touch your nose.


Wiggle your toes, why not. Be silly. Because “Today you are You, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than You.” {Dr. Seuss}. And you know what? Live your life. I know it sounds so ridiculously ridiculous and simply simple, but it's profound. In the span of all eternity, our lives are just a snippet, a raindrop, a snowflake, a sun ray, a mountain top, a grain of sand, a falling leaf, a passing car, a wheel going round. So make the most of it.

By the way, if you've seen Summer around, please tell her to come visit me. I miss her. She's due in a couple of days and I'm worried about her. Just pass on the message if you get the chance, thanks. Oh, and ask her to make this one real special. <3>

when life gives you lemons, make lemonade.


Actually, I prefer the saying, "When life gives you lemons, make orange juice and then everyone will wonder how you did it." ...But for the moment I think the one in the title is more suitable.

God sure works in mysterious ways, and even when I have no idea what He's doing I am so happy that I can trust in Him because His plan is perfect and good. I got baptized this last weekend, and it was just an amazing weekend all around, for the most part. I met someone named Zin, who is an atheist and really needs Jesus, just like we all do. We got to talking and I invited him to youth group, totally not expecting him to come. Sure enough though he showed up, and he came to church on Sunday! I am praying that God is working in his heart.
It's been crazy the last couple of days, and that's all I have to say about that {Forrest Gump said that too}.

Sigur Ros is coming out with a new album this month and it's beautiful. I listened to it this morning online and I love it, all of it. 

Hope you enjoyed this insanely random sane post, for all you random people that accidentally happen to come across my blog and wish you never had, but I thank you for the 0.3 seconds that you stay on it before realizing that this is not your friend's blog about how to actually make orange juice from lemons.
Cheerio.
