"My heart is overflowing with a good theme; I recite my composition concerning the King; my tongue is the pen of a ready writer."
Sitting in the terminal. Waiting for my boarding call. Sipping a ridiculously over-priced latte. Watching all the people hurrying, hurrying, hurrying. I love travel. There’s so much excitement in the air… or… is that just stress? Ah well, it seems exciting to me. Isn’t it crazy to think that within just a few hours almost [...]
It’s so strange the way that people come and go in our lives. Some people never really come, we’re born into a family and have a group of people around us who we can’t seem to get rid of. Some come almost out of nowhere and never leave, faithful friends who stay by us for [...]
So… it’s August twenty-second. The summer is over and next semester is staring me in the face. And, despite my firm resolution when school ended for the summer, I’ve not written much at all.

The warm sun is shining down on my back, warm enough to be comfortable, but not at all hot. The warm breeze gently keeps my hair out of my face. The afternoon is silent, with most of the students away at different weekend events. All I hear is the occasional bird song and the familiar [...]
Okay, I’m going to stop apologizing for sporadic posting. That just seems to be life right now. Anyhow, I just wanted to write a little bit about Psalm 18, which I was studying recently and really struck me… and since I’m actually pretty much caught up on homework, I thought I’d try to get a [...]
Wow, I’ve not posted in weeks again. College kinda makes life busy. But things are settling down, I’m getting quite into the swing of things, well, that or I’m too tired to know the difference. This last week, one of my best friends drove down to visit me for the day. We had a really [...]
I sit in my normal spot in the corner of the coffee shop. My head rests against the window frame, and my eyes wander wistfully over the trees outside, bathed in the fresh light of another sunrise. Another day begins in this strange new world. Oh, yes, I’m settling in all right. I know where [...]
