I begin to think there’s something going on, here. August 31st, Monday, I awoke to a crushing depression. Really, I could not do anything. Not even think of concentrating on anything related to my project. I had no idea why. Nothing had materially changed from Sunday, or even Friday. Then, late Tuesday night, for no apparent reason, I decide to look at a Korean newspaper. And there, I read that the actress Jang Jin-Young had just died, the day before. I had been madly in love with her (colloquially, not literally) ever since seeing her in a commercial for a movie she did in 2003. WTF? I mean, I never look at Korean newspapers, and I happen to look exactly when it would be on the front page news? And I get this crippling depression at just the same time? What does any of this mean?

10Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. 12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.
