Hope everyone had a fabulous, blessing-filled day. Please let me know if there’s anything I can do for you to contribute to having such days in the future.
“Be Holy, for I am Holy.”
It’s so simple.
Yet no one wants to do it.
Leather.
Leather.
Yellow foam protrudes out,
shedding its innards from within.
Makes sense.
I’ve had ol’ Bessy Lou for 7 years now.

Makes sense.
I’ve had ol’ Bessy Lou for 7 years now.
The torn, ripped driver’s seat goes to show
how much we’ve been through.
That night when I locked the keys inside,
or the day I decided to push her to 94 mph,
or perhaps when cruel cold ice almost ruined us,
oh and the pretty girl I kissed after our first date.
It seems like there is much more
to this battered piece of dry skin.
Bessy Lou and I aren’t so different.
Life has worn on us.
It has beaten us up.
It takes us to new places,
but it always brings us back home,
only a little less mint than before.
I am her.
I am her cracked seat.
Poetry!
I am really looking forward to becoming a better writer and poet in the next few months. I’ve learned so much about creative writing in my Poetry class in the past 3 sessions.
It’s stinking amazing.
Get ready world.
I’m gonna be getting my poem on.
Look for random poems I’ll put up that I turn in for assignments!
FUN.
One day this body will no longer be able to contain the amount of grace that was once poured out for it.
Serve Her.
The grandest gesture a gentleman can grant a woman is simply washing her feet.
“Don’t worry about the future… the future is safe. Really, really safe…”

Thank God for peace beyond all understanding. Didn't expect to feel so peaceful today.
Blessed.

So. The universe is stretching apart and will reach a state of maximum entropy, or the inverse of gravity will catch up to the expansion of the universe, causing it to crush back in on itself.
Either way, the universe is screwed.
With our future already set, why bother to do anything?…
Can I just say how brilliant and amazing my friends are? This is prime rib.
The best way to overcome selfishness is servanthood.
“My grace is sufficient for you.
My power is made perfect in weakness.
Therefore I will boast more gladly of my weaknesses.
So that Christ’s power will rest upon me.
For the sake of Christ then.
I’m content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities.
For when I am weak.
Then I am strong.” —2 Corinthians 12:9-10

Lament.
The truth is, I am foolish.
I want to say so many things and and understand why I’m having such a hard time dealing with stuff. I’ve been here before. But much worse. Yet somehow I feel just as much pressure on my chest when I think about it.
I hope…
