hug

I read about how you touched them and they were healed
Or even if someone just touched your cloak they were forever changed
You let a broken women bathe your feet in her tears
And you washed your best friend’s feet
I am just wondering though did you just ever hug people

I mean I know that it is a silly question and all I am sure you would have why wouldn’t you
But its one of those things that was never mentioned that got me thinking about it

And how whenever there was a touch from you sins were forgiven and sickness fell
I think I’m caught up in my sins last time I checked all my body parts were properly working, nothing special here
I am just a kid with a heavy heart these passing sunrises and sunsets

I don’t think our encounter would have ended up in the gospels or anything
Because all I really need is a hug 
That is ok for me to imagine right
That’s not going to be conflicting with any sort of theology is it
Ok good, then hug me

But not one of these side ways one arm around the neck type hugs
Or the ghetto right hand clasp fists elbows to chest pit pat on the back back
Or you put your right arm over my right arm and I put my left arm over your left arm and we make this weird sort of diagonal thing
Nah none of those

BEAR HUG ME MAN
Take your old school carpenter arms and throw them over my upper body leaving my arms dangling underneath yours somewhere and I can barely move them because your squeezing so hard
But don’t pick me up and make my back pop because I hate it when people do that

And hold me, hold me here in your arms until I start to cry because 
I WANT TO CRY
But I just can’t seem to do it on my own 
I have been teary eyed once recently but not even enough for a drip down my cheek
Theres just hurt in my soul that needs to be purged so hold me in this hold pose until the pain is flowing from my eyes and nose

my wisdom teeth are growing in.... suckfest.
this weekend im going to hang out with my cousins!
hazy by Rosi Golan.. check it out.
i hung out in ikea for like 4 hours. did you know you can eat there? .. truth. 
i couldnt sleep last night.. there was an INTRUDER alert on our campus. he was right out side of my window, i just KNOW it. 
i no longer pay attention in any of my classes... im so ready to be summering that i can only draw pictures of my professors.
someone gave a plant... that was a first that i was so excited about. 
i am applying to hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry. 
randall just OWNED my teacher. i want to HIGH FIVE him.

its been so long. how are things? good.
so much has happened... im spending my summer in the city of brotherly love. 
not at all a lie.  lets see what else...
ok, i tried cherry dr. pepper yesterday for the first time ever. you need to take my advice and listen to me when i say go buy some immediately and taste it. it deserves a round of applause.  im going to miss so many things this summer, and its hitting me hard this week that i only have 2 more weeks to enjoy them. heres my list of things to miss: 
1. my friends and cousin (dont be offended, im talking about you. you are not left out of this category.) 
2. the tree house.
2. life church. ... both tied for second.
3. LCC band. friday nights... band practice.
4. lounge parties... juno and learning about new things.. yikes.
5. chapel.
6. adventures in boston. the T
7. rockbanding with escaping athens.
8. storytime... "we NEED to talk."
9. recruitment monday and fridays with pablo and mercy
10. slush puppies

ok, so there it is. im crying. just kidding, but im pretty dang close. 
im excited about this summer though.. God is going to do amazing things!! I am interning at first family church in philly.. and i am stoked. i cant wait to see kids saved, and passion ignited. I keep thinking about the disciples and all that they did. I got scared because I have so much responsibility this summer and so much expected of me... making me feel extremely inadequate. extremely. Jesus told the disciples to simply "follow me". thats all. he didnt throw numbers in their faces or tell themto be a great leader or speaker, or to reach teenagers.... he simply said to follow him. this makes me feel a thousand times better. sigh of RELIEF!! 

Thank you Jesus for making things so much more simple than i make them out to be.
All that we have to do is be willing, and follow you. Here I am... use me.

adventures to nowhere.

can some one please take me to a HUGE OBNOXIOUS SUNFLOWER FIELD. thanks.











speaking of obnoxious.. my humanities class defines that word. it is aggressively obnoxious.why do i feel so inadequate in this class? oh, the  answer to that question is: bruce. he makes me feel that way. the door to his classroom is actually a porthole into another world. a world that somehow mysteriously and magically makes every student turn into stupid little kindergardeners that dont understand a word that comes out o his mouth. i am writing the second paper, and it is a curse word. the first paper that i had to write in this alternate universe world was more like .. just a bad word, or a racial slur.. but this second paper.. a full out offensive CURSEword


You see.. this whole situation is kindof like.. getting a new bike that for christmas! You take the bike out for your very first RIDE and within the first 4minutes, you wipe out.... your knees-elbows (yes all four them) and palms all scraped, bleeding, and hurting unlike anything that you have every felt before. yes.... it is that bad. you decide to never ever again ride your new bike. As a matter of fact, you ask your mom to sell the bike in the next family yard sale.. so you can buy something safe and fun.... like pokemon cards, or lisa frank folders.  scraping your palms is one of thee most painful things that can happen to you. 

but... once it is over, i get to hang out with the CREW.. and watch harry potter. i think maybe the prisoner of askaban. or maybe the chamber of secrets (which just so happens to be my fav)
