A broken heart is an open heart and open hearts can learn and be changed.

Hey ya’ll, remember that video going around with the guy singing Bon Jovi at the gas pump? and then his wife sang a song and then they were on Jay Leno? I found out he’s from my town and graduated at one of our high schools. hahah
I find beauty in all things authentic, pure, and eternal.
And so I value honesty, I value holiness, and I value the soul.

The first symptom of love in a young man is timidity; in a girl boldness.

God,
why is the sky blue?
I don’t want some scientific answer,
but why you chose it to be blue,
and the water, too.
Is it the same reason facebook’s main color is blue?
When Jesus came down, did he die knowing one day that people would be making statements on the internet about how they think the world should be,
or what kind of slushee they are having from target?
What’s your favorite color?
Does it hurt you more when I lie, or when I forget to love?
Will I ever fall in love?
How can I make all the suffering end?
Is saying I love you, even enough?
Who doesn’t feel loved, who is the one person who needs love more than anyone?
Can I go to them?
Why do parents leave?
Why do people hate?
Will I ever get married?
Why do marshmallows have gelatin in them?
Would you be with the picketers or would you be the one in the homes, loving people, having dinner with them?
Would you be telling me I was wrong, or would you be hugging me?
What does it look like to really and truly love?
Do you really hear us all when we talk to you?
How do you keep all the voices in order?
Do I really look like what the mirror shows me?
How did you feel about The Office finale?
Do you ever cry?
Do you weep when I degrade myself?
Do you love yourself?
Do you ever get self conscious or anxious about anything?
Did Jesus have acne?
Tell me, God, will everyone be with you in heaven?
Why does popcorn ceiling exist?
Is there a wrong way to love?
Why can’t I tell everyone in the world that I love them?
Why are plane tickets so expensive?
Are you listening?
How much do you love the hurting people?
What happened to the world, when did it become so gray?

I don’t have a lot of money. I don’t have a nice phone or a fancy name brand anything (except a pair of shoes I found at goodwill). But I do have Jesus; I am made in His image. I do have supportive, caring parents who understand that God’s call on my life is going to be very different and hard. I have good, Godly friends that love me & encourage me. I have the best friends in the world, honestly. Even the best acquaintances. I am the richest woman in the world simply because of that.
Instead of saying “I don’t have time” try saying “it’s not a priority,” and see how that feels. Often, that’s a perfectly adequate explanation. I have time to iron my sheets, I just don’t want to. But other things are harder. Try it: “I’m not going to edit your résumé, sweetie, because it’s not a priority.” “I don’t go to the doctor because my health is not a priority.” If these phrases don’t sit well, that’s the point. Changing our language reminds us that time is a choice. If we don’t like how we’re spending an hour, we can choose differently.

The Doctor Who season finale was so emotional but it was SO GOOD. such an excellent way to lead into the 50th anniversary episode. I’m so stoked.
Slouffe girl. She is actually literally slouffe girl.
