Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.
For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears.
*another version of that ending says- "but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears."
1 Corinthians 14:4-10

The Air Up There
Gorgeous. Breath-taking. Exhilarating. Beautiful. Magnificent. Really there's no great word that describes the air just above the clouds! I don't mean inhaling, I mean the awesome EXHALE you get from God's glory! Unimaginable.

Grasshoppers
Quick insect lesson-
The grasshopper is an insect of the suborder Caelifera. A species that changes color and behavior at high population densities are also called locusts. Destructive to plants and characteristically has long, powerful hind legs adapted for jumping.
*Khrystian Tid-Bit: It's also a cocktail consisting of crème de menthe, crème de cacao, and cream.
Ok, now on to the real!
Grasshoppers are also characterized, by muah, as those individuals that hop from one thing to another as if they have no rhyme or reason...no justification...nor (in some instances) any moral fibers! They hop from job to job, relationship to relationship, city to city or state to state, and (grossly) bed to bed. These said individuals are "finding" themselves. They constantly look for and are trying to discover what "fits".
Change is good! We're not talking about change here- we're talking about those that run around like chickens with their head cut off hopping from one thing (person) to another. The said individuals lack LOYALTY!
Loyalty is that little thing that's coupled with allegiance and devotion! Pick a lane and stay there. Be open to change, but never lack loyalty. It'll take you far! Others can recognize it within you and will in turn be loyal, allegiant, and devoted to you and what you stand for. They'll have your back and have strong desires to uplift you whenever possible!

Queers Chain
Accents, Smack scents! Everyone, including me, always thinks it'll be romantic, sweet, sexy or all of the above to date someone with an accent! Well I'm here to tell you- I was WRONG!! So very wrong!
I couldn't have been more wrong o_O
It's annoying, confusing and most of all frustrating!
Annoying because I hated to hear my own name pronounced wrong and when it was close to correct; it sounded like a strained weezel....Queers Chain! (say it aloud and that's how my name was said!) He ALWAYS began a sentence with my name too. I think he loved my name, or at least saying it...but I hated it! Shut up already (I wanted to scream)!
If you know me, you already know I'd expressed my frustration...in a calmer more sedated version than screaming shut up of course! "Whuds I'm during Queers Chain?" (Oh for the love of all things Vera Wang shut up!)
No amount of handsome could cure the massive headache I'd suffer after a conversation with him either. What should have been quick, concise conversations all ended up turning into a tug-of-war of "huh", "what", "say that again", "repeat that one more time", "wait, slow down", "one more time"! It was exhausting to say the least! At the end of a three minute conversation I was exhausted and ready to call it a night! "Just text it to me!" Yea! That's what I would have said if text messaging was as prevalent then as it is now! (That's it! The TIMING was off!)
Because my patience is a work in progress, my tolerance or I should say, frustration, got the best of us! Queers Chain had to say good-bye, adìos, au revoir, arrivederci, ciao...you get the picture! It was a great memory, but certainly not a relationship built to last! I couldn't understand him...and now that I think about it...he probably couldn't understand me!
Queers Chain has definitely left the building!

Reflect on Purpose *A Poem* Khrystianity
When u look in the mirror do you see what others see?
Can you see the beauty and the mystery?
Or do you see a void?
You stare in your eyes and it seems like white noise...
Take a closer look, don't be confused
Just because you feel betrayed and slightly misused
You have too much to offer
And so much more to conquer
So, look in the mirror and see what others see
Find your inner beauty and novice mystery
In your eyes lies a story that from your lips can only be told
Step outside your comfort zone and watch beauty unfold...
