So the curtain finally falls on Ashton Kutcher's and Demi Moore's union. I'm kinda sad. I know its ridiculous because they're part of the empty, vain, shallow life that is Hollywood. But yet am sad.
This breakup, makes me sad for so many reasons. First of all, they're people and it's tragic when a marriage ends in divorce. Then it just makes me think of how desperately we need Christ in our lives and in our relationships. When we see the world and others through the lens of God's Word, we rise above ourselves and our nature and like Christ, learn to lay our lives down for others. Loving them even in they're weakness and imperfection, God gives us the strength.
It makes me think of how frail and weak we are. Our femininity and masculinity is flawed. Therefore we constantly have to look to God to redefine us and write the story of our lives afresh.
This break up also saddens me because I liked them. Yes, I admit it, I was rooting for them. They were different. Defied tradition. I like different and tradition defying folks. Its just me. Normal bores me.
Anyway, these are just my thoughts.
Have a happy day people! And strive to walk with Christ, in the end He is the only Truth we have.

ReplyDeleteThanx for visiting me Pattie, means a lot to me..
ReplyDeleteAre Ashton and Demi part of the empty, vain shallow life of hollywood?! Totally!!and because of that, a part of me honestly feels like I could be doing something better with my time other than commenting on their marriage..
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, like you said,these are people who together decided to travel down the mysterious path love and for reasons we shall never know are no longer on the same path.. and for that reason and that reason alone, i too am sad and willing to comment :-)
Our femininity and masculinity is definitely not anything worth banking our lives on. we all might not know it but we not only need Christ but we are nothing without him.
My prayer is that we learn from what we see..and desire to be the best we can be in Him.
Thanks for this Nduta..
Ps. perhaps defying tradition also has its limits; at least try to retain the marriage section.
muchos love truth sister
