in our natural science 2 class, we were assigned by our professor to group ourselves and report about five latest technological advancements. one group in our class, particularly the biomen group, researched about cryopreservation.

i hardly remember the definition, but i do understand how the process goes. so i had to consult wikipedia (dont worry! for those who doesnt trust wikipedia with all their heart, people like me, im pretty sure this definition is correct!):)

Cryopreservation is a process where cells or whole tissues are preserved by cooling to low sub-zero temperatures, such as (typically) 77 K or -196 °C (the boiling point of liquid nitrogen). At these low temperatures, any biological activity, including the biochemical reactions that would lead to cell death, is effectively stopped.

so when the body is thawed, it comes back to life. they said that around 100 people had themselves cryopreserved. well, that could be a new way of committing suicide, right? if you're pretty much uncomfortable with the your life but you arent sure if you're ready to face death, you might as well try cryopreservation. haha... you're lucky if you're too emo to live and the cryopreservation process damaged your cells and you die in the end. tsktsk. naah.. that would be awful.

anyway, people who are with an incurable disease turn to cryopreservation, so in the future when medicine has already advanced, they would be cured and then they're going to be alive again-without disease. i dont know if it's really possible. it's the greatest gamble that ive ever heard. after i heard about that report, i immediately grabbed my notebook so i could share this to you. hehe..

it gave me an idea, you know. i mean, that decision of having to go through cryopreservation. they're like christians who are on the verge of dying to themselves. only a few more bible verses, a few more tapping by the Lord, a few more sunday sermons that theyd have to listen, poof! theyre gonna be changed. theyre gonna die to sin. but there are also people who wouldnt let God get to them. i mean, it's true, God touched their hearts and they felt it. it was good. but it was something they thought they can never be: christians. they're trying to resist like: ouch natouch ako. pero hinde..nakakahiya!

i felt that way. i was cryopreserved for many months after being touched by God. i felt sick. you know, it's like my old life was hanging by a thread. i had myself cryopreserved. a cold and numb christian. i freezed and stayed to my old self. i wouldnt feel anything, not even conviction, and i just stayed to my old self. frozen like that. i was lying there. you know, i was being boring. the funny fact about that part of my life, the cryopreservation days, was that when you look at me lying there, my face is frozen. lifeless. boring. ugly. just like when i was a cryopreseved christian. i was lifeless and ugly. because there's no fire burning within me. i was there waiting for something to bring me back to my old life. vices, perhaps. that wasnt a good thing to live for.

so if you feel like you've agreed to have yourself cryopreserved, spiritually, think again. before letting them put you on the 'bed' where they lay you and freeze you, take your decision back. i mean, let yourself die. be completely changed by God! yay..:)

He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness.-1 Peter 2:24a

thanks for reading this post! God bless you! i hope you all DIE! hehe..:)
