if love's a fire, then our desire is to burn untamed

tuesdays tune
josh garrels - million miles

it's been far to long since 'tuesdays tunes' has been published so i thought i would bring it back with a bang. his voice is heavenly. turn it up loud and enjoy your gloomy day (that is if you are where i am).

a must read for females young and old.

sisterhood everlasting, a story of change, long lasting friendship, challenges, laughter, hard times, tears, new experiences, tragic loss and unconditional love.

'sisterhood everlasting' is the fifth and last book in the 'sisterhood of the traveling pants' series. it was a book that captured my attention and enabled me to function as i couldn't stop reading it. it's one of those books that you can't wait to find out what happens, but you savor every word as you don't want it to end.

while reading the book you are drawn in and become part of the sisterhood along with Tibby, Lena, Bridget and Carmen. you will find yourself rooting for them in times of excitement and grieving for them as they face life's hardest moments.

it's a book that is guaranteeing to bring a time of reflection on your own life and your relationships. be prepared to be challenged to reevaluate what you hold most dear to your heart.

though it is in a series of books it's not the kind of series that you must read all the books to fully understand what is going on. sure, it helps a bit with character development to read all the books, but i guess what i am saying is 'well i haven't read any of the other books' isn't a good enough excuse. if you are a female, you should read this book.

just a little reminder...

moving forward

the hardest part of moving on

is letting go

and finding the courage

to forgive

to regret

to love

to hurt

to hope

to feel

to rebuild

to trust

to LIVE.

it's crazy that a person, who in the grand scheme of things you've had very little interaction with, can flip your world upside-down, steal a part of your heart and leave you changed forever.

sometimes the thought of it all leaves you excited with butterflies in your stomach. sometimes it makes you feel sick with questions, frustrated, and wondering if you will ever forget about that person.

i can't stop watching this movie trailer. i anxiously await august 19th to arrive so i can be first in line to see this movie. maybe because part of me can relate to it.

are we gonna do this or not?

"I lay my 'whys?' before Your cross in worship kneeling, my mind beyond all hope, my heart beyond all feeling; and worshiping, realize that I, in knowing You, don't need a 'why?'"
