I Used To Fear So Much.

I was swallowing the sea, before you came and rescued me. I was drifting far away, into the abyss. The sky was all but blue. Seulement gris.

I was making castles in the mud, and you offered me a flag. 

Now I'm not alone.

Now I'm unafraid.

I used to be wrapped in the pleasures of fear. It was scary... metaphoric and realistic, yet somehow surreal.

But you know what...? I survived.

I accepted a gracious hand. 

I took steadfast strength in the meaning of faith.

I can dance in thunderstorms.

I LAUGH AT THE FACE OF FEAR.

DEAR FEAR,

YOU MAKE ME ANGRY.

AND YET, HERE I AM.

LAUGHING AT THE FACT THAT YOU ARE HERE, TRYING TO GRASP MY HAND AGAIN.

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH.

p.s. Guess what ! It's not going to happen again.

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA.

We are often greeted with our past, and whether we choose to overcome it or not ultimately decides our fate. Reader, I am sure you know of this searing pain. The sight of seeing something appear back in one's life, can be extremely writhing. 

But when we rise to the occasion, and pull out our swords... when we believe Someone greater lives within our hearts, that "thing" that almost defeated us, can be severed. 

Point is: Nous sommes forte. 

I used to fear the oppressive fog that once closed in on me. 

Fear has had a way of tightening my skin and blinding my eyes. 

It was like acid to the face and heart. 

I didn't trust anyone.

But I do not forget about that Love that has rescued me, once before; the love that had calmed such a raging thunderstorm. 

I'm entangled with this love. He will never let go of me, even if the rest of the world does. 

I'm not afraid, because His love is all I need. He is my shield, and that's a promise no monster can eat away. 

Had A Blast Today.

Walked around in my Rockstar Elf costume. :D Purple Wig that flashed red little things on thoses little clear hair-like light thingyssss.......Brainy B knows what they are :p Tie-Dye pinkishpurply leos, elfish boots, elfish hat...leather jacket....rockband guitar (ALL THANKS TO EMPRESS P!) and my super-green-sunglasses. :)
It was cool. :p

But that is beside the point. In English we watched The Sixth Sense--but we only got through about an hour and half's worth....AND NO ONES TELLIN ME THE ENDING.
Could some one please explain? I'm not going to take the time to rent it and finish it. T_T
PLEASE. :)

Another thing. We sent letters in French class involving a certain project, to different French places. We are in groups so one letter goes to a French country (my partner, C-Train's) went to Tahiti (!! exciting !!) and mine went to the "Consult General de France a Toronto."
Well.
He replied!!
Problem: I can't figure out what his note says because it's messy French writing. It's hard enough reading French, let alone messy writing. :p
I'll write it here, and if you can Athos, do you think you could figure out the missing word(s)? I've got most of it figured out....it just took a while before I noticed his "o's" were actually "a's." Go figure it's also handwriting. :p
((Excuse the lack of accents))

En reponse a votre demande, je vous envoie line brochure sur la France en general et line carte de France. 
Pour ce lui conterne de la documentation sur Tahiti, veuillez vous adresser aux Services Officiels du Tourisme francais (veu (je pense?) ci-joint papier jaune) 


Merci,
Bonne chance!

I'm thinking that he pretty much just told me that the attached yellow paper he gave me will have all the information I need. (i.e. Write to this other place and ask them, and use the website on the yellow paper for general information on Tahiti.)

I'm kind of stoked. :) It's cool writing to some one I don't know en Francais. :)

I shall leave everyone with two quotes today.  The first, because it was sent to me last week, and I find it inspiring. The second, because Lecrae posted it and I found it to also be inspiring, and utterly true (for my sake).

I'm not a Christian because I'm strong and have it all together. I'm a Christian because I'm weak and admit I need a Savior.


Hope you all have a great weekend. :)


Ciao, Jazzy
