Norah Jones, I think she's got it...





Happy election, everyone.Bear with the election, everyone. May the best man win. Never mind that this is pretty unlikely, seeing as neither of our well-publicized choices are, in fact the "best man". By far.

I'll be humming this tune for the next week or so. Or month. Or four years. >.-cass

Through good times and bad...

    Yet another example of "How in the world did this person achieve fame?" And more to the point, "Once he achieved fame, how did he manage to keep it?????"

An exclamation:

Praise be to God! He forgets our wickedness once we have confessed it!
Heb 8:12; 10:17

Now what I need to do is forget them myself. Forget them just enough to not be discouraged, but not so much that I fall back into them. Therin lies the rub. :\

a long awaited change.

It's a wonderful thing to be able to say you are stronger today then you have ever been. Today I can say just that and, better yet, actually mean it. There's no point in blogging about the past few monthsat all; I consider them a waste of time. They have basically consisted of low points, selfishness and depravites. For all intents and purposes, they are weeks and weeks that i'll never get back, never be able to redeem.

Could I even go so far as to say that most of my life has been a waste? Possibly. Though I may be wiser because of where I've been, each day I've spent serving my selfish depravities is a day God could've used my one talent I'd so carefully hidden in the dirt.

Waste. Vanity. Lost forever.

Now, on undoubtably the strongest day I have yet experienced in my short life, I am resolved to waste no more time, but Use each day for what it was designed for. Now that it's taken me so long to understand it, I finally know one thing for sure: All that matters right now is today. How will I treat others? What will I do in front of those of the world? How will I represent my God?

May you never waste a day,
May you all be strong in the LORD,
I love you all,

Cassandra

    I love you so much. We need to sit and have a coze while my kids are gone. I miss spending time with you. You are such a blessing to me.

    You have piqued my curiosity. I must say that I detected no difference in you when you were sitting at my computer during the cooking class craziness. So, this epiphany was entirely internal, which doesn't in any way diminish its import. Can you share what precipitated it?

    My dear, please know that I love you very much, and although seeing you cry causes me pain, I am proud of you for it.

    Hi dear Cassandra. Think about this thought: "no day/time is wasted if growth comes from it." If we are never in the valleys, we can not recognize the peaks. I have been reading James today and looking at the "law of liberty" - it applies to all of us, including self. Look at those words in chapters 1 and 2 and remember that you are growing because you are determined to do so as you honor your Lord. love you dear Cassandra.
