As He is Pure

Still my "I'm too awesome" song

Snakebite on chastity:

The first principle is always: Dim the Lights!  Keep his mind darkened.  Those stupid vermin will dance like fleas around issues of sexual morality, complexifying the simplest questions and rationalizing their answers with incredible dexterity – all because we keep their mind off the first and simplest truth: that the Enemy has written the world's simplest sex manual for them, with only two commands in it.  First, "be fruitful and multiply".  Sex is His invention.  Second, "thou shalt not commit adultery".  No sex outside marriage, before or after.  In it, the more, the merrier.
When he thinks of his own desires, due to the work of our agents, he, like most Americans, confuses his "needs" with his "wants" and thus is convinced that his great sexual wants equal great sexual needs.  Of course this is nonsense; he has water needs but not sex needs.  He'd die without water, but not without sex.  But he doesn't want to notice that fact.

"I wanna be your last first kiss"

1 John 3:2-3

Beloved, we are God's children now; what we shall be has not yet been revealed.  We do know that when it is revealed, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.  Everyone who has this hope based on him makes himself pure, as he is pure.

Annie Lennox

 beautiful lyrics in this song

"What do you see on the horizon?"
"The ships have come to carry you home."

Emiliana Torrini


"We can never go home."

Adam Lambert

very sad and moving lyrics

"No one wants to dig that deep."
"A red river of screams – underneath – tears in my eyes – underneath – stars in my black and blue sky – underneath – under my skin – underneath – the depths of my sin – Look at me – Now do you see?"

Freeing Yourself From Anxiety: The Four-Step Plan to Overcome Worry and Create the Life You Want – by Tamar E. Chansky, PhD

Choose the voice of your internal [emotional] GPS.  It could be someone you know, like a trusted friend or adviser, or someone you don't know, like a celebrity or character from a film or novel.  Picture in your mind that person calmly or comically letting you know that you can "turn around as soon as possible," reminding you that it's okay to get back on your track and not get detoured farther by that emotional wrong turn.  Write it on a sign to stick over your workstation or desk.  The more you remember that turning around is an option, and a good one, the sooner you'll take advantage of it.
