thanks for food, shelter, friends, family. Sure these are the cliches, the pat answers to the question-What are you thankful for?
But I got to remind myself of all the great things I have in my life, I want to live in a place of thankfulness, and everything good that comes my way as not deserved, but a bonus. And I don't want to grow tired of doing good, pursuing good, pursuing change, believing in change, that people can change, and I don't want to change who I am because of society, but I want to change who I am because I've been affected by the truth. And I want to challenge what I believe, but not throw it all away because I'm unsure. And I want to be challenged but not confused. And I want to be happy. Not scared of the future. I want to be confident that I am enough and you won't get bored of me, tired of me, annoyed by me. And I want to understand other people, where they come from, they way they think, why they think that way, and I don't want to judge their ways as wrong, but I don't want to compromise my ways to conform, I want balance.
And I want to believe in God, I want to. I want to have something to hope in, I do not want to break the rules, i want to not care about rules, I want to believe in Love.

why

We are girls, and in us, a desire to nurture-and we see brokenness and potential at the same time.-Schnicole

hey you!

hey you! yeah you...

you've affected me.

So much for being open minded,

so much for not learning how to say no when coffee--or tea--is on the table.

now here I am-- forgetting all the reasons why not; while you--forgetting the reasons why at all.

Why at all did your mind go crazy, thinking all those things over someone who never really was quite that great.

Why at all did you say all those things that you wonder now were they even true--would you say them again, probably not.

I like to forget the reasons why not, if not for facebook I would keep that up for longer...

My Uncle Al's facebook status

Hey, I am not calling you beautiful as an adjective comparing you to some static lumped outward image of what I have raised up as beautiful, rather I am calling you beautiful as an adverb embracing that dynamic, unique, glowing, ever growing, life giving, creative quantum of activation that shines through in the sparkle of your eye... You being You... Just as You Are. You are beautiful!!! (Albisan 2010)

Everything is permissible for me...
...but not everything is beneficial
Everything is permissible for me...
...but I will not be mastered by anything.

Our father, who is in heaven
Hallowed by thy name,
Your kingdom come
Your will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread
and forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation
but deliver us from evil
for Thine is the kingdom
the power and the glory
Forever and ever
Amen.
