Cardiology

Working on cardiology gives me a peace that surpasses understanding. I can't say it enough because I love it so much. I breath it and live it. I understand it. It is a part of me.

The real reason relationships fail

This comes from a great video I watched recently. It is linked below and I found it very insightful.  There are Four Basic Negative Emotions in all people.  - Anger (amygdala) - Disgust (insula) --> something that will hurt you. telling you that you should avoid it. It is biologically directed towards pathogens, but politicians use this to control people. Eg Wuhan virus, or republicans vs democrats - Sadness (dorsal anterior singular cortex) --> stems from losing something or someone you love - Fear (amygdala) Negative does not mean bad. It means these are the things that signal threat to us, from the outside world. Contempt is a combination of two negative emotions - Anger and Disgust When you express contempt / disgust, it is interpreted by the brain of your partner as "you think I'm a pathogen, and I need to be cast out". Even if you dont mean it. So dont roll your eyes, dont be sarcastic. When you are feeling that coldness that comes with Contempt, that is when ...

When God Says No

Okay so life has been pretty sweet lately. I've returned to Sydney, this time for good, and I've set myself up with a sweet little gig that only requires me to work 2 days a week, but pays me pretty much the same as when I last worked 6 days a week. Admittedly, I'm now much more qualified than I was back then, but these are still wins in life that I am celebrating. As part of my resettlement, I was unpacking and going through boxes. I almost threw a bunch of old notebooks away, but noticed that they contained notes from 2019 which was arguably the worst year of my life. Some of the best things I have written, have come from intense wells of hurt. Anyway, I decided not to waste the pain and kept the notes. I might share them here one day.  What I have decided to share for today are my notes on this topic - "When God Says No." I'm not sure what these notes were based on, but I can only imagine that I had listened to a sermon of some sort, presumably online.  Whe...

The Secret To Making Friends | Pastor Levi Lusko Sermon | Fresh Life Church

This is a great sermon and has taught me a fair bit about friendships. The below is an abbreviated transcript, because it has been worded so nicely I really couldn't say it any better than he has. You can't rush relational intimacy. It doesn't happen in a day. Sometimes in the eagerness, because we are so starved for actual people in our life, when anybody shows us any attention, we just come on so strong and lay it on so thick coz we're trying to Amazon Prime the relationship. But when it's just this tiny little thing, you just add tiny little twigs to it and a little bit of kindling to it. You can't get to the big logs right away. That little flame is not enough to take on that big log. So you need friendship kindling and that takes time. There are things in society today that have made it harder for us to develop friendships. There is an increased ease of movement. Where in the past, you would have lived and died in a similar location, these days, you can tak...
