I'm happy to say that I'm back! I have actually been dealing with being extremely homesick which caused all my other frustrations to surface. Not good at all. I am currently dealing with the holiday blues. But as painful and sad it may be, I shall not lose my positivity and joy that comes from this season and overall, life.
oh and p.s. enjoy this stop motion video.
I don't want to play with fire;
I don't, I don't.
The flame is beautiful;
I'm torn, I'm torn.
To touch is to burn,
To love one is to let the other go.
I don't want to play with fire,
I must blow this candle!
I must not play with fire;
I won't, I won't.

"Disturb us, Lord, when we are too well pleased with ourselves,
when our dreams have come true because we have dreamed too little,
when we arrive safely because we sailed too close to the shore.
Disturb us, Lord, when with the abundance of things we posses,
we have lost our thirst for the waters of life,
having fallen in love with life, we have ceased to dream of eternity,
and in our efforts to build a new earth,
we have allowed our vision of the new heaven to dim.
Disturb us, Lord, to dare more boldly, to venture on wider seas,
where storms will show your mastery,
where losing sight of land, we shall find the stars.
We ask you to push back the horizon of our hopes,
and to push us into the future in strength, courage, hope, and love."
— Francis Drake
I'm secluding myself from blogging again. I need to listen. I need no distractions. God wants to tell me something really important. I'll be back soon! You can check out my tumblr or follow me on twitter. Although I won't be there for a while too.
