| Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
: ) I don't think I can even possibly articulate how blessed in life I feel right now- for family, for friends both new and old, for school, for general happiness, for salvation.
God you are too good to me, and I stand amazed at the truly boundless limits of your faithfulness day by day.
I’ll never stop praising You for all the things You’ve done for me…

| God is good. And that's really all there is to it.

| I am stuck somewhere between J.D. Salinger and Don Miller.
"Certain things should stay the way they are. You ought to be able to stick them in one of those big glass cases and just leave them alone. I know it's impossible, but it's too bad anyways." (Holden, Catcher In The Rye)
Me "Everybody has to change, or they expire. Everybody has to leave, everybody has to leave their home and come back so they can love it again for all new reasons." (Author's Note, Through Painted Deserts)

| The pieces of this puzzle fit so perfectly and yet the picture looks nothing like the one on the box. It's all a matter of perspective isn't it? You'd think that by now I'd have at least some control over my emotions, but I think I still need someone to teach me how to change an attitude. I'm trying to tread the fine line between self-restraint and persevering aggression. On the one hand, there's value in the lesson that we ought to keep chasing after the things we really want in life, you know... that cliched message of holding fast to dreams. Yet at the same time, I wonder if I am compromising who I inherently am. Life only makes sense to me in paradoxes now. | | |
