| On the subject of Christmas |
[Dec. 17th, 2007|10:28 pm] |
One of the most annoying times of the year is here. Rhyme. Christmas! I say it is annoying because my family gets annoyed when they ask what I want and I reply "I don't know". Now I have been spoiled from an early age and they constantly remind me of that, telling me how I have everything already. I don't want to make it seem like I am some perfect person who is writing this to be preachy because that is not what I want this to be. These are just things I have felt over the past few years, that pop back up into my mind during this holiday season. I find it annoying that this holiday is now based around idea of giving of gifts; even in my own family people talk about someone who might not buy a gift for all or even re-give the same gift as last year, who cares? The fact that we have turned Jesus Christ's day of birth, into a chance to get as many things as our parents money allows us to get is despicable. I know this is not news to anybody that x-mas has turned into a marketing ploy; but the fact that people, many of whom don't even believe in Christs presence on earth, ask for xbox's, clothes, cars, computers, forms of money like gift cards, and sometimes actual money is ridiculous. The most positive thing I try and take from this holiday is that I get to see my family, which I am thankful are all healthy for the time being. The idea that we expect to get something from others for doing pretty much nothing is what I have deduced from this festive time of the year. But this clamoring for material objects goes beyond Christmas. I have always tried to go by the "treat others as you would like to be treated" mantra and I am proud of myself for that, but if people don't return the favor whats the point? This speaks more on peoples generosity and compassion than that of material objects. I understand my friends are poor college kids like me, so I almost regret being annoyed at having to pay for my own dinner on my birthday, but where does that fall on the line between generosity and materialism? I am still not sure. I have learned some harsh lessons over that last 6 years and it sucks to think how much money I would have if I hadn't spent it on others, but I like to think that my generosity won't be forgotten as I think it might already be with some. I know I sound like a jerk, but I honestly don't care. People reading this obviously know me and if they can't accept the fact that I am someone who would write this then thats tough. I think a lot of people I know have lost their way and seem to think only of themselves; to those I just hope you don't forget the people who have supported you and have believed in you. I know I take my family for granted many times, but I am working on taking every moment I can to thank them and tell them I love them. This may sound clustered but I took two finals today so I am tired. I just thought I would share my thoughts and thanks if you have read this far. If anybody is going to get me anything for Christmas get me an energy efficient light bulb, even though I am not sure if I believe in Jesus, I would like to think that he would want us saving his creation, and getting something that helps not only me but everyone is satisfying.
since the only thing this is used for is putting pictures up, here is Gilbert, the person who exemplifies what I think a human being should be.

So here are the Coachella set times, it sucks cause there are a few bands playing at the same time I want to see. Gogel Bordello and Bjork I both wanted to see. The Good the Bad and the Queen and the Rapture are playing at the same time. Ghostface Killah and The Arcade Fire which Stu told me to see, and sucks to Ratatat I need to get a good spot for Rage. Anyways click and enlarge the days and help me out on who you think I should see, not just with those but with everything!

So I just found out that one of the victims in the VT shooting was a holocaust survivor. I don't know why but that prompted me to write something. My condolences go out to the victims family and friends. The whole campus for that matter I am sure will never be the same. I remember when Sean Branch passed away that I could not believe that someone I graduated with had died. I would be driving and sometimes it would just occur to me that I will never see Sean Branch again. Now 33 families will have to deal with something that I don't even think I can comprehend. I am so thankful for my family and my friends. I try to tell my family members that I love them as much as possible, every time I leave one of them usually. I just wanted to say I love you to all of my friends as well. You all mean so much to me and I know a Livejournal post won't be able to convey how appreciative I am for all of you. I know not many people will read this...guess that is what myspace is for, but if you know someone who can't read this tell them that I love them as well and that you do too, even if you don't! Spread the love I guess is what that means because you never know what could happen in life. I am sad knowing that we are all growing apart and moving, and its highly unlikely what everyone will be able to reunite again even if its just for a quick get together, but I am going to cherish the rest of the time I have with all my friends. All of those VT victims will be in my thoughts as i go to sleep tonight as will my wonderful friends and family. I love you all and thank you.

"So, for the second time, [the Pharisees] summoned the man who had been blind and said: 'Speak the truth before God. We know this fellow is a sinner.' 'Whether or not he is a sinner, I do not know,' the man replied. 'All I know is this: once I was blind and now I can see.'"
