Sometimes thinking is the thing that keeps us going but sometimes it is the thing that drags us down to despair that eventually leads to nowhere but sadness.  And what is sadness, but a thing that hinders our ability to see clearly.  Why is it so hard for us to let go of this sadness so that we can see clearly?  Why would we not want to see clearly?  Why is there so much of this sadness in this world?  Why can't we see the effects of our sin,the sadness that it causes for others, the almost unbearable grief, the grief that sends some people to hell wondering where the answers were?  If we could see clearly would we not all the more strive to be perfect.  If we could clearly see the sadness, would we not as christians strive all the more to spread the light and the answers.  Why is it so hard to die to ourselves and live for someone greater.  Someone greater who has done something that we cannot fully comprehend.  Something that we can't see clearly because of our sadness.  Why not let go of the fear?  Why not strive to be perfect?  Why not spread the light?  Why not give hope to a sad world?

Anyway, cool picture.

  1. It's like I have three modes. The first is happy and foolish, the second is sad and thoughtful, and the last is mature (rarely seen by humans). There are a lot more modes than just that but those are the big ones.
