Brilliance is oft overlooked and thrown away.: February 2013

Brilliance is oft overlooked and thrown away. Thursday, February 21, 2013. My deepest apologies for allowing the weeds to grow wild in these last few months. Being the new year, I do resolve once again to blog a bit more regularly, hopefully at at least once a week, if my brain will churn out something more than, 'sleeeeeeeep.'. Today's young heroes are proud, independent, rebellious, with little care for morals or laws, and these are whom society role models. How is one supposed to learn the virtue ...

Brilliance is oft overlooked and thrown away. Monday, August 13, 2012. Somehow, the topic of heroes within society always seems to return to my mind despite long vacations. That shouldn't be much of a surprise I suppose, since virtue ethics is a pet topic of mine. That, and I will give you a earful about why society needs heroes and not role models. So what makes a hero? PS: Yes, I did promise a short post, but unfortunately brevity is not one of my heroic fortes. Friday, August 03, 2012. St Pau compares...

Brilliance is oft overlooked and thrown away. Sunday, September 16, 2012. Just give me a reason to keep my heart beating. Don't worry it's safe right here in my arms. As the world falls apart around us. All we can do is hold on hold on. Take my hand and bring me back. I risk everything if it's for you. I whisper into the night. Telling me it's not my time and don't give up. I've never stood before this time. So stand up stand up (Just gonna keep it when I). Wake up wake up (Just tell me how I can).

Brilliance is oft overlooked and thrown away. Tuesday, March 17, 2015. Some Quick facts about 3 Parent Embryos and Why It is Immoral. A while ago, Rebecca Taylor posted on the Creative Minority Report. Regarding the general lack of response to the news the that UK has now approved for the creation of 3 parent embryos using two cloning techniques. I, too, passed over the issue because I had thought that it was a routine IVF issue, and also because of the business of medical school. Further during my resea...

Brilliance is oft overlooked and thrown away. Friday, October 12, 2012. The Year of Faith. This is one of the readings from Matins this morning. A sermon by St Bernard of Clairvaux. From the Holy Gospel according to Luke. In that time having fulfilled the days, when they returned, the child Jesus remained in Jerusalem; and his parents knew it not. And so on. A Homily of St. Bernard the Abbot. Homilia 1. de Laud. Virg. Matris. Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? Which of them is not unexampled? O ye th...

Brilliance is oft overlooked and thrown away.: 7 Quick Takes Friday
http://derelictlife.blogspot.com/2014/03/7-quick-takes-friday.html
Brilliance is oft overlooked and thrown away. Saturday, March 01, 2014. 7 Quick Takes Friday. Today, is a cop out post. I haven't really got anything worth reflecting on. I figured I might write a post about how illiterate people are today, after reading many unthoughtful responses to Doug Mainwaring's essay on Public Discourse about being Gay and not supporting same-sex marriage. Perhaps, for another day. Anyway, a glimpse into my very boring life. I restarted my Cantonese lessons today! Incidentally, t...

Brilliance is oft overlooked and thrown away. Sunday, January 06, 2013. I would be most grateful if you would stop and say a short prayer to St Joseph Cupertino, the patron of students taking exams, and St Giuseppe Moscati, the patron saint of doctors, for me. There are two kinds of conversions. The ones that happen to St Paul, like a flash of lightning. Where one is thrown off one's horse and immediately realises God, and makes the appropriate response: to love Him completely without turning back. And y...

Brilliance is oft overlooked and thrown away. Wednesday, January 29, 2014. I've run out of creativity for the year. The sun streams through the window,. Warming my face, as I stare out at the aerial sea,. At the sunbaked, mechanical wings flapping,. Taking this ship higher, higher. Fifty-thousand feet up at sea,. Above the lush coral-fields of clouds,. Traveling through these crystal clear hues,. The sky-turtles float about aimlessly,. Dancing amidst the majestic mantas,. I cannot help but think of you.

Brilliance is oft overlooked and thrown away. Friday, March 29, 2013. Not exactly Holy Thursday thoughts, though maybe those for later. We have a strict right to the love of God, because of our vocation is to follow Him; we cannot do this unless we love Him. Jesus will assuredly give us a sensible love of Him, if I only ask. I must ask, seek, and knock daily and hourly.' - Fr William Doyle, SJ. Wednesday, March 06, 2013. On Suffering and Lent. Uh Yes. Pretty much. Why must we suffer? The first kind of su...
