Humiliation vs Love



I was reading the book of Mathews in the Bible and was on CHAPTER 26, which is titled the "the Plot to kill Jesus", basically the CHAPTER narrates how Jesus was delivered to the authorities for his crucifixion.
It involved betrayal, humiliation, painful and shameful death for Jesus to give his love for us, to save us, to make sure that we still have a chance of direct relationship with God.Meditating about this made me learn that, in our day to day, this is almost the same thing happening in many different ways as follows;
  •  The most painful betrayal a person can get is from the people they love most and sometimes most betrayals come from the closest people to you, that know you well. Now the difference is that Jesus knew who was going to betray him and yet he just sat wit him calmly but the moment we know who will betray us we become so bitter, our love is tested and we sometimes want to cut off the relationship, but then this is what it means to love, sometimes you got bare it, forgive and still love them. when people love you, please be loyal.+-
  • Void promises. The People that you love the most will tend make promises to you and say this and that, some swear,, but most of the times they never come through or stick with us with what they promised, especially when faced with challenges. They will be the first to run away from you, or leave you alone. Look at how Peter said will not denie Jesus, but did it three times. I no longer believe in human promises, and i do not promise to others. 
  • Humiliation comes from people we love the most, the ones we care about the most. Because when you care about others the most, they tend to hurt you the most when they don't care about you, and sometimes they tend to take it for granted and don't see the damage they are doing to you.Mathew 26:67-68(Then they spit in his face and struck him. And some slapped him,saying, "Prophesy to us, you Christ! Who is it that struck you?") they mocked him and humiliated him in their best possible way but still his love for them never changed. And so when people show me love am going to give them love and care instead of humiliating them.

My views on the cryptocurrency world

A friend of mine mentioned to me something about cryptocurrency thing two years ago and i really never paid attention to it, mostly because i thought about the money theft and hacking things to do with internet. Then another friend of mine in Philippines told me again about this topic of cryptocurrency and how it is beginning to rock the world of money and investment, and i decided to give it my attention and start learning about it, just the basics of where to buy the coins,how to store them, how to sell and the charges involved, the types of them (bitcoin, litecoin, ethereum,zcash etc), their values, which one is leading, dropping, the knowledge of mining, renting and etc. It is basically a lot of information that one needs to really know what they are doing before investing. Watched alot of youtube videos explaining this concept of investment, and the wow! factor was that the value of investment is growing like a little too much and faster someone invested around $200 on bi...

Take riSKs

In order to achieve something great in life,you need to be ready to take some chances that might be quite hard, challenging and even fearful. Life is not that straight as we all want it to be. Most of the times people know what they want and what they should do but they are always afraid of taking chances, putting their vulnerability on the line because of the outcomes that are unknown but also could turn to be very positive. They find it easy staying in their comfort zone, overestimate the question of "what could go wrong'' and exaggerate the consequences of what might happen if it goes wrong'' and then we miss the step. Taking risks can give us a lot of benefits than we mostly think as follows, Taking risks opens our minds to new challenges and new opportunities that we have always been eyeing and haven't taken a step to. For example i am very shy person and i really don't know how to speak publicly, infarct i can faint when told to give a public sp...
