Late last Wednesday I went to church to attend mass with my friend and co-worker, I was tired but of course I still had the energy to stay awake. Besides I don't have anything to do after. It was the 23rd week o f the ordinary time (if you went to a Catholic school you know what i mean) and the First reading struck as hard as a speeding football in my head. It was of course my favorite verse in the bible, or let's say, chapter. It was from Paul's letter to the Corinthians.
1 Corinthians 13
1. If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2. If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and knowledge; and If I have faith, so as to move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3. And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned, but do not have love, it profits me nothing.
4. Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not ignorant,
5. does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered,
6. does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices in the truth;
7. bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things
8. Love never fails;
but if there are gifts of prophecy, they will be done away; if ther are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be done away. 9. For we know in partand we prophecy in part; 10. but when the percet comes the partial will be done away. 11. when I was a child I used to speak as a child, think like a child, reason like a child; when i became a man, I did away with childish things. 12. For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I will now just as I also have fully known.
13. But now faith, hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love.
If you just take time to read that little thing scrolling across that lowest part of my blog, you'd notice that i promised I'd start living. I'll stop thinking. I'll stop all that shit Gaia and I shared. I love G with all my heart even if I am not supposed to, she had become a friend I could (and had) lean on. But life goes on. I cannot stay in this spot for long. I just can't and will not. Okay, my head is starting to spin. I'll be back sooner.
