Games

Today is a Tuesday. Sort of feeling myself "coming down from the mountain" already.

I seem to be so easily pulled away from the focus I need to, I want to have toward the Lord Jesus. I want to be entertained too much, I fear.

I put on the TV and even though I am not even interested in what I am listening to I want to watch something, so I watch. So much stupid junk on TV. Do I really need to know all about celebrities?

And movies, I love movies. Watching movies can be informative, make you think about new ideas. But they can be life zapping too.

And then there is the computer. Yeah for the computer. But it can be a huge distraction. I am a total computer game addict. And I finally pulled myself away from the magnetic attraction of one game. About a month maybe ago, this was after months. I was listening to a thing on Christian radio that really helped me to see it. But, a few days ago, I discovered another and another (I wasn't looking for them, either). All of the sudden I keep coming across them here, there and everywhere. And they are fun to me. But my neck muscles are all tense, and then I'm zapped of energy, and if anyone out there has been a game addict I wonder if we all experience this kind of stuff?

Even this blog could be a distraction. But I hope that my struggles can perhaps help other people. IDK (don't know) who is reading this blog.
