In the shadows of tall buildings Of fallen angels on the ceilings Oily feathers in bronze and concrete Faded colors, pieces left incomplete The line moves slowly past the electric fence Across the borders between continents In the cathedrals of ...

There's this website where you can send an e-mail to your future self (www.futureme.org)... right now you could write an e-mail that you wouldn't see again till the year 2037. I just found out yesterday that it works.

Don't let your mind get weary and confused Your will be still don't try Don't let your heart get heavy Child inside you there's a strength that lies Don't let your soul get lonely Child it's only time, it will go by Don't look for love in faces...

I tend to get drawn into a lot of my dad's interests. He has a way of convincing you that his idea is THE idea. I love asking critical questions so much because growing up, my dad would tell me what he thought about something and I'd want to di...

putting it all into context

I've decided this weekend I'm going to take some time and review the past year. Somehow, I think I'm going to be encouraged. I've had quite a long journey in my battle with perfectionism, and this year I found some victory over it. I remember...

Stories

No. 7 Dr. Bill Brown and some proverbs

2008-02-12T21:55:51Z

I used to go to a school called Cedarville University. I go back and forth as to whether I liked the place or not... truth is, I liked the people. After my sophomore year, the president of the college retired after 25 years of service. And so ...
