my morning mix

i woke up this morning to an interesting myriad of tunes.
my morning mix:

say | john mayer
nehemiah | hope of the states
white shadows | coldplay
lost on yer merry way | grandaddy
spitting games | snow patrol
so alive | ryan adams
transatlanticism | death cab for cutie
surfing on a rocket | air

so typical, yet so odd...

change is inevitable

well,

the first four months of two-thousand and eight
have been interesting, to say the least.
just as the weather has changed drastically
in these short months,
so have the seasons in my life.

i've learned, however, that change is inevitable.
so i find myself welcoming it with open arms
and a smile upon my face.

with change comes growth.
with growth comes love.
the Lord is teaching me to trust Him again.
[it is now apparent to me that i had stopped.]

these struggles always turn into a life lesson.
and just as r.t. said yesterday,
God was really right all along.

lovely people

there are some people in your life,
who are those people.
you know, those people.
you can call at any time.
you can ask them for any favor.
they are always praying for you,
without having to ask.

when you get to talk, it's the best.
they know your heart
to the very core.
and they believe that you're a good person
no matter what you do.
they are always on your side,
even if you are completely wrong.

they remember your favorite christmas song.
and the stupid things you did together in college.
and they make you laugh deep.
[you know...that deep laughter that comes from the gut]
it's because they know exactly what to say
to bring that ridiculous sound about.

they never think you're stupid
and they always think you're the best.
even when you fail them.
it's because you become part of them
at some point in the journey.
hearts knit together.

i love you, kelly.

memory

when i was a freshman in high school,
i paid this girl five dollars to make a mixed cd for me.
(this was before i knew how to do it myself)
(it's sad, i know)
it was supposed to be part of a present for someone.
she never made my cd.
and when i asked her about it, she yelled at me.
in theatre class...in front of people.
[i can only hope they thought it was part of a scene]
i don't even remember this girl's name.
but wherever she is,
i want my five bucks back.
