| Have you rested enough, my child?
I think so. What have you brought me here to do?
What do you think you should do?
Should I sing?
Not tonight. You do that enough already.
Should I pray?
Maybe a little, but I want to do most of the talking this time.
Should I dance.
Sure, go ahead, dance...
But wait, I'll look silly. No, no, I can't do that. Maybe I could-
YOU DANCE FOR THEM! Why can't you dance for me? You are more comfortable around them than me?
No, that's not what I meant... perhaps. It-, I-, um...
Hush... come dance with me.
I do not know how.
Then walk with me.
This way?
No. Not with them this time. Tonight it is just you and I.
Then where?
This way, to a place only you and I can be.
But so much good is happening right here.
Are you going to spend your whole life standing still? You say you want to hear me, so listen. Follow me.
Show me the way.
Here we are.
It's...beautiful. You made this just for me? When?
It's been here all along.
Why couldn't I see?
You were too busy looking to them.
Why have you brought me here?
To teach you to dance. Try.
I am so clumsy.
You will learn. Now take my hand... I will show you more of this place.
There is more?
Oh my child, don't you understand? we have barely scratched the surface.
Come.
Come see what I have prepared for you. Come see what you've been
missing out on. Come explore a place that will blow your mind. Come
celebrate. Come... Come dance with me! | | |
| In less than three weeks, I'll be home and I'll turn 21. I'm pretty pumped about that. It's been an interesting summer. It's flown by. My summer in a nutshell has involved living in Indiana and working, playing guitar for a youthgroup, going to a John Mayer/Ben Folds concert, cookouts, random movies, lots of ultimate frisbee, a waterpark, and more! I got a new laptop, ditched the gotee, and made some new friends. Living in my own place has been sweet, and the guys I live with are great. The job, not so much, but you can't have everything, right? Oh, and today an Indiana man told me Michigan people speak unintelligent English. | | |
| Here's a video memory from last semester that a friend just put on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrpELAcz4Fw. If you can't spot me in the video, here's a hint: I'm the guy with the chair stuck on his head. The clip's not even a minute long, but it was on there for like 10 minutes. | | |
| So this is incredibly random, since I haven't posted for like 6 months. School's gonna be out this week, which, though bittersweet, I'm very ready for. This semester's been an interesting one, that's for sure. So many ideas and emotions have come and gone, and some have stayed... silly college kids... Anywho, it's looking like I might be spending the summer in Upland, Indiana, living with a friend, working, and just partying (or something). I'll probably be in Jackson for at least a couple weeks though, so don't hesitate to pick up the phone and let the good times begin!!! Anywho, here's song... It seems like sometimes
Everything's my way
but then the sunshine
fades to gray
Everywhere that once was clear
Is now confusion
I lost my way and in this rain
I find disillusion I keep on wandering Tripping as I go One minute I think I see the light The next I know I’m just as lost, or maybe more As when I came Could everything I left behind Ever be the same Could it be that I’m supposed to leave this place Is it possible this was all one big mistake Why would you turn your back and let me go Maybe I’ll never know Maybe I’ll never know Until I see you face to face. | | |
| Oh yeah, I have a Xanga, what do you know... Last weekend I went to Cedar Bend with my core group. It was basically summer camp on steroids, and in the fall. The first day we went down in a Valley and stayed there all day. We had to chop our own wood, make our own meals, and try and sleep out there. The next day we canoed in hail and fourty-five mile an ahour winds, and then came back and killed chickens. I got to chop one of the heads off, so that was a new experience. It was pretty nasty watching the chicken guts get ripped out. It was a good time. I can't believe it's already November, though. This simester has flown by like the snow that decides to fall for about five minutes every couple of days (profound, right?). But yeah, that's what's going on with me. Say hey, leave comments. I miss all you non-SAU people. | | |
