CO

Colorado is the most beautiful place in the world...i stand by that. I went out to CO to see some people who i think are amazing, and sure enough they were great, and we had an amazing time. Its so funny that i only spent 8 months out there, and yet i would say i have the best community there, Community that has seriously impacted who i am, and what i want from life.

I got back from CO late last night, and i woke up this morning to go home...and my car is broken. Normally i would have been pissed, but nope i stayed pretty chill throughout a whole day of trying to find someone to tow my car. Although this series of events would be worthy of a funny blog, I'll stick to the thought process.

Its so easy to remember what life is about whenever i come home from Colorado. I had a horse, i saw bears, i hiked mountains, I made life long friends. That is life...So when my car breaks in Boston and i have very few people to hang out with...it doesn't seem so bad because i feel like its so insignificant to the good stuff. I think i should go out there often, or maybe ill just have to go for good.

Why are blogs so corny some times? Boo that...

How do u catch a polar bear?

You cut a hole in the ice, and line the hole with peas. When the Polar bear goes up to take a pea you kick him in the Icehole....

Not Today Rob bell

So i was talking about Rob bell the other day with one of my friends, i realized that i, like many people can trust a complete stranger and come to a point where i do not question what they say.

I like Rob bell. I think hes great, i've read velvet elvis and i own alot of his nommas. But there is this one nooma i hate, Dust. If u get a chance u should watch it, cause honestly i think its a load of crap, and i have seen first hand how its message can misunderstood on non believers. But the point is not to bash Rob bell, but instead how i have managed to return to a place where im pretty much willing to believe what ever he says, for no reason....and i think this kind of attitude seeps into other parts of life.

I was sitting in class, and my professor was talking about the death penalty and why its so bad. I'm against the deah penalty, but i took what this guy said without question, and he admitted his bias, then taught a slated class without being challenged.

I just read Helter Skelter, its about the Manson murders and a huge focus was on how he was able to manipulate people to kill for him, including college educated people. My reasoning, they were weak, lonely and or stupid. Not that i feel i could be taken into a cult, or that i think many people would, but i think we all have areas of our life that we buy into things without question, this was exemplified in how i feel about R bell. I believed everything this guy said without question, well NO MAS MR ROB BELL!
