i'm really glad that i made this blog. I was just reading through my blog and other peoples, and it makes me really happy to read whats going on in other people live and seeing how they put it into writing. it inspires me extraordinarily. i also enjoy reading through my past. it reminds me of things i had forgotten. it's going to be cool when i've had this for about a year and reading it from the beginning.

so i have discovered something new about myself, which i have bee doing for a long time, but just took note of it. when i discover a new band or just discover that i really like them after knowing about them for a while, i listen to them for about a week straight, and i usually have one of their songs stuck in my head for that period. for example, a few weeks ago the band was enter the worship circle, and this week it has been leeland. then, if i have their cd, i will rotate through the cd's and listen to them at intervals. it's kind of funny. i wonder if everyone does this. hmmm.

last night i was just observing our youth group. it gave me hope. i saw the members of the worship team and it made me smile. they were worshiping in practice and everything was just molding together perfectly. honestly i have been a little concerned lately, but God has just been telling me over and over and over and over that everything is going to be okay. i think it's finally beginning to become reality to me. yey!

i've had this excitement in me for the future and its rising and bubbling up again. when i was looking back, i was greatful for the experiences that i had this summer, but now it is time to look ahead at the rising sun.

I don't want to lose a common ground
With the whole world upside-down
I don't want to fight about it now
And the world was burning out
we are one tonight
and were singing it out
we are one tonight
and were dreaming out loud
and the world is flawed,
but these scars will heal
