Friends

You know how nice it is to have friends?  If you're like me, you don't have a lot of friends (I mean, I'm not on Sherlock's level or anything).  The interesting thing is, you don't need a bunch of friends in order to be happy.  You really only need a few good ones.  It's interesting how God puts people into our lives specifically.  I'm a strong believer in the fact that God makes two people meet on purpose.  Or He at least gives them a gentle nudge towards each other.

The main point of what I'm trying to write is that it's nice to have someone to trust and someone to talk to about your joy, sadness, excitement, and basically anything else.  I know this was a really short post, but I wanted to take a moment to really appreciate the friends God has given me.

Anything You Want

You know how great life in general is?  I mean, think about it!  God made our bodies to breathe in a special and complex way.  He made blood to make sure that our body would work properly.  He made eyes, ears, noses, taste, and the ability to feel things so that we can experience the world around us.  He made feet so that we could walk around and see all that there is to see.  There is often a sudden realization for me that I can literally walk anywhere I want and I can talk to whoever I want to talk to!  I can do literally anything!  Isn't that great?  You can do anything you want, anytime you want!  Come on, that's amazing!  So, I just want to encourage you to do something constructive that you've always wanted to do!  I mean, it doesn't have to be big.  It could be baking something you've never baked, walking somewhere you've never walked, meeting someone you've wanted to meet.  Not to steal off of Nike or anything, but just do it!  If it fails, look on the bright side!  At least you can say that you've tried it!

P.S.

Today I got tickets to go to an Owl City concert!  I'm really, really, really, pumped!  Okay, that's it.  YAY!

Once again,

Noise

You know how great noise is?

Okay, I haven't written in forever, and I'm really sorry about that.  Moving on!

Noise is a wonderful thing (no, not the Colton Dixon song, although that's great, too).  Think about how eerie and silent a world would be without noise!  I mean, if there was no noise in the middle of a city, it wouldn't really be much of a city anymore.  It would just be quiet, and sad, and you couldn't hear the cars and the people and the birds and the other assorted sounds.  There wouldn't be music, people talking at Starbucks, little kids asking their parents for something, there's just be...silence.  No, Whovians, not the Silence...although that's bad, too.

You don't really think about the simple things in life until they're gone.  Maybe just walking around Walmart with ear plugs might make us more aware of how meaningfully God made this world.  I personally would like to try and appreciate what God has intricately given us, and never take it for granted, you know?  However, for now I have to go.
