Heliotropium - Counting our Injustices as Blessings

I'm reading Heliotropium - Conformity Of The Human Will To The Divine by Father Jeremias Drexelius. I would highly suggest it to any Christian or anyone interested in Christian phylosophy. It's a very heavy read. I just read a chapter discussing how we should view others injustice towards us as blessings. In all things we should look to God for nothing happens but through him. If someone does some great evil to us, it is permitted by God himself only because He knows a greater good will come of it. What reason do we have to complain about an event that Our Lord Permitted? Interesting...

Reality Checks

The past few weeks have been a time for numerous reality checks. On the down side, it's stressful, depressing, and down right difficult to face myself and realize that I was wrong, about many things. On the upside I'm stronger, healthier, and richer now than I was only two weeks ago, and I take comfort in the fact that I am not too far from the path I'm supposed to be on. It's going to take some buckeling down on a lot of the facets of my life that I really don't enjoy working on, but that's life. So as you float through life, make sure that your sails are out so that you can catch any of life's many breezes. Life's about opportunity, don't let one pass you by because you weren't ready for it.
