He who knows nothing, loves nothing. He who can do nothing understands nothing. He who understands nothing is worthless. But he who understands also loves, notices, sees...The more knowledge is inherent in a thing, the greater the love...Anyone who imagines that all fruits ripen at the same time as the strawberries knows nothing about grapes. --Paracelsus

I'm Alright by Bebo Norman

I've got a little hope in my pocket, I want to share a bit with you
Just be careful that you don't drop it, but don't worry it you do
'Cause I got broken down inside me, and I might just need some help
But I will get by

And I've got demons in my history, got bone beneath my skin
But I've been taken by a mystery, yes, I've been taken in
And sometimes voices down inside me try to fight me for myself
I will get by

What have I got to live for
If there's nothing beating in my chest
What have I got to live for
When this world starts turning, it's burning me up
I'm alright

I used to think love was just a barter, second hand coincidence
What doesn't kill you just makes you harder, so I used my common sense
Keeping cold to keep my distance, 'til you took my pride away
Now I will get by...



An unexpected call made me realize G is SO good---that He is doing so much for those around me, that the world is beautiful from all other angles, that I just need to open my eyes. While I may not have the strength to minister to those around me right now, I do not always have to be the one to be ready to. I am humbled to admit that I'm waiting for G to refill my very own cup. But to know that He is here, for me, for my friends and my family, I am not afraid, no, I am not afraid...
