Day 234. There have been times in my life in which I would question why things could happen to me if there were a God who loved me. But then, so many instances in my life happen in ways that is hard to believe is simply coincidence, and these things always bring me back to my Faith.

Day 230. There's this guy that I went to high school with. Never really cared for him and I find his comments to often times be annoying and arrogant. Today he gives me some advice on dating and it's the worst advice I have ever heard so I put down my passive personality to ste the record straight with him.

Day 224. More news unfolds for the careers of creative talents such as James Gunn, Chris Hardwicke, and Dan Harmon, all of which were recently accused of bad behavior and having to deal with possible repercussions for their behavior. I talk about what this could mean for the industry. Also, I end with my comedy set from tonight about growing up Asian in a small town in the 80s.

Day 204. As I begin preparing for my upcoming vacation with my kids, I have time to ponder my thoughts on what the Bible actually means in today's climate and formulate a new idea as to why there is an Old Testament and a New Testament. Part 1 of 2, I speak to the Old Testament and why God decided it needed to come to an end to make room for a New Testament.

Day 202. Amidst all of the firecrackers outside, I am reminded of a not so great memory of dating from before my marriage and the continued engagement with this person today really brings it home that I don't ever want to be in the position again where any of my decisions in life has to include one other to be on board with those life decisions.

Day 198. I slight change in plans but I am able to still talk to my friend who got divorced shortly before I found out about my impending divorce. I see similarities between his divorce and mine. I also learn that my other friend has had a change in heart when it comes to his life philosophy.

Day 197. Saturday evening, I will be hanging out with some old friends. The significance of these old friends involve history between us, but more recently, one of these friends got divorced 3-4 months before my wife announced we were separating. It will be interesting talking to this friend for the first time since his and my divorce.

Day 196. It's been years since I have felt like I was a part of a family outside of my own biological family. And now with my own family partially broken up, the desire to belong has become greater and tonight's open mic opened my eyes to my potential new family.

Day 192. You have to be careful when you are still healing from heartbreak because sometimes the most random things can trigger old feelings and then you are suddenly a blubbering mess by the koi pond. Today, a Billy Joel song does this to me.
