Art

I'm an artist. I draw pictures with words.

Sometimes the pictures are beautiful, sometimes they are dark, depressing, and ugly.

Art. Sometimes pretty. Sometimes sad. Utterly enjoyable.

Pain

Why cause more pain? She is hurting enough already.
Why make her suffer even more? Don't you know how much she has gone through?
Why twist your words and actions like angry knives to hurt her? She has done nothing to you.

Why cause more pain? Aren't there enough people hurting in this world already? Haven't we comforted enough broken hearts and weary souls? How many more will I watch you tear to shreds with your cruel words? How many more must I put together after you have gone on your destructive rampages?

Sadness

The smile fades. No longer any reason to force it. Then the truth shows. Beyond the happiness there is a perpetual sadness. It won't go away.

Some call it "moodswings." But it goes deeper than such a simple term. The sadness is always there, merely covered up from time to time by a moment of happiness. The happiness and smiles never last long. The sadness is remembered. The smile fades. The truth shows.

Injustice

Injustice. It makes my blood boil. Why?

Because I know how it feels to be on the wrong end of injustice.

Too many times. Way too many.

So always remember.. you mess with me, don't worry.. at least, don't worry as long as you don't mind my thoughts of you turning cold and guarded.

Mess with those I love? Mess with the helpless? Mess with the innocent?

Trust me.. don't. Bad things happen to those who support injustice.

Don't say I care too much. On the contrary, you care too little. even the little injustices count, because someone who is capable of being unjust in the small things will be unjust in the big things, too.

Naked

"And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed."
~Genesis 2:25

Now, there's an interesting verse for God to put in the Bible. Why?

The man and his wife were NAKED and UNASHAMED. Perhaps you have heard numerous reasons why people put up facades. The main reason is that they don't want to feel naked by showing the world their true selves. But the man and his wife were naked.. and unashamed.

God meant for us to live naked lives. Sin gave us something to hide. But someday, I hope, the Lord will give each person someone with whom we can be naked. Someone who can see our true selves and not make us ashamed.
