"Exposed beyond the shadows
You take the cup from me
Your dirt removes my blindness
Your pain becomes my peace"

I'm speechless, literally speechless.
& that doesn't do much when you try to write on a blog now does it?


I'm not angry, I'm not happy, and I'm certainly not content, but then maybe I am slightly happy. Can you be happy when you feel that you were treated wrongly? I don't know, I didn't think so, but now I am wondering if it is possible.

1 Exam left, 24 hrs and I will be free.

without God my grades would be far from possible, and I am so thankful, more then you could imagine, way more.

it's funny how something so little, can encourage so much, and so many people.

you've opened my lips, I can praise you
forever
generations will hear of what you have done for me
and I will never
never.
cease to praise you
for even in the valley you are with me
and at the peek your voice still echoes through my inmost being
I will praise you
for I am
intimately and wonderfully made
Marvelous are your Works
my soul knows them full well

and when the quietness of the night swoops in, I see your handiworks by the steady beat of my heart.
and when my body fails
I will hear your call and see you enthroned in the majesty's
holy, holy, holy
are you My God almighty
and with all I am
I fall out your feet
and proclaim
even in the stillness you were with me
you guided my steps
you gave me strength to overcome in hard times
and you power was manifested in my utmost weakness

there is not one like you Oh holy God
let my heart never wander from your constant truths
let my memory never cease to fail to remind me of you marvelous deeds
for you are the one that brought me out of my slavery
into your marvelous light
day after day I will recount your marvelous deeds
day after day
let me proclaim to the nations,
My God how great you are.


please?

Don’t you hate when things don’t work out?
Don’t you hate when you think you’ve finally got it figured out and then your heart lets you know that you don’t?
Don’t you hate when denial is thrown in your face?
Don’t you hate when you’re finally over that and then you find this?
Don’t you hate when you just don’t get why?
Don’t you hate how confused you are even when you say you’re not?
Don’t you hate when you say the wrong thing?
Don’t you hate that you ruined it the first time?
Don’t you hate when you want to say something so badly but you know you can’t?
Don’t you hate how it’s happened before?
Don’t you hate that mirror sometimes?

Don’t you hate how easy it is to give up?

Don’t you?



There are days when I’m in love with people and then there are days when I wonder why anyone would be in love with me.

Sometimes, it's been so long since you have had a really good time, you forget what it's like. and then you really want more, and never want it to end.
-that's all

a few outrageous thoughts

If I have learned anything in the past 2 days it’s that anything can happen and anything will happen.

I have also come to realize that hearts are complex and we’re all liars.
