Faith

It’s soothing to know that, despite my shortcomings and imperfections, I don’t need to worry about my life; For whatever is meant to be will be brought about no matter what I do or mistakes I make, and what is not meant to be will never happen. I will find out whether I am meant to have more children, meant to continue this career path, meant to stay living in this place or at this level, simply by receiving what is meant to be and opening my eyes to the Graciousness that allows me to enjoy this life.

Thought for the day

There is far too much emphasis placed on the precedence of love nowadays. “Love can conquer all” and all that… What about kindness, chivalry, honesty, compassion? You never hear those virtues extolled (and especially not in kids’/teenage movies. Just “love” ,or, in my opinion, a very narrow, limited version of it that refers to attraction and being starry-eyed and ‘in love’). Falling in love seems to justify a myriad of sins, such as betrayal and falsehood. Love is wonderful, yes, but becomes poisoned if not imbibed with the other virtues.

At last, someone who thinks like I do!

This one had me in tears…So good!

“…Well, the battle raged, and shots rang out, and the two men fell to the ground And they look into the eyes of each other, and were shocked at what they found One man saw the mother of the other in that young man’s eyes And the other man saw the crying and screams of the other man’s beloved wife And the two men stared across that smoky field and whispered to each other “Maybe you weren’t the demon they said. Maybe you were really my brother But I’m glad we’re passing because I don’t think that I could forgive myself For fighting you, but maybe God will, and we can leave together in bliss”

“We’re gonna lose everything if we believe all the lies”

Love this new band…

On the beach.

I dipped my toes in the sea, and felt myself wash away.
Everything in life is in the sea.
Sand and stars. Flowers, mermaids and men.
One day I will be, too.
I will swirl around the toes of someone.
And beckon to them to come home.

So many memories…

This was a mainstay of when I was in my teens, and yet I still love it now I am in my twenties…Dear God, at the end of this month I will be officially in the “wrong” half of my twenties…I have no idea when I grew up, or how..
