"I, Bertolt Brecht, was born in difficult times." But you, who will survive the tide in which we perished, remember that also hatred against lowliness hardens the features, that also anger against injustice makes the voice grow. We who wanted to prepare the way for goodness could not be kind, but you who will live at the moment when man will be a friend of man, try to remember us with indulgence. "

Bertolt Brecht (1898-1956)

Excerpt from his poem "To the future men".

Pray, even if everything seems difficult

You Are The Key To Everything

March 26th, 2024

Whatever it is that causes you pain, blesses you. If all you can see is darkness, find the light. Seek for it. I’m sure there will be other people who will help you in finding it. People who want what is best for you when you’re going through difficult times in your life.

Failure is the key to having a meaningful and successful life. With failure you will develop qualities in you that are not present yet and you will gain these qualities. They will be more developed as time goes by. All successful people had failures and these failures didn’t hinder them from achieving their goals. They became their stepping stones to reach their dreams.

When you are anxious or worried, be patient. Learn to wait… For everything. Patience is a virtue and having patience leads to a happy and contented life.

You are the key to everything that will open a new perspective. One that you haven’t seen that will make your life worth living.

Always remember that in every step you take, God is walking beside you. When all else fails, God will never leave you. He will always have your back. Keep your faith in Him and always walk with faith in God. I’m ending this article with a quote I’ve read on Pinterest: “And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm is all about. ~ Haruki Murakami”.

Prayer for Deliverance from Enemies

To the leader. A Psalm of David.

1 How long, O Lord? Will you forget me for ever? How long will you hide your face from me? 2 How long must I bear pain in my soul, and have sorrow in my heart all day long? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?

3 Consider and answer me, O Lord my God! Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep the sleep of death, 4 and my enemy will say, ‘I have prevailed’; my foes will rejoice because I am shaken.

5 But I trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation. 6 I will sing to the Lord, because he has dealt bountifully with me. — Psalm 13 | New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised (NRSVA) New Revised Standard Version Bible: Anglicised Edition, copyright © 1989, 1995 the Division of Christian Education of the National Council of the Churches of Christ in the United States of America.

our eyes meet again

My mind is bigger than my body. My flesh and bones hold nothing to the size and shape of my conscience. I hold no connection, emotionally or physically, to the feeble animal that I see in the mirror. I am so unlike myself, and it is so maddening. I want to rip my soul out of this body that isn’t mine, and then burn it. I want to build a new me, cell by cell, gene by gene, or perhaps I just want my soul to be free, to be able to fly untethered to the mortal realm. Perhaps I don’t know what I want, but it’s certainly not this. Anything but this.

Oh how much I hate life right now. Jikkrs are bragging coz they really do have the right to brag. Here we are crying over tae's hair and they are getting so much before enlistment. I don't have any hope that jk would even be back before tae goes for ms

Hi there,

We don't know when Tae is enlisting. We don't have a date. He's cutting his hair in preparation, is all. They're bragging because they think they won or have proven something. Which they haven't! It's such a tricky time at the moment. Everything is happening at once. Maybe this is a good time to step away and kind of ween ourselves away from social media and even away from BTS content. In a month or so, we won't be getting anything. I think it's a good idea to prepare ourselves for that and it'll be our new normal for a while.

Let's just breathe and remember that sometimes we're too invested in other people's lives. These are strangers to us, after all. Let's just step away and breathe.

Feel better and know that life goes on outside of BTS 🙂

Peter: Edmund is taking some antibiotics and one of the possible side effects is hyperactivity...

Peter: Please pray for me during this difficult time.

My fellow believers, when it seems as though you are facing nothing but difficulties, see it as an invaluable opportunity to experience the greatest joy that you can! For you know that when your faith is tested it stirs up in you the power of endurance. And then as your endurance grows even stronger, it will release perfection into every part of your being until there is nothing missing and nothing lacking.

- James (Jacob) 1:2-4 TPT

storytime: last night around 2am i felt i was truly experiencing a joel mchale content drought so i googled some gifs for fun to find this one specific one that’s my favorite.

while looking, i found one that was from when he guest starred in the Hulu show ‘Difficult Times.’ i had zero clue what the show was about, but i opened hulu and skipped to this episode to just get some sexy joel- you know how it is.

anyway, i’m skipping all the scenes that he’s not in and i’m completely confused but it doesn’t matter because i’m watching for the man not the plot. so, i was enjoying these scenes of him being a sexy personal trainer and the scenes were kinda weird but i figured it’s a comedy so i shouldn’t expect otherwise.

anywho, i get to the last scene and he’s at a theatrical showing of the musical ‘cats’ with who i assume is the main guy (played by billy eichner), and they get kicked out. when they get to the lobby a ton of cops come barging in, yelling, and pointing their guns at him. i am thrown out of my half-asleep stupor because of the sudden burst of action and in a VERY jeff winger fashion, joel’s character steps forward and is like “guys, let me take care of this,” or something and i was like yaass this is jeff winger core

BUT THEN… he starts RUNNING through the cops and everyone is like ???? wtf is going on?? and he gets tackled. the main character asks why his personal trainer was just attacked and THE COPS ARE LIKE: “he’s a CANNIBAL.”

i was so utterly shocked you guys it was crazy. remember this was 2am lol but even if it wasn’t i would’ve been shocked af. the cops said that there’s a group of cannibals that pose as personal trainers and then eat their victims and joel’s character is giving this speech about how he’s a cannibal as he’s being dragged out the doors and it was insane. was totally not expecting it and it was absolutely jaw dropping to experience at 2am when i just had been looking for some sexy joel content and then it ended up his character was a cannibal.

just wanted to share LMAO
