Just Go!

The trouble with worrying so much about your security in the future is that you feel so insecure in the present.

Harlan Miller

Motives & Thoughts, VII

Have you ever felt like God has failed you? I'm so mad at Him right now. I can't help but wonder: is He really listening or is He up there laughing?

Motives & Thoughts, IV

To the lonelyhearts and lovefools—my dear counterparts:

"When you long with all your heart for someone to love you, a madness grows there that shakes all sense from the trees and the water and the earth. And nothing lives for you, except the long deep bitter want. And this is what everyone feels from birth to death."

Denton Welch

Motives & Thoughts, III

If I had the means... the money... the ability... I’d run to Haiti in a heartbeat. It sucks to work because you have to. I’d like to just pick up and go, go, go! The desire to go out and save people is in me. These videos, these photos! My dear God.

Motives & Thoughts, II

This made me cry

I'm sipping hot cocoa

It's chilly out

It's rather late

but I can't sleep.

I've been re-reading this all night. Say it out loud.

"When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, 'I used everything you gave me.'"
Erma Bombeck

I hope this is the case for me.

We'll see.

Motives & Thoughts, I

"Puerto Rico. My heart's devotion. [Don't] let it sink back in the ocean. [So what if] the hurricanes [are sometimes] blowing, [and] the population [is] growing, and the money owing, and the sunlight streaming, and the natives steaming. I [don't] like the island Manhattan! Smoke on your pipe and put that in!"

My version of the classic song "America" from West Side Story.
