Monologue





So It's 2010.

And I'm graduating
And I'm 18
And I'm finally learning how to drive
And I'm starting a new diet
And I'm running every day
And I can't stop crying during every movie, the most recent being Signs
And the shock of being this far into school isn't wearing off.
And life is in mega-ultra turbo drive
And I just want to breathe
And I love my guitar more then ever
And my brothers are getting too big and too strong
And I love my new room
And I'm frustrated it hasn't snowed yet
And I don't think that free snuggie I ordered is ever going to get here
And I want a dog
And I miss Christmas
And I baked really great pancakes today
And I'm excited to fast after all this holiday feasting
And all my endeavors seem possible
And God is consistently showering love and grace over me
And I'm happy

Welcome 2010
To a life well lived
And loved

  2. I clicked on the link on facebook and landed here. I read the line about signs and laughed. I watched signs and almost cried when the little kid had to kill the dog.

  3. I cried at the end when the kid says , "Did somebody save me?" And the Dad is all weepy and says, "Yes, I think someone did."

    SO SWEET!
