"Crazy world, full of crazy contradictions like a child, first you drive me wild and then you win my heart with your wicked art, one moment tender, gentle, then temperamental as a summer storm, just when I believe your heart's getting warmer, you're cold and your cruel and I like a fool try to cope, try to hang on to hope. Crazy world, every day the same old roller coaster ride, but I've got my pride, I won't give in, even though I know I'll never win, oh how I love this crazy world." -- "Crazy World" from "Victor/Victoria," lyrics by Leslie Bricusse

The Holidays With Friends

Every year, my dear friend Marcie Jacobsen invites everyone to a Sunday brunch on and/or near her birthday. This year she's turning the big 50 and in the past we've met at Sundance, but his year she decided to change things up and we met up at the Grand America Hotel in downtown Salt Lake City. A beautiful 5-star luxury hotel with a really grand Brunch buffet every Sunday. It isn't cheap, but it's worth it for the incredible food! It was so much fun to spend time with good and dear friends! I couldn't get photos of everyone, but you know how it is! Happy Birthday to my dear Marcie Jacobsen! You are one awesome lady!

Organized Religion, Part 2

This is another aspect of organized religion that I have a huge problem with. I remember growing up that this aspect brought me comfort, knowing that there was someone who held all of the keys and spoke for God in this world. But the older I got, when I came to realize who I was and that God intended me to be this way, it wasn't a choice, along with a host of other issues, including the one mentioned in this article, I came to realize that this is a false comfort. There is a reason God ripped the veil of the temple after our Savior's death on the cross. It was men who "spoke for God" among the Jewish faith, "the one and only true religion" that put him on that cross. There is a reason why God has said time and time again, "I am not a respecter of persons!" I will be coming out with my own story soon, but in light of recent events, I wanted to share this article.

Organized Religion & Personality Disorders

Here is a link to an excellent article about the correlation between religion & personality disorders. I fully agree with this article and I can relate specifically to the OCD and Co-Dependent sections of the article. I will post more later about my own personal experiences.
