Goodbye Social Media,
I have to leave you for a while, and just do the things that count. My blog will be blocked for a considerable amount of time, I suppose. We’ll see how things go. I’d like to, for a while, read all the books I’ve been meaning to, and to spend all the time I’ve been meaning to spend alone with my Father, and paint on all the white blank canvasses in my...

I have been rather neglecting this blog, in the aspect of writing my own posts. So with that being said, I will write an account of what has been going on in my life so far:
I’m going to most likely, be sent back to my home school, located walking distance to my house. I still have until after the March Break to decide if I really want to, but I’m glad that the...

Anonymous asked: What city do you live in?
On Monday evening I was at my piano lessons. And as I stood talking to my piano teacher after my lesson, my eyes shifted towards the seating area. Mothers, fathers, and young children were waiting to have their lessons and waiting to pick up their children. Some were fidgeting and talking on their phones and eating snacks. And there was this one woman there, completely engrossed in her book. Hair...
You know what’s nice? When you think that you can’t go back to school, but then you can, and then you’re going back to school. It’s just nice, sometimes.

I need to slow down
And just take my time with the things in my life that need to be done.
Because it’s so easy to just get spun up in our thoughts and to-dos of our day to day situations and totally forget prayer. But then you just feel rocky and uncertain and anxious because you’ve let your grip loose of the one thing that constantly keeps you standing. So I just ask for prayer… for my prayer...

Jesus is more than enough
beauty-for-ashes:
When every part of my flesh begs me to indulge, the Holy Spirit reminds me Jesus is enough. In fact, He is more than enough. By His grace there is a way out of every temptation.
Whatever it is you are being tempted to do is not worth it. It is not going to satisfy you or bring you joy. Jesus wants you to obey; His heart is for you. Therefore, He gives you a way out every...

Amish Forgive, Pray And Mourn →
I was working on my research paper for IAPS and came across this article looking upon utopias. So I came upon the Amish, to describe a considerably succesful set-apart society. And as I was studying the history of thier society, I came across the article of the massacre that occured in Pennsylvania a couple of years ago. I was just so struck and touched to the reaction to this terrible incident....

My blog will for a while, probably be neglected for the following reasons:
I’m studying for my SATs
There’s lots of work to do
There’s too much time spent on here
There’s not enough time to do all the things I want to
With that being said, I will see to this place occasionally, because life is more of a priority than Tumblr sometimes, and I love you all.

Just found out one of my guinea pigs is a boy…called it Victoria for a month.
I was just talking about this with a friend the other day, and felt it worthy to write about.
I don’t know if this may sounds silly to some, but I smile at the thought of growing old. I long to see the moment where I can see the wrinkles beside the corners of my eyes. Where I can look at my body and all it’s characters and nooks, and freckles, and remember the stories behind each one....
