Haven’t added new music to my touch in about 6 months, but putting it on shuffle is doing surprisingly well with the music selection.
Oldies are goodies.
Psalm 36:3 Happy Easter everyone :)
“Because Your Love is better than life, I will praise you as long as I live.”
Today, I wanted to spend some time really thinking about what Easter actually means to me. A question that kept reoccuring in my mind was, “Why would you die for me? ME? Of all people?” followed with “I don’t deserve Your Love.” I will never be able to fully comprehend that...
Complete and total relaxation:
Taking a bath in my bathtub, which resides underneath an open window overlooking the ocean, on a day where there is just a slight breeze that circulates that salty beach air, mixed with a vanilla scented candle burning on my sink. There would be no sound besides my husband and children laughing downstairs, and eventually, that sound would be so inviting that I would...
Tonight
I’m thankful for best friends that I don’t deserve. The friends who listen to me complain for literally days and still love me the same. The friends who know what songs make me smile no matter what mood I’m in. The friends who don’t keep tabs on my faults. The friends who offer me a listening ear, a warm smile, and most of all, a loving heart.
Tomorrow I have a lot to...
The three hardest words for me to process:
Let it be.
“You can shed tears that she is gone, or you can smile because she has lived. You...”
– Praying that I’ll be able to remember this when that day comes, and remembering Psalm 31.
“When all other forms of expression fail, music says what is necessary. It can...”

Prayer is the answer to every problem in life. It...
This is, by far, the greatest quote I’ve ever read. I absolutely love it. <3
127 Hours.
I just finished watching it a little while ago, and am blown away. SO good. James Franco definitely did Aaron’s story justice, in my opinion.
My favorite aspect of the movie (besides, of course, the amazing story and getting to look at James) was the way it was shot. Certain frames were just so aesthetically moving, and interesting; they really highlighted, what I felt to be, key aspects...
Musique.
These songs have meant something to me throughout the past three weeks at some point or another. All of them all worth listening to, and in no order of importance. A more mellow mix, to anyone who was wondering what they’re getting themselves into.

Today.
Our first senior meeting was today, and I went through a variety of emotions. I was…
Sad, because I wasn’t sitting in the front with the Top 20/CSF Life Achievers. I was regretting the fact that I didn’t work harder to achieve that honor.
Bittersweet, because of the time that I’m experiencing. Leaving high school is definitely bittersweet. Bitter, because I’m a big...
“The best thing you could do for anyone that you love, is be happy. And the very worst thing that you could do for anyone that you love, is be unhappy, and then ask them to to try to change it, when there is nothing that anybody else can do that will make you happy. If it is your dominant intent to hold yourself in vibrational harmony with who you really are, you could never offer any action...
I haven’t posted an actual thought of mine in a while, so I thought I’d post some things going on.
Sometimes it would be nice to feel beautiful. To be told that I’m beautiful. Oh well. There’s bigger problems in life to deal with.
I love my friends :) Laughter with them is one of my most coveted things about life.
I’ll miss my mom this week, since she’ll be...
Times.
I know I need You. I need to love You. I love to see You, but it’s been so long. I long to feel You. I feel this need for You. And I need to hear You, is that so wrong?
Oh. Now You pull me near You. When we’re close, I fear You. Still I’m afraid to tell You, all that I’ve done. Are You done forgiving? Oh can You look past my pretending? Lord, I’m so tired of...
If a guy ever put this much thought into me, I... →

:) :) :)
This weekend was PERFECT. I absolutely love celebrating birthdays and it is extra fun when it is one of my best friends’ special days :) I am so thankful for all of the amazing people that God has blessed me with in my life, it is really SO much more than I could have ever deserved. If I could put into words how special my best friends and family are, I would; but, I don’t think there...

The most beautiful sea:
hasn’t been crossed yet.
The most beautiful child:
hasn’t grown up yet.
Our most beautiful days:
we haven’t seen yet.
And the most beautiful words I wanted to tell you
I haven’t said yet…
