lend me your ears and i'll sing you a song

hokay so.

i am currently in an oversized grey hoodie. sitting on the couch. in birmingham. being here is so uncomfortable. dont get me wrong. i love my family. i love this house. i love memories of growing up here, running through the woods behind the house to hang out with the neighborhood kids, riding bicycles in the front, waiting to hear the ice cream truck bells, theres just so many. but i feel like i've grown out of this town. i feel unfit, out of place. its ok. i do love nashville with my whole heart. i love its newness, its possibilities, the community, the magic. i wish i had the ability to steal every one of my friends who do not live in nash and relocate them to my neighborhood.

life has its ups and downs right now. i am content with that. it has this calm sweetness about it, that i absolutely love. i feel close to God, i feel as if he's an old friend i want to get coffee with often and learn and grow and laugh and cry with. i am really excited about that.

theres a tornado warning at the moment. hey, weather, can you just cut it out? kthanks.

current events have challenged me to raise the bar a bit, in the department of a future mate. integrity and humility are absolutely make or breaks. and pursuit. absolutely. i am a catch, mister.. ha. =)

my latest tattoo is nicely turning into conversations about my hope and comfort, and i am so thankful for that. its so great to see how God can use anything for his glory.

hey, across the universe, i know i was late in watching your movie and listening to your soundtrack, but thank you thank you for all that you are. i am currently obsessed. thank you.

death cab next week. fun, in bham, in a few weeks. coldplay in a month. music music! i love you!
