"To be a Christian is to forgive the inexcusable... because God has forgiven the inexcusable in you." 

-C.S. Lewis

Sorry I've been so terrible about posting lately. Life has been crazy busy, and honestly, I haven't taken the time to stop and get pictures of anything. Changing that SOON. =) Also, this 'fall back' time thing has me totally and completely... um, out of sorts. I have no idea why, but we haven't exactly come to terms with each other yet! lol

Speaking of time... I need to get some sleep! 

I'll try and post soon... =)

Goodnight!

Wednesday Words

People are often unreasonable and self-centered... forgive them anyway.

If you are honest, people may cheat you... be honest anyway.

If you find happiness, people may be jealous... be happy anyway. 

The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow... do good anyway. 

Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough... give your best anyway. 

For you see, in the end, it's between you and God... it never was between you and them anyway. 

It's All About Love...

And rambling.

"It's not about finding someone who won't fight with you, or make you sad, or mad. It's about finding the person who will still be standing there wiping the tears away, holding you in their arms after a fight, and the one who will never leave... no matter how hard things can get"

And just for the record... I love the girl's shoes in this picture!!! Everything about them is just... perfect. 

Guess what just got added to my Christmas wish list... lol

Hope you all are having an amazing Sunday!! I am... church this morning was so good. I almost didn't go because I'm not feeling so great, but I'm glad I did. 

It was definitely what I needed. 

The text was John 13:34 and 35.

"A new commandment I give unto you. That ye love one another; as I have loved you, they ye also love one another. By this all men shall know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another"

Simple enough. Yet something that can be sooo hard. If we're really children of God, then we should be distinctly set apart by the love we have for others. It never hurts to be reminded of that. So often I just want to... well, not  be loving. And I can come up with one hundred and one reasons why I have every right not to treat someone with love. But none of that matters.

 I'm a Christian. I love them. No matter what. 

I know that's vague, but you get the idea. =) 

When someone wrongs you... love them. 

Because that's what we're commanded to do, and the Lord will bless us for it. 

So I am off to make a chocolate shake with strawberries... one of very few things I can actually eat right now! But have a great rest of the day, peoples... =)

Teeth, Soup, and Being Lazy...

My days... have consisted of broccoli and cheese soup from Panera Bread. (best stuff ever, btw)

 Lots of Gatorade...

 Catching up on reading...

 And wishing I had this window seat/bed thing to sit on and read because it's so bright and cozy looking... 

 3 different antibiotics...

Sleeping.

Blogging.

And music. 

Why?

I got all 4 of my wisdom teeth pulled yesterday. 

Which was definitely ouch. But they were impacted and needed done, so I'm really glad to have it over with.

And they put me to sleep for it... which was about the weirdest thing I've ever gone through... I couldn't even walk afterwards. Seriously, it was crazy. Anyways, I feel really lazy just doing nothing... but I'm actually sort of enjoying it. It's not every day you get to just lay in bed all day and literally do nothing. Not that the nausea, pain and headaches that come with it are fun... but still. 

 My bro snapped this picture of me as soon as I was done... and yes, I realize I look terrible here, but I really was/am feeling that pathetic.

So that's what's going on in my life at the moment... 

Have a great weekend, everybody!

Saving The World... Together.

Me.... and Captain America. Would that make me Mrs Captain America? Yes. (officially unofficially of course) Because he's just THAT awesome.

This movie came out today... and I just had to get a picture with the hero. I would write a review on it, but Polka Dot did an amazing job of that here, and there's pretty much nothin' I could say about it that she didn't. So go check it out. =) 

And one of my favorite quotes from the movie:

Captain A: "Why me?"

Dr. Erskine: "Because a weak man knows the value of strength. Knows the value of power. Whatever happens... stay who you are. Not just a soldier, but a good man."

Yes, he is a good man. Strong yet gentle, confidant yet vulnerable, independent yet not afraid to ask for help, and a gentleman. 

I really did love this movie. And may, just may... be in love with Captain America. lol

Have a great week!

Jesus Loves You

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on Him should not perish, but have everlasting life" -John 3:16

If that's not love... then I don't know what is.

Hope you all have an amazing Sunday... =)

"He died not for men, but for each man. If each man had been the only man made, He would have done no less" -C.S. Lewis 

It's the most wonderful time of the year...

Which, to me, isn't Christmas... but now. Fall. =) 

 There's just something about it... 

The colorful leaves... (okay, honestly, I live in FL, where leaves don't change colors... but I love the places where they do!!)

 Snuggling up in a hoodie that's way too big for you, with a hot cup of coffee/hot chocolate and your favorite movie or book...                                                 

But replace this ^^ with the one below. :P 

And going to pumpkin patches and corn mazes and fall festivals... which to some may be lame, but to me it's just kind of a given for the season. =) 

And one day... I'd like to have a cute little girl with blonde hair and blue eyes... and dress her. cute. like. this. 

And this bench kinda looks like the perfect place to just chill and enjoy life... aka people watch? Yeah... idk. But either way, as long as you're with the right person, it would be all good. Right? 

And this picture... just because it's adorable and I love it. <3

P.s... I'm thinking about giving my blog a makeover. It's just seemed sorta blech lately and could use something new and fresh. Any thoughts?
