today was quite a boring day, aside that fact that i was doing up a blog for a certain someone, the day was pretty boring. hmm. well. i've really got not much things to post, cuz well, i'm pretty braindead and tired right now. lol.
went for cell group just now. well, it's not much of a difference from the normal cell groups that i have been attending, just that it was different with the return of Daniel, Teryl and with Anthony's friend Samuel, who is going into army tomorrow(God Bless Him) joining us.
been spending my time reading the Civil War comics from Spider-Man's point of view, but that's just totally useless information, aside that fact that it was superbly interesting and stuff. but the thing is, i caught this one thing that really stood out to me from within the whole comic.
" "If you alone of all the nation shall decide one way, and that way be the right way according to your convictions of the right, you have done your duty by yourself and by your country, hold up your head, you have nothing to be ashamed of."
It doesn't matter what the press says. doesn't matter what the politicians or the mobs say. doesn't matter if the whole country decides that something wrong is something right. this nation was founded on one principle above all else: the requirement that we stand up for what we believe, no matter the odds or the consequences.
when the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world-- --No, you move."
-Captain America.
indeed. these said words of the patriot Captain America, resound from to Marvel Universe out to reality. even if it is from fiction, these words truly have power in their meaning. and truly, really have impacted me in a different manner.
