'tis sad fact of life

sometimes you have to try not to care no matter how much you do. because sometimes you mean nothing to someone who means everything to you.

you say jump, i say spin. you say twizzle, i say rocker.

It's like nothing I can explain. If you ask me why, I can't give you a direct answer. It's just this feeling of freedom and abandon. Sport and art. Fashion and fire. The two worlds are one, and that's what I love about it. I love just shooting around the rink with the wind in my hair. The only one out there - all other worries out of mind. It's like a sweet escape. It's something I can do with friends, or do alone if I need to think. It's the best vacation.

There are flaws of course. But there are cons to everything. There's something about working hard to accomplish your dreams that's very admirable. It can be applied to all parts of life.

This has always been a love and I think it always will. I'd love to be one of those old ladies at skating competitions all decked out in Canada gear, cheering and dancing with abandon.

Skating. Ya, this is a forever thing :)

and...that's the end of that

sorry dear but it's over. you've had enough time. i have better things to do.

sisters

How can I have only known you for three months? It feels like we've been friends a lifetime. I'm amazed at how fast our friendship formed. We get along so well and have sooo much in common it's insane :) Bestie, you're like a sister to me. I can't wait for all the places we'll go together and things we'll see. These next four years are going to be amazing :) But they're only the beginning of a friendship for a lifetime :)

take it all

Lord, I want You to be the only reason that I live.

I want every part of my life to be used for You and by You.

Lord please take it all. My heart is Yours.

safe

My love is a light driving away all of your fear.

So don't be afraid.

Remember I made a promise to keep you safe.

some days, i feel like a duck. calm and smooth on the outside, but paddling like the dickens underneath.
