His lyrics speak to my heart, which is why I love him. Sorry Laurie, I’m stuck in the dark ages (no CD burner)

Is it a fast or slow song and what's it about? Maybe I can see if I can get a sample of it online. I think of the Fugees (y'know, the group with Lauren Hill) when I think of refugees. haha.. and it's so funny how things remind us of other things. For instance, MJ reminds me of Michael Jackson, but then you said it was Mary-Jane, which totally reminded me of Spider-Man. hahaha, speakin' of, isn't Spider-Man 3 comin' out soon? Wait, Superman Returns is first, eh? MJ, I’ve never heard the song before. Is it a fast or slow song and what’s it about? Maybe I can see if I can get a sample of it online.

Just a thought. Continue to let love surround you... Laurie, when I read that you were born in a refugee camp in Thailand, I immediately thought of the song “Refugee” sung by a sweet soul, Tom Petty.

Gary has it right and right on. Your postings since then are illuminating and I think you read your brother correctly when you said he was 'spiritually thirsty.' And that is my response to what made me look to Jesus for light. I am intellectually convinced, emotionally accepting, and spiritually happy. For a good, though difficult, read, I suggest Phenomenon Of Man, by Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, a biologist, archeologist, writer, and Jesuit priest. The quote I most remember is that we (mankind) are like a rising bubble in a downward flowing stream, and his firm belief that evolution takes us closer and closer to each other and to G-d. That got a bit offtrack,didn't it, Laurie? In the previous blog I explained as best I could the various themes we were talking about, but I never got to say I believe in jesus, I hope in Jesus, and I love Jesus. He satisfies my thirst, living bread and wine. Laurie – Oh, I knew you were joking about the ‘hottest man’ all right, and I laughed then, but I meant it about him not making the best mate.

Most people do not like to be transparent with their lives. But it is needed to understand each other better. You guessed it! Born in Manitoba. Summers are great but the winters are way too looooong. Like you, I also struggled with an eating disorder, anorexia nervosa. It was bad. But I'm over it now, thank God! About the Christ encounter... or whatever you call it... happened in high school in 97-ish. Basically I read Jesus' words and, spiritually, the words jumped out of the pages. I went to church and felt a presense during the praise and worship and just cry. I cried and cried and cried... not for myself, I was simply sensing a presense of Love and it was good. Every night for about a year and a half, I'd go to bed and a spirit of Love would fall on my body and I soaked in it. I also remember feeling like I was on fire. Something like swords of fire were priecing me. Sorry, it's hard to explain. I kinda got freaked out about the whole situation and wondered if my high school principle knew what was happening to me. (I went to a Christian High School). I forget what he said. Anywho, that was that. I appreciate that experience. But it is what it is. What it was, I don't know. All I know is that I am a Seeker of Truth. I sense that I have a sword-like spirit within me. It cuts the crap out of me and I cut out other peoples crap with it too. Ha! What on earth am I saying? I must be crazy. Maybe I'm crazy? Maybe just a little nutz, like everyone else on this planet. HA! have a good one, people. Hey there Laurie,
