Two quotes i liked this week: someone asked me today what my favorite quotes, i came across, from this week were. I write down what friend’s say weekly when it feels true. Perhaps mine were two intense, but these were them…

  “Spirituality is the most basic human need, for it determines- identity, purpose and the power to live out your vocation with meaning. It determines how we interpret and live out the three basic human questions: who am I, what am I doing here, and how can I be empowered to live it out. So choose your spirituality with care and consideration.”

The other I liked from a local friend:

   “We need to make basic practical statements like: I won’t look at pornography, because, among other things, it corrupts my vision of Reality, and de-dignifies both genders-regardless of if I’m a woman or man; i won’t treat someone like an object for my momentary needs;  i won’t treat another person as if they were just their job or color, i won’t “it” them (race or gender) into my box; I won’t view my own worth based on what I have, or appear to have—these statements and this mentality,must become common among those who follow Christ.”

  I’m always shocked, in a good way, when friends share the truths they’ve learned so far. Challenges me to be a better person.
