I'm gonna put the phone down now...

Oh my!

My IP keeps changing and I decided to phone my isp. They got me to call telkom on 0800375.75 - a free call...i hope..

Anyway, this guy said my internet would not work if i used 10.30.99.254 as a gateway - not the default config and thats my problem.
I told him my qualifications and that i had reconfigured; My internet works fine, but my IP keeps changing; I have no spyware...

I'm trying to login to a youth gallery admin interface, but it keeps logging me out due to my IP constantly changing. It is so fustrating. I've now had a break before the last 40 minutes before lunch extend into my after lunch free time..

The fault was logged - he said it could be a port problem on the exchange's side. The tech told me my reference number and asked if that was all. I said yes, that's all, but i acted much like a modem - i awaited for a goodbye signal...

SILENCE...

Then I said, "I'm gonna put the phone down now, before it confuses us all..", He said, "Yes, you are meant to put the phone down. It is a good idea..", so I said, "Cheers. Thank you, Goodbye"

His greeting was ok, but his end-of-conversation/help skills are shocking.
BUT wait...
He does what I was trained to do.. only end the call when the customer has ended the call! Seven cheers for telkom's fault reporting techie!
Other call center people just end the call...

The revenge of the ants

Oh my eyes!!!

I mixed up a snack to eat, had one spoonful left and then the ants came...

Must be about 70 ants eating my peanut-syrup butter snack and another 20 arbitrarily walking round my desk (running away from my fingers).

oh well, since the last time i posted something to my blog, i have found my wallet - by the coffee machine, for an unknown reason.
i'm back on my contacts and I obtained permission from IBS to audibly record two (2) books of the Bible!!!

On to love...
Love is humbling oneself to another.

Do you know how many people have said something against my humbleness? Too many to count on my fingers - they all say that I must stand up for myself. Be a man. Be of the world.......

I strive for everything to be of God and nothing to be of the world. If you don't like that about me, tell me and I'll try explain it to you..!

AAAAK....
The ants are EATING my toes.....

I'm not dead, yet...

I decided to give the dogs a run - separately. Running around the block with an un-fit dog is no big deal. After a five minute drink break, I took the fit dog and ran him round the block - I stopped twice for a breather!!

To cool down, I took my bike and set it on the lowest gears and cycled round two blocks. This car drove past me as I was heading down the road at a slow pace and pedaling - STARE. The same car drove past me again while I was on a flat bit of road - I was still going slowly!

I'm home now, typing this.

While I was 'cycling', I thought what was and what is wrong with my friendships at this time. Almost immediately, I remembered yesterday - this driver of a car, looked as though they were going straight, but turned as I crossed the road, WITHOUT signalling. That was a random thought. I usually dont do that, but I saw the reason for it. Most of my friendships have times when I just do, without communication. Or build-up without God.

Alot of my friendships have been braking. Some through my own means and mostly through God.
The friendships that God broke-off, will not come together. But those friendships that were broken because of my actions, God has made somethings good of it.

If I work with God on the friendships that I had something to do with them breaking up, God will bring them back. If you dont believe me, watch this space!!!

My elbow is sore?!? and I dont know why..

God, He loves you and me,

Ten minutes without God

I have been talking to God the whole day. God has been with me and it has made life today so much easier to live.

I spent ten minutes (alone, with no hint of God) thinking and idling behind the pc - I see things that are screwed because I didnt ask God first.
My life almost took a dive for the worst. Seeing something I'm powerless to do anything about, moving things around, thinking of possible sin... I said "STOP!" out loud - God was there waiting and Satan skimpered off.

I'm glad I started my day off with understanding God's Word. Home was a nightmare - we have workmen in the house modifying the bathroom and constant interruptions. So I drove to the shed and became a Firefly! Sat down and went through day 15 of the Tribe, A Warrior's Calling. James, a good book. Something that has been on my mind and in other people's speak. So I spoke to God. In fact I asked God last night to help me to keep a conversation going without forgetting what was said and then turning silent. I read the book of James a few nights ago - a brilliant book to read! It brought my understanding of prayer much higher.

I kinda wish I could share what more I learnt of what love is, but it is very much confidential and I wont be unfaithful to my friend(s).

One more thing - when on a treatment to sort out your sleeping pattern, try not get less than 8 hours of sleep. I was away from home and fell asleep, thereby writing two characters on top of each other.. I only got 6 hours of sleep. When you build a house, make sure it's completed when you move in, dont leave it for thirty odd years down the line!?!

I figured out my pet name that my Mother uses often,

Brandy and coke

So tonight was all about celebrations of two birthdays. I ate something quite acid, had brandy in my coke, sipped red wine and mistook white wine for water..quite a large gulp - dont ask...

Yip, now I need to whet the water...

ok, so i've realised it all...

Becoming whom I really should be -
   How God created me!!

Well to be honest, I'm sitting (here) kinda in 'the corner'. There's a real bright light to the left (in front) of me, and each time someone walks past, they reflect the brIght light...
To the right of me is a square table covered in a red plastic table 'cloth' - it has 3 side-plates on it and one is mine with cake on it.
This chair is getting hard - it IS hard, and black...

So back to what I realised.
I keep wanting to be at the stage in my life where I'm free, but there is ALWAYS something keeping me from freedom.
If I don't STOP everything in its tracks then I will always have something keeping me back.

I have also come to realise what love is - NO, there is not only ONE definition, but many, and I must thank a good friend for helping me understand what love is.
It is rather comical, but not funny, how my lesson came about - I'll only say that I asked my friend what they thought love is.

I'm gonna try explain it:
love is, that yearning for the one loved.
The feeling of something missing - I'm trying, but much of the readers may get lost..
The love (I speak about) is Godly, so if you don't really know Jesus...
That excitement of visualising, or not really see, but feeling. That is love.
It's not emotion, as then that's like love between two people. It is that which makes your spirit 'jump' with expectancy (joy), dance with happiness that is truly OUT of this world.

Yip, I'll write everytime I come to realise what love is in a Godly sense.

Be good and keep well,
God bless!

My first post

Yeah, this is what it could be all about...

I'll let rip of how my day has been and what makes me sad and glad.. perhaps i'll rant a bit about some silly topic.

OKay, this is still an empty blog until I fill it with tomorrow's news that I dont know today - my nose cant stand cats.....

I'm not gonna be against God.
