i never post anything.
but heres something....

"Some insist that they aren't influenced by any person or any religion, that they think for themselves. And that's an honorable perspective. The problem is they got that perspective from...somebody. They're following somebody even if they insist it is themselves they are following.

Everybody is following somebody. Everybody has faith in something and somebody.

We are all believers."

"This isn't irrational or primitive or blind faith. It is merely being honest that we all are living a "way"

"I'm convinced being generous is a better way to live.

I'm convinced forgiving people and not carrying around bitterness is a better way to live.

I'm convinced pursuing peace in every situation is a better way to live.

I'm convinced listening to the wisdom of others is a better way to live.

I'm convinced being honest with people is a better way to live.

This way of thinking isn't weird or strange; it is simply acknowledging that everybody follows somebody, and i'm trying to follow Jesus."

Rob Bell.

best book.honestly.

LIFE.

2006-06-07T20:21:22Z

we have no control over our emotions
or what will happen tomorrow
where we will be in 10 years.
happiness is not measured in clothes, how many friends you have, how good you look.
God has given me so much happiness over the past year or so...i can't begin to explain.
i don't think i even really started LIVING until i knew Him.
i wonder what would make me even think twice about drawing away from Him...
because i'm human i guess.
but when that happens my life begins to look like how it was a year or so back when i knew nothing about Him.
that is how much God impacts my life...every day.
i'm learning more and more that i can't make this on my own.

"It may not be the way
i would have chosen
when you lead me through
a world thats not my home
but You never said
it would be easy
You only said
i'll never
go alone"

It was a beautiful letdown
when i crashed and burned
when i found myself alone, unkown and hurt

it was a beautiful letdown
the day i knew
that all the riches this world had to offer me
would never do

In a world full of bitter pain
and bitter doubt
i was trying so hard to fit in
until i found out...

i don't belong here.

gosh do i love u switchfoot???

we had random conversations about stuffing dead animals and having your grandma turned into a diamond:

* having a stuffed dog in your convertable and it flying away

* stuffing it in a peeing position and setting it by the fire hydren

* stuffing squirrels, deers, birds, dogs, etc. and setting them in your backyard.

* and so i guess you can take the carbon or soemthing from a dead body and turn it into a diamond??? say hello to grandma! *puts out hand*

haha halarious! then we did a lot of kareoking!!! yesss! so now i have grease songs and what not stuck in my head. overall a great night!
