Semper Eadem!

always the same...

You are back from the far country of NY. Headed into the tunnel of Sophomore year in HS. It is amazing that each of the children that have followed me into that tunnel that I have watched have exhibited the same symptoms. Sophomoric thinking is a tunnel to traverse, but not a destination to inhabit. We must think sophomoricly to get to wisdom. Me, myself and I are the center of sophomoric thinking and they are where we think from. Our own selves is the center of our mind. What does this have to do with me? Where am I going to use this? Why do I have to do this? These are the questions of the sophomore and they must begin your investigation of life. You must investigate life and this must begin with questions, but the importance of categorizing questions into valid and invalid questions is an important quality that some scholastic endeavors might rob from you. I see this often. They say there are no stupid questions and there are no questions that are not worth asking. That is a lie! If you begin with the premise of there is no God, you have every possibility of entering a tunnel of unbelief that you might not live long enough to get back from. That stupid question of is God relevent is not only invalid, it is terminal to your body and to your soul. Don't let them feed you that stupidity. Keep the questions of your sophomorism and categorize them as you go on your quest for knowledge. Stay hungry and don't let people stifle your hunger for the knowledge and the part of the puzzle of Life that God has you on the earth to solve. Don't stay a sophomore! Go into the tunnel take out those diamonds and come out a better man and follow God who has never been a sophomore and is

Always the Same.
