you live in regret
it hurts to know how much you’ll miss
it’s what you expect
that leaves you such a mess

Anyway, enough of that.

I skipped church today to have church. Strange I know, but that is what I did. Then I went to a really really really long meeting today, and did my best to help out my friends going to mexico this year.
After that I went to an awesome birthday party of one of my good friends and saw a bunch of people.

Anyway, enough of that.

I am not going to Mexico this year. Eleven years would be too much.
I am sad about not going, but I have faith that it’s all good. God is good.

===================================================

Anyway, life is rather life-y right now. Lots of work, some school, and a few friends.

I spent five hours today doing something that I thought would only take me fifteen minutes.

My hair is getting long, and so is my beard. It is a little over two months old.

I had Ice Cream too late tonight, and I am shakey.

But not photography lecture. Too boring tonight. Even though we are going to be reviewing the material that is on the mid-term, I am not going. We have been doing that for the last month. Over and over and over again.

And I am too tired. It has been a long weekend filled with staying up late and getting up early, and a whole lot of nothing in between. I almost died on saturday on a micro-epic adventure (fit that in to your theology…). If I had died, my last thoughts would have been, “Boy, I feel like an Indian… Moving all quiet through the woods. CRAP!” But I didn’t so my thoughts just kept going.

Sunday I got up way to early for going to bed so late.

One thing this weekend wasn’t full of was internet. I was unplugged from the web the whole weekend. How strange is that?

God confuses me. Why isn’t it that the more you read the bible, the more you pray, the more you do works, the holier you are? Why isn’t there a simple 48 step plan for getting in to heaven and living your life down on earth perfectly?

I feel like I am in over my head –  on purpose.

Cause this can’t go on much longer.

Take away my firm belief and graft my soul upon Your grief.

It is worse now. The swings are too much, but do they exist at all? Your love warms me like a summer day, but it makes the cold of winter colder. I feel like a rock in the early spring, water seeping into my cracks and becoming ice. Pieces of me falling off to be ground up into dirt

Weddings, boats, and alibis, all drift away, and a mother cries…

I feel like I am spinning faster and faster. The longing vs the contentment. I feel like I will go critical and just stop trying and watch and see where my body parts lie.

If the world was how it should be, maybe I could get some sleep

You are everywhere I look, I am almost haunted. You confound me and blow my mind only to have me pick up the pieces in wonder. You have made something so beautiful out of something so painful. My head still hurts – my car, my job, my friends. What is going to happen with that? Should I leave the pieces on the ground? Your plan for all this? Was that deer in my path for a reason, or something unplanned? Unplanned? Can you do that? Can I do that? Where and when is this all going to make sense, when and where am I going to stop caring and let you be who you are?

Why are we so afraid?
We make it worse when we don’t bleed

How does this work? Where am I going? How can I have two dreams? Two goals? Can I be in two places at once? Can my inheritance be both 1200 and the cries of thirsty children? Am I going to explode? Will there be a vacuum left? What are you doing with my head and my heart?

Oh my God.

Am I the only one who see this? That they are all the same? The explosion and the implosion are still you. You give me my breath. You take it away. I know you hold my life in your hand and have piece, but only with my life? Why am I not content in other places, why am I so badly bent?

Oh my God, look around this place
Your fingers reach around the bone
You set the break and set the tone

If I stop picking up the pieces, will you?
