2006.11.11 Sat - G'day Mate

Surely there was no one like Ahab who sold himself to do evil in the sight of the LORD, because Jezebel his wife incited him. ~ 1 Kings 21:25

This verse can scare you into singleness, no? Ever wondered how different your life can be depending on whom you marry (applying to both genders)? Read the text of and INTO THE TEXT OF 1 Kings 16:30 thru 2 Kings 9. Ahab (a Jewish king) & Jezebel (a non-Jew hottie he married), & Tyndale House Publishers' "Life Application Bible" - "The choice of a mate will have a significant effect on life - physically, spiritually, and emotionally."

Have you ever noticed a "pecking order" develop in a group amongst the guys and/or girls? This is in the workplace as well as amongst friends. There's almost an order to whom everyone looks up to for certain tasks, perhaps another for certain knowledge, or yet another for some other admirable trait. It could even be all inclusive in one person (the alpha [fe]male). Then there's the next "highest", and the next. When in the context of a social setting, I'm not really sure what to think of it anymore. Shall we brush it off as "just being human"? Or should we be aware (and beware) of its pitfalls, and thereby striving to avoid such an order?

On a (somewhat) similar note, this pic is from last Winter during Stanfurd Tmony's 2 week L.A. Winter Break Tour. "Hi Young Sue" Jason Kim and I are modeling the peacock mating behavior (the 2 birds are blended into the background). Although I'm feigning ignorance in this pic, I really do miss him. :)
