#the purpose of life

[tabernacleheart]

The word for sin is hamartia, which originally had to do with shooting and literally means a missing of the target. The man who refuses to accept Jesus as Saviour and Lord has missed the target in life. He dies with life unrealized; and he therefore dies unfitted to enter into the higher life with God. 

William Barclay

The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.

The Beauty and Freedom of Nihilism

The Beauty and Freedom of Nihilism

Nihilism gets a bad rap, people look down on it, Nihilists are either portrayed as depressed, violent, or teenagers going through a goth or metal phase. When nihilism is portrayed it is always as life being absolutely meaningless, purposeless, and pointless. Nihilism is so much more than what it is portrayed, it has deep philosophical roots and it is not depressing, it can even give life more…

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

#yeehaw #1k #5k #10k #posts that got cursed. blasted. im making these tag updates after... 19 hours? #also i have been told it should say speech loss bc nonverbal specifically refers to the permanent state. did not know that! #unfortunately i fear it is so far past containment that even if i edited it now it would do very little. but noted for future reference #edit 2: nvm enough ppl have come to rb it from me directly that i changed the wording a bit. hopefully this makes sense #also. in case anyone is curious. though i doubt anyone who is commenting these things will check the original tags #1) my friend did not do this on purpose in any way. it was not intended to distract me or to hit on me. im a lesbian hes a gay man. cmon now #he felt very bad about it afterwards. i thought it was hilarious but it was very embarrassed and apologetic #2) “why didn't he use 🫵🏼?” didn't exist yet. “why didn't he use 🆗?” dunno! we'd been using a lot of hand emojis. 👌🏼 is an ok sign #like it makes sense. it was just a silly mixup. also No i did not invent 👉🏼👌🏼 as a gesture meaning sex. do you live under a rock #3) nonspeaking episodes are a recurring thing in my life and have been since i was born. this is not a quirky one-time thing #it is a pervasive issue that is very frustrating to both myself and the people i am trying to communicate with. in which trying to speak is #extremely distressing and causes very genuine anguish. this post is not me making light of it it's just a funny thing that happened once #it's no different than if i post about a funny thing that happened in conjunction w a physical disability. it's just me talking abt my life #i don't mind character tags tho. those can be entertaining. i don't know what any of you are talking about #Except the ppl who have said this is pego/ryu or wang/xian. those people i understand and respect #if you use it as a writing prompt that's fine but send it to me. i want to see it #aaaand i think that's it. everyday im tempted to turn off rbs on it. it hasn't even been a week

The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience. - Eleanor Roosevelt

i say if you’re gonna have the mysterious entities speak in rhyme you might as well commit (EDIT: part 2!)

(posting an unprecedented Part 1 of At Least 3 bc i actually have the entire script and most of the storyboarding for this done already)

#yknow. got an idea. had a breakdown. bon appetit #this was the creative impulse i was referring to on sunday #my art #secret life #secret life spoilers #slsmp #grian #geminitay #briefly #trafficblr #also #mostly bc i am proud of it and partly bc i want people to know it’s on purpose: #grian is not trying to rhyme at all in this part. he is being deliberately unhelpful #he lowkey tries to fuck it up on purpose in that second to last panel but the secret keepers just switch rhyme schemes #the one time he completes an end rhyme is because he lost his temper #anyway yeah this was motivated mostly by me wanting to see if i could do it

The salvation of souls is so critical that it must always be in our plane of view. All of the Ten Commandments, all laws, dogma, doctrine, and discipline are directed towards this end. The salvation of souls is our ‘telos’, our ultimate goal; and all other goals are subservient towards this end. If we fail this decisive and most important goal then all other goals, no matter how noble, become almost irrelevant. [Even so,] I cannot directly save my own soul, much less the soul of another. However, I certainly can lead others toward salvation or, for that matter, away from salvation. Every interaction, in one way or another, to one degree, can lead souls either toward God or away from God. Are we complacent when a poor soul is obstinate in his sin or do we lovingly correct him and pray for him? Do we counsel the doubtful or do we reinforce their disbelief? Our evangelization, whether it be direct or relational, should edify and sanctify those we meet.

Thinking about Lamb being repeatedly forced to bow over the force of the game despite this sort of. charging behavior being a show of aggression in sheep/goats --> Being forcefully dragged into a life of violence

#hoof draws #cotl #idk something something . #'kill or be killed' but you never should have had to be in that life #-and the lamb ironically fulfilling their purpose as a sacrifice by killing the lamb they used to be-- #and doing whatever dirty work they need to do so thst the flock doesnt have yo
