GBU? Hmmmmm.... It just occurred to me this afternoon, after reading some old blogs, that if the worst thing one can complain about me is my tradition of closing with "GBU", then that fact implies the necessary existence of a couple logical deductions: #1, Obviously you are really desperate to find something with which to complain about me. (Beyond that fact, I can venture no certain further insight about you. However, I must say that I'm disappointed. The truth is, were you not blinded by some desperate personal grudge and/or raging hate, then you could do much better than that trivial complaint. More on that in a moment.) #2, (Here it gets dicey) Further, that failure on your part might lead people to deduce that I must be an EXCEPTIONALLY GOOD person! (See the obvious problem???!!! Come on! Give me a break! You can do MUCH better than that! You, and everyone else who knows me, is aware that I am OFTEN a real JERK! We are ALL jerks sometimes, and I'm one much more often than most other people! Sometimes I'm obnoxious. Sometimes I'm lazy. Sometimes I'm a slob. Sometimes I'm inconsiderate. Sometimes I jaywalk and litter. Sometimes I've fantasized about killing people. Sometimes I care about my faults. More often I don't. Like every other mortal, I sin enough for God to condemn me before I even open my eyes in the morning! Jesus Christ Himself told young Nicodemus(?) not to refer to Him as "good". If Christ on Earth was incapable of being truly good, then it's absurd to think I can! I may strive, but I'm not fooling myself nor letting others lay a guilt trip on me for being nothing more than human. My point is, if that's the worst complaint you have about me, your pettiness is showing both your desperation and your weakness. You're losing credibility. And as to your feelings on the matter, I just don't care. I'm gonna continue to ask God to bless you. That's because I try (TRY) to extend love to everyone, and even to enemies! But to clarify, here's another fault: I DON'T care enough about you to hate you. So I absolutely get neither satisfaction nor distress if hot coals are burning on your head. I'm apathetic in that regard. (It's a Biblical thing, in case anyone is interested. And to be honest I never really understood those passages until I started blogging here. Now it's very clear to me. But it's still nothing very exciting for me.) GBU all, Gavin |

I am not a Christian but still recognize blessings. I consider you asking your God to bless me as kind and caring gesture. It has long boggled my mind how someone who does not believe in God could possible put any weigh into offers of His blessing or lack there of. Spiritwoman ^i^
