“Time” is the greatest evangelist of all time 💭

It’s okay to want what’s right. God also wants that. And to hate what’s wrong because God hates that. And right or wrong is not dependent on who did what. Right or wrong, abuse or fairness, do not distunguish between president, bishop, pope or a commoner. Only evil structures do that.

For so long people thought I was merely a lunatic. But that’s a bit right. I am crazy for justice and truth. And now people are seeing I am not the only one.

At a certain point we have to draw the line between what are just differences and what is abusive. The first one can be resolved. The second one has to be addressed and acknowledged AND SOLVED. If none of the three work, then it has to be exposed.

I think this is what healing looks like: to be able to forgive while still seeking and praying for justice, but at the same time trusting that evil goes down whether I live to see that day or not.

One thing that has cost me a lot of money and possible positions was the choice to be around for my children. Especially in the first seven years of life. I would rather be absent for everything that be absent to my children.

If we came together for a mission and if I happen to know that I must now continue the mission outside of our relationship and you got mad, then that only goes to show that you were not about the mission but about the relationship. Relationships are great, until it becomes the god.

We cannot let lies resonate with us no matter how convincing they may be.

Despite the clarity of what I said, someone mistook it and accused me to be doing something I am not doing. And it reminded me of an important lesson I always ask my kids: “Do you really become (insert label) just because someone called you that?” Do you become stupid just because someone said so? How about intelligent? Do you become smart just because someone said it?

How many times have you mothers and father sacrificed your personal wants for your family’s needs? Sometimes it aches, sometimes not, yes? 🫶🏻

“The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes.” (Marcel Proust) One theme of life is that many answers and solutions actually already lie within us. And a subsequent theme is that even if, when things go wrong and aren’t working out, we effectively find ways of blaming things other than us. Sometimes (or many times?) the problem really is only you.
