Hi there. So yeah, pretty much this is me... I don't really accept friend requests unless I know you in real life. But yeah. Therefore I think most of you know all about me and I don't need to go on and on about myself.
The one thing I do have to say is that God blows me away. If it weren't for God, I wouldn't be here now. There are so many times in the past where honestly, I could have committed suicide. But God was there and He saved me. And each day He continues to save me and make me into a new person. There is no one else for me but Him.
If you want to be my friend, fine... but if you're trying to hit on me, go talk to my boyfriend. (that's right! my boyfriend!) He'll set you straight. *grin* Jesse you are freaking awesome!
As you can see I like pretty much everything musicwise. Yeah. But if you are really cool, you will check out Times Like These!!!! *grins* (that would be Jesse's band of course) And definitely check out Mae and JamisonParker as well.
So... um yeah, I'm leaving now. Catch ya laters!
"Hey unfaithful I will teach you
To be stronger (to be stronger)
Hey ungraceful I will teach you
To forgive one another...
Hey unloving, I will love you..."
Underoath--Some Seek Forgiveness, Others Escape
Sometimes when we walk through discord, it's not because God is not there, it's because He's teaching us to see Him there, and He's making us stronger. That's part of the reason I like the above song so much. =)

So I have decided that some things are harder than they look. It looks beautifully straightforward, simplistically, aesthetically pleasing, like a road heading straight to the horizon.
But instead things are really like a painting where the road goes around a curve and you can't see through to the other end of the curve. What lies there? Does darkness lie there, does something lurk in the shadows? Do I want to go forward?
In this something else comes up. The fact that life = risk. Or rather, life = taking risks. Shall I take the risk and go around the corner? Or shall I stand here in relative safety?
This doesn't just apply to the one glaringly obvious current situation...this really applies to my entire life right now.
I know I'll take that risk. Despite the fact that it will not be an easy thing.
I'll take it because I know that if I stumble, if I fall, if I go 'a long way off', God, my Father, will come running and meet me 'a long way off.' Like the Prodigal Son. When I'm still a long way off, He'll meet me. And because of that I know I am safe, that I can risk the risk.
Some things ARE harder than they look...
but where does beauty come if it doesn't come through hardship?
That would be Skillet.
God is speaking to me through the new Skillet album lately.
"My love is just waiting to turn your tears to roses. I'll be the One who's gonna find you, I'll be the One who's gonna guide you... No, you'll never be alone, when darkness comes I'll light the night with stars, hear My whispers in the dark..."
He is here, I can hope in Him...hold onto Him...
Zechariah 9:12.
"I lie here paralytic inside this soul, screaming for you until my throat is numb. I wanna break out, I need a way out. The worst is the waiting, in this world I'm suffocating... rebirth me now, I wanna live for love, wanna live for You and breathe, (breathe for the first time now, I come alive somehow) rebirth me now, I wanna live for You and give You everything..."
Really, that whole song could be me right now.
Some things are harder than they appear on the outside. Because the inside is hard.
Zechariah 9:12. John 11:4, 40. Psalm 16:9...
I don't write much on here...
My xanga is my journal place... AND NO YOU CAN'T HAVE THE LINK!! I don't frickin know you! Oh wait... maybe I do. =P Depends on who's reading this.
But yesh... I can't really say much 'cause well, this is the internet... gotta be safe. And I would post a poem, in fact I had one written, but... yeah. It wouldn't be right. Not cause it's nasty, but umm... yeah.
My song today was a song I just wrote... it was inspired by another song...
"I close my eyes and I see Your face
I look up to the sky and I hear Your name
You're the whisper in the wind
You were there when life began
You're the beat of my heart
We'll never be apart
And You embrace me
You embrace me
And with a gentle stillness
You hold me in Your arms
You embrace me
You embrace me
And with You by my side
I'll never come to harm
You embrace me
You embrace me
And when I'm overwhelmed, You give me Your love
And when I am empty, You are enough
You're the wave in the sea
You're a beautiful peace
You are my every dream
And my life, You redeemed
And You embrace me
You embrace me
And with a gentle stillness
You hold me in Your arms
You embrace me
You embrace me
And with You by my side
I'll never come to harm
You embrace me
You embrace me..."

I shall hie myself to Xanga I guess. Thank God my Ipod has finished charging... I've missed my Switchfoot song, and my As I Lay Dying, and my new Demon Hunter... and my old Mae stuff too...
Check out the song The Adventure by Angels and Airwaves... I'm obsessed with that lately.
God bless.
Purevolume... my new place to hang out. Hehe.
While I'm hanging around here, I'm having so much fun listening to Terminal. Lame, I know. I'm pretty lame actually. I love my emo and my hardcore and nothing will make me give it up! Mae and As I Lay Dying, here we come! =) Mae is the life man. Actually, music is.
You know, since I spend my days listening to music, I can say it's a worthwhile pastime...
