Try to imagine
a world without our Lord
dark
desolate
empty.
How can they live?
What is the point in life if none in Christ?
They have their twisted little worlds
in their dark hopeless minds.
Have they no hope?
Without You-
none.
You're a light
in this world.
You bring meaning
in my life.
A life with You
a life of joy and peace.

Fairy Tales...

Enchanted frogs
golden maidens
fierce dragons
knights in shining armor
to rescue me
chivalry
secretive glades of pastures green
fairies dancing
flying
laughing
glittering
spiraling up
shooting stars

Snow

Downward drifting
gently sifting
pure white flakes
cold and crisp
soft and brisk
this snow makes;
glittering castles
wonderland tassels
ice and snow
forever falling
gently calling

I hope you like my first pitiful attempt at poetry and free verse. I don't think I'd be able to ever compare my best with heidi's worst (if she has any)

Downhill

Just to let you all know, this isn't about boarding, because... I've never been boarding before. BUT, it is about blading, which is super cool too. I'm sure I'll be able to write another one after my first time boarding... except probably alot slower, lol. Just to let you know, I haven't edited anything on it yet, because I'm basically really bored right now, so its another quickly write and post thing. Which is what this blog consists of... so if it sucks, then... its because I didn't get too much time to write it, and its late ;-)

The icy cold wind sent my hair streaming behind me. The sleek white snow beneath my snow blades sent me speeding down the steep hill. The exhilaration of the feeling made my heart beat faster. I slowed down for a moment and took in a deep breath of the fresh crisp air around me. The tree's all around me glittered in the sunlight as the snow and ice reflected off of their bare branches. I felt as though I was in a winter wonderland. A skier came down the trail behind me silently, and me after having slowed down, watched as he whizzed past. I smiled slowly and put my blades straight again and sped down the hill once more. My fingers were half frozen, my face almost numb, and I was sore from numerous falls, but none of that mattered when I felt the wind and sun in my face and the adrenaline in my veins.

Amnesia

There I was. I was staring at myself in the mirror... trying to recognize the reflection that stared back at me. Her midnight black hair shimmered in the short shoulder length that it fell to. My icy blue eyes searched for something, anything. I remembered nothing. My complexion was flawless and light. My dainty nose held no freckle or blemish, but only pale skin, like the rest of me. My slightly arching eyebrows suited my petite, mature face. If I had to guess at the age of the reflection before me, I might have guessed 17 or 18.
I propped myself up on the dingy sink and let my head drop from the questioningly gaze from my image in the mirror. One stray thought kept on coming into my head, over and over. Who am I?
I stood back up straight, and without looking back to the cracked mirror, I turned around and sat in the corner of the small bathroom. I hugged my knee's to my chest and sat there, staring. The off-white tiles in my line of vision had smudges of dirt and residue on them, the corners between the poorly tiled walls and the linoleum flooring had dust, dirt, and who knows what else in them.
I had no idea why I was here, what I was doing, and most importantly, who I was.

Please excuse this. It had to come out... bad thing for me (and those who read it) That its coming out at the end of day... past the time I usually go to bed... when I write my worst. Maybe one day I'll edit it. But for now, this is what you get ;-)
I'm off to sleep, and my dreams. G'night!

Sunshine and darkness.

There they were, they were almost identical, but both of them also could not be more different. There they stood face to face. One was blonde, her natural light hair shimmered in the light of the sun, her blue eyes held hope, promise, and love. Her smile went past her thin lips, past her lightly freckled cheeks, and radiated from even her eyes. Her figure was slight, and petite.
Across from her stood her twin, dark and shadowed. She reflected her sister like a sick reflection of a mirror. Her hair was dry and obviously dyed. It gleamed a dull black, her lifeless blue eyes had dark shadows beneath them as she sneered at her joyful sister. Her pale face looked shallow and starved. Her frame was slighter, thinner, more petite than that of her sister. She looked unhealthy, almost too frail to be able to stand. Her black ragged clothing made her look worse.
How did it get that way? One so full of life, another, so hopeless. The first made a decision. She gave her life to God. The second... she gave her life to the evil lusts of the world. She chose to be what the world wanted, and the world rejected her.

Ok, that was somewhat pitiful. But, for lack of anything to write, I started rambling on what nonsense was in my head. By the way, none of it was edited. I decided since not many people read my blog, I might as well not bother editing. Its supposed to be a good exercise in writing.. or so they say.
Anyways, cheers and g'night all my adoring fans! (which amount to... one or two people? lol)

Quotes

Here are some quotes that I like about sisters...

Having a sister is like having a best friend you can't get rid of. You know whatever you do, they'll still be there. ~Amy Li

A sister is a little bit of childhood that can never be lost. ~Marion C. Garretty

If you don't understand how a woman could both love her sister dearly and want to wring her neck at the same time, then you were probably an only child. ~Linda Sunshine

You can kid the world. But not your sister. ~Charlotte Gray

A sister can be seen as someone who is both ourselves and very much not ourselves - a special kind of double. ~Toni Morrison

If your sister is in a tearing hurry to go out and cannot catch your eye, she's wearing your best sweater. ~Pam Brown

lol, all of these quotes are true... especially that last one. Ok, so what if I'm the one who is wearing the sweater... lol.
Here are some friendship quotes. I dedicate them to my best friends (you girls know who you are!)

A friend is one of the nicest things you can have, and one of the best things you can be. ~Douglas Pagels

Friendship isn't a big thing - it's a million little things. ~Author Unknown

You can always tell a real friend: when you've made a fool of yourself she doesn't feel you've done a permanent job. ~Laurence J. Peter

Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art.... It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things that give value to survival. ~C.S. Lewis

A friend is a person with whom I may be sincere. Before him, I may think aloud. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Friendship is born at the moment when one person says to another "What! You too? I thought that of no one but myself.” ~C.S. Lewis

Hope you guys like these... I know I do. :-)
