Of Love and War

Genisis 1:25- "And God saw that it was good."
Finally, the long awaited second post, now I am not just a one hit wonder, or a oneder, in the blogging world. I have thought long and hard, I even fasted for a short time, searching for that beautiful inspiration that would lead to my millions of readers being wowed by what I've discovered. It was tempting to jump on a criticism of The Charm's blog, about how he is all for man meat, but hates the man, and can somehow say these things while watching Ellen. Samuel+Ellen+hate man+I want your man meat=Gay, Gay, Gay! Very tempting ladies and gentlemen, very tempting in deed. The thing with blogging though, is that if it is true it is patient, and I knew if I waited the inspirtation would come., than it would gladly shine upon me in due season And it did.
I was sitting with some freaking gypsies, and all of the sudden this light flashed before my eyes, and from a trance like state and a blank stare, I began to speak wisdom like I have never spoken it before. It really wasn't me, because I can not come up with something so powerful. Here are my revelations of that night:
Tonight I will be attending a football game between the Bluestem Lions, and the Trinity Tobies. It is my first football game of the year. I love football, and also hate it. It has been hard in the past to come back and watch football games, often because I miss playing, or because I watch all these players that I think that I am better than (No, I am not from Bluestem and have never been a part of a losing streak, that is someone else you're thinking of). I spent a good deal of my life playing football, and now I will never truly play again. Kind of sad. Then this revelation came. I may no longer play again, but I do have a role to play now. It is the fan role, and before I was dissappointed at this forced retirement, but now I see that this fan stuff has some kind of mystic glory about it that can only be seen by the humble.
You see, there is one positition that allows you to enjoy this role of just watching a game and not playing (That's what she said). It is next to a girl under a blanket (That's not what gay Samuel said). When a man is watching football, being loud, hanging with good friends, and sitting next to a woman in slightly cold weather, the world is all it should be. There is not a more enjoyable place in the face of the Earth, other than the presence of God. You have free reign in this position to cuddle and to pay attention sports, to love and to hate, to be a friend and a boyfriend. In this one moment, the two sides of you always fighting become one. It is amazing, it is profound, and it completely blows my mind to think about. I can't think of anything better than this. And tonight, I will complete the prophetic destiny that I have, in fulfilling this testimony of why God made football, and long bleachers that are cold, and blankets, and girls. And God will look down and smile upon all He has made. Now I just need to find a girl...

Levi, the story was even better the second time around. You have about 10 hours to find a girl. Good luck Buddy.

I am waiting for the brilliant 3rd post.
