Mariel: “Challenge! For the rest of the day, every sentence you speak must contain some sort of alliteration!”
We faced each other in silence unable to think of anything to say. i don’t know what i would do without my twin. She helps me to laugh when i feel i can’t.

i was reading old letters i never sent.
From months back. Like eight and nine months back. It’s so bizarre reading about things i hoped that would happen that didn’t happen, bands breaking up (like Copeland, Lydia, Settle the Sky, etc.) things that did happen that i now have gotten used to
i am planning a secret mail-out sometime either this week or the next. Secret because i’m technically not supposed to be sending...

Nature is dying. Blue skies are graying. Thousands of species of animals are becoming extinct. Your brothers and sisters in other parts of the world are losing their homes and jobs because of your uncontrolled consumerism. This illogical escapism eschatology many have is a poor excuse to not take action to preserve the beautiful Creation, and therefore help out your fellow human kind and fellow...
“It’s about as useless as
A screen door on a submarine
Faith without works baby
It just ain’t happenin’
One is your left hand
One is your right
It’ll take two strong arms
To hold on tight
Some folks cut off their nose
Just to spite their face
I think you need some works to show
For your alleged faith
Well there’s a difference you know
B’tween...

Last night was one of those nights that i remembered i am stronger and more powerful than i think. :-)

My mind races as soon as my head hits the pillow. Last night it kept me up until 7, 4 hours after I intended to get to sleep. It starts with a small thought and that snowballed down a mountain until it was a massive mess. This is always how it goes.

Victim of complacency
Just getting by. Ever since i was very young, i had had “outstanding” grades. i would have straight A’s with little effort, and people will praise me for it. i would be praised by adults for presenting for doing very well, “above average” with very little effort on my behalf. My classmates would ask me how i made such good grades and i remember telling them “i...
Night/Day — Mae
Today is the first day of my last semester in high school. But i missed it because i’m so sick. i have been bed-resting, feeling very ill for the past few days, and all the coughing has made sleeping almost impossible (but i did succeed for a little bit). i can’t wait to feel better.

Sometimes, i do not like you.
Sometimes, i want to kick you. If i could. But i couldn’t. i wouldn’t. i can’t. i wouldn’t dare.
You frustrate me. A lot. But that’s only because i believe in you so much.
i want what’s best for you, and i can’t do that for you, because i am not perfect either, and i don’t know what’s good or bad. All i can...

i like to do stuff.
i realized that i like to do things with my hands. Or work that involves my whole body. i shudder at thought of writing equations and calculations, being in charge of numbers or money and all that jazz for the rest of my life. i’m kind of the human who wants to try everything. i’m looking into being an apprentice to the guy who fixed my camera, even if that means i have to lug around...
i don't know...
For the stutterer, the thoughtful (those who have heard me attempt to express my thoughts to them have probably heard me say many “um”s “ah”s and “uhhh”s, sometimes giving the excuse that despite my lost fluency in Spanish, that English is my second language), the best way i can express myself as i train myself towards unbroken spoken language is through...
What does it mean to be happy?
i have heard it said that happiness is when one forgets oneself. So then, what does it mean to forget oneself? i think it means not to forget that you exist, but more clearly, to acknowledge yourself as last or no more. To “forget” yourself, compared to everything else. To not worry about obtaining your wants and desires, but rather, to have faith that they will come. i feel so much...

Dedicated to Cole Kelly.
Someday, i would like to find an authentic telephone both and utilize it for no particular reason at all.
Dear rachel, there are tons of books to read, lots of records to listen to, and lots of things to experiment with. i know things at home and in high school aren’t great right now, but it’ll be over soon. Don’t let those who expect you to be perfect and expect so much from you bother you so much, because your confidence is in YHWH. This is just for a season. There is lots to...
