Grant me strength and trust in Your abundance tomorrow morning. You are so good to me, and no matter what, Your plan is wonderful.

And as City Harmonic says... AHHH-MENNNNNNNNNNNN!!!

gratifying

There is something gratifying about receiving email responses from people on the same day that the original email was sent. Sort of like when you see an increase in your score over time due to steady studying. It's a feeling of "hey, this is exactly how I hoped things would turn out."

I hope things can continue down this path in a grander scale, but I know that even if they don't, God's plan not aligning with my own is something I can embrace anyway.

blogging

Is it just me, or do writers oftentimes question their own writing ability? But "non-writers" (if that is a real category) probably do that too. Maybe everyone is a writer, just of varying skill levels. Who knows.

I'm also pretty sure that blogs exist only so you can look back in the future and laugh at yourself, and (hopefully) see how far you have come.

Ranch > Two-story

Having lived in both structures for a thorough amount of time now, I just wanted to provide a note to self for the future...

Everyone being on one story promotes community and communication. You get less people separating themselves into their own rooms on different floors with people hollering and replying "WHAT?!" because they're too far away to hear each other. Plus, in the summer time the second floor gets too dang hot.

On a separate but related note: trade that second story in for a basement. Provides the perfect cool (in both senses) hangout place yet with ample communication ability - just a shout downstairs or loud stomp away.
