I don't want to write the regular nothingness I normally do. It feels stupid. Didn't go to class today, I don't care. Neurontin pills make me so sleepy. No comment about today, words aren't good enough. Sorry. I'm happy, yet sad. Confused yet so enlightened. I dunno. The answer to life, the universe, everything is... 42. I doubt any of you will get that, but maybe someone out there has read the book and is now going HA! I GET IT! I'm too tired. This surgery drained a lot out of me, and continues to do so. I'm nowhere close to 100% yet. I'd say I'm functioning at 50% tops.

Blogs, weblogs, livejournals, xangas. Whatever you want to call them, you can't deny their unique power. A lot of people with whom I'd never talk about these things read my blog and know a little bit more about me. Same goes for others. I read their blogs and say wow I never knew this person was like that, or felt those emotions. I think they're a good thing, but they shouldn't replace regular conversation.

For those that believe in a God (which excludes me):
Are good acts good just because God says so, or does God say so because they are good? If it is just because God says so, then God's commandments seem arbitrary. And what if God does not exist? Does anything go? On the other hand, if God's commandments are made for a reason, i.e. if there is something else (other than God's arbitrary decree) about bad acts that makes them bad, what is it? That also means God himself is subject to these laws. And is God then irrelevant to ethics?

That's a paraphrasing of a small part of Socrates' Euthyphro.
