Free tunage by Andrew Osenga

I have a friend whose arms, legs, and stomach look like fishnets because of her struggle with self-injury, and I have several other people close to me who've struggled with it.

Thoughts on theology and such
My best friend is a staunch Calvinist. I'm not. Not at ALL. Therefore, this is one subject we do not discuss. :) I, the Armenianist, put on a shirt and believe I chose it. She puts it on and believes it chose her. Okay, not really. lol.
