i will be looking forward to see what everyone has to say. ^_^

Well its 5:18. guess its time for me to try to get some shut eye.

Words for Love

well this is something i been thinking about for a couple days now and i thought i would share it with anyone and everyone that reads my blogs. the whole 2 or 3 of you that try to. sorry its so hard to keep up with all my fans.

well i started think about the greeks words for love after the bible study i had on wednesday. it was on John 21:15-17, i decided to do some research on each word for love in the greek.



Eros

Eros is passionate love, with sensual desire and longing. The Modern Greek word "erotas" means "(romantic) love". However, eros does not have to be sexual in nature. Eros can be interpreted as a love for someone whom you love more than the philia love of friendship. It can also apply to dating relationships as well as marriage.

Philia

Philia which means friendship in modern Greek, a dispassionate virtuous love, was a concept developed by Aristotle. It includes loyalty to friends, family, and community, and requires virtue, equality and familiarity. In ancient texts, philia denoted a general type of love, used for love between family, between friends, a desire or enjoyment of an activity, as well as between lovers. This is the only other word for "love" used in the ancient text of the New Testament besides agape, but even then it is used substantially less frequently.

Agapē

Agapē means "love" in modern day Greek, which means"I love you". In Ancient Greek it often refers to a general affection rather than the attraction suggested by "eros"; agape is used in ancient texts to denote feelings for a good meal, one's children, and the feelings for a spouse. It can be described as the feeling of being content or holding one in high regard. The verb appears in the New Testament describing, amongst other things, the relationship between Jesus and the beloved disciple. In biblical literature, its meaning and usage is illustrated by self-sacrificing, giving love to all--both friend and enemy.

Storge

Storge means "affection" in modern Greek; it is natural affection, like that felt by parents for offspring. Rarely used in ancient works, and then almost exclusively as a descriptor of relationships within the family.

Thelema

Thelema means "desire" in modern Greek; it is the desire to do something, to be occupied, to be in prominence



well this is some of what i found from just looking at some places and doing my little research project. ^_^ it was fun and meant a lot to me. hope this means a lot to whoever stumbles upon this.

another sleepless night!

well its bout 3:30 in the morning and i cant seem to get to sleep. i dont know why that is, well that's a lie. its because i have a lot of things on my mind right now that i need to get out but i am a shy person and keeping them to myself is probably the best for everyone around me, but not for me. I care more for my friends sometimes then i do bout myself. oh and another reason why i cant sleep right now is maybe cause i had an insane amount of caffeine. (aka: 7 pump chi tea latte from starbucks and 3 mountain dews, well actually now that i think of it they werent really mountain dew. was the kroger knock off, but close enough!) well this was fun posting bout my boring, stressful, and lazy life on another one of them amazing sleepless nights. well i will probably be posting another useless blog in a couple minutes or hours. we will see.

Working Out

Well last night i decided to go to a bible study/workout. it was fun and i had a blast but kinda tiring. i am sure right now but it make me think that i wont be fit overnight. it will take some hard work and dedication but in the long run it will be worth it. it will make me feel healthy and more energetic, and i will have more endurance.

But i have to work to stay where God will want me, and work day and night to stay there.

This is poem i wrote, dont laugh.
