thursday's words

My advice for today is as follows--

1. Skip class at least once a semester.
2. Find a running buddy. And run.
3. Drink water, and drink lots of it.
4. Comparison is a thief. Help yourself and those around you kill it. 
5. Fall in love with a British boy band.

And those are my words.

thursday's words

I've got some advice. 
Consider it free--

1. Always be sure that your dishwasher is empty when having friends over for dinner.
2. Find a good chocolate chip cookie recipe. And memorize it.
3. Floss your teeth before you brush them.
4. Write papers at least three days before they're due.
5. Confess and forgive. Your body will thank you.

xoxo

sufficient

You wouldn't believe how many times I've begun to type something in this little text box and pressed backspace. Words are insufficient; words fall short. It's as if there's a disconnect between my head and my heart, a disturbing nuisance making fuzzy the connections that I so often rely on as I'm not adept with the spoken word. I want to write! I want to write about the joys that invade my life and the fears that are sometimes quick to choke them. I want to share my struggles, the things which threaten to suffocate me, and I want to share my victories, the things which are meant to be celebrated. Oh, how I want to write with reckless abandon...

But not tonight. Words elude me, and I'm left with a single phrase that's been reverberating off the walls of my heart: I am His, and He is mine.

And right now, that is sufficient.
