That’s fine, and totally no pressure, I just wanted to make sure you’d seen it. I’ve found that the notification system isn’t entirely reliable sometimes. ;P

Yaaay for flexibility.

Oh, well that’s an encouraging thought. ;D

Huh. I wonder why I thought that.

So your life’s been crazy, eh? Mine too. Seems a generally recurring theme the older I…[Read more]

@emma-flournoy,

I wonder, could the reason that our lives keep getting busier as we get older be at all related to the fact that older people have more responsibility? Mind-blown
It’s strange, I watch my little sisters act as though the day is so long and I’m over here thinking that there isn’t enough time in the day to actually get anything…[Read more]

I know, really. O.o Such shocking revelations.

Precisely that. And in that I fervently hope and pray they relish it while they can, ’cause it sure as sartin’ ain’t gonna last forever.

That’s a great one. One I find helpful is Ecclesiastes 3:1-15.

To everything there is a season,
A time for every purpose under heaven:

2 A time to be born,
And a time to die;
A time to plant,
And a time to pluck what is planted;
3 A time to kill,
And a time to heal;
A time to break down,
And a time to build up;
4 A time to weep,
And a time to…[Read more]
