The Avalon Motel

You've got to wonder what the story is behind the Motel in this 1965 postcard that leads to this: http://tinyurl.com/ybbz6e7. Check out the Google Street View. It's close to the same angle.

Ignorance, Avoidance and Falsity

Allow me to be overtly oblique...
A good captain knows when to break the Prime Directive.
I should know how to listen when God is telling me to intervene.
A good captain knows how to keep his ship from running aground.
I should have followed, listened and obeyed.
I should have also seen the destruction that comes from obeying and running my ship into the rocks.

Feeling the need to even write this is a depressing acquiescence to reality.

If I had to chosen a life with Christ based on the life I live on earth, it would never have happened. I would have continued to live the life I did. I would not be a Christian. It is a unfortunate thing that many make these decisions based on a mortal life, not the consequences of eternity.
Irrelevant.
This post is not about that.

I lost all my friends after salvation. I conceded to this as normal, weighing it against the greater goals. The same thing has happened again. Thought not physically lost as before; the loss is due to the failings of character. This is a loss of trust on my behalf and a loss of caring on theirs.
I am left with just questions.
Why even bother?
What's the point, when all that trusting leads to is heartache?
Why bother to open my heart in the first place?

Right now I feel that the Christians I know are the most self absorbed, conceited, immature, thoughtless, unkind, unloving, cruel, disloyal people I know.
With all that's wrong with the world, and with all the things to be worried about; how can some people be so short sighted and petty?
I've decided that I just need to stop caring. I don't want to deal with it any more. It's my own fault for thinking that people care more than they do and have invested in friendships more than they have. Clearly I am counted among the disposable, and if that's the way people want to be then shame on me for falling for it.

The simple method to avoid hurt to to avoid caring.
It's always worked before. Clearly it is time to return to a proven method.

There's a song title in here somewhere...

...I just can't place it.
