I did struggle with pornography for a long time. The thing about pornography is that you have to fight it on many different levels. You can't just do everything the same and try to not watch it. You have to guard your eyes and your heart. Personally I had to stop watching most shows and especially anime, because of all of the "fan service." I started to control my eyes in public, which for men is difficult, but it can be done, men are not helpless. I had to stop fantasizing (this should be obvious.) I had to change the way I sleep. I had to change my computer usage habits including walking away for a bit. Flee from every HINT of sexual immorality. But, no matter what I did I could not defeat it without Christ. I had to give my life to him, and put him in control.

Some people in my family can raise one eyebrow independent of the other. It is a great trait to have. It can convey all kinds of things: disdain, skepticism, concentration, etc. Sometimes, I've done it for students and I've had some say "Don't look at me like that!" Lol

The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway. I hated it, absolutely. I felt like Hemingway had no idea what he was talking about, like he was pretending to know how a poor, Cuban fisherman thought and felt. It wasn't genuine. It seemed to me that Hemingway was a bwana pretending to know the heart of a native.
With which person in the Bible do you most identify?

As much as I'd like to tell all of the lovely ladies I identify with Boaz that's simply not true. (Though I do completely get "You could have gone around with men your own age, but you chose me.") I think I most identify with the man that tells Jesus "I do believe, help me in my unbelief." Paul says "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." And I need help with my faith because so much is unseen. Many times I feel blind and too pitiful to help myself, and I continually ask for the Holy Spirit to ask for what I really need because I feel I don't know what I should be asking for.

Luke 15:11-32
11 And he said, A certain man had two sons:
12 And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living.
13 And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.
14 And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want.
15 And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.
16 And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat: and no man gave unto him.
17 And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger!
18 I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee,
19 And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.
20 And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.
21 And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son.
22 But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet:
23 And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry:
24 For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.
25 Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard musick and dancing.
26 And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.
27 And he said unto him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound.
28 And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and intreated him.
29 And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:
30 But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.
31 And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine.
32 It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found...
