just your soccer not what you think!

i watched some footage of hilter on youtube and it was really hilarious. i don't know what he was doing, but he was talking about football. haha, the makers really did ruin his dictator image and made him look crappy.
well anyway, i think youths today are catching up with more things we usually only get exposed to at a later age. i think exposure is good, but i think pacing is ideal. it's like, nowadays, youths get exposed to things that they ain't ready to dig and they only can deal with the culture shock by tainting that potential that they have. it's not as if it's evil viewership or exposure, but just the timing. it's like exposing toddlers to horror movies.
all these things around youths start to define them before they even can define themselves. they come into some sort of responsibility before they are ready for responsibility. it's like, a broken family, dad's gone, you're the oldest, the situation defines you to be head of the house hold, as a result of that, you have a default responsibility. and youths, me and you, we start to live out that responsibility because we feel burdened about it.
that's how youths are leaders but that also diminishes the potential in you and me. with all these exposure and no not responsibility but obligations, we start growing into ourselves, the very person the things around us wants us to be.
and i'm guessing perhaps that's why youths today know at an earlier age what they want to do in life, what satisfies them and what kind of commitments they want to get into. they want to settle down, rather they want solidity more than excitement. they look to the long run so easily it scares us when we realize how we were so double minded and want to have fun all the time in the past. those things and people around them defined them man, and they don't know how long lasting those effects are going to be. we're more than a blank sheet of paper and there's definitely no eraser for that ink.
i'm just so glad that i was in church so early and i had people who exposed me to things slowly and paced me. potential is fickle, it dies over time and these exposures are catalysts!
well so, we have to race against time. i am excited about heart fest 2009. we have to beat every other thing around, every other 'force' that will alter the nature of the youths. people are less idealistic nowadays because of all these things, but we can keep an idealistic bunch. it'll be cool that this bunch, ain't desire to experiment life like the rest, they can all get it right the first time like us.
let's really go out there and win these people. heart festival is going to be amazing. at this very moment i type this, many youths sec 1s sec 2s are being defined in ways you me will never know. it's like a race. against those 'forces' of society, people, education, culture, everything else. we've got to get there before they do.
even if they don't become christians, we have defined an area about them. it may be a value or thinking or principle they will still live by. it may be one less messed up person, family, generation because of that one good exposure to a one good value, thought or principle.
let's bring the sec 1s and 2s!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 14th feb 2009, i'll see you there
gdnight & bye bye!
on a random note, arshavin has this russian communist thing about him. he says if he could he would ban female drivers. crappy... haiyar, just show me your soccer, not what you think. hahaha
