Gathering and spending, we lay waste our powers
~~~
Day’s Verse:
“we are afflicted in every way, but no despairing; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; always carrying about in the body the dying ofJesus, so that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body. For we who live are constantly being delivered over to death for Jesus’ sake, [...]

Where is it now, the glory and the dream?
~~~
Day’s Verse:
Love… endures forever.
1 Cor 13:7
~~~
Title credits to Wordsworth’s Intimations of Immortality.
God created people; he gives us value. Many churches say that because He numbered your days, killing yourself should never be an option. I was thinking, however, about Ian’s grandma who had Alzheimer’s and passed away while Jess and I were on our road [...]

SPECIAL NOTICE: IT IS DONE

Day’s Verse:

Can’t remember

That is, as of just now I submitted a tranfer application to WPI and my pulse rate is way too high. I don’t know what’s so pulse-raising about this, aside from the fact that if they accept me it will be a [...]

Shuttlizing As A Though-Provoking Experience
~~~
Day’s Verse:
“brethren, if anyone is caught in any trespass, you who are spiritual, restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness; each one looking to yourself so that you too will not be tempted. Bear one another’s burdens… For if anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself… Each one [...]

Word of the Semester: Lonely
~~~
Day’s Verse:
Love… endures all things.
1 Cor. 13:7
~~~
Either “lonely” or “perseverance.” Only a few weeks have elapsed, but I’d swear that I have aged ten years. For lonely, I count my close Clark friends a completely loss: I may yet see the people, but the closeness has gone. I am a shadow on the wall, a [...]

Only For the Countdown
~~~
Day’s Verse:
“…we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope.”
Romans 5:3-4
~~~
Cannot say that today is exceptional. I kept waking up all night expecting Ian to be there, but alas; alas. (Pardon any typos, I’m doing this with my glasses off) Generally I’m feeling difficult and uncommunicative. I feel [...]

Day’s Verse:
Love… endures all things.
1 Cor. 13:7
~~~
I am always amazed by the emptiness I feel when Ian and I stop talking. Online is so unsatisfying, yet it’s still better than nothing. Though it isn’t as acute, I can still say quite honestly: I miss Ian so much. Something is just not right with life when [...]

A Political Statement.

Day’s Verse:
“It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me.”
Galations 2:20

“I consider George Bush to be only one step removed from an international war criminal and I kind of feel a moral obligation take at least some small steps to try to get rid of him.” – Dad

Happy Birthday, Ian!
~~~
Day’s Verse:
“Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”
John 14:27

I am amazed. Today a carpool from First Alliance Church picked me up (they said “Hi, Katie”, so that was good); when [...]
