Did you delete your livejournal? I couldn't access <a href="http://operatingroom.livejournal.com/370488.html#cutid1" rel="nofollow">this link</a>. I've perused all your entries in the "i open at the close" category. It feels nice hearing from such a devoted Potterhead like you. :) Hello, Carina. Did you delete your livejournal?

I saw something like a professor's evaluation card somewhere in one of the pictures. It just looked familiar. are you from UST?

Pretty much what I do now is when someone else brings up the topic, then I'll witness casually. Stealth-savior ;] Actually I find that my best witnessing is entirely accidental; I write scripture in my art journal a lot and I think people really like seeing that in jr__nal. I was surprised at how the internet can help you reach out to someone by accident. Yea, definitely difficult to side-step.

Go watch it. If you have no one to watch with (but I doubt it), I'll go witchu~*~* Hey Melanie, I absolutely get what you mean. That's one of the reasons why I've been kind of "closed" about it. I don't really talk one-on-one with people about Jesus, because I know that attached to that is the idea of those who are so careless about how they come off to other people, if that makes sense. But recently, I've been thinking about how me being able to tell people about Jesus because I love them seems more important than what they end up thinking of me. So, there. I have to think of ways to get that point across, though: that I am telling them not because I think they are wrong and want to win a debate, but because I do care about them. Thanks for the comment :) HEYA MARTIN. Go watch it. If you have no one to watch with (but I doubt it), I’ll go witchu~*~*

I mean, no spiritual parent wants their kid to miss out on eternal life. I think that's what a lot of non-believers don't understand about our faith and the way we practice it. Yes, there are those that are psycho/aggressive/ignorant, but for the most part, when a person tells you about Jesus, it means they care about you. Sorry about the rant, I've been thinking a lot lately about how to lovingly share the glory.

I meant: too much investment. It's so weird but I think I just go crazy when I overinvest in books (HP) and shows (VMars). I just noticed that it evolves (and this happened with both) into a scary obsession which I try, as much as possible, to avoid. But scary obsession be damned! I'm going to fall in love once again with Harry Potter. :) I think I phrased it wrong. I meant: too much investment.
