On My Mind

"The worth and excellence of a soul is to be measured by the object of its love."
Henry Scougal

"For the human spirit caught within a spinning universe in an ever confusing flow of events, circumstance and inner turmoil, to seek truth has always been to seek the invariable, whether it is called Ideas, Form, Archetypes, Numbers or Gods."
Robert Lawlor - Sacred Geometry

I went to church this morning in Manhattan, I haven't been back like I had planned when I went home for the summer. I'm all excited, there's a new youth minister and new kids and I am ready to see how I can be used. I walk in and there some young girls sitting in the room that I've never meet, and none of the kids from last year. Trying my best to be a good youth sponsor I go up to them and say "Hello, I'm Julianne." and I put out my hand. And nothing. . . they just stare at me. So I say "And your name is...?" Then they introduce themselves. As I'm sitting down one of the girls says, as only a junior high girl can, "So what are you, like, a high schooler or something?"

Camping Notes to self
1. If your father sounds like a garbage truck at night, make other sleeping arrangements than in a tent with him. And check the weather forcast.
2. Put Abbey's cooler under someone else's cooler who doesn't have vodka in their water bottle.
3. Don't leave your favorite camoflauge k-state ball cap in your drunk brother's canoe if you ever want to see it again.


4. Seven is the most 20 some year olds you can fit in one canoe and get very far.
