Priorities


Lord,
Help me
To organize my life according to what You desire
Instead of what I feel like in the moment.
I know that only in this way can I ever feel like I'm accomplishing anything.
So please help me.

Work: Tube Park

Started working at my winter job today (second year at it in a row). I work the tube park part of my local ski resort. It's supposed to be the best snow tubing in Ontario. I have a lot of fun working there. Everyone (the customers) was happy: two days before Christmas!

I Am The Rain


I am the rain.
You are the river.
I unburden my weary heart.
You wash my tears far away
So they mingle with bygone years and are forgotten.

One Request

I just want to curl up in a ball and let the world wash over me. And when it's gone, my troubles with it, I'll stand up, and maybe then I'll be ok.

Anguish and Tears


Tears
Deep anguish
Soul wrenching
Emotional exhaustion
Despair
Tears

It's 2:00 In The Morning


It's 2:00 in the morning
I'm trying to decide if that cup of caffeinated coffee was worth it...
It was good coffee
But I do love sleep...
My friend even warned me,
Knowing how caffeine affects me,
That it was caffeinated coffee.
Come to think of it, 
This is probably the combination of the cup of coffee at 6 p.m.
And the cup of coffee at 9:15 p.m.

Perfect and Encouraging

You are so encouraging. I don't know how you stand me, when I find myself so annoying sometimes. I don't know how you're so patient with me when I come complaining to you so often. I am so needy, and you just take it all in stride. I'm beginning to see, more and more, that while you're not perfect, you're perfect for me.
