Keep
I just realized this today…and maybe you’re the same way, but I’ve never been able to leave anyone behind. Its like a piece of me stays with the people I’ve known. I remember the smallest of interactions with past friends, and the most passing of mentions and references refreshes my memory- and I wonder where they are now, and if they’re happy, and if they ever think...

Push
These days I’m really captured by stories of pushing, of striving, of endurance. It seems like a rare thing these days, to really try for something, push for dreams, and strive towards a goal. Maybe we’ve come by everything too easily, maybe we just haven’t had a reason to… whatever the case, I’m ready to start pushing, exploring, growing. And I can’t help but...

Turning Page
Hey everyone! I notice I have alot of new followers out there and I’m grateful for you all. You’re so special. As 2011 comes to an end I’m thinking about the things that went right, and the things that went wrong this year, and being honest, there was quite a bit of both. Not only in my life, but in the world in general. People losing jobs, people getting second chances,...

We Bought A Zoo
Go see it. I saw it and I’ve got to say, just in time to say goodbye to 2011, I have seen one of my favorite movies of the year. Beautiful story, beautiful filming, beautiful thoughts.

Hold On To The Good
Hold on to the Good.
Hold onto the good- it’s a phrase I’ve been repeating to myself a lot recently. I’ve been feeling like I’ve lost my equilibrium, quite unsure of everything. It’s amazing how everything ebbs and flows, and before you know it, everything feels uncertain. I’ve been thinking a lot about dreams lately; where I want to be, what I want to do, who I want to do it with, and I must...

Feel
I’m aware, today, of the rain on my window, the heart in my chest, and the beauty that can be found in just living sometimes, just loving sometimes. Today. I’ve got the most incredible sense of ragged, rugged life in my veins.

Covers
Yes, I may secretly duck under my covers in the fetal position at random times during the day. Yes, this growing up thing isn’t a bed of roses. Yes, I may swallow down panic sporadically throughout the day. Yes, I will hold on to He who is greater than me. Don’t let me go.

The Times
I sat down at my desk today and took it in. Life and living and death and dying and starvation and riots and desperation and needs and wants and love. It seems like things are getting worse. All over, people are facing hard times. People lose their jobs, people lose their lives, people lose their common sense and humanity. I’ve been watching the news on Somalia, glued to the screen and not...

Curve
I learned about the bands Dry the River, Chapel Club, and Life in Film months and months ago. They will be huge. I just like being ahead of the curve like that. You heard it here first, folks!

That’s when it hits you that there’s hope. Hope for those dreams that seem impossible right now. It’s not too late to start over. There’s still time to make those grand schemes come true.
