), but they fail to put belief behind the words they sing so freely.
I ask you, in a world where language is changing, where everything is changing are we allowing so little emphasis to come on points of view? Are we failing to see that the more we talk the less we actually say? Soon it will take us minutes to relay how we feel, or maybe emotions will be a thing of the past, where we actually can't explain how we feel. I hope not, but we live in an ever changing world, and if we ever tried to stop it changing we would become the enemy and misunderstood. Life goes on always but i do, in the back of my mind, fear an age of Newspeak coming upon us. Don't take this the wrong way I'm definitely not a prescriptivist, but i do believe that language should try to hold on to the value of emotional representation. Otherwise our society may one day die out from the lack of "something the scholars used to call 'love'".
So let us spread love while we may. The hardest thing for me to write is "tell someone you love them" and i don't really know why. It seems that deep down i feel embarrassed saying it, and personally i feel as if it's something I have to say on my own, without any help of any form. Something which is gone after a moment, but takes an eternity to build up to. So here's a challenge for me too. Tell your loved ones how you feel. And I'll leave it at that.

Have we ever had innocence?
It is childish to think that every person sees life in the same way. Here's an example. If we all saw the world exactly the same, we would be ruled over by one Global Government, and we would all freely take part in the party.
Fortunately, we are all much different and can see the world in our own ways. But this causes problems. This can cause cross purposes and in our minds people are insulting us when in fact they are complementing. Fortunately, this is where patience is key. We can spend time asking them what they meant and understanding their point of view. Thus we can develop together and help others see the different points of view.
Harmonisation. Not only in society with our friends and people, but inside us also. If we are all mangled up inside where our beliefs are constantly clashing with our lifestyle then we will act differently towards each other. A bad man cannot be made good by society, only by changing the fundamental morals on which he acts. If you see no link between these two truths (harmonisation and morals) then go, see how people with twisted morals react towards others and how their behaviour limits their uses. Then you may be able to understand that we need to be in harmony, as a united World. So that we can take the last few steps into the unknown together.

The People Responsible
Are you listening, are you paying attention? This world is changing, and at this very moment in time, not for the better. We allow the public to be bullied and harassed by the Government, while they hide behind their piles of money and the deficit. Yes people voted the current Prime Minister in, but that's only because they believed in his party's original policies.
Lets get things clear. Cameron holds all the power in the Government (well whats left), while Clegg changes his steadfast beliefs as quick as the wind changes, so he's always agreeing with Cameron. Clegg does nothing. He has no influential effect, he just gets his face on TV.
I'm not saying that Labour are the sinless, rightful party to run the Government, but at least they cared more about people in general. With Cameron, its let the rich dine heartily and let (or should it be make) the poor hold up the table.
A friend of mine complains that i moan too much about the Government. Well i wouldn't if their standard of living (3 LARGE houses, extravagant lifestyles, limitless money) was available to everyone. You have to be born into money, to be a member of Parliament. I wouldn't even moan if it was voluntary, and something deeply wrong has to in motion, if people don't want to live under 'the Government'.
It is meant to be a foundation where the best standard of living is made free for all. Where society develops as one and goes through troubles together. We are in a divided nation. No wonder life is so bloody hard, what they call freedom, is what we called slavery. I'll let you make your own parallels.

Free Water, From the Sky?
You know what I'm sick of? There is no-where on the (English) Governments websites where ideas can be recommended, so I'm going to publish a few more reserved examples here.
We recently (a few months ago) had quite a bad drought in which all the 'reservoirs where loosing lots of water' according to the media. So here's the idea. The Government distributes (for free) 50 litre containers which can be attached to the bottom of the gutter spout, collecting rainwater. Every fortnight or so a lorry comes around to collect the water which then can be put into the reservoirs. Especially in times of drought.
Now i know this will cost money, but with this Government who's gonna notice another 2% on the tax? (clear irony).
This could stop the hosepipe bans and anyone who doesn't want to be involved can opt out. Thus saving time and annoying everyone. Obviously an idea the Government* will love.
*note: the use of a capital G in Government is more out of contempt and hilarity rather than respect.
Oh and also i decided to publish this after being told that i should recommend what the Government should do to improve.

A Modern Interpretation
One of the duties of the church is to understand politics. Not to take politics on, but to understand the usage of it. For to start using politics will lead to division and malice amongst the members of the church. But to understand the principles and reasons for using politics helps to combat the effects of the government, and under careful guard and development could lead to a better life in the church. As a whole the church would gain a larger place in the minds of individuals, and the congregation would be united in larger decisions made by the church. The works of God would be seen more clearly by the public and the preciousness of them would be understood.

Reduction is Gain
Politicians will lie and they will backstab and they will do whatever it takes to (in England anyway) become Prime Minister. While convincing the public that they have the people’s interests at heart, rather than the massive pension on which each Prime Minister can retire. “Any former Prime Minister is entitled to half his £194,250 salary index-linked against inflation for the rest of his life.” This is a direct quote from
http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/finance/ianmcowie/100005545/number-10-defends-gordon-browns-gold-plated-pension/
for those who are interested. Oh and don’t forget the £2 million worth of assets they get as standard. It just shows that any man who is ‘chosen’ (don’t forget we don’t really live in a world of freedom – see 1984 by George Orwell) to ‘run’ the country will probably not make much difference, considering their first aim is ‘to look after number 1’. Any decision a Prime Minister makes probably comes from a higher authority that chooses to be invisible, while still manipulating the country for the gain of power.
So the question is, why does the general public let it continue? Because a large percentage of us are afraid of change. We are scared of the impact of change, which we are responsible for. The government has succeeded in making the general public feel unable to run the country, so any decision we make will be the wrong choice, but for us as individuals it will be the most bearable choice. We have to believe we can do what they do, but better, in order just to overcome their pressurization.
