Words

Aren't words just wonderful?
They flow and they lilt, they can be created and crafted, tales can be woven and spun with them.
They can sing and they can harmonize, letters and speeches are written with them.
Some words just sound wonderful on your tongue, some you feel you have to belt out in a yell, others you want  to whisper in secret, some you want to shout to the world, others you want to say with a smile on your face.

Eloquence, cadence, praise, mediocre, sir, apothecary, renowned, subtlety, sensibility, joyful, beautiful, thrumming, lilting, harmonizing, beautifying, lovely, glorious, omniscient, sparkling, harp, raining, thundering, love. 
So many wonderful words! Words that mean so many things and used in so many ways.
And eloquent sir gave his praise in a glorious cadence, harmonizing with the the beautiful thrumming of a harp.
See! It can be so fun just stringing together in a sentence all your favorite words :-)

OK, I'm finished, just had to express all of that before I began my post :-)
Things have been a little crazy for me personally lately. I have been doing a plethora of writing lately,  (plethora! nice one eh eh! ;-) I have been writing three fanfiction [yes I know, I don't need to hear it ;] A bunch of poems and I have re-taken up my novel, having written the ending and annoying my best friend with it, I am working on the rest :-)
School has been giving me minimal issues, which I am eternally grateful for, I'm flying through everything while still retaining most of the information! It's a miracle! 
I am being annoyed at the crotchety weather lately, it's January, we're supposed to swamped by now, but nooooo, there has only been three days of rain for the whole month!!
Bad weather! Get your act together! ;-P

Have I mentioned, I love driving!! I don't love our car, but I love driving :-)
As I have taken up a saying after my dad, "I am the only good driver on the planet" hehe.
One of these days I'm going to take the advice of a certain someone, and drive up to the city and have a girls day with my friends, only I will be substituting ice-cream for a hot mocha :-)
You may ask, 'where does she live, saying 'up to the city'" Weeellll, I technically live in a city, but it's so tiny and I never see any one person only once....sooooo, I call the city above us 'the city', because their definitely big enough to be called a city. *grin*

I am trying to decide of I wish to spring into the horrors of job searching......... OK, I will.
So, I have been signing in at our local grocery store for about three weeks straight now, everyday, neither wind or rain, nor sleet or hail will keep me from it!
I have been the third most consistent 'signer-iner' [I made up another word! *adds to the list*]
So I am holding out hope for a job there, which I will be [quietly] ecstatic to get [if I do, of course]
And I also have news, I may not be able to call our 'city' [pssh] 'not a city' for very much longer, for we are getting a Target, a Fresh Food Market, a STARBUCKS! [now my life is complete, a Starbucks in town] a Petco, and Marshal's will be finished in a few months. YAY!! *happy grin*


Oh oh oh!! Aaaaaannnd, there is only FOUR more months of school left!!!!!!
As you can see by my excessive use of exclamation points, I am VERY happy about it. 
Sooooo, if I am allowed, and Lord willing, I graduate after this school year, I WILL BE DONE WITH HIGH SCHOOL!!!!! For those of you who read this and are either in college, or graduated high school without going to college, you can understand my exuberance.

Well, I believe that is all, life has been rather slow these past few months. I wish you all a goodnight [or day]

ma-salama


*I got an image with writing and a mocha :-D

I Wanna Be

I wanna be the face that takes your breath away
I wanna be the number you call when you wanna cry
I wanna be the princess in a fairy tale, 
The girl who get's swept of her feet
I wanna ride behind you on a white horse
I wanna be rescued by you


I wanna be the reason your smiling
I wanna be the name on your lips
I wanna be a dream come true
I wanna get lost in love's maze
I wanna be held by you


I wanna be a love story
The love drunk girl who can't see straight
I wanna get lost in your eyes, captured by your smile
I just wanna find you, I wanna be with you
I Wanna Be........loved

Star Gazing

Lying here gazing at the stars,
wishing once again 
I could be among them,
basking in the light
of the lonely and tranquil moon
Lord, here I am at your feet

my path is yours to lead,

show me thy will oh Lord,

that my life may be a a story

written for your glory

Wishing upon the Stars



A girl as beautiful and lonely as the moon

gazing to the heavens with longing on her face,

her tears shimmer against her pale skin

her eyes glow and sparkle like the stars,

she raises her face to the heavens and wishes once again,

to be with her kin, in the company of the silence of space

Dream


I wondered through this dream


quiet, peaceful and serene


with not a care nor a trouble,


but then I awoke to find 


that the world had passed me by

Monday, January 16, 2012

Whither shall I go from thy spirit?
  or wither shall I flee from thy presence?
If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there:
  If I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.
If I take the wings of the morning,
and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;
Even there shall thy hand lead me,
  and thy right hand shall hold me
                                                       -Psalm 139: 7-10


Oh Lord, thou has searched me, and known me.
  thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou
  understandest my thoughts afar off.
Thous compessest my path and my lying down, and art
  acquainted with all my ways.
For there is not a word in my tongue, but lo, Oh Lord,
  thou knowest it altogether.
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot
  attain unto it.
Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night 
  shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both
  alike unto thee.
                                                      -Psalm 139: 1-4, 6, 12


Oh the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and
knowledge of God! how unsearchable are His judgement,
and His ways past finding out.
                                                      -Romans 11: 33

He is the Rock, His work is perfect: for all His ways are judgement, 
a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is He.
                                                      -Deut. 32: 4

Busy Bee

Busy, busy, busy

my repetitive lines for this week,

running to and fro

searching for employment

is such a job itself!

Art Forms



                                                                       or................















To me, art is defined by the person who observes it. 
The orchids to some, are simply beauty, but to me, to me they are art. The earth is a masterpiece and we are it's details. The trees and flowered bushes, the oceans and seas, the fields and the valleys, the mountains and the hills. All of these are art, sculpted by the Creator's hand, to me, anything created is a form of art. Does that make me art? It makes me smile thinking so.
A definition of art states that art can be something that is more than ordinary, we were made uniquely weren't we? So that makes us art, and I love to believe it.

Once Again

And once again, I am awed by the majesty of my Savior. I recently posted a rather drawn out post of how my life had been going, but now, now I wish to convey that I am happy again.
I have done exactly as a poem of mine recently said,

I went to You in prayer
I laid my sorrows at you're feet
You eased my hurt and heartache


Fresh strength You bestowed me
I felt you're peace and love
I arose from my knees


And I held my head high
for in You I know
I can fight through another day
with You by my side, I will stand


I am constantly reminded everyday, that I can be strong in Christ. I feel like I was trapping myself in a cage, but when will I realize, "in You I am free to fly?"
As it always will, life has thrown me for a loop, it's made me cry, it's made me laugh, it's made me sad and it's made me happy.
But in and through all of it, I knew I had a constant Fortress, an unbreakable Rock.
Things have been happening, I'm looking to the future and something I wish to do, being in constant prayer on the matter. I'm feeling like I'm moving towards the place God wants me, letting Him lead and show me the way.
Life was difficult for awhile, but things have quieted down, things are going well, and I'm happy :-)
There is a very good chance I could be getting a job in town, one that I would enjoy and be happy to work at, and school will be over in four months, that's always a plus ;-)

So now I bid ma-salam, may the rest of you're day be blessed.

Up & Away


While your out there flying through life

I'm here with my feet on the ground


playing with frail paper birds,


waiting for the time of year


when you'll come back to me
