CHASING THE WIND...a conclusion, a beginning


Stop it!
That is the most simple, yet profound statement to be made.
If it were up to me I could just let go of my foolish sinful ways.
I could just start doing what is right and best for me and my soul.
But its not that simple...
I cant just do it.
Life is meaningless if not spent in pursuit of the meaning of life.
 God is the source, meaning, and giver of all life.
And not just any God, sorry.

Jesus is what we know Him by, Yeshua to be more accurate.

He wants us to seek Him, right here, right now, in the midst of our sin.
To come to Him in all our splendid brokenness.
To love the Lord God with all of our might and soul.
That is the only thing that will ever have meaning...ever.
No matter where you are in life.
Stop trying to obtain happiness.
Stop trying to find love.
Stop whatever it is.
Its all as worthless as trying to catch the wind...

Stop.

Love God, Love each other, serve mankind.

Stop chasing the wind.

And catch the creator of it

musical monday (BSIDES SAMPLER)

So this is a rare video of some concert footage with my group BSIDES and the live band vintgae ninja, we called our selves B-NINJAS, we did a few shows as a collective unit and had a ton of fun, I hope we can do it again some time

The audio quality is not the best, but I bet you can get the jest of what went on.
I'm the over weight sweaty viking in the video.
Enjoy...

ROADSWORTH

ROADSWORTH has been doing his thing since 2001, using stencils to adapt the existing road graphics, mainly on the streets of Montreal, initially as a protest against the lack of cycle lanes, but increasingly as a commentary on car culture, oil dependency and authoritarianism.
Whether or not he is accomplishing what he wants too with his stuff,I dont know, but think its really really dope to look at!

Where the wild things are the movie.. oh yes


THIS IS JUST A TEST SCREENING, IT IS NOT EDITED!
 

So "Where the wild things are" was by far one of my favorite books as a kid.

I just found out that they are/were making a movie for it!!!!
This is really exciting, and sad  news to me! It is directed by Spike Jonez, the genious behind "BEING JOHN MALKOVICH" It was originally scheduled to be released in the fall of 09, but there is some drama from WB studios about the movie being not kid friendly and too dark(sort of like the book), there is even threats that they might have to scrap it and re shoot to make it more kiddy, I sure hope not! Either way I still am stoked at the possibility, and have my hopes up high just based off the test screen clip and photo it looks like it would be DOPE!!!!!!

New design site

So I just finished doing my new design portfolio site.
Remember how much I hate coding? So this is a miracle that I even got it done, I imagine I will do some tweaking here and there but for now it will do what I need it to do.

I will however be adding new content from time to time so keep a look out for that.

Anyway enjoy.... soulmanadesign.com

crackberry tattoo=failure


Okay so I understand the love for technology and fancy electronic toys, I am guilty of being a macnerd, no denying it.
There is a line however, and this duece just officially crossed it.
He got a blackberry storm tattoo on his ankle, in order to win a free phone, and boy o boy do we have a winner here, unfortunately for him once the the new crackberry comes out he will still have an old, ugly, tattoo of a lame phone on his cankle, I wonder if someone should let him know that tattoos are permanent....nahhh!!


wow!

The golden Ticket



What is it for you?
You know, that little ticket we hold on to that keeps us from seeking God?
Somebody in the church hurt you, you are confused, pissed off, Christians are fake etc.
We hold on to it, I think most people have one (or 12) you know its that reason, or should I say excuse that you use to either not come to God at all or to not grow.
For some this ticket will be the eternal death of them. It will keep them from ever being born in to Gods kingdom. For others it will bring un necessary pain, and sorrow in to there lives.
We should try to lay it down, let it go.
For me it is many things.
One of my big issues is finances, or the lack there of.
It seems like I have made for my self a goal of finally being financially secure.
A silent contract that reads: “Once I get money then I can go on further in my relationship with God.”
There not always conscious descions, sometimes they are subconscious.
Another one for me is anger at the Almighty Head Honcho.
That’s right I am/was pissed off at God! Why? I felt like He abandoned me when I needed him the most. Would not deliver me from my pet little sin. In the end its not worth hanging on too. God knows best, but not all things happen because God made them happen.
This life is messed up, we are messed up from birth.
God loves us and may choose to let us suffer, but that does not mean He made it happen. Everything does not happen for a reason, and if there is a reason than I believe sometimes that reason is because we are messed up, not God, but us!
Holding on to our golden tickets is pointless, in the grand scheme of things.
Now
I might not have mentioned your golden ticket,
But
Whatever it is, we should try to lay it down, let it go.
We only have one life to live, and those golden tickets your holding on to may never be fixed, dont waste your one life chasing the wind, golden ticket in hand!

Only in Oklahoma


Yeah I know, I dont want to further the ignorance that thinks that simply because I live in oklahoma that we still ride around in horse and buggy, but the other day I went to go get lunch at braums, and lo and behold there were two guys on horse back! Not just guys, two gangsta thugged out looking cats, hoody and all!
My mouth hit the floor! 
I stopped right in the middle of the parking lot and pulled my phone out and snapped this shot, The best part about it, they freaking mean mugged me, like I was not suppose to stop and take a picture.
All I can say is, if you don't wanna be exploited then dont ride your freaking horse up to the restaurant to pick up a burger and fries!!!
They found a tree, roped there steeds down and went in.
Lol! 
Only in Oklahoma, and maybe Texas!
So awesome.
You have got to love it!

my prayer, Your prayer, suffering(UPDATE)


I will do anything to keep that beautiful face smiling!
Thanks a lot to everyone who prayed.
She is doing better, still in pain, but no more puking.
She is a solider and I am very proud of her and to be married to her!
She had to go to work tonight so we will see how that goes.

I really do appreciate the prayers, 
We are seriously seeking God to try and find a cure, she has tried various drugs, to no avail. She has a great deal of stress with her work and school, on top of the pressure we collectively have been under, moving, money,etc. which seems to be the #1 culprit in our life right now.
 Anybody who knows me, or who has dealt with me can testify that I have been talking about us having a really stressful year so far.

So I would like to request from anybody who prays if you could shoot some prayers in our direction about trusting God, and relief from stress, emotional and FINANCIAL! I think that is the cause of her migraines, and my headaches!

Thanks again!
God bless
