mmmmmm I can smell it. and I keep sneezing because of it. its freakin spring. and i love it. it's warm and its the kind of weather where you roll your windows down and listen to your music loud and you feel.... I don't know the word. everything just seems to be going so well. We got our superior at festival and church has been going well and I've been having really good discussions. I love talking to people. especially Ishmael. we have the best conversations. and in sunday school we talked this morning about things I've been thinking about forever. like the church being a place where people go to show off new clothes and to play the right music and to get the right people to come but it really shouldn't be. which goes back to this whole realness deal i've been on. like. I think if there church were just real, people would want to come. people would come because they are drawn to genuinness. thats why I just fell in love when I met kristi my freshman year. she's so unique and wonderful and completely real. and thats why she has so many friends. thats why everyone loves her because she doesn't feel the need to impress you. and thats why people don't like church. because it has become about impressing people. and people admire realness. thats why I love Ishmael. because hes crazy and funny and sarcastic and offensive to some people. but he isn't fake. and when people come out of their shell and just show who they really are... its nice. and its rare. and thats why people are drawn to someone like Jesus because they get to see that rarity all the time. Do I make any sense at all? I think I'm just rambling. I guess thats what LJ is good for huh? meh. comment if you have an opinion, which not much of anyone seems to. I do love you kids tho. really.
