Maybe it's because I'm reading it while in a fairly Christ-centered frame of mind, but I actually found it very comforting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6803135128442396638.post-13327532769952489412009-01-13T12:24:00.000-06:002009-01-13T12:24:00.000-06:00@big manLOL!

Once you're out of the Matrix, there is no way you can every return.<BR/><BR/>Damn, that was pretty nerdy.Big Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02510881583909431416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6803135128442396638.post-43672870176161211852009-01-13T09:54:00.000-06:002009-01-13T09:54:00.000-06:00Damn. This is so true. Damn, damn, damn. But, what...Damn. This is so true. Damn, damn, damn. But, what's the alternative? To assimiliate? I can't help but not seek truth, and the more you seek truth the more angry you become that others aren't seeking truth too.<BR/><BR/>I am a better person for seeking truth. But yes, I am a lonely person. In my "quest" I have lost friends who got angry at me for telling them truth, or I have gotten angry at their indifference to truth. I have a feeling that will be a trend throughout my life. But what's to be done? Once you know truth you can't go back. You see people and the world different forever. <BR/><BR/>In the end though, I don't want to go back. If I have to sacrifice a few friends to fight injustice, so what? People of color have had to sacrifce more, much more. <BR/><BR/>This is just a great post. Thank you for writing it.Lorrainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08188255846229498429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6803135128442396638.post-50767596579127091782009-01-13T08:12:00.000-06:002009-01-13T08:12:00.000-06:00“One of the most difficult things in life is to tr...<I>“One of the most difficult things in life is to truly see the world from a different perspective. It's a constant challenge and trial. And, unfortunately, there is no tangible reward once you develop the habit. There is no pot of gold, no magical angel wings. Instead, you'll just find other people's lack of empathy troubling and you will be less able to assimilate into society. Sure, you might feel better about your development as a human being, but that's a cold comfort indeed.”</I><BR/><BR/><B>That is the truest statement I have read in a long time.</B>Cliftonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03389032037779987856noreply@blogger.com
