Talk/Walk

Talk. Sweet talk. You talking to me. Talk to me.

I'm behind the wheel and I think of what I should say.
The confusion of me won't stop me from having a good day.
There are ten cars on the road tonight. Number eleven would be me.
I got music streaming in my ear. And guess what. Its sweet, so sweet.

Talk. Sweet talk. You talking to me. Talk to me.

I wasn't running away, but I wonder, I wonder if I should.
Wild thoughts like these go through my head while I sit on the hood.
My head is resting on my arms. Curled up by myself without you.
Is getting over this the right thing that I should do?

But I hear you... Talk. Sweet talk. You talking to me. Talk to me.
But I feel you... Walk. Slowly walk. Walk next to me. Walk with me.

Tell me the truth. The whole truth. Tell me nothing but the truth.
So help me God I will not dare make it something it's not.

Talk. Sweet talk. You talking to me. Talk to me.
Walk. Slowly walk. Walk next to me. Walk with me.

I Wish

I wish I was by her side. I wish I could tell her... I wish nothing would ever separate the space between us. I wish the time would never end. I wish you were in my arms. I wish I could tell you those three magic words. I wish I was by her side. I wish...

A.Y.C.

I am back from AYC. My brothers and I got home around 10:15 last night. This past week has been awesome, the best ever! I had lots of fun meeting new ppl, seeing old friends, hanging out, playing games, great services, food, Bible Bowl, etc. I am glad to say I won Bible Bowl this year keeping the legacy alive with 1,685 points. I think my favorite two sermon titles were Failure is not Final and Having a Meaning Devotional Life. One great thing I'll never forget is the ride home with Sam, Keith and Josh. We stopped for gas and food and we ate at Wendy's. :) I won't go into the whole story but lets just say that the ppl working there will never be the same. lol. This week has been better than I ever hoped.

I thought I'd also share some good lines from camp from this year and past years.

"Did that fall over?"
"It's not about you, its about me."
" Those dirt stains on your mattress, they're not dirt."
" We'll all fall asleep and it won't matter."
" Go to bed"
" This is what dreams are made of."
" Must be nice..."

Sit still

You cannot imagine my xcitement for next week. I can already sit here long enough to type this ( plus I need to finish packing today). A.Y.C. is one of my favorite times of the year. I think it falls maybe ahead of my b-day cuz who cares if your a year older anyways. :) I'm listening to upbeat music getting my adrenaline rush stirred up. CAMP IS HERE!!!

Summer Fun


I love this season. Seeing the lightning bugs in the night sky. Able to sleep under the stars in the warm breeze. The heat is a warm welcome from the winter freeze. During the day, able to soak up the sunshine. Making a goal to work on your tan once again this year. Hitting the beach and water with enthusiasm. Trying to avoid the three leaved branches on your hikes through the forest. Excited to see God's green creation in full life. You can't help but feel alive like everything around you. Don't forget the fireworks on the holidays. Watching a painted sky with those close to you. What is not to like about this sweet time of year with summer break and the blessings of it. The green grass and colorful flowers are showing their glory. I think this is my favorite season. - JDM

Cedar

Yesterday Sam, Mel, Rosie and I went to Cedar Point. Score! Nothing like rides to set your heart pounding, screaming your head off and eating the fun food. :) Sad to say that Rosie lost her celly, hopefully they can find it. Also, I am sure that Rosie is now convinced to start a blog of her own and realize the necessity of it. Every ride we went on was totally awesome in its own way beyond description. I think it was one of the funest days of this year.

Thank God

I'm up just a little early, but I thank God that I have been able to work the last couple days. I am helping my mom's cousin roofing. Hopefully, it looks like we will finish up today and I will have worked over 25 hours. The down side to this is that I have to get up a little after 6 each morning and if you know me being a teenager, it kills. I'm tired already and I've only been up 45 minutes. What I want to do is crawl back into my warm, soft bed and forget my life and dream of a place that dosen't wake me up just for work, food, studying, regular life, etc. I miss the days when I could sleep in. lol.

I Know.

I don't know what all is going through your head. If this is nothing then just let me speak and I'll be done with it. I don't know all the circumstances, but I know it is a possibility and even then it shouldn't be. I just want to end today. I'm tired, worn out, and mad at myself for something I can't remember. Heat is pouring off of me and I'm shivering. I say to myself " if only...". Will things go back to how they were? I don't deserve it. I heard the hurt, the frustration, the let down in your voice. I know what should and shouldn't be said. I know what should and shouldn't be thought. I know what a jerk is. I know what I am. My head is in my hands, my teeth are grit, I have a scowl on my face, thinking. I'm thinking, "Scum bag, why did you have to go and screw that up?" Don't thinking I'm like that. I'm usually not like that. I hope you can agree. Do what you have to so I learn my lesson. I never ever want to do that again. Please forgive me for anything I've done. Good night. - JDM

Spending Time

Review:
The last couple days I've just hung around. Tuesday night, Josh and I went to the Yoder's for a bon fire and fun. Wednesday was just more hanging out and church. Thursday was Bible study, where I got to play Wii...fun fun fun. Friday, today, I painted more of the shed, weed- eated, studied bible bowl, and went to Cici's with one of my favorite families, the Collins. Had awesome fun in the arcade!
A song that I just listened to today, Spending Time, by Stellar Kart is in my mind.
