When looking at someone, use the sandbox test. If you were dropped into a sandbox with that person, could the two of you amuse yourselves for 24 hours without a…
Have you ever wanted something so badly that you've planned your entire life around it from age 11? Have you ever wanted something so badly that you're willing to do anything to do it? Have you ever wanted something so b…
I've discovered something wonderful. Cards, letters, hand written notes.
Dear Friend,
Dear friends, dear loved ones, dear y'alls. My friends are so important to me. My friends are my flowers. My daisies, like Meghan,…
Live for Christ. Live in joy.
I always smell like horses now. Horse is in my pores, through my hair, under my nails. Horse in my blood. I go out in the morning on my way for my run or bike and I talk to them. We talk about all sorts of things. We jus…

To all of you going away:
Don't ever forget that I'm praying for you. Don't ever forget you can make a difference with a word. Don't ever forget to laugh. Don't ever forget to play. Don't ever forget to jump in puddles …
I have my little list of things to write about if I'm ever too brain dead to come up with something clever and interesting. But today, I'm going to ignore my list. I want to talk to one very special person.

I love to write to people. I love cards far more than I love emails. There's something intrinsically neat about getting snail mail. If I have your address, chances are you've already gotten a card from me. If you haven't…
I am so stupid.
For the last few months, Kyle has been training for cross country. He's run a few track meets and one or two 5Ks. 5K runs are usually put on when the little towns have their streetfair/celebration/weare…

I worship God through prayer. I sit in my room for hours at night and just think to God. I don't talk and spell out everything. I just think to him.
I pray for Seth and his family. I pray for Mike and Renee and Mr. a…
*Walk in the garden*
There's seven horses in my yard. Seven. Malibu - Palamino Quarterhorse Mare. Newport - Dark Grey Dappled Quarterhorse/Thoroughbred Gelding. Harmony - Brown Quarterhorse/Appaloosa. Windlissie - White…
What are the five logical fallacies that you run into the most?
They were a people of grace and beauty. They were a people of love and joy. Slight and dark, they were a people set apart. Around the mountains of Caranya, men began to appear and build their cities, but deep within the …
