"The more I considered Christianity, the more I found that while it had established a rule and order, the chief aim of that order was to give room for good things to run wild." - G.K. Chesterton in Orthodoxy

Confession.

I have approximately 20 pairs of jeans in my closet.

Of those, I wear only about 5 pairs of them.

So you might ask, 'why dont you give away the rest of the jeans that you dont wear?'

Well, the answer is because one day I dream of living on a ranch, so I really might need those old jeans one day.

Im a dreamer, what can I say.

10 wonderful things

1. Sleeping in your own bed after you've been away.
2. When you make someone else's day.
3. Being sent mail.
4. Listening to your favorite songs on repeat
5. When you arrive just as the bus is pulling up.
6. People who just 'get' you.
7. Finding things you thought you had lost.
8. Checking the time and it's exactly '11:11'
9. Making it home just before it rains.
10. Waking up to text messages from friends.
