• Hope

  First off, I only realized after I had said that I was going to put pictures up, that I wasn't using a digital camera (Oops?), sorry everyone. I'll have them scanned ASAP.

  They say that a picture is worth a thousand words. Looking back at every single picture of me from this past week shows that I never can just have a serious face, or a "normal" smiling face. I have to either be goofy, idiotic, or just plain weird. But that describes me, you know? The kid that gives you a complete sensory overload when you meet him, but that you grow to know and love. But when I make stupid faces, or goof around, I'm trying to show how much I'm hurt deep down inside. How much I need each and every one of you in my life for as long as possible. It shows me how desperately I need your guidance and support. I've come to accept that whenever I make a "silly" face in a photo, I can't be more serious. I'm crying out to you, for you, so that I will be saved. I need all that you're willing to give to keep me going. I need every last drop of strength that you'll give me. I need you plain and simple. I'm just trying to show you who and what I am.

  This past week at Triennium was about Hope being in our midst. Not about it just being amoung us, but how it is us. We elaborated on the need for the strength and support of everyone else around us to survive in this world. How Hope is NOT Joy, but we can find Joy in the presence of Hope. How the  "color" of Hope would be gray, not a "happy" color like a yellow or a pink; but also not a dark, dreary color.

  I learned about life, love, and happiness. And now I'm a new person, body and soul.
