Another run in with my roommate tonight. Three times I asked him to turn the TV down, and three times he extended the wait time. I really feel that God has placed him in my life for me to be a positive influence.
I asked him if could use his Ipod touch to watch a movie or something and he responds "It's not the same, I want to watch TV."
In a minute he turned off the TV, and I found myself loosing control again. He goes " Im just ready for bed." and I responded in a firm well I'm not not ready, and was ready to play some songs on my laptop loud all night just to make a point.
All of his actions show that he really just dosen't know how to care. I think we can all relate to that, as babies all we knew was I, what I wanted, what was for Me. I am really just saddened by this. The little pain he is causing me right now won't matter in a few weeks, but I really hurt for his situation. I can see him trying to fill his void with the TV all day long. Watching the drams and pains of others to try and satisfy his emptiness.
As frustrated as I am, I think I'll use this blog to vent instead of being childish and just going with what the world will do in a situation like this. Lord I hope you keep me calm, and let me remember to love him, because love truly does cover a multitude of sins. It is getting harder and harder, and only three weeks of school left to make a difference.
Praise God! You are my rock and the only thing keeping me from just blowing up on him right now.
