The dual substance of Christ--
the yearning,so human,so superhuman,of man to attain God...
has always been a deep inscrutable mystery to me.

My principle anguish and source of all my joys and sorrows from my youth onward
has been the incessant merciless battle between the spirit and the flesh…
and my soul is the arena where these two armies have clashed and met.

--Kazantzakis

----here’s nothing to do with the book and the movie as well…----

Ka v noticed 2 things recently:

1.Mashing the potato on plate can make Ka feel like a German…
even my noodles can’t compare with Kant’s, Hegel’s or pasta…

It came to Ka when Ka was wasting life on waiting(as waiting to die as Ka always do) in a fast food where is a good place for daydreaming.
Papa once told Ka that staring blankly is a recreation developed by the Japanese who are suffering horrible social pressure.
Well,the situation is not the same to Ka. …Easy life easy mind…

2.Ka can be accustomed to lots of things such as the sore of flesh.

Like the obfuscation between reality and imagination of a kid who is drunk in fairy tales, Ka can’t tell the difference of pain and pleasure after being ill-treated by sick toes. My name is masochist and life is the sadist. (- -this’s d*mn right…)
Papa, over and over, hurt Ka in Ka’s sick toes indeliberately(?) (- - D*mn it!),which may cause endless aftermaths that push Ka into the abyss of misery.

Whatever, Ka survived and stood up once again !(囧rz the sentence may be excessively epic…)

Combining 2 things mentioned before in Ka’s way, one (actually no one except for Ka herself) can conclude that the title of this blog and the selection above aren’t the irrelevance.

Great people and ordinary people share some same features as being a human.
Through pains humans were born and grown.
The pain is that our mothers endured and we ourselves are enduring.
Never underestimate the strength of a human. 

Son of my Lord resurrected from death.
Afterwards, suffering from the crucifixion becomes a way of some followers to reach the god.

Ka is not among those followers,but aroused by the fruits of alternative crucifixion which most great people v taken.

The song, Art of life(strongly recommended), is just a initiator of Ka’s idea because it’s that sad and stunning.
The melody stabbed right on Ka’s heart and the intone can’t help lingering on Ka’s mind.
No wonder X is one of the most excellent bands of world. and Ka can’t accept the it’s title of Eastern Nirvana.
(Recently Ka prefer X…)

Back to the theme, the struggle of spirit and the suffer of flesh embiggen a little person.

JC
and great persons did it.

====================

Crucify my life,
if my life is alive.

Sounds like a lyric,huh?
