i smile :)

"Today's a new day, but there is no sunshine.

Nothing but clouds, and it's dark in my heart,

and it feels like a cold night.

Today's a new day, but tell me where are my blue skies,

where is the love and the joy that You promised me

You tell me it's alright.

 

(The truth is)

I almost gave up, but a power that I can't explain (the Holy Ghost power, yo)

fell from heaven like a shower now.

I smile, even though I hurt, see I smile,

I know God is working so I smile,

Even though I've been here for awhile,

I smile, smile..

it's so hard to look up when you've been down.

Sure would hate to see you give up now

You look so much better when you smile"

-- Kirk Franklin, "I Smile"

movies & moscato

considering that i have 3 weeks until the big day, i don't think i should be having movie marathons (watched  the "Lord of the Rings" and the Bourne trilogy) while enjoying a bottle of sweet moscato. but this weekend was an exception (thank you, Good Friday and Easter. but ultimately, thank You, God), and it will be my last weekend of merriment until the end of this month. after tonight, no more movies and no more moscato. it will be all about the G to the M to the A to the T.

... dang, i want a good score soo badly... 

thankyou

i don't think i'll be going back to fb world anytime soon. i feel more liberated and a lot happier without it. and although it's a great tool for keeping in touch with people, i personally don't feel like i'm out of reach for any of my good friends. and for these friends, i am ever so grateful for their consistent efforts in keeping in touch. thankyou :)
