guppies having puppies

September 27th, 2004 Comments off

My guppies are having puppies! it’s so exciting…and slightly disturbing. :-)

If you’d like to have a guppy (not sure what breed yet), let me know…assuming that they grow and don’t get sucked up by the filter.

They will probably cost about 50 cents.

Re: Right to marry a dream

The Diamondback had an article on September 23 that said same-sex marriages is analogous to civil rights.

I’m writing a reply to this letter. Having some trouble editing it for length. :-)

Look for the full-text, edited, and published versions here.

“Get busy living or get busy dying.”

September 24th, 2004 1 comment

I’ve found myself so busy this semester…but it is more out of wanting to do nothing than anything else. I feel like the motivation is lacking.

One of the things I’ve wondered is this quote from the Shawshank Redemption. It’s so easy for me to take the easy way out (ironic, isn’t it?) but how do you start living?

What does it mean to truly live?

When I was praying, I thought of the phrase “Dictionary Promises” and thought about how we define ourselves. Sometimes I think I define myself by what I do, or what other people think of me. But I think this keeps us struggling as to who we really are. I keep comparing myself to others…will that comparison ever be the same? Or am I shooting aimlessly for something I will never reach?

The Purpose Driven Life…Go pick up a copy today.
