When is it Right to be Selfish?

Who Said That?

 This is a question which most people will easily answer with a big Never. but time and time again, I have been in a position where the appropriate thing to do would be to be selfish. Simple.
 Some people who know me when I was younger will tell you that I was actually a selfish little boy, and I'll testify to that. I actually was very much selfish, and I knew it. But at one point, I decided to be more liberal and selfless. Since then (By God's grace) I've actually been more of a giver than I use to be.
But the only time when I will ever be selfish again is if the recipient of my selfishness is proving to be foolish, careless, and unnecessarily selfish. Some people take your liberal attitude as foolishness, weakness, and a sign of Immaturity. They'll keep everything they have away from you, while expecting you to hand everything you own over to them, even when they don't deserve to have it. And whenever you ask for their contribution to a joint venture, they'll make an excuse, and give you a justification for their selfishness. Under such circumstances, I'll advise you be selfish to such selfishness.
 Another instance where I'll recommend selfishness is when someone uses your generosity as a front for laziness. Because of your hard-working nature, your sense of dutifulness, and your willingness to share, some people will chose not to work and practically live off your labor. They'll sit around all day, expecting you to bring in all you have, while they sit on their ass and wholeheartedly help you to feed off your labor. In such instances, I recommend you go into full selfishness mode.
 Finally, and most people will call me a selfish guy for this. when everybody is being graciously generous over a trivial issue, Then I recommend you can get a little bit selfish. I'm talking about those awkward moments when there is only a little amount of groundnut, or other food item left in the plate, and everyone is like "You take it, I'm filled." and then everyone is politely, charismatically, courteously leave the last piece of food item in the plate. I'll gladly pick it up and eat it. Let's forget about "big boyism" or ego, or "whatever". Let's eat and get our belly filled. Pick the last stuff left, satisfy yourself, forget about what others will think or say. And leave there.
 In summary, it is sometimes necessary to be selfish, and I'll advice you listen to all sides of a story before passing your judgement.

An Empty Head, And An Empty Mind.

Blank Mind

 Over the last couple of weeks, I've been feeling awkwardly lazy. My normal Self (or as I hope I am) is a hard working, creative minded person. But recently, the creative aspect has been functioning, but my body as been reluctant to complete the creative process.
 For over Five years now, I've always had about 20 to 50 different ideas at different stages on my mind. From conceptual, to processing, to outputting (writing, or recording). It has always been difficult for me to lay down whatever is on my mind, as ideas were just boundless, ever-developing, and getting better everyday.
 I had always managed to discipline myself to bring out whatever I might be working on, because if I didn't bring out what I was working on mentally, I would find it difficult to work on other stuffs.
 But recently, things have just been crazy, I still conceptualize and nurture stuffs in my mind, but outputting these stuffs have virtually been impossible. And this is a very big problem for me, as my mind is constantly in a state of disorganization. If my mind was actually visible, it will look like a work-table where everything is messed up, and nothing is sort out. Or a one of those highly networked fiber-optic layer of multi-crossed cables, which are just spun into one another, and cannot be separated from each other.
 Simply put my mind is a mess, because my body is lazy. or should I say "The spirit is Willing, but the body is weak". I actually wish there was a technology that I could just hook myself to, and it would just bring up everything in my mind, in a orderly manner that will be easily understandable.
 I hope I'll get some of this stuff sorted out, discipline myself to work harder, and free up my mind, else my life could get real worse. (It actually affects my mood).
Or maybe if I get a

My Easter Experience

Where was I on Easter Day? I was at My Church's Camp.

 For those who do not already know, I am a member of the Deeper Life Bible Church, That means a lot of things, and holds a lot of benefits for me (More on that some other times). But it also means since I was born, I hardly ever spent a Christmas or Easter Day at home. I am always at the National Retreat. (or Camp as some people will rather call it).
 When I was younger, this made me constantly jealous of the other kids who were always celebrating these festive periods at home, and will make me green with jealousy with their tale of the experience festivities of the season, but as I got older, I began to realize that I was actually enjoying the benefit of investing in myself spiritually, mentally, educationally, socially and otherwise during these retreats, learning things I could never have learned elsewhere, and meeting people who changed my life forever.
 This made me have a change of perspective for these Church Retreats, and made me actually look forward to them twice every year, so far so good, I've never regretted being a part of this wonderful experience.
 I've decided to share with you all what I learned at this year's Deeper Life Easter Retreat, over the next couple of days, I'll share this on a new blog I'll be opening for this purpose.
 I also intend to share with you lessons I learn and notes I take from lectures, books, movies and events on this new blog.
 I intend to make the blog majorly for tips, facts, news, advice, pictures, and jokes.
 Hopefully, it should be up and running by the start of next week. I'll inform you as soon as it is done.
 I love You all, God Bless You All.

Conquer Your Fears.

We look at the same thing, but see different things, You see a guy walking in a high-rise building with the sky in his background. I see a guy, facing his fears, walking in the sky, and being Himself.
IF You're told you can't walk amidst the skies, just close your eyes and imagine yourself doing it and it's done.
