I heard an Adventures in Odyessy episode the other day and it shocked me of what happened. It was a true story about a monk named Telemachus who did in a gladiator arena when trying to show the people at this time that what they were doing wrong. He was on his way to find the true meaning of being Christlike, and ended up dying for it. His death ended up stoping gladiator fights forever. This theme was Sacrifice for what's right and had a verse that stated "no greater love is this, that he lay down his life for his friends" and those that are your enemies. Listen to this episode at WhitsEnd.org on the radio and listen to the episode titled "Telemachus part 1 and 2"

Also, I've been given back permission to have pokemon again; only if I don't get OBSESSED (which is semi bound to happen at some point). It also helped me start think more about some songs and things that have or are semi-connected to the words Black and White.
One of them is in the lyrics of Black and White by Royal Tailor:
'Cause there's black and there's white
and there wrong and there right.
I can't go one more night,
I'm telling you that I am sorry
for all of the pain that if cause
I've been gone for so long,
I'm telling you that I am sorry
Can you hear me?
Please forgive me
The other example is the semi reasonly new Pokemon Black and White games for Nitendo DS (good think I don't have one to make me start to be obessive).
The song tells that just like black and white, there's wrong and right, just like there's light and dark, life and death. Just like these things we must always be on the White side of life were their is life, forgiveness, love, goodness, right and Jesus and stay away from the Black side of life were theirs death, grudges, deceit, evil, wrong and the Devil. In order to stay in the light we must stay away from temptation and our evil desires.
Well, until next time,
Forevermore, Hunteress
