Who needs a frikkin’ title?
Posted December 4th, 2008 by ZacharyI could yammer on here for a bit, but I’m not really feelin’ it. Instead, I bring to you a visual aid:

Those Eyes
Posted September 30th, 2008 by ZacharyPerhaps it is interesting that it is the glow about her eyes that simultaneously frees my spirit, while binding my tongue.

Graffiti post. Do I have my indie cred yet?
Posted September 10th, 2008 by ZacharyIn my pursuit of wasting time, I have stumbled upon the following interesting works of art that I find interesting:
Moss Graffiti (apparently no moss graffiti artist has a decent camera)
Banksy, Graffiti Artist (more)
Ever since the 2007 Boston bomb scare, I have been slightly interested in the way the public reacts to graffiti artists and guerrilla marketing. Some might say that I have no respect for public property, but quite the opposite: I enjoy works that either improve the appearance of a building, or do not permanently modify it. I have no respect for vandals with no artistic merit.
Edit: Forgot one. The awesome Mario Blocks project.

I’ve become one of those emos… God help us all.
Posted August 20th, 2008 by ZacharyWhy does it seem that lately, for me, the observation of beauty causes pain?
It’s a fact of nature that beauty is often born of pain. Why does the opposite seem to be occurring with an increased frequency?

Random Bits
Posted May 12th, 2008 by Zachary-Guys and Dolls isn’t too bad of a movie if you ignore the choreographed dancing.
-Frank Sinatra can croon like no one’s business, but Marlon Brando beats Sinatra in coolness, hands down.
-I’d like to dress in a black suit, black shirt, white tie sometime.
-I’ve been mulling over the romance and wooing that God does to our Spirits, and how the history of mankind is the best romance/suspense/comedy/drama/fantasy story that could ever possibly be written.
-Regardless of any of the authors intentions, after watching the Golden Compass, I’ve been thinking a lot about how the spirit interacts with our bodies and how our spirits interact with one another.
-The previous two points have combined together in my mind to get me thinking about the wooing and romance between humans. Most of our methods of attraction lie within the physical realm. We do things to produce sensations, hormones, chemicals in the brain. We might even go a step further and do things in which appeal to the mind. We play mind games of suspense to produce excitement, and try to stress areas of our personalities that we think the other person will find mentally stimulating.
I’ve decided to try to learn spiritual romance, and what it looks like. People read books to learn about how to improve their physical and mental romancing. I have a couple books in mind, but I’m not quite sure if they cover what I’m talking about. Even Christian books about love/dating/romance mostly fall in the mental realm. So how else would I learn? I plan to study God, and how He woos us, and I’ve also have asked Him to teach me. Might as well learn from the author, right?

Clive Staples is the man
Posted May 9th, 2008 by ZacharyI just picked up Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis the other day, to read through again. The book is brilliant, but it’s also renewed my love for C.S. Lewis. With the Chronicles of Narnia finally getting outstanding treatment on the big screen (let’s see if they can keep it up), I can only hope that it will attract a few new Lewis readers.

“An open mind catches everything”
Posted May 5th, 2008 by Zachary17 With the Lord’s authority let me say this: Live no longer as the ungodly do, for they are hopelessly confused. 18 Their closed minds are full of darkness; they are far away from the life of God because they have shut their minds and hardened their hearts against him.
–Ephesians 4
I’ve decided to start memorizing scripture, in an effort to actually know what I’m talking about whenever I discuss anything spiritual. More so than that, it is suggested in Psalms 119:11 that memorizing scripture helps to keep us from sinning, and in Hebrews 4:12-13 that scripture is a powerful weapon against Satan. The Word itself is nearly useless unless you reflect upon it and distill its meaning, and go on to apply it to your life (James 1:23-24).
