Loneliness…

Just a little quote today, from Bob Gass I believe:

“Loneliness is not lack of people around you, but lack of direction in your life.”

What does anyone else think?

Sunset….

It has been such a beautiful evening, I went out and took some pictures around my house again. The picture above is the view in front of my house, the sunset was just too beautiful to not photograph. How great is our God eh?!

first time…

“Through these misty eyes, It’s plain to see,
Even though you’re here, you’re not with me.
Tortured by the thought, torn in two,
Reason needs no voice, when you know its true…

I try to speak, but my tongue gets tied,
I try to seek, But you’re hard to find,
My will is weak, ’cause my heart’s resigned,
It’s like I’m seeing you for the first time.”

My will is weak because my heart’s resigned… it’s like i’m seeing you for the first time.

Not sure what it is about those lyrics, but they strick a chord with me at the minute.

Freedom…

At last! It was my last day of school today… until septemer… except for exams. doesnt seem that significant when you write it like that. I must admit today i’ve been feeling very… whats the word? Oh i dont know! I’ve been in a very strange mood anyway. Half times totally looped, hyper, half times falling asleep. Seems to be a recurring thing now, has happened a few times. Wonder what causes it?

‘ Why would you ever complain, O Jacob,
or, whine, Israel, saying,
“God has lost track of me.
He doesn’t care what happens to me”?
Dont you know anything? Haven’t you been listening?
God doesn’t come or go. God lasts.
He’s creator of all you can see or imagine.
He doesn’t get tired out, doesn’t pause to catch His breath.
And He knows everything, inside and out.
He energizes those who get tired,
gives fresh strength to dropouts.
For even young people tire and drop out,
young folk in their prime stumble and fall.
But those who wait upon God get fresh strenght.
They spread their wings and soar like eagles,
They run and don’t get tired,
they walk and don’t lag behind.’

[Isaiah 40:27-31 The Message]
