It's quite sad if we find ourselves simply 'forcing' ourselves to have a quiet time with Him, dragging our feet without even one ounce of zeal to get to know Him. He loved us first, and it will remain that way forever and ever. Every opportunity to get to know Him, to understand just how much He loves us, and how lucky we are to have been chosen, is a blessing -- an opportunity to grow as Christians, to grow in Him :) Because every bit of time spent with the Lord is time well spent~! hehe.

I had no idea that <em>Haruhi</em> was based on a novel series, though I half-expected it to be based on a manga (like most animes). But now you made me really excited about the books! A strong time-traveling theme to rival even Back to the Future, a story that extends far beyond Haruhi's 1st season anime, and character development for Nagato! *resists inner fanboy's urge to faint* Researching further on the web, I see people have translated it for online reading. But I'll probably end up slowly buying the books as they come out... they're finally seeing American release apparently. But thanks again for the tip. I look forward to both reading the <em>Haruhi</em> novels myself and seeing the release of Haruhi Season 2. =) And there's an explanation of that cat? Fantastic. But all this reading is going to blow away my weekend time. Fantastic! xD That is very interesting, thank you for pointing that out.

The episodic moments of Haruhi are snippets from the more advanced novels, and the main story is only based on the "Melancholy" novel. The hopefully-upcoming second season, "The Disappearance of Suzumiya Haruhi" is based on the fourth novel of the same name (and maybe it includes chapters from other novels). What is curious is that the main character, instead of being Haruhi, is Nagato Yuki. After reading the novels, I felt compassion for poor Nagato. As a spoiler, all the events depicted in "Disappearance" have only one cause: Nagato finally gets tired of Haruhi and/or falls in love with Kyon. You'll see what I mean when you read the novels or watch the second season. Also, there is a lot of time-travel adventures rivaling - no, surpassing -the whole "Back to the Future" trilogy. This is, among other reasons, why I recommend reading the Suzumiya Haruhi Light Novels. The narration is fantastic and humorous - Kyon's sarcasstic comments are simply unmatched, and I laughed at a lot of them. It's sad that the anime skips too many. By the way, the Adventures of Asahina Mikuru Ep. 00 - a whole chapter is dedicated to the making of that movie, and you'll understand the true reason why Shamisen the cat speaks. If you want to read the books, watch the Anime first. It's my favorite series now. Perhaps you don’t know that this Anime is based on a series of light novels by Tanigawa Nagaru.
