Life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.
Yoda: Dark Rendezvous
"But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."

"You come from the Lord Adam and the Lady Eve", said Aslan. "And that is both honour enough to erect the head of the poorest beggar, and shame enough to bow the shoulders of the greatest emperor on earth; be content."
I always like the way President Obama looks at Michelle when she isn't paying attention.
"Turn, and look in the mirror. What do you see?" Her own brown eyes stared back at her until she was nothing but a blur.
"I see you. Red lipstick spread perfectly over your lush mouth, brown eyes that hold centuries upon centuries of secrets. A face made to entice even the most celibate of men and women alike. A red dress that sways and moves with your body, making you a temptation like no other."
I went shopping and picked up (after aprox the 7th trip to the dressing room) a pair of denim shorts just above my knee that fit perfect! Snug and perfect for work. Then found the capri version on-line and ordered those as well. I can get rid of my 2 sizes too big capris. Goodbye Felicia!
I am so lucky to be in a relationship with my best friend. I know that sounds cheesy and cliche, but that's seriously how I feel. We can talk to each other about anything and we actually love doing the same things. And even though long distance sucks, I think it's really helped the communication aspect of our relationship, because for most of the week, all we can do is talk.
This community. I was looking through my past posts in the prayer request thread, which summarized a lot of the shit I've gone through over the last three years. The people here were so helpful, like it's insane. They cared and helped me settle my nerves, even though they didn't have a personal stake in anything that was happening. Same with every other faith question, issue or request that I ever had and brought here. Just an excellent group of people. I haven't posted here consistently at all because I've been prioritizing family and friends, but I've come to the realization that if I'm going to prioritize family and friends, this site needs to be part of that. Even if it's a small part of my day, I feel so much better and happier when I spend time with the folks here.
Thanks for being awesome. And for those who don't really know me or are newer. I look forward to seeing how awesome you are.

In Days of yore,
From Britain's shore
Wolfe the dauntless hero came
And planted firm Britannia's flag
On Canada's fair domain.
Here may it wave,
Our boast, our pride
And joined in love together,
The thistle, shamrock, rose entwined,
The Maple Leaf Forever.
Its 8:06 p.m. and I am turning off my alarm and going to bed. I don't have to work tomorrow morning so I am going to sleep as long as I can, and this makes me happy. I am taking bets that I wont last past 4 a.m. but heres hoping.
