My cheerfulness, notwithstanding. There is a silent little sigh arising from the depths of my heart... I want to believe this is God's plan, I don't want to fight it, but these thoughts of being estranged from my friends because they are non-believers...
How can God, who is so loving, be so cruel?
That is a rhetorical statement, I do not actually question my Lord, but it disturbs me.

Talked to Lis, she always brings me hope, peace and comfort. God bless her. I love you Lis... you are my blessing.

A child of steel stands strong to the world
So new, so shiny, so structured, so complete,
Standing tall, tens of years, perfect form.

Lo and behold, cry the people,
That child of steel makes them quiver
With its sheer impossibility.

But time leaves none unscathed,
The child cannot bend, cannot show weakness,
Yet gets eaten away.

Slowly, slowly, forces itself to show no tear
Until with the last of its breath,
It collapses, lonely, into black oblivion.
