Life can change in an instant; don't be so worried about the future that you forget to celebrate what you have right now.

christian letting-go jesus
You know, Sage, Jesus didn't tell us to forgive everyone. He said turn the other cheek, but only if you the one who was hit. Even the Lord's Prayer says it loud and clear: Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. Not others. What Jesus challenges us to do is to let go of the wrong done to you personally, not the wrong done to someone else. But most Christians incorrectly assume that this means that being a good christian means forgiving all sins, and the sinners.

communication faces facts
I don't know what it is about death that makes it so hard. I suppose it's the one-sided communication; the fact that we never get to ask our loved one if she suffered, if she is happy wherever she is now...if she is somewhere. It's the question mark that comes with death that we can't face, not the period.

All any of us wanted, really, was to know that we counted. That someone else's life would not have been as rich without us here.
falling-in-love heart thinking
I don’t think anyone who falls in love has a choice. You’re just pulled to that person like true north, whether it’s good for you or bound to break your heart.
truth lying believe
The truth doesn't always set you free; people prefer to believe prettier, neatley wrapped lies
details forget-you sometimes
Life sometimes gets so bogged down in the details, you forget you are living it.
