Something I don’t understand about religious iconography, especially with Christianity and crosses: do you really think when your savior comes back for you he will appreciate seeing the torture device he was nailed to and died upon? And you remembering him for that? And just when does it cross over into idolatry?

12 of 12, September 2014 edition

Ponderings, , ,

My 33rd “12 of 12”.

It’s Friday. At least by the calendar it is. I’m not sure what day it actually is.

The 12 of 12 Challenge was created by Chad Darnell and picked up from a number of random bloggers who then linked back to him and vice versa. Chad stopped doing the 12 of 12 links in December of 2011, but passed the torch to someone else who sadly hasn’t been keeping up with it. So as always, I’m giving my shout-out to Blobby of Blobby’s Blog as he is the one who inspired me to do it. And still does.

All pictures were taken with my iPhone 4S. Maybe the last month of that since the new iPhone 6 goes on pre-order today. Maybe.

… but it’s okay.

Ponderings, , , ,

I’ve felt off for the last week or so, and it doesn’t seem to be improving.

I’ve tried putting into words what “off” means, but I seem to be failing at describing it. I just know I don’t feel… like Erik. Actually, since mid-trip to New Orleans for Decadence I haven’t felt quite myself.

And then this song shuffled up tonight as I was sitting there trying to focus.

Maybe I’ll figure it out. And be able to put it in words.

Until next time...
Erik

I am not an alcoholic. They do meetings or something and another.
