QQ IV

Some jokes are not funny, at least the ones I say.

I noticed nobody argues with a compliment that they agree with.

What separates normal folks from those that are deemed intelligent, I've come to believe it's that the intelligent folks take more pride in the moniker "intelligent."

In moments when you feel as if you're alone with God, there is nothing that you can hide from him. He seems to know it anyway, he just wants us to trust him with it. Easier said than done. I'd have to know him to trust him, I don't think I know him as much as I know of him.

The funniest thing about secrets is that there is always somebody that knows them.

Is it truly prudent to adhere to the code of avoiding friends and ex's friends when dating or wanting to date?

Does having faith mean that you're willing to wait for what you're praying for, or as Christopher Nolan penned in The Dark Knight's character Harvey Dent, are we to make our own luck?

Television tells us that the lives of the rich, the affluent, and the wealthy are more enjoyable than those who are not. Even though the shows are manipulated and produced for drama, it's rare for people to laugh. I wonder why?

I miss watching episodes of the Cosby Show. My family used to be like that. One day mine will be. I hope.

I've decided not to commit anymore hope to the hope that I'm going to be noticed.

I believe dreams are only as valuable as the work you're willing to put in to attain them.

I often feel like I don't have anyone to talk to. I feel honored to be trusted to hear the situations my friends are dealing with, I wonder if they're as interested in me?

Living a life without purpose, is not living.

In case you haven't noticed, I want to be a writer. I'm in the process of figuring out what I want to say.

I'm in love with the possibilities living offers, I feel sorry for those who don't enjoy their life.

Barack Obama or John McCain - it doesn't seem like a difficult choice for me.

Money has taken priority over having an opinion. It seems there's a price to pay if you have the "wrong" one - no matter who you associate with.

I love reading comic books, playing the guitar, and walking. Sometimes, in walks alone, the moon shines bright enough for me to know that there is light in darkness. Is that what Christians are suppossed to be? How do other religions view their place in the world?

Who's right (e.g. politics, religion, morality)?

I'm going to take a moment to run my thoughts through a strainer - doing so will mean I may be out of reach for some.

I've spent so much time playing it safe, that I've forgotten what it means to live on the other side.

There is talking about something and there is action. Did you notice that people who love what they do, do it. It is in the doing that you find out they love. Other may be fond of something, talking about it incessently, but they're never caught doing it.

I feel like I'm in a race with my past. I want to win at everything I've lost and win so I don't have to deal with anymore loss. A bit idealistic if you ask me, success is learning from loss and looking at winning as an application of the lessons that were learned along the way.

Over the last two weekends my friends threw surprise parties for their spouses. They each (i.e. the wives) looked at their husbands with gratitude for being loved. The ones of us, who aren't in that situation, relished the opportunity to participate in their happiness, but it wasn't long until we wished for the same for ourselves. The funniest thing I find about it all is that the only difference between me and them is that they aren't living in fear of letting their hearts be known. Who of us are?

Indecision is often met with scorn - I don't think that it should be. The perceived indecision may be, truly may be that person's value in the right decision.

I like making people laugh, I love it even more when people make me laugh.

Whining is so much easier than doing something about what led to the whining in the first place.

How much value should be placed in a lesson taught, if the teacher doesn't apply them themselves. It's like having a fat personal trainer..."How much value should I put in their recommendations for health, when they didn't even believe in them enough to practice it themselves?"

I'm tired of gross out movies, they're not really funny - just...well, gross.
