Landmarks

I finished another journal yesterday...ahhh.

It's always a 'lil bittersweet. This one I began on June 20th, 2010, and it's special because it contains my first heartbreak (heartbruise? It wasn't heartbreak). It's just all...laid out. I was going to type out the first entry and the last...after a quick review, no way. That's just too personal.

But I'll tell you this in the cheesy way I do: I'm excited :) New landmark.

So many answers in one little Psalm.

"Trust in the Lord and do good;
dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.
Delight yourself in the Lord
and he will give you the desires of your heart.

Commit your way to the Lord;
trust in him and he will do this:
He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn,
the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.

Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him;
do not fret when men succeed in their ways,
when they carry out their wicked schemes.

Refrain from anger and turn from wrath;
do not fret - it leads only to evil."


Psalm 37:3-8

My own little world.

It's 1 a.m., and all the lights are on in my room. Marla is in here, talking to Arri, who is straightening her hair. I can tell they're talking about serious stuff (semi-serious, that is), between (extreme) dancing and singing sessions.

I'm just vegging on my bed...as I have been for the past few hours. I don't even feel like I'm in the same room. My headphones are blessing me with Jon Foreman (my favsie of the faves), and all I'm doing is stalking people on Facebook. Not so hard to make me happy.

I feel that, at the moment, my life is pure chaos. There is no method to it, no organization. I don't have a plan for each day; I just kind of wake up, and it happens, and at the end I'm never quite sure what I accomplished.

Hilarity

I’ve recently begun reading a new book.

 

 

It’s Arri’s, and on the title page someone wrote a note:

“Christmas 2006

Dear Andrew and Sarah,
I am a great lover of books and this is one of my all time favorites.  As  I am giving all of your family a copy, I hope it will produce many scholarly discussions after reading it.

Love,
Aunt [Illegible]”

 

And how did Arri acquire this book?  Ebay.

 

Hopefully I’ll like it more than Andrew and Sarah did, and perhaps it will produce a few scholarly discussions in my life.  At least a few scholarly blogs perhaps?
