give 'em some air

You can't hold too close,
for God needs room to shine His light in.
Nary a rip will be painfree,
shredding that which has been intertwined.
But remember to guide with love.

Cheers, Summer '10. Cheers.

Glorify

To unveil a majesty that could not be seen before AND/OR To bring joy to God.

I love finding deeper meanings of cliched English words.

Subtle Racism

Call it harmless stereotyping if you want, but the roots of racism are still alive and kicking in the US of A.

Ex. 1: At Capital Seafood Express this past week, my Caucasian looking friend and I both bought two item combos. Upon sitting down, he incredulously realized that they had not given him chopsticks. Half laughing, half shaking my head, I reached into my bag to find chopsticks that I didn't mind giving him to use. However, upon further groping around the bag, I realized that they hadn't given me a fork. My friend gave me his, and the reverse stereotype was complete.

Ex. 2: "Hey David, you're good at computers right?! Can you help me fix this?"

Ex. 3: "Hey David, can you solve this rubik's cube for me?"

Sigh.
