Finding my way back. Fighting my way back.
Jon Mclaughlin-Human
Can you tell me how we got into this situation
I can’t seem to get you off my mind.
All these ups and downs they trip up our good intentions
No one said this was an easy ride
After all, we’re only human
Always fighting what we’re feeling, hurt instead of healing…
…Can we get back to the point of this conversation, when we saw things through each others eyes?

I’ve got Jesus on my side, and I’m running for my life.

Have a today that was better than any yester
Daze away and imagine all that you’ll be
Come to find your way.
I am not a mystery.
In fact all you have to do is ask for the key.
Dearest People of God,
It is time to step our game up. God is calling us to new levels yet we stay complacent and lax in our everyday Christian lives. Listen, When you don’t do the work that God has called you to do, someone else has to pick up the slack limiting their purpose, limiting God’s will.
An arm shouldn’t be doing the work of the leg and the foot.
God is saying get ready.
He is tired of...
I've got dreams to consider...
They keep me up at night. My dreams. His plan.
I too want to do His work. In His time. In His way.
It’s hard waiting.
I just want to create. In every aspect of the word.
I WANT TO CREATE.
Always. All ways.
I want to create something that WILL change the world.
Not for my sake.
Don’t give me credit.
Always Hopeful. All ways Hopeful.

I’m going to start reading a book today. For fun. One that doesn’t make me think to much, or question the meaning of life.
Shake it off.
Sleep away the pain.
Take a shower and forget about.
Listen to music and let it take you away.
I realized sometimes that you just have to do those things. Usually my excuse is that I don’t have time to waste and I just have to ignore it and move on. Well… I am a person first. So when the stresses of the world become too much to handle I HAVE to find a way to shake it...

“they say go west til you feel the sunset, and there you’ll become a...”
I’ve said a thousand goodbyes in my lifetime and my heart still breaks a little with every one. It’s like fire, every time you touch it- it burns. You don’t gain some natural immunity to it, and your skin doesn’t get so thick where you don’t feel it anymore. It’s the one thing you can never really get used to. You’re lucky to get out alive, I’ve...
O ye of little faith.
Let me set the scene for you: I was sitting at Bob Evans, drinking my cup of joe, and waiting on my Rise and Shine skillet to arrive. I began to read USA today as I often do starting with the cover page and gradually working my way throughout the paper. I read about Sotomayor, and some lame football coach, and Afghanistan and how the death rate is steady on the rise, both civilians and troops and...
A haiku on womanhood.
Please just Make it Stop

“Everybody is free to wear sunscreen” by Baz Luhrman
Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of ‘97,
Wear sunscreen. If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists, whereas the rest of my advice has no basis or reliable then my own meandering experience. I will dispense this...

“I live and love in God’s peculiar light.”
~Michelangelo”
I’m about to eat dinner, but mom kicked me out of the kitchen because I kept snacking on the food as it was being prepared.
I’m convinced that all I need in life to be happy is:
Jesus
Good Food
Good Family
&
Good Friends
Plates are on the table… IT’S DINNER TIME.
Nothing like sitting around the dinning room table with the parentals, discussing life over a good...
Another Haiku on love
Love is my reason
but please don’t let that fool you,
Cause Love loved me first.
A haiku on love
A haiku on love
Cause in my world, it’s vital
Love is my motive.
Pure Imagination Pills
I just took the last pill in the box to remedy Peter Pan Syndrome. These pills, capsules, tablets act as a sort of neutralizer, so that whenever the Peter Pan Syndrome starts to sneak up I have a better way of handling it.
I slip into Pure Imagination where I can still be free to dream, yeah. I’m not quite sure I welcome the suppresant, but you do what you gotta do right? When I became a...
Paraphrased from a Marc Broussard song
“For a girl who’s done nothing, I’ve been blessed with so much more than I deserve”
“Love grows in me like a tumor, parasite bent on devouring its host”...”
“People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centered; Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish ulterior motives; Be kind anyway. If you are successful, you will win some false friends and true enemies; Succeed anyway. If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; Be honest anyway. What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; Build...

I recently recieved a card from a friend thanking me for supporting their ministry financially. This friend is becoming a full time missionary and is in need of financial support- which is hard enough, without having to raise funds during the nations econmic crisis. Anyway, the friend said in their thank-you card that “they found it interesting that their friends who are college students...
I lost myself for a minute, glad to have found my way back. It’s a good feeling to know your self well enough to know when you’ve lost yourself. Hmmm does that make any sense???
…I’m glad I’m not still searching, and I’m glad I know my identity in Christ. And I’m glad that my identity in Christ is completely different from anyone elses. Makes it so I...
Headed towards the light but not quite on the straight and narrow path yet.
Be careful what you ask for.
Dear God,
Chisel Away.
