my thoughts are all abounding but when I bring them to the keyboard they leave. so I will just type and hope something effecient comes out.
The past is a strange thing...actually, almost everything is a strange thing in my mind, so we will not get into that argument. for some people, they wish they could erase their past and all that they have done, or everything that's happened to them. For others, they wish they could go back and just enjoy the times they had.
For me, it is the latter. I wish I could go back one year and stay there. I am in a valley and my mind is filled with questions and troubles, and I rather dont know what to do with them. And I really rather hate going to other people with them because
1. it is just rude to complain all the time, and rather selfish at that.
2. many people dont quite know what to do when they see such a serious side to me, and just turn away.
hmmm....I feel like one of those people who just shares their depressing life and trudge through myspace looking for pity and somebody to cry to.
well, I will have you know this. I am not looking for pity. that is the last thing I need. and I am not usually in this humbug sort of mood, so dont think that this is my permanent resolution. I just need to purge onto a blog, for too many of these feelings inside me tend to well up and just create a mess.
I miss being with people, and I miss being away from people. I miss the fun times I had with friends, and I miss the silent walks I used to have. I miss it...all of it.
My life is not over, no. It is yet the end of the beginning. there is going to be times in my future better than the times I have had in my past. there is going to be more joy than I could ever dream of. that is what keeps me going. but right now, it is a valley walk. a time of reflection, direction, and focus.
God's telling me to remember Him. I keep losing focus on HIM! The path is quite narrow, and I keep stumbling. but everytime, I look up and He is still there. it's not a walk right now, it is a crawl. but I am still comin.I'm still comin.
Just cause you fall, doesnt mean you have to stay down. it just means you know. you know how it feels to fall, and all the pain it causes. you know how to keep from falling the next time. but what you need to learn is how to GET BACK UP! keep falling, and keep picking yourself back up. and when you cant pick yourself back up, God is still there. He is there to lift you up again. dont stop.
dont stop.

| I would like to meet an avid songwriter or writer. I would think that their minds are remarkably tortured with thoughts. For me, writing is an overflow of the heart. Or at least, it can be. Sometimes my thoughts will become so strong and so full that unless I write them out, I will just get a headache. And maybe that is when quality stuff is made…when it flows from the heart. If it doesn’t then there is no substance to the thought, the idea. When a musician plays, how much better it sounds if he throws his entire BEING into the song. If he does not, then it is just a song.
In the Bible, there is a passage that talks about love (1 Corinthians 13) and it tells how without it, you are nothing. you can have all the wisdom of man and without love, you will gain nothing. I believe it is the same when you put forth a skill that you have. If you are a writer, then you must have a passion, a love for writing, or else it will just fall apart.
I am tired with Hypocrisy in this world. But even more so, I am sick with compromise. So many (I am speaking mainly to Christians now) have compromised with the world. I do not leave myself out of this category of people, for I am with the same sin, but I have also recognized it. It is SO easy to get lost and go with the flow. It is a strong flow, one that is all too easy to get swept away in, and the worst part is that people don’t even realize it! And when they do, they feel the need to defend themselves for they are afraid. They afraid what would happen if they lost all the luxuries that secularism has given them. They are comfortably numb. Christian friends, we must surrender our LIVES to Jesus. He died for us, a sacrifice, so let us LIVE for him…a LIVING SACRIFICE. And not just part of us…no, not just one part that goes to church on Sunday and performs Godly deeds every once in a while through the week, no…ALL of us.
Total surrender to God can be a scary thought. Especially if you have your life rooted in the world. There is a lot you must lose, but think of the REWARD! Think about what God will give to you, if you live entirely for HIM! Some of you might be thinking that this is an impossible task, but it says in 1 Corinthians 10:13 that “No trial has overtaken you that is not faced by others. And God is faithful: He will not let you be tried beyond what you are able to bear, but with the trial will also provide a way out so that you may be able to endure it.” It will be hard, no doubt. but the reward is worth it, so worth it.
Spend some time thinking bout this…do not read this and move on. Grab it and learn something from it.
