I stopped NYR years ago, this doesn't mean I don't set goals, actually I set really big goals around Dec 31. I know what your thinking "well that's a NYR"- but it's not. What I am avoiding is the thought that a new year is possessing some mystical power to make me reach some new objectivity. I don't crutch on such ideas, rather I look at the end of a year instead of a new year. I reflect back on the year and continue, improve, or author goals based on that. The feeling of a new year is refreshing and used as an opportunity NOT a motivation. The motivations come from within me, I do not outsource them to the excitement of a new year that is long pass new once March rolls by.Brandonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11948003217574581064noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2070939434471265058.post-86534911648219307022010-12-05T02:28:00.000-08:002010-12-05T02:32:27.650-08:00Omnipotence Paradox<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 5.0px 0.0px; font: 18.0px Futura; color:#8b8b8b;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-size:10px;">Nonsense does not suddenly acquire sense with the addition of the two words, "God can" before it.</span></p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 54.0px; font: 12.0px Futura"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px">I do Not believe in a Omnipotence God, sorry to those of you who hold onto your bible screeching as I say this but I don’t. </span></p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 10.0px 54.0px; font: 12.0px Baskerville"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px">Here is another blasphemy: I don’t believe the scriptures are Omnipotent.

And we're so scared of being so vulnerable we sneak around our feeling and wait for people to come closer so we can step close. We all want it but we talk in circles, avoiding it until it is initiated. Its just so silly how many heart breaks there are in a world full of people who want to be loved and love in return. So I too walk in circles, talk avoiding but not veering from, reaching out but letting go- because we want that good feeling "love" but give a wide berth to that feeling of heart break. I am a lone in a room full of lonely people.Brandonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11948003217574581064noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2070939434471265058.post-32868080335030556422010-06-23T16:48:00.000-07:002010-06-23T16:48:27.473-07:00Brandon's Psalms:<a href="http://optang-psalms.blogspot.com/2010/06/stuff.html?spref=bl">Brandon's Psalms:</a>Brandonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11948003217574581064noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2070939434471265058.post-23273442984481469782010-06-23T15:11:00.001-07:002010-06-23T15:12:24.344-07:00So I started a new Page- Inspired by my own study of Psalms (as I get ready to teach it)<div><a href="http://optang-psalms.blogspot.com/">Brandon's Psalms</a></div>Brandonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11948003217574581064noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2070939434471265058.post-63415358128523884202010-03-06T20:17:00.000-08:002010-03-06T20:26:17.944-08:00Animation long #2<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjW_8itIV3etDhfZELU2xMvztFNFNBs8eez6bp8zm8jHqLEKVtkj3DY3zADmQeEPIXfOAUC99hHVMozLBdwjpQw1WA95m3QpOiZKomklBMtU3vCwhJFnCJlo4Z6keNIbL_I3LEoCm718UA/s1600-h/Untitled-1.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 229px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjW_8itIV3etDhfZELU2xMvztFNFNBs8eez6bp8zm8jHqLEKVtkj3DY3zADmQeEPIXfOAUC99hHVMozLBdwjpQw1WA95m3QpOiZKomklBMtU3vCwhJFnCJlo4Z6keNIbL_I3LEoCm718UA/s400/Untitled-1.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5445741630569873714" /></a>I am moving kinda along, actually I am having a hard time- as in time is hard to come by. I am having fun and enjoying it, mostly because I am learning a lot. There are plenty of things I could be doing, I am favoring getting this animation done, well the first episode. I am really unsure what I am going to do for voices, I am going to need to find some voices. awesome. ok then......................................................................Brandonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11948003217574581064noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2070939434471265058.post-32216022975380131182010-03-03T13:25:00.000-08:002010-03-03T13:27:57.869-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6UR_BRf47uc7XKlTNkx0nOK_mr0C20XhyphenhyphenhymFtXzBoPop8I5jbxGoeDrucmdlFach0Scbvm5dT7NHi1RIelG9QC0y0e3mEcxM-8eq8gfD_HPcxWWMcR9JNA6O_1GQttIiiyWfoX9_qio/s1600-h/Erone.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 229px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6UR_BRf47uc7XKlTNkx0nOK_mr0C20XhyphenhyphenhymFtXzBoPop8I5jbxGoeDrucmdlFach0Scbvm5dT7NHi1RIelG9QC0y0e3mEcxM-8eq8gfD_HPcxWWMcR9JNA6O_1GQttIiiyWfoX9_qio/s400/Erone.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5444521973154724162" /></a>From my upcoming animationBrandonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11948003217574581064noreply@blogger.com2
