Weekends...

I have a new appreciation for weekends. This week has been insane. I started my junior year on Monday. I'm exhausted. I have been all week. School is going well. I feel like I have a massive amount to get done, but it's going good. I do have a massive amount to get done. This week was nice because we didn't have anything going on. Next week, we do, so we'll see how it goes. I don't know how people do it with crazy schedules. I don't know why they always like to be busy. Just sit back and enjoy life. Stop running around. That's my opinion. It's obviously not everyone's. Obviously. I try to take joy in the simple things. Getting to do Bible study in the evening with your siblings at home, cooking, spending time with family, writing letters, journals, laughter, walks, sunsets. I love my life. I was thinking the other day about how much God has changed my life from a year ago. It's amazing how much. Huge. I am so thankful.

It rained tonight. We haven't had rain in awhile, so it was really great. It's been so dry. Sometimes a person needs a storm to get them to realize what their doing with their life. That's what happened to me.

Storm Lifehouse

How long have I been in this storm?
So overwhelmed by the ocean's shapeless form
Water's getting harder to tread
With these waves crashing over my head

If I could just see you
Everything would be all right
If I'd see you
This darkness would turn to light

And I will walk on water
And you will catch me if I fall
And I will get lost into your eyes
And know everything will be all right
And know everything is all right

I know you didn't bring me out here to drown
So why am I ten feet under and upside down
Barely surviving has become my purpose
Because I'm so used to living underneath the surface

If I could just see you
Everything would be all right
If I'd see you
This darkness would turn to light

And I will walk on water
And you will catch me if I fall
And I will get lost into your eyes
And know everything will be all right

And I will walk on water
And you will catch me if I fall
And I will get lost into your eyes
And know everything will be all right

And know everything is all right
Everything is all right

Everything is all right

That's all.
