No Possible Way

I had an interesting discussion with a very good friend. This discussion about God.

It made me think about why I believe in a God.

There are actually several reasons.

I guess I sum it up like this:

I don't think I would be where I am if there wasn't a God.

I would not be able to overcome my trials.

Stay optimistic.

Smile.

I would fall apart.

That is why I believe there is a God.

I have been saved from myself.

Basically...

Life is crazy!
Good, but crazy.
I'm going to the dance concert tonight.
I CAN'T WAIT!
Anywho today I realized, as much as
I didn't think it was going to happen.

I'm going to miss choir.
Sadness.

Sad Day.
But like they all say....





The Show Must Go ON.

Just Around The Riverbend

Today is rainy. Today is dreary, and today Avatar comes out
and I should be wearing blue. Any who I am here and I am now.
I'm actually getting really excited for college.
Yet am Melancholy at the thought of leaving High School.
I might--just might--miss the crazy-ness of this parallel universe.

Either way it is Just Around The Riverbend I have so much to do before
the end of the year.

It's all fun and what not. It's just coming so, so, FAST!

-Prom
-Senior Banquet
-Senior All-Night Party
-One Act
-LAST choir concert
-Work
-College Prep.
-And Much More.

This is Redonculous. Ahhhhhhhhhh

Up To The Mountain


Yesterday afternoon, we lost one of the greatest,

strongest, souls to be on this planet we call 'Earth.'

He was kind, benevolent, loving, smart, happy, and

so many things that I wish I could be. He lost his

battle to Brain Cancer. As I reflect on what has happened

I am sad, yet peaceful. I only pray for his mother.

Oh, what it would be lose your son. I can't even imagine,

but I tried. So, I wrote this. I could never justify her pain,

but I do want to empathize with her.

Nothing is as endless as a mother's love, and the look on her

face. Was destruction. The destruction of herself. She fell

apart. We all know he is in a better place, and we will meet

him again, but till then he must rush Up To The Mountain,

and save our spots, because we Love Him So. So very much.


"Pain fills my sternum to the point of exasperation; tears fill my ducts,
till I no longer can cry. I stare. I scream. He is gone: now he can fly.
I love him; I loved him. I'll love him till the day I go. Now, I must stand."

Today...was...Crazy.

It was...

Good...

Then...Bad.

Then...Good

Overall...it was okay.

It was just...okay *shrugs shoulders*

Can't really sum it up any other way.

Great English class...then I remembered...work.

Seminary. Snooze. I'm sorry. I couldn't feel it.

Choir + Lunch= funn with besties!

Theater = GREAT...Until I couldn't find my lines.

Now I'm frustrated.

Work is...work. Can't really justify it.

Yeah. It was a roller coaster ride today.

Poetry. Out let.

Vulnerable-abilty

Never seen your face—but I hear your voice.

Never felt your kiss—but I felt your heart.

Never was the best—but still you gave me love.

I fell—far.

You still watched me—cry.

Out of pity; out of pain, shame, compassion.

Now I see—me.

Thank you—thank you—

Dear God,

thank you—for loving me, for me.

Imperfections

So, I was an hour late for work today, because I was hopped up on

cold medicine and people kept making fun of me. :( It was no bueno.

But...I'm over it.

Went down to SUU yesterday. It was great! Would have been

better if this head cold would leave my being, but none the less

It was a good trip.

I love my parents.

I love my family.

I love my grandma (and grandpa).

I love them all.

More now than ever! Woot!

I should get a family pic up.

We'll see.............

Who Am I?

Definitely getting use to this whole technology thing. I'm learning so much. Totally just figured out

(literally just this second) how to play with the font. It's fantastic.

Anywho, just played with my info on Facebook from the last time I fixed it and I have changed so

much in the last three years, it's amazing. I can't believe it. I'm so lost, yet so found. I find myself just

stuck in the middle of this beautiful painting full of fabulous colors: red, orange, yellow, fuchsia,

marigold, aquamarine--and many others. Just trapped but not. More like lost. I see the colors, I

smile at them. I just have no stinking clue what to do with them. What do I do with them? Who Am I?

YOU MUST!!!

YOU MUST WATCH THIS!!! I watched it, and I couldn't breathe it's a Lady Gaga medley on

YouTube. Really, even if you don't enjoy Gaga, you must--MUST listen to this. I'm in

shock. It's eleven thirty and I may go into cardiac arrest it was so good!

Have you ever had one of those days...

Where you just have this revelation that your life is so good, and you have no idea how you got so blessed?

One of those days you realize you love your family and...

Your bestest friends really are the bestest and...

Saltine crackers are very satisfying...

All because of your environment. I don't want to grow up

yet...I really, really do!

Honestly, all I know is that my life could be thousands of degrees worse,

and that's what keeps me smiling. Because it's not worse.

I love you mommy.

I love you daddy.

I love you all.

Thank you,

Thank you, for believing in me more than I could ever believe in myself.


Thank you God.

Just...Thank you...

:)
Today was one of those days.

Best Seminary Class Ever!!!

You know, I've never been a fan of our "Conference in General" in seminary. I mean,

they are usually great, but today was a different story. It...was...FANTASTIC! The

messages were fabulously prepared, the spirit hugely influenced, and you could feel

love in the room. Each talk brought something we could take away with us. I can't even

describe how great I thought it was. Now it is merely a memory: a memory that has

changed my life. Truly. It has.





^^^^^ That's me an Arri at the Zoo...tee hee
