I don't know why...but I go through these periods of my life where I feel inspired and truly believe in myself. Then there are other times when I just don't know what to do with myself...my life.

Well today began the spring semester. Great. Beautiful. Classes again. I can't complain for the most part. I didn't mind being in school.

Well today...just now I finished an amazing book. It made me cry so hard. It was such a touching real life story about an old, dying college professor reestablishing a relationship with his student. In college...this student was very close to his professor. After he graduated he let the real world beat him and turn him into the classic machine that ( Read more... )

Today...we went to church. I don't even know the name of the church, but I loved it. I love my little family. I felt as if I was going to church with all of my sisters, and my...little brother...Evan. But...anyway...I enjoyed the service. We sat there singing...listening...laughing...absorbing...spacing...whatever came to us. But, you knoe? I loved ( Read more... )

Tonight was very special. I was very skeptical about seeing Big Fish. Man...was I wrong. It was...to me...an amazing story about love, laughter, family, life and the test of time. I thought that it was very special. After a hearty meal at Ruby Tuesdays, the girls, Thomas, and I went to the theatre. As the movie started, I was like, "Yeah...okay... ( Read more... )
