I care

I have been 'cursed' with 'caring'. I wish I didn't care about so many things, but I do. The craziness online recently about different controversial issues in Taiwan have been rather overwhelming for me. My heart is in a state of grief. Feel burdened almost everyday for the past few weeks. 

Haven't said much on Facebook. Haven't expressed too many views. I still believe that it's more beneficial to observe, to listen, to find out more. to compare, to quietly form a well-balanced view with a firm foundation. It's been even more tough than usual for me to wade through all the noise online, because it's all in Chinese. My speed in reading Chinese has improved in leaps and bounds over the past few years, but it's still a million miles behind my English reading. 

I have only stated 2 views online: One, I abhor and detest online trolling, anonymous phone threats of violence, and any other underhanded, cowardly way of expressing displeasure at the opposite side's views. I ABHOR IT FROM THE DEPTHS OF MY HEART! This I feel I need to SHOUT. Whatever your views are, state them honestly and civilly. Even with satire if you will. But show your face and name！And don't threaten the other side. 

Another view I have stated was: Traditional does not mean it's right. 'Forward thinking' is often swinging to the other extreme, which is usually just as wrong and destructive.

What we all really need are the 'timeless' truths and principles of God. (Principles are not the same things are 'rules'. That I will expand on later)

There is much that has been milling in my mind. I haven't been so burdened since the time I pondered over Calvinism and Arminianism. Praying that God will lead me on to great revelation and the wisdom to live out those revelations.
