| this is something important that Christians need to answer for themselves. 1. God is all powerful 2. God is loving 3. suffering exists in our world
i have my own idea for answering this question, and i'm curious what others think about the question. how does this situation resolve?

| Today is so flippin' good. It's like one of those mornings where you wake up and you know it's the start of something new, and it is! for me at least. I had lots of thoughts written down on paper last night, and this is what it led too, i guess. everyday, or every other day, I'm going to spend about an hour or maybe half an hour just writing ideas. Maybe this will lead to me writing other stories, but I think I need to use my imagination productively, if that counts as productive. There were a few other ideas too, but I'm not gonna share them here. My hope is that what i'm adding to my life will bring me closer to being the person God has for me to be. Last night it all sounded difficult but not now. I feel almost liberated, like if i had a bra I'd go burn it. and a few musicians for you to check out. Youtube Andy McKee, and also check out this song called "today is your day" by Apollo Sunshine.

| the first full week of school is about to begin. in some ways i've already let myself down this semester, but we can fix that. most of last week i hadn't been able to sleep well, and i think i know why now. but it's something i'm not comfortable talking about on this deal. once my stress got resolved, at least for me, i finally had good dreams again. if only Ali and Levi were here, i wish that one alot. well to be honest i didn't wake up this early to type on this, i have a few homework items to finish!

| break. haven't gotten too much done with my correspondence work. i've been reading alot though. I keep finding books around my room that i've been meaning to read but haven't done it yet. so i keep starting other books while i'm trying to finish a wrinkle in time. Nikita's blinkers aren't working so i've been stuck at home. i finished my mom's scarf. i've been up late, and waking up even later in the day, !but i'm ok with that! mostly though i think i'm ready to go back to school. so far for next semester the goal list includes learn mucho spanish vocab., turn into fit Doug!, go from a beginner to decent swing dancer, crochet a hat, buy and learn a lil somethin' somethin' on harmonica without turning emo, and help create a senior sermon/chapel that honors the inspiration we (this is a team effort!) have. i'm hoping to make additions to the list, and more importantly cross off completed items! |
