    I know what you mean. I need to reconnect with people (in real life). It's been hard for me since moving to a city that I despise, where my only contact with the world is at school.
    I am thankful for the for the friends I've made and their inspiring blogs.

    I just strive to remember that there will never be anything new under the sun - so why invest in such things? Of course, it's a hard struggle to live in this world but let go of it at the same time - but He is here to carry us through!

    Your blog is very inspiring, and what a cute photo!

    I started my blog when I lived far from home, and had trouble making friends, so I was so thankful for being able to connect with others. But at the same time it is important not to forget about the important value of real-life friendships.

    ps: You were the cutest child! I love your little outfit!!

    You have such a gift for writing. Selflessness is always something to strive for. Know you're not the only one fighting :)

I praise God every day for her . Jackie.. these are my favourite things about you.. 1. When you put vaseline on your lips before bed and you do the exact same circular motion every singggleee time 2. When you talk to waitresses at restaurants like they are the president (and you a peasant) 3. How you share the exact same softness in your heart for boys in vans 4. How you are so punctual and I'm so not 5. Your love for a good steak 6. Your infatuation with Disney (and cheezy pop bands i.e. McFly.. i do admit they are quite good) 7. Your inability to lie- although I know you have before.. you're really bad at it. 8. The fact that if i begged you.. you'd move to Ireland with me for graduate school 9. The devotion you have to God and His plan for you (it's truly pulled me through some tough times) 10. The fact when you cook you follow every SINGLE direction.. and you have a huge problem when things go out of order 11. T...

friday in boulder.

"i want to paint this city red to hide a blue heart" I recently started to get Friday's off from work (which I'm totally psyched about). i am going to consciously dedicate every friday to having fun since i work through the weekends. me, fallon, c and derek went to a small town outside of the city called "boulder." they are known for their incredible antique stores. we had a lovely lunch, bought adorable pieces and managed to only get yelled at by one shop owner (meanie almost made me cry). my most favorite part was meeting this man: he teaches glass blowing classes and also works in a little antique shop and make's adorable little glass figurines. he told me about his youth and how he got drunk with the beetles, how him and his wife met and how he loves her more every day. -i am honestly thinking about taking some glass blowing lessons from him- you never know what hobby will create your impetus for fulfillment...

Consciousness

I adore my French classes so far . Every speaks really well and I see my own French turning a whole new corner. But this semester, my favorite thing about school though is my philosophy class on consciousness. I love that the professor began class with a bit of a boiler plate review of what would be covered. I felt instantly amused by his enthusiasm and love for what he does. He mentioned a symptom called "Zombie-ism." I had never heard from it but from his explanation I began to understand that it's a little something like this.. 1. A zombie is a robot, a system and indistinguishable from you and I (humans) 2. Zombie-ism suggests that being conscious (as you and I are) is not essential in functioning (as you and I are conscious, functioning entities) 3. If this is true, then we discover that consciousness is completely separate from the tangibles the compose this physical world 4. This seperation is what is so mystifying. We have physi...
