i hope my words are strange and wondrous,

like kisses that quiet all things superfluous,

so that we can all stop and

listen

i finished my midterm this morning,

handed in my essay this afternoon.

went to an excellent tutorial/lecture in between.

beauty.

silence.

no matter what.

i love you this much.

back from CCF.

always overwhelming thoughts.

it gets more and more endearing...

=)

relearning

rediscovering

realizing

that doubt can be beneficial.

and im learning to take the self out of selfish.

just another one of those days

walking down the sidewalk

in a city somewhere.

just another one of those moments

building castles in the air

just another girl out there.

wondering

waiting

until i realize

its only because of You

that joy is unconditional

love irreparable

wisdom irreplaceable

and peace, shalom, peace comes with the wind.

into my heart, a silent breeze.

For what the law was powerless to do

God did.

and forever sing praises to his name

no other name.

peace is in the clink of chopsticks

the laughter of a few

the smells of a crowd

the big heavy coats

and steaming warm tea.

rest is in the faces of understanding

the habit of extending

the soldiers of living

the joy of enriching

and hearts full of love.

home is in the steam of an iron

the sound of crisps

the deep-throated laughter

a dog's bag of treats.

the secrets of an hour

the plans of a year

the pages of a childhood

untainted and pure.

love is a lopsided grin

pixels on a screen

a secondhand shirt

a 6 string machine.

life in words

God in people

peace, shalom, peace.
