To love at all is to be vunerable. Love anything, and your heart will certianly be wrung and possibly broken. IF you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carful round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in the casket- safe, dark, motionless, airless- it will change. It will not be broken, it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable...The only place out-side heaven where you can be perfectly safe from all the dangers of love...is hell- - C.S. Lewis - The Four loves

ME + BUSES =VERRY VERRY VERRY BAD

Ok so the other day (being yesterday) I had to bus downtown by myself. And givin my trak reccord with my luck on buses, this is verry verry risky. I have a tendancy to get lost.
But this time not only did I get lost in the middle of Down town,I fell in a hole.
Thats right a hole!
I was walking looking for a familiar site- there for looking up- not down at where my feet were going. Little do I realize thatI am walking in a construction site where people are digging, and i fall in one oh their holes. IT was HALARIOUS. I also lost my bus transfer and spilt my ice cap, lost 10 dollars and got splashed by a cra on the road
moral of the story
BUSES ARE EVIL

Ontario

So I'm sitting on a bedwith NAtalie's laptop waiting fir her to wake up. It is now 8;25am I have no idea how I qoke up by my self at this time. I hope NAt wakes up soon. I want to do stuff before I go to the airport. Anywho I just spent the last 5 days in Ontario visiting NAt and a bunch of other people so I thaught I 'd take this chance to talk about my stay.On thursday I went to bible college with NAt. It was excellent. I went to 2 classes- one was Short term missions and the other was cross cultural studies. I found these classes extremely interesting, and some very interesting didcussions came about. If anything going wiht NAt to her school made me more eggar to graduate and more excited to go to bible college in Winnipeg.
On Friday and Saturday we were at a worship conference. I forget what the theme was but that was also excellent. The worship was amazing and beautiful. The freedom in that place was excellent. I really don't know how else to describe the worship. They had flag dancers there- who danced spontaniously through out the worship services. They also had profetic paint, where someone painted a picture as an act of worship. I did't get to see someone pain, but i did see some finished art work and it was beautiful. The speaker was excellent. HAve you ever gone to a service and it just seemed like every single thing the speaker said was directed at you? Cuz that was what it was like for me. The speaker chalenged me to grow and to not be afraid to use the gifts that God gave me. He also reminded me that even with imperfections I can still be used and I am still loved. He also reminded me that sometimes God takes us on detours and we have no clue where we are going or what we are doing. But we are with God and he knows the exact route. We just need to walk on the road and be obedient. I really really really enjoyed the conference.
Saturday night I hung out with camp peoples we went to a resturante and watched Pride and Predijuce. BEST MOVIE IN THE WORLD- EVERY GUY SHOULD WATCH IT AND TAKE NOTES ON MR DARCY!!!!
Sunday was good times to. We went to NAts church. It was a good service. Then we went back and eat food and hung out with some people. Good times. Then we went to their night service where it was a family movie night. We watched Veggie tales' Lord of the Beans. I kinda fell asleep in the midddle of it so I cant really tell you how it was. But its veggie tales so I am asuming it was excellent.

Now that brings me to Monday. it is now 8;41 and I am still awaiting NAtalies awakage ( that is now a new word).Today I will be going back to Winnipeg were life will go back to its abnormality. This was almost like a retreat for me. I learned alot and got a lovley break from everything. I'll be home soon. I think I am going to pack my stuff now so i don't have to do it later. I am a genious....Anywho thats all for now folks

Shine Bright

There once was a young boy who was terrified of the dark. One day there was a terrible thunderstorm and there was a power out. Leaving the young boy scared and alone, the mother went into the closet to get some candles. When she went into the closet, she went to pick up one of the candles. "Not me !" the candle yelled. "I don't have enough experence." "Not me" said another. "I'm too young". "I can't do it" said another. "I'm worried my light might not shinebright enough". The mother left the closet empty handed. She found no candle brave enough to take a chance. The funny thing was, each candle was made with the purpose to give a light.Each of them could have impacted the little boy's life. Even though they each knew they were made to eliminate darkness, none of them were willing to take a chance....

That can be like us somtimes. God has given us all gifts. We know them and that they have a purpose, but sometimes we are scared to use them and don't. But this is what I think. God blesses us with talents and abilities and we should never be afraid to use them, because you never know whos life might be changed by your light.
