Relationships and Niagara On The Lake Duathlon Finish Video

Let's show the video first..this is me running to the end. Notice the Tigger ears and my right arm moving not as relax as my left. No need to be too critical as I am still in my off season.

Now onto something more interesting. Recently me and my friend has been talking about relationships. It is very interesting to see that God has put him in the similair situation as me.

Actually, what we are talking about is not relationship. We are being selfish and talking about ourselves. Specfically about how to become a stronger Christian (man). Sorry guys, I ain't talking about tricks and pick up lines.

We were discussing about standing up for our values and our faith. He was mentioning that you to need show your integrity, honesty, be courtesy, show respect...I said that if we are truly Christian (man), we will be showing those characteristics already.

The biggest challenge is to be who I am. That's the scariest part. No, I do not mean to scratch yourself and burp in public :D. But am I honest enough to show my weakness? My faults? To not worry what the partner will think of me? To talk about my sins? To not be thinking about the best way to pick this person up or if I have a chance with that person...to just be me.

I ain't worry about finding the right person b/c I know God will be at work there. I detest current society how if u find someone u don't like, u drop him/her and find someone else. This ain't shopping for a car. (besides, there is no perfect someone..every relationship has trials).

A few years back (befoe I accepted Christ), me and my friend challenged each other. The goal was to get 10 dates on lavalife (or in person or whatever) during the summer. If the other person found a relationship before the 10 dates, he would automatically win. Of course, me being me, I won the contest. Thinking back, that was actually very silly and immature.

My focus, simple. To work on becoming a better Christian everyday. Consistency..just like in training. Just like in life.

Sorry guys, it is late and I am a bit sick. I don't have time to look up scriptures...here are some articles that I found online that helped me shape my thinking:

- Who's on first?
- What does a Biblical Relationship looks like?
- Not Your Buddy
