11 Hours ..
Hmm the only thing that concerned me, at the end of my 11 hour shift was ....
"Muslims can't eat skittles if really religious"
Say what --!!? That really sucks. They can't have anything that contains gelatin, if 'really religious' And so I asked my co-worker, so what makes you really religious and what not? By all the practices and rituals ... hmm ok ...why be religious? So you can get to heaven. So what determines your level of religiousness? Is there a guarantee that you'll get to heaven? His answer: "No."
That kinda sucks, not knowing if you've done enough to be accepted. How religious can you get? I would think it'd be endless stress and worry ....... and to think people concentrate on the 'doing' so much, there is no relationship.
Glad I don't have to go through that!
Also, when I get home, I turn on the TV, and there's this special feature from Barbara Walters ... on "Heaven: Where is it?" It was actually REALLY good. She went to almost all religions or spiritual people and asked around ...
Anyone else see it?
Stupidest Ad ever ...
I saw an Ad today with illustrated people in wonderful winter coats and scarfs galore and such. The Ad said, "What do you get people who has everything?"
And answer was:
"More of it!" - Get a gift certificate from Marlbourough Mall today .... blah blah blah.
HOW horrible! Yikes ... more of what they have already? That's just trash to me, yikes, that's just incredibly bothering. And if anything, Marlbourough Mall? Great attempt to get more shoppers ... *sarcasm* What is there even to buy?? yikes ... ! Hmm the great contrasts of 'giving' hmm ..
People these days, WHEN can they realize, that the more they recieve of what they WANT ... is an endless list, and they will NEVER be satisfied ... always wanting more and more.
My wish this Christmas, is for people to not look at the materialistic things, but more the thought, the heart, and the things that are more important, especially the REAL reason for the season. Baby Jesus, who came into this world to give the most precious and the only gift people need - salvation and life.
Give someone the gift of knowing Jesus these holidays, I encourage you!
Am I ...
doing the right thing here? Now how I really wish it wasn't 'me' as the base of this question in 'doing' something, because I've got the harsh lesson from this whole past two years in the horrible mistake of 'me' 'doing'. But why can't I sit back? Why can't I withdraw myself?
It's just something that really draws me in, to the mysterious. I can count of hmmm maybe 4 or 5 cases? Do I really have experience from all those, or is that not comparable at all, because each is really different? I dunno .. *sigh* I really need to wait on good wisdom and discernment. I think today was the last straw though. Holy moly, wayyyy too short of time. What was I thinking. But I hope the affect was only for good.
I don't want mixed feelings, I don't want to play games, I don't want presumptions again. But I do care, really do care. Hope is waiting around the corner ...
On the side note, I GOT MY MUTEMATH CD!! I AM SO EXCITED TO OWN THIS! harhar. and it was only a sweet $9.99. I was even tempted to a second one too. Now why? No clue! Maybe I should gift it to someone ... who would enjoy this great music as well. I am still waiting for Shawn MacDonald ...
And stupid double mean angles, screwing me over for my Surveying exam. They are too mean to me. Mean mean mean. hmm ... where has my brain gone ..
(( perhaps this is what happens, when I am distracted, ... ohhh shoot! ))
WHAT THE - ?
What in the world ?!?!!?
http://cbs5.com/topstories/local_story_326014939.htmlSupposedly, from watching the video, the guy who does maitenance on the church saw the tears rolling down her face 8:30am in the morning, and when he went to go touch the streams of , they were still wet!!?
That's a little freaky.
But no offense, what's even more freaky is just seeing how much these people worship Mary ... hmmm. Like an idol, really.
Hey, I remember posting something else about "Mary" in some one of my early early blog post about white shadow stains? what's up with all this?!
Stealing is NOT cool.
So ... at my store today, at the mall, some guy stole our display boots. What happened was, there wasn't actually anyone present on the floor ((partially our fault)) because one was on break, I was in the back unpacking a delivery and my manager was helping out two customers.
It was our fur boots, two black ones that was side by side. We think that the dude thought they were a full pair - but actually, they were TWO left feet, as all our shoes only have one side out ((as all shoe stores do)) so ... my manager went to the back twice. The first time coming back out, she saw the two display boots on the floor, near the front at the corner of the becnh ... and so she thought some customer had just looked at them and walked away. She went back to get another size, and when my manager was fetching this guy his size for the shoes, he told the other customer in the store that he'd be right back. My manager came out, he was gone, boots were gone ... and the customer said she saw nothing ((and quickly left .. hmm..))
Amazingly, the guy DID come back ... I guess to check his bank or something ((but then the banks close at 4pm and this all happened at 5... and my manager just simply asked, "Hey do you happen to see some boots on the ground while you were here? Now they are gone." And the guy got all defensive and said, "What, are you accusing me now?" ((but then, my manager didn't even PUT it in an accusive way! ... so that was kinda obvious)) and then he asked how much his shoes that he wanted would cost with tax .. then he stepped out saying he'd return again ... hmmm
Whatever it is ... it was all quite well planned. And for the guy to have guts to come back too, to look less suspicious I guess. He had this bright orange jacket on, very baggy. *sigh* well nothing we can do about it now, because we couldn't accuse unless we saw him steal with our own eyes.
"Well whoever took them can't go very far, with two left feet."
