day 14

my Christmas wishlist - and these are just going to be going from (at least for now) least to most likely:

• quality time with family
• a car
• a nice guitar
• a MacBook Air
• funding for my job next semester
• letters and cards, from ... anybody :)
• some time to rest, sleep, pray, reflect, and replenish for next semester. I want to read a book. I want to sing songs. I want to sit on a high hill overlooking a town somewhere or by the lakeside..

Undefeated, I thank God for all the unique people that each one of you are. Sometimes my patience is challenged, many times I can't do anything but laugh. I've been blessed by every piece of encouragement and affirmation I receive from so many of you, touched to see God work in ways and grow your trees into bigger trees that bear more fruit. I think the one thing that most amazes me about all of you is that you're not afraid to be who you are. Of all the things I can call this group, fake is just not one of them. Continue to be yourselves. :)
