'25' list #2

today is sunday. one of my favorite things to do on sunday is read the postsecret website.
and i save the ones i love, the ones that make me laugh, or the ones that i identify with.

so today's list of 25 is...

25 of my favorite postsecrets that i've saved through the years (in no particular order)....



isn't this so true? sometimes, just a little love works


i love the picture that goes with this one...








you'll see a couple about being open/vulnerable...this is really hard for me, so i identify with these secrets....and also, as i was reminded last night (and many other times)....to have a real, authentic relationship with others, you have to be willing to be open, honest, and vulnerable...


you all are...every single one of you.






there will also be several about love....i'm a romantic at heart, i guess...
or maybe it's that i'm a girl :)




isn't this true of some people? when you're with them, you just feel at home.








the little print at the bottom is someone who responded to this secret.
it says, "maybe you're just a part of it." that's why i love this secret.


yes. every single time.
but it doesn't necessarily have to be a door...
helping you with your coat, walking so you are safer,
pulling out chairs...it's the chivalry thing. every single time.
















nothing like a great sister and good girlfriends


this is why i do what i do...


it made me laugh :)


the important things in life...



there you have it. some of my most favorite postsecrets.
if you noticed, there were more than 25. i couldn't narrow it down :)



*edited on monday to add:
and as i'm looking back over these favorite secrets of mine, i realize that some of them are directly tied to people and events in my life -- either they reminded me of a person, i identified with the secret or had the same thing happen to me, or i feel the way the secret says about people in my life. this is probably why i like them so much.
and this is the reason i l-o-v-e postsecret so much. we're all so different, yet so very similar...and connected in so many ways. more than i think we realize.

A New Post

Y'all. I have been starting and stopping, erasing and re-writing, thinking and planning, and starting and stopping again for this post. I haven't posted since the beginning of December, and that was only a list of things I had to do for finals. Hardly note-worthy. Before that, I hadn't posted since September. Which, upon reflection, was also only a "here's what has happened in the last several weeks" post....since I hadn't updated since MAY. Clearly I'm very good at keeping up with this little blog. Probably because I'm fairly certain the only people who read this are also those that I actually update on the phone... Also, I think I've been avoiding writing anything serious for awhile because I didn't really want to think about it in such a way that would lead to a post. "It" being any number of things I've been thinking about for the last 6 months or so. Likely, another reason for this is because there are so many things ...

motivation!

i think you should know that as i was typing the title to this post, i was singing it to a made up tune in my head... i have two papers due next week. one massive one and one that won't be so difficult. this means however, that i have less than a week to finish both of them and that means that i cannot spend any time doing anything other than work, school, or writing/researching. but. i've developed this "fall break is almost here, i don't want to do anything important right now" mentality. which is curious since i'll be doing school stuff all during fall break simply to catch up and then get ahead a little. so tonight, as i am about to get started on my work, i made a "motivation sheet!" that i can look at when i want to give up: using that verse might be a bit of a stretch, since i doubt the writer was thinking about writing 20 pg papers when he said it, but it seemed to fit. it includes baking and crafting and spending time with people, of cours...

Over the Cliff

In the middle of Prince Caspian, there's a moment. Lucy has seen Aslan, but no one else has, and Aslan's told her she has to follow, whether anyone else does or not. Fortunately, they all agree to go with her. As the set off, she's the only one who can see Him, and she's leading everyone else.  "He led them to the right of the dancing trees -- whether they were still dancing nobody knew, for Lucy had her eyes on the Lion and the rest had their eyes on Lucy -- and nearer the edge of the gorge...for a long way Aslan went along the top of the precipices. Then they came to a place where some little trees grew right on the edge. He turned and disappeared among them. Lucy held her breath, for it looked as if he had plunged over the cliff..." Recently, I feel as if I've been following Jesus and He's disappeared, plunged right over the cliff. ********************* Last fall, I began thinking about words for 2017. I love the idea of claimin...
