My theory for how long a day appears to be seems to be right. Ever since ShaoXiong messaged me to go Gelare tonight, time has been slowed to a standstill. Maybe also because Chris isn't here today. I wonder what happened to her.Been trying to finish minor changes to the website, but I keep getting distracted. I think I should be done now.

Lynette made me think a lot yesterday. About humans being selfish creatures. I agree with her on that. But she said something about how we should be totally submissive. I agree again with her on this. We should! The world will be a better place if we all were more selfless.
This is me reasoning with myself. I'm not sure if I'm right about this. Don't quote me.
My question is, is desire so wrong? How do you stop desire? Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying its impossible. Its just that I can't get my mind around it. Why would God give us the ability to desire and then ask us to give it all up? Or maybe it isn't giving it all up. Maybe its giving God your desires. Is it the same thing? Something else for me to learn when I figure it out.

Another day, another emotion. But its nothing I haven't felt before.
And I remember what you said and I remember how you said goodbye.
So I'll stay silent and quiet and I'll wait for my reward.

So this story stays open ended.
I rather you closed me off, but you left me hanging.
So I won't stay here and stay tempted
You know I try, You know I try!!!
