Young love says there is nothing in the world that I wouldn’t do for.you. Old love says there is nothing in the world that I haven’t been through with you.
E. Keas- I've wasted my weekend.
A wasted weekend is wasted time. Time that you could have devoted to something else. I turn 23 on Saturday and I want to make a vow to myself to no longer waste weekends. Now I have to make it up. It sucks having to do something that you don’t want to do. It could potentially make you better person…but yet you still don’t want to do it.
I’m visiting my parents this weekend. Sometimes, when I come here, it feels weird. Like, I’m trying to figure out where I fit in. Where I belong. My answer. I no longer belong here in this house, I have to create my own. really, nothing here is mine.
But you know what, from this wasted weekend i spent here at my parents house. There are two things things I’ve gained
1. Time spent with my parents
2. More motivation to get what I want out of life.
So…in a way…I didn’t waste this weekend entirely. I got something to fil me up inside.
So many times in my life, I feel that I’m begging God to reveal His Will, but it seems like all I’m doing is toiling away at some mundane, repetitive task just waiting for my life to begin. What I’ve come to realize is that God doesn’t waste anything. He’s always teaching us; always shaping us. He’s preparing us to respond instinctively to the battles of life with a level of faith and skill we didn’t know we possessed. You’re on your way to becoming a “Spiritual Black Belt” and your Heavenly Father is with you every step of the way!
Maybe you’re in a place right now where you feel that your prayers aren’t being answered and that God has forgotten about you, but nothing could be farther from the Truth. The Truth is, God loves you, He’s right there with you and He is using every difficult circumstance in your life for your good and His glory. If you’re going through something difficult or frustrating, I believe it’s because God is preparing you for something great! Keep trusting Him no matter what.
“Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and don’t rely on your own understanding. In all your ways, submit to Him and He will guide your steps.” Proverbs 3:5-6
- love me.
just love me, not the way you think you should love me, but the way you are supposed to love me. Because even though i fall short of this sometimes, i am still trying to love you this way, the right away according to the all-mighty.
Dreams are illustrations from the book your soul is writing about you.
Marsha Norman (via inourwordsblog)When God begins to deal with us about wrong behavior, it’s easy to say, “I can’t help it,” but it takes real courage and faith to say, “I’m ready to take responsibility and get my life straightened out.”
Much of our thinking is habitual. If we regularly think about God and good things, godly thoughts become natural. Thousands of thoughts flow through our minds every day. We may feel we have no control, but we do. Although we don’t have to use any effort to think wrong thoughts, we have to use much effort to think good thoughts. As we begin to make changes, we will have to fight a battle.Our mind is the battlefield, and Satan’s primary way of initiating his evil plan for us is through our thoughts. If we feel we have no power over our thoughts, Satan will entrap and defeat us. Instead, we can determine to think in godly ways.
God has given us the power to decide—to choose right thinking over wrong. But once we make that choice, we must continue to choose right thoughts. It’s not a once-and-for-all decision, but it does get easier. The more we fill our lives with reading the Bible, prayer, praise, and fellowship with other believers, the easier it is for us to continue choosing right thoughts.

That’d be me! :) Here’s the original.
- 5 Signs you're falling in love. [H.Sea edition]
This is pretty basic but I gotta let it out. Why? Because I’m falling in love.
1.You start listening to an over excessive amount of love songs. Sometimes you’ll have a specific era, genre, or artists to listen to. The old Jodeci songs remind me of my ex so I’ve been looking for something new. However, I’ve been on a Beyonce-DC3 love streak. The songs perfectly relate to how I’m feeling. For the first time, when I listen to ‘Halo’ the lyrics in the song match to my feelings…perfectly.
2. You find your self taking random pauses throughout the day just to think of him/her. I’ll be at my desk writing a news release then all of a sudden I’d just stop put my head down close my eyes and whisper “oh my God, I love him.” Other times I’ll stare out into space.
3. You can’t sleep at night. All this week I’ve been restless and I’m tired as shit. My bed is so comfortable and I can’t sleep in it. I wake up in the middle of the night thinking about him. Wishing that I was there with him or he was here with me.
4. You look for different mediums to vent your feelings. I’ve talked my friend’s ears off. I’ve written on my Evernote. I’ve even recorded a voice note on my phone.
5. You can’t fight your intuition anymore. Then you have a brief anxiety attack about it. Last night, I repeatedly said to my self “this is not happening. Why is this happening now? This is not suppose to happen.” My intuition usually tells me all the reasons why I shouldn’t. This time, it’s telling my why I should. I’m scared. I’m in love with everything about him. His flaws, his perfections, everything. I know I love him and I know he loves me but I really did not expect to fall in love with him. I’ve been trying to keep my self distracted with other things and other men but I can’t fight it any longer.
Soooooo when am I gonna tell him that I’m in love? I’m not sure. I’ll just try to hold it back until it consumes me, until I can’t fight it anymore. I’m caught up in the rapture of love *cues Anita Baker* and I’ll fall victim eventually…
I feel good, knowing that I am already taking advantage of most of these things on the list. I just don’t have any crazy hairstyles yet…
“When I say my vows, I want to spontaneously burst into tears, knowing just how much those words mean. You can’t give them to whoever happens to show up.”
such a funny read! I’m guilty of a few things…
