So, I turned 17 on Saturday.
For some reason that has become something that is extremely odd for me to try to grasp. 17 is still young, it’s terribly young, but yet it shocks me that a whole year has passed again. And honestly, this was quite a year.
Yesterday morning at Church my friend Jess came [...]

I kept saying that I was going to write about the missions trip that I was on in Tennessee June 16th-21st. I finally am; & I’m kind of eager to… but I want to share one story in particular.
Our second day on the missions trip my Youth Group & the adults who came along split [...]

So, I’ve never thought my life as one to be blogworthy… but I still didn’t think that’d lead to me not writing for over 2 months! I’ve had countless people come up to me during the weeks and ask, “have you just stopped writing or what?” and I’ve had people leave comments on here asking [...]
A Man’s Thoughts…

Today I saw and talked with a man that I greatly respect; Nazih. I’ve known him since I was born and have loved my times of talking with him ever since. He’s in his early 60’s and his opinions on things have always left me wondering about my own. This 60 year old man who [...]
Simply Good

Today is simply GOOD. I’m sitting in my room looking out the window. The shining sun is creating shadows of twigs from bushes dancing across my drawn curtains. The grass outside is actually beginning to turn green; the brown “grass” is finally being covered. Signs of Spring my friends! And Bethany Dillon is [...]
Something foriegn

I haven’t written in a month. How I did it, I don’t know. Why I did it, simply because I didn’t want to write about the struggles and valleys that I faced during the past month. I don’t think I’ve ever grown or struggled so much in such a short amount of time.
To sum [...]

*First of all, if you haven’t read my lastest posts “Losing Sleep and Other things Part I and II” please do that… and then come back to this one. *grin*
I woke up this morning at 7:30 after re-setting the alarm 2 or 3 times after it first went off at 6:45. Last night when I [...]

I’ve been up for over 2 hours now. The sun is slowly rising on the opposite side of the house, but I am finally able to look out my bedroom window and see the sun’s glistening reflection on the houses across the street. Tis good friends.
I think I’m going to try to get [...]
Mending things…

Ahh… its been over a week since I’ve written. I kept looking at the date of my last blog during this week and wondered why I haven’t written. I’ve had things to share, but for some reason I just haven’t shared them.
I’m a writer, I love the power of words, I’m drawn to them. Infact, [...]
Honesty and the written word…

Good evening friends…
I don’t know what it is about me – but lately I’ve been wanting to write on here more then in my own journal. I’ve also grown to realize that I’m becoming one who isn’t afraid of honesty – even though it hasn’t always been that way. I’ve realized that I’m one who [...]
