The plastic life. Blog poetry.

The world is not a stranger, there are sites to see and places to go. But what became of the person that I used to know a blog a blog of poetry a blog of words meaningless until human beings put meeting to them.  I used to know a man who rambled quite a bit and was incoherent and what he said something like the homeless person that you see walking down the street on a cold winters day with no shoes on! Go see the priest they tell him go see the rabbi go see the clergyman, if you're looking for salvation you've come to the wrong place you won't find it here on the Internet well at least not on some of the sites. Sort of a self-education I've been giving myself recently, enough of the foolish talk. I've been reading about a condition called schizophrenia, something that supposed to stop life in its tracks. But what about the religion that I used to have before this apocalypse of truth, I digress. I'll tell you the truth something that you may not of considered bef

Indifference leads to indifference.

Some people in strategic leadership positions Face a great hurdle trying to bring new ideas into a company or into society. One of the things that has to be overcome is the indifference of people to except new ideas. The most successful ideas that could be excepted always comes with an incentive, but what if there is no incentive to offer does that idea just float away into the ether? I would say the idea then becomes the incentive itself. In a good marriage there is give-and-take, you take in the groceries and I'll vacuum the carpet, you shoveled the driveway and I'll do the laundry! The give-and-take and the incentives can be endless in a relationship defined as marriage. But should incentives determine whether or not we will succeed in a business venture or not? What about religious organizations? Surley you cannot buy and sell religion as if to go to Walmart and pick up a loaf of bread! The incentives based model may or may not work with religious organizations, unless what

When you're not in the mood?

Living a life as a 40 something has many challenges and advantages compared to when I was younger. The obvious one being that I'm still single, but the more complicated and difficult challenges that life throws at you you are more aware and prepared to handle something that may have given you more trouble when you were younger. I became a born-again Christian when I was 21, fell in love and then fell out of love. The romance department has been kind of well let's just say not happening, but that isn't a cause for depression... It's a cause to look at things as they really are! Most people my age would be extremely depressed that they had met that special someone yet, and believe me I know that there are people out there who are in the same situation that I'm in! Yet what the singleness have to offer compare to being in a relationship they are two completely different things. The obvious differences someone who is not single has another human being to snuggle up with

To be at a concert.

My journey has not always been an easy one, but it has been graced by Mercy and truth even when I was in rebellion against God. I came to a saving knowledge of the gospel when I was 21 but quickly backslid back into a life of sin, not sin in it's full power however I was backslidden enough not to realize that I was in the spiritual danger. This is where the story gets good. I remember attending the lollapalooza  in my early 20s with a friend of mine. The first band onstage was Cypress Hill, I was not at Cypress Hill fan at the time and neither was the friend the female friend that I went with to the concert. We made our way closer to the front of the stage, and happened to come across some old friends of mine. As the song by Cypress Hill came out, a lot of people around us starting lighting up.. Not cigarettes mind you, I started to walk away from my friends motioning to my girlfriend to follow me. We were going to make her way to the beer tent even though none of us were going to
