I have a JOB!
Starting January 10th, I get to spend an hour every Tuesday teaching a 3 year old to make noise. Best job ever? I fink so.
Sometimes, resolutions seem so silly. I agree with Sarah, in that, why not just work towards things, starting anytime? But sometimes, it feels like there is so much to work towards. After all, I’m prone to depravity, and there will always be lots to work on. So I like to break it down. Focus on a few things at a time, while, all the time… I dunno. Doing my best? Staying connected to...
They know more than I do.

mon-cheri-amour asked: What's your favourite band? Ever? At the moment?

I definitely accidentally sent a message to my Uncle Christ, Auntie Caroline, and cousin, Steph. Oops. Haha.
Uhh...
My Physics AND Social texbook websites have awesome practice tests! YAY!
There’s one chapter of social that I actually remember anything about, and that is the chapter on the French Revolution, because the French Revolution was actually interesting. Now I just have to worry about the other 15 chapters.

teardropinthesea asked: Apparently there is a very small limit of characters for the reply box. Okay, so here is my question: Is there a difference between guarding your heart, and being open and honest with people? Because I always feel when people say this it is often perceived as encouragement to be closed off and reserved, yet how do we spread God's love and wonder if we don't live by example? How will...
And I am desperate for you. I’m lost without you.
HA.
I always thought that “When the going gets tough, the tough get going” meant that the tough just ditch out and run away, but it makes more sense that it means that the tough get to work on the issue. I can be a little slow, folks.
In the Secret
I don’t think I’ve ever really thought about the significance of the idea behind this entire song.
People seem to have very different ideas of what defines healthy relationships and healthy hobbies and healthy lives and healthy work ethic and, at the end of the day, blah blah blah; who cares what they say. I think I’ll just keep myself connected to the roots, and trust that that’ll keep me headed in the right direction.

I desperately need you.
I’ve gotten it in my head, somehow, that wisdom means being able to make it on my own. That wisdom equates to knowing how to deal with stuff and knowing what I’m doing. But I think wisdom is actually just realizing that I can’t do it on my own because I wasn’t designed to do it on my own. And I don’t always know how to deal with things. But, in wisdom, during...
My folks are humming the Messiah upstairs. It’s pretty fantastic. Also, I got a marble egg for Christmas.
Whut.
Nothing to do. Nowhere to be.
A simple little kind of free.
Sold my old drums.
Melissa, Kirsten, and mum: Impromptu dancing and singing and silliness all around. Dad: Falls asleep on the couch.

I know a young man who works very hard. At everything. He’s an excellent ballet dancer, and has been given the opportunity to dance in London and Boston, both of which he took. He is also an excellent violinist, and works very hard at school.
But I don’t think his body could take all that hard work, because one day, it just kind of stopped, and now he sleeps and sleeps and can’t...
One of my dad’s work friends is from France, and his wife is from Belgium. They speak French, Flemmish, and English. Their three year old son came up to me, said something in English, and then switched to French. How do you tell a three year old that you only speak English? And poco Espanol… maybe…

I like simple, but I tend to complicate things.

In the end
In the end, no hurting. In the end, no yearning. In the end, no suffering. No sadness or pain, in the end.
However… ‘til the end, there’s hurting. ‘Til the end, there’s yearning. ‘Til the end, there’s suffering; you’re waiting and waiting
‘til the end.
Bodies die. Souls will rise.
Hallelujah.
blueumbrella asked: ALL THAT FOR NOTHING. Goodness.

and I was all torn up inside.
I was...”
