Day of (male) redemption…an edifying conversation…


PoluOwau: how’s life treating you?
lukepuke82: some weird stuff going on but stuff is alright…you know…rolling with the punches
PoluOwau: what sort of weird stuff?
lukepuke82: you girls…trying to stay friends…tough to do once activity has started
PoluOwau: what do you mean?
lukepuke82: you have to know Xxxxx…activity…changes things a lot
PoluOwau: yea, this is true
PoluOwau: I’ve hardly had time to breath
PoluOwau: but you know what?
lukepuke82: what Xxxxx
PoluOwau: today…in all honesty…has been a day of redemption
lukepuke82: continue…and define
PoluOwau: several guys have redemed the male status on my mental scale
lukepuke82: …
PoluOwau: I was having a hard time seeing the male species as a worthy creature
PoluOwau: but you and a few others have given hope to what seemed to be a lost cause
PoluOwau: thank you
lukepuke82: you know whats lame?
PoluOwau: what’s that?
lukepuke82: there are few people with the RIGHT mindest
lukepuke82: makes it difficult to find
PoluOwau: find what?
lukepuke82: true (companionship) from the other sex…this is what i get out of what your saying(standards/principles/ideologies/morals)…
PoluOwau: this is true…very true
lukepuke82: and compromising is tempting…or can be(for me at least)…kxxx [*his roommate*] sets me straight
PoluOwau: it’s a blessing to have such loyal accountability
lukepuke82: yeah…we have a thing going called OPPortunity
lukepuke82: did i tell you about that
PoluOwau: nope
PoluOwau: do share
lukepuke82: the costco environment that we are in all the time is both a good and bad thing…
[*he and his roommate work at Costco*]
lukepuke82: tempting environment in terms of the friends that we have there
PoluOwau: right, I can relate
lukepuke82: exposes you to vulger language, being loose(with the opposite sex), drinking-important to take advantage of how just about everyone likes us
lukepuke82: be an example…be different
lukepuke82: show them a lifestyle of meaning
PoluOwau: cheers to that!
lukepuke82: it may sound weird to you, but it is very apparent to me and kxxx…thats what we call OPPortunity
lukepuke82: we say OPP to remind us of our goal when in certain (s)ituations
PoluOwau: it reminds me of a verse in Ephessians
lukepuke82: ya…
PoluOwau: “Be careful then how you live-not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity,because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.”
lukepuke82: I like that-supremely true
PoluOwau: It’s one of my favorite verses…Ephesians 5:15-17
lukepuke82: makes things very clear…opens your eyes
PoluOwau: coolness
[*Then we discussed how his sister was coming to visit and she wanted to visit me in Ashton…*]
PoluOwau: coolness, we’ll give her a tour
lukepuke82: plus, I need one too
PoluOwau: I thought you’ve seen Ashton
PoluOwau: weren’t you seeing a girl that lived in Ashton last year?
lukepuke82: not your floor though
PoluOwau: oh, I see
lukepuke82: oh…that did not work
PoluOwau: bummer
lukepuke82: no…she is a climber chick…not very feminine…not for me at all
PoluOwau: it’s nice to hear you say that as well…good grief…you’re racking in all the brownie points today!
PoluOwau: haha
PoluOwau: it’s nice to know that guys still go for feminine girls
lukepuke82: things work out the way they’re supposed to…i wonder to…its natural
PoluOwau: yea, but it’s still hard to see it sometimes
lukepuke82: look at it this way
lukepuke82: when you do meet the ONE(being cheesy)-everything in the past is simply progressive history
lukepuke82: but…
lukepuke82: history still has to take place…i guess…dont know if i said that the way i think it
PoluOwau: haha, no worries, that happens to me all the time
PoluOwau: but I know what you mean
PoluOwau: it’s all in your spiritual perspective
PoluOwau: but that’s a view that very few people have chosen to see the world with
lukepuke82: aha…things look bleak because God just wants us(everyone) to trust Him
PoluOwau: it’s just that these past few days, guys have not been demonstrating their best qualities and it has somewhat tarnished my better perspective
PoluOwau: but like I said, today was the day of redemption
PoluOwau: 🙂
lukepuke82: Xxxxx…imagine what I see with really pretty girls at costco…that are trash(in the way they live)
PoluOwau: I can imagine
lukepuke82: makes things look bleak…they’re the girls i’m around(unfortunately), not spu girls who have more potential for character
lukepuke82: i work too much…
PoluOwau: I think it’s great that you are seeing God in the environment around you
PoluOwau: whether or not you are working, I think that God has instilled in you the desire to see Him in the world around you
PoluOwau: hence, the reason you are noticing all these things
