Update on Me. Nothing Video'd This Time, Promise.

[Joe Wordsworth]

Well, after some time to get right, I'm back at University. They offered up a Religious Studies MA, and so I'm going to work on getting it before the PhD. My dissertation project, right now, is tracking the concept of radical evil from Hebraism through fourth century Christianity (roughly from Mazdaists to Augustine). It'll be a small book. But, fun to write.

Ultimately, My Girl and I aren't together anymore. The split actually prompted my decision to come back to school for a while. Eight years of history is a long time at twenty-five. No real reasons for the split other than fear and doubt and pressure. Truly, I'd never been heartbroken before--not really--until recently. It has been a trying and difficult six weeks.

But, I'm better. Back to doing what I love. Special thanks to EL, she's been there for me a lot this last couple of months. I really appreciate it, hon.

Any time, love.

It's so good to see you getting back to what you love! I can't even spell dissitation (see) let alone write one, especially yours but I know you love learning and I know you're going to do superbly well.

Broken hearts are fiddly things but, with a bit of time, care and a bit of glue, they do fix back together, there will always be the mark there, but your heart won't be broken forever.

take care of yourself and post more here! We miss you! (Okay, I'm only sure that I miss you, but I bet others do too!)

I'm glad you're feeling a little better, Joe... and that EL has been there for you, too...

sounds like an interesting little project for school... good luck with it!

Hi Joe
I'm glad you're picking up. Religious studies offers lots of scope, and also a chance for philsophizing.

Break ups are very hard, and people compound the pain, often by what they do after, e.g. blame themselves, drink themselves to oblivion so they lose their job, etc.

May I ask what is 'radical evil' ? Is it the opposite of 'halfhearted evil' or 'shallow evil, ' 'kinda-bad-but-not-really bad evil'? or is it just 'large scale evil' as opposed to 'small scale evil' --offing a million vs. offing your next door neighbor.

Or is it like 'evil for no purpose but entertainment.' I.e. the man who shoots you NOT to get your money, but because watching you bleed might be amusing.

Glad to hear you're finding your happy place, Joe. I hope you continue to find peace.

The value of peace was, honestly, lost on me until recently. I was certainly more of the opinion that willpower defined what one felt and didn't. That view has changed.

Welcome to adulthood, Joe.

Welcome to adulthood, Joe.

Thank you.

I think.
