my little epiphany...
jon leaves for college in a couple days...i really hope he has a great
time, but also makes a difference in this world, at the same time...and
i know he will, because he's jon...i love ya bud!
purple door was so much fun...the bands were amazing. ahhh i love them all. it seriously didnt feel like by birthday though...but oh well, im 17 now, kinda exciting i guess...
as this summer is winding down i look at it as a whole. its basically nothing compared to last summer...but in a way its really helped me discover another piece of who i am, and why im here. the last couple weeks i've mellowed out a bit...it's weird. but through thoughts and prayers i've realized that attention doesn't matter, acceptance doesn't matter, rejection doesn't matter, embarassment doesn't matter etc.etc. but the one thing that truley matters in my life, is the one thing that will never leave me, or forsake me. MY GOD. i think before, i half-heartedly said all those things, but now, i can honestly, with all my heart say them...i wanna live for jesus, and i will...just you watch. believe you me, once you've made the step, i mean TRULEY made the step-- by TRULEY, full-out commiting your life, and giving EVERYTHING up for Him, you won't want to go back...and noone will/can stop me now.
i love you all, and you probably know this already, but if you EVER need someone to talk to about anything, i would love to talk to you...and i promise i wont judge you, or look down on you, or stab you in the back...you're my best friends, whom i love dearly.
-god bless
