Life is for Living: July 2008
http://kalanspencer.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Life is for Living. Thursday, July 24, 2008. Recently I found myself in uncommon circumstances-on a car ride with an 8 year old girl. She smiled a lot and talked even more while her long brown hair danced back and forth as if afraid to rest for too long on her shoulders. I hardly know her, but in less than thirty minutes I had grown to love her. In spite of my affection, her oration offered a terrible insight into our culture and struck me with sadness. Don’t let me get ahead of myself though. As Hannah ...

Life is for Living: September 2008
http://kalanspencer.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Life is for Living. Friday, September 19, 2008. Milk it for all its worth. Today I saw an advertisement that encouraged Americans to eat 3-4 servings of milk and dairy a day to stay healthy. "Hm.sounds good," you might say. "I do need the protein and calcium," you might add. "I have been wanting to eat better," you assert. The problem is that such advertising is a perfect example of Americans being duped by media into obesity. Let me illustrate:. 1 cup of Milk: 23% of you daily saturated fat needs. The w...

Life is for Living: Birthday Thank You's
http://kalanspencer.blogspot.com/2010/02/birthday.html
Life is for Living. Sunday, February 7, 2010. 8220;Thank you” to everyone who shared my weekend with me. Amidst the myriad of events and people my birthday party only contributed to a rich weekend. In spite of the minor aspect my birthday played, I felt terribly loved by all my friends here in Columbia. The bonfire/hangout on Saturday night eclipsed all other birthday celebrations within the recent past and hosted more people than any birthday event in my life. Kayt and Kalan Spencer.

Life is for Living: June 2008

Life is for Living. Thursday, June 26, 2008. Know What You Support. As I feel myself being caught up in the political whirlwind billowing throughout the country, my frustration grows at the number of people who are choosing to vote, but don’t know what they are actually voting for. Above all other issues, I have seen polarization without information regarding Republican = Anti-Gay Marriage and pro-life, while Democrat = Pro Gay Marriage and pro-choice.

Life is for Living: South Carolina on My Mind
http://kalanspencer.blogspot.com/2010/02/south-carolina-on-my-mind.html
Life is for Living. Thursday, February 11, 2010. South Carolina on My Mind. Yesterday I experienced a cultural epiphany. In a discussion about politics, I thought to myself “the State Government should have the power to stand against the Federal Government when the Federal Government oversteps its bounds”. Nothing like this has ever crossed my mind before and I realized my immersion in South Carolinian culture caused it. Kayt and Kalan Spencer. February 19, 2010 at 12:01 AM.

Life is for Living: August 2008
http://kalanspencer.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Life is for Living. Wednesday, August 27, 2008. Today I saw a Christian T Shirt that said “Virginity Rocks” in hot pink letters. The early nineties color clashed with the solid black background and set my eye darting for a safer place to gaze. As with most Christian merchandise, I scoffed and engaged in my regular internal dialog. It usually goes something like this:. In an overly chipper, televangelist voice I mockingly ask myself:. 8220; well…what would Jesus do? The truth is that virginity is terrible.
