Imagination

I love, love, loooooove the song Imagination by Bethany Dillon.
It is not only beautiful to listen to but the lyrics speak to my heart so much.

Imagination by Bethany Dillon

I need to be reminded of who I was
When I took my first steps out the door
All I said now follows me around
I'm reminded I'm not like that anymore

I uprooted and miles behind me
Are the faces and the home I love
You've brought to my attention
I'm slowly changing and becoming
What I wanted to stop

Isn't that just like a finite mind
Setting out with such righteous indignation
But now I'm at your feet
Could you look at me with some imagination

The bush before me, I slip my sandals off
I only stopped to look
In the depths of the sea, in the midst of a great storm
I run, I run from you

Isn't that just like a finite mind
Setting out with such righteous indignation
But now I'm at your feet
Could you look at me with some imagination

So remind me why you woke me up
And why you wake me every morn
The staff in my hand
Held in by your love
Just stay close, stay close

Because I know my own mind
I set out with righteous indignation
But when I'm at your feet
Please look at me with some imagination
With some imagination

I found a new (well, new to me) band that I like. :)

I'm reading "I Kissed Dating Goodbye" by Joshua Harris. I've owned it for at least 3 years, but had thought of it has a "high school" book... I guess. ha Turns out I shouldn't be so prideful cause Mr. Harris has lots of awesome things to say. I've heard there is a sequel... and I'll definitely be looking into it. Soooo, don't judge it by it's title and go read it. ;)

I went to the Boxamania ASWF wrestling function yesterday. I was expecting it to be fun, but I enjoyed it way more than I expected. haha It was hilarious, not to mention lots of super awesome people were there.

I've been in a really weird mood today. Just kinda of nonchalant. I am craving sour patch kids though.


Have a good week!

Words.

Work. Work. Work.
Bleh.
It's not just the "work". It's the minimum wage and not so nice or fair bosses.
Once books are bought and I buy stuff for my room since I won't have a roommate this year (on the bright side... that is quite exciting!) I don't think it will look like I worked this summer at all. Can someone say BUUUMMMEEERRR!?!?!?! haha

Other than work I've been trying to rock climb when I can. It's just soooo stinkin hot! But I do think I've improved some. :) Can't wait to climb with all my friends back at school. :)

Yesterday my friend Bethany and I were hanging out and she played this song in the car on the way to lunch. It was called Rocks and Water by Deb Talan. I absolutely love it.

I love how simple words and phrases can take the mind so many places. It doesn't take much does it? One word can mean so many. Add art and color to those words and it can be channeled, expanded, and detailed. Not only are word and meaning present... did you notice? Feelings. There is emotion in words too. Even when not spoken. And they can be completely different for each person, making the meaning of the word different for that person also. Amazing.
