forgiveness

to forgive someone is to forswear resentment, anger, or other reactions to their having done something that justifies such responses. The philosophical problem is that this is apparently treating them better than they deserve; but how can it be a requirement, or even be permissible, to treat someone in any other way than as they deserve? The advice of Augustine, that we hate the sin but not the sinner also suggests an objective or impersonal attitude towards the sinner, as if the character of the agent is only accidentally connected with the hatefulness of his or her actions, and it has been argued, that this objective stance is inconsistent with full recognition of the personhood of others.

answers.com is always right. so there skylar.

(extremely) belated dance pictures

Ugh. You know how all digital cameras have that, "delete all of the pictures button"? Well, they shouldn't. One of these days, someone smart is going to invent one that can't delete them all. Ugh! I lost almost all of my dance pictures. Luckily, I had already started transfering them to the computer, but I still only have a few...*sniff* I'm sorry to let you people down! *sniff*

I just have the last 10 or so pictures that I took. They're not really worth posting, but why not?
(we missed you madison!!!!)

"to swallow greedily or rapidly in large amounts.

I can't WAIT for youth conference! :) More good times to come. :P Come people, okay? Don't be ditching youth conference...seriously not cool. don't upset me.

oh yeah, rock on.

dance like nobody's watching

I know I always made a big deal about dances, but I wasn't expecting anything that special on Friday. I just wanted to be there. Just to be able to say I could be there...=D

As it turned out the dance was, for lack of a better word, AWESOME! It rocked both of my socks off! Everything and everyone looked so good. There was that episode when Marystar shoved me on the floor and broke my bracelet, but you know, things happen. For my first, hahahahahahahaha! *ahem* sorry, my first dance, it was probably the best one I've ever been to. I mean, that I've not been to. ;) Yeah, I've decided there's no need to start counting down to 15. I'm old enough to last me a year. :) rock on!

Pictures are coming--Stay tuned!

It made me cry, so I had to share

These streets
Turn me inside out
Everything shines
But leaves me empty still
And I'll, burn this lonely house down
If you run with me
If you run with me

I'll stay with you
The walls will fall before we do
Take my hand now
We'll run forever
I can feel the storm inside you
I'll stay with you

Fooled by my own desires
I twist my fate
Just to feel you
But you, turn me toward the light
And you're one with me
Will you run with me?

I'll stay with you
The walls will fall before we do
Take my hand now
We'll run forever
I can feel the storm inside you
I'll stay with you

Now come in from this storm
I taste you sweet and warm
Take what you need
Take what you need
From me

Wake up this world
Wake up tonight
And run with me
Run to me now

I'll stay with you
The walls will fall before we do
Take my hand now
We'll run forever
I can feel the storm inside you
I'll stay with you
