When you mess with one part of a person's life, you're not messing with just that part. Unfortunately, you can't be that precise and selective. When you mess with one part of a person's life, you're messing with their entire life. ~13 Reasons Why Continue reading ...

"Why would [a] loving God demand that we seek out satisfaction in Him alone? Why would He thwart all of our attempts to be happy without Him? It is simply because He is loving that He does this. If He knows that He is the only source of true pleasure and satisfaction, then it would be unloving of Him to let us go on our merry ways, trying to satisfy ourselves without Him, knowing all the while that our lives will end in futility and despair." ~Elyse Fitzpatrick Continue reading ...

Patience; kindness; generosity; humility; courtesy; unselfishness; good temper; guilelessness; sincerity-- these make up the supreme gift; the staure of a perfect man. you will observe that all are in relation to men, in relation to life, in relation to the known today and the near tomorrow, and not to the unknown eternity. We hear much of love to God; Christ spoke much of love to man. We make a great deal of peace with Heaven; Christ made much of peace on earth. Religion is not a strange... Continue reading ...

The question is not yet settled, whether madness is or is not the loftiest intelligence-- whether much that is glorious-- whter all that is profound-- does not spring from disease of thought-- from moods of mind exalted at the expense of general intellect. They who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night. In their gray visions they obtain visions of eternity, and thrill, in awakening, to find that they have been on the verge of the great secret. ... Continue reading ...

"[Telling stories] is important," the man in they grey suit interrupts. "Someone needs to tell those tales. When the battles are fought and won and lost, when the pirates find their treasures and the dragons eat their foes for breakfast with a nice cup of Lapsang souchong, someone needs to tell their bits of overlapping narrative. There's a magic in that. It's in the listener, and for each and every ear it will be different, and it will affect them in ways they can never predict. From the mun... Continue reading ...

"Stories have changed, my dear boy," the man in the grey suit says, his voice almost imperceptibly sad. "There are no more battles between good and evil, no monsters to slay, no maidens in need of rescue. Most maidens are perfectly capable of rescuing themselves in my experience, at least the ones worth something, in any case. There are no longer simple tales with quests and beasts and happy endings. The quests lack clarity of goal or path. The beasts take different forms and are difficult to... Continue reading ...

“It is a curious thing, but as one travels the world getting older and older, it appears that happiness is easier to get used to than despair. The second time you have a root beer float, for instance, your happiness at sipping the delicious concoction may not be quite as enormous as when you first had a root beer float, and the twelfth time your happiness may be still less enormous, until root beer floats begin to offer you very little happiness at all, because you have become used to the t...
