They are telling in the sense that they tell what is perhaps the central paradox of our condition - that <b>what we hunger for perhaps more than anything else is to be known in our full humanness, and yet that is often just what we also fear more than anything else</b>.” - Frederick BuechnerDay-nick-uhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09447492498076616281noreply@blogger.comBlogger8491100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3642854.post-24163172983867110522012-02-09T12:47:00.002-06:002012-02-09T12:52:02.150-06:00

Several years back I posted this, and it has been on my mind a lot lately.Then last night at church we went over this very passage.(It always creeps me out when that happens.)One of my goals for 2012, was to really work on my prayer life. Lately it seems like God is giving me lots of opportunity to do this, and sometimes I get discouraged. As a kid when we had bad storms that drove us into the

My 101 has only 50 days left! Can you believe it? Seems like only yesterday I was on vacation in Nashville (living in Austin) coming up with tasks.Below are some tasks I have completed recently:13. Get a Y Membership. For the record, I got mine in mid-December, not as a new years resolution thing. I could do a whole post on how great and humiliating this has been so far. Maybe one day...19.

Today is January 9th.I'm up in DC (in the snow!) awaiting my first day of my new project. Tomorrow I'll meet the team, meet the client and begin the madness.We're already 9 days into 2012. It's official: Christmas vacation is over.Aside from this I don't have many resolutions. A few goals here and there... working on the 101 (progress post to come), working harder/smarter at work and in life,

"Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end."2011 was definitely full of adventure, and I am kinda sad to see it go.I started my first project at my new job.I took a road trip alone to stand in 17 feet of snow on the edge of crater lake.I walked the Golden Gate Bridge, rode the trolley and went to H&M far too many times in San Fransisco with Heather.I rocked out mardi gras like a

Trips I want to take1. Fly to Jackson Hole, stay at a lodge and explore the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone National Park. Hike through the parks, go fly fishing, take a whitewater rafting trip and go horseback riding through the country. Eat bison burgers and soak in a hot tub under the stars at night. Yes, please.2. Visit Costa Rica and go zip lining through the rainforest. Stay in a treehouse.

In the midst of celebrating with numerous friends and family members who are/have been planning engagements and weddings recently, there has also been mourning. Mourning with other friends. Friends who have been left, friends who's marriages have fallen apart. Friends who are alone.

Ahh summer: the special time where one can spend their days at the lake, or laying by the pool, or perusing the farmers market for the ingredients for your soon-to-be-grilled dinner. The time when you can spend your nights on the roof under stars, camping in the backyard, or driving with the windows down listening to Coldplay till the sun comes up. Or maybe that’s just me =) Now that the

Because today I teared up at Belmont's graduation.I didn't even tear up at MY OWN graduation.But there I was, getting all sentimental.I went to celebrate my friend Heather who received her MASTERS today (hell yeah. get it girl)! Needless to say, I am incredibly proud of her. She is one of few friends to have achieved this goal, and I am slightly jealous! Going back to school while working

Good Friday / He is Risen! The older I get, the more I love Easter.Mom turns 54 in style.I was in town for my mom's birthday, so I took her out to brunch (my favorite meal) at a fancy little French bistro. It was unbelievably tasty. We ate, and talked about Europe and how we hope to take a trip there together sometime next year. It was nice. Good times celebrating an amazing woman.Osama was

This weekend is marathon weekend for just about everyone I know. Both Nashville and OKC have marathons this weekend, and one of my co-workers is doing a 50 mile race tomorrow (please don't die!!!).Best of luck to all you runners out there.If worst comes to worst, remember: If I, the girl who was mercilessly teased growing up for the way she runs, can run an entire half marathon without walking,

For not being a flight attendant, I fly quite a bit; roughly 20 flights a month since January actually. I’ve come to enjoy flying less and less as I’ve grown older. I had thought that I might become a calm flier with my travel becoming more and more frequent, but that hasn’t happened yet.

Today I did not want to get up and finish the work that I failed to do on Friday. I was about to complain, but then I remembered how blessed I am to have this opportunity, even though others chalk it up to luck. And then I thought about that song, "timing is everything" and the line that says, when the stars line upand you catch a good breakand people think your luckybut you know it's graceit

It started with my cousin Luke trying to convince me to get a tattoo. I mentioned my hesitation with not knowing how my body would deal with a tattoo 10 years down the road. Without missing a beat he retorted,"It's like marriage, you're never going to be certain, you just have to jump in and do it... you're too busy worrying what you'll think on down the road.

I had a very romantic day yesterday when I drove my cousin Luke to see the Pacific Ocean for the first time.We ran on the beach, danced in the rain, drove the 101, sipped coffee and ate some of the best clam chowder I have ever had from a beachside cafe in oceanside portland. It was pretty awesome. I've always thought it would be cool to take someone on a mystery date, drive them to the

Oh Ms. McBeal.. I've never seen your show, but I guess I'll agree with you on this one. (ps. eat a steak, please!)Confession: I have a goal-setting problem... and not in the normal sense. My problem is that setting goals comes easliy for me. I set a lot of goals and I set them often and, not to brag, but, roughly 92.14% of the time I accomplish whatever goals I set.

“ Most of us think of waiting as something very passive, a hopeless state determined by events totally out of our hands… . But there is none of this passivity in scripture. Those who are waiting are waiting very actively. They know that what they are waiting for is growing from the ground on which they are standing. That’s the secret. The secret of waiting is the faith that the seed has been

So today is a big day. (insert excited/nervous face here)In a couple hours I'll head off to Chicago to begin training for the new job.I'm still amazed at how quickly and flawlessly this job came together. So much so that I can feel myself getting nervous, waiting for the other shoe to fall.And for the record, I hate this "prepare for the worst just in case" mentality that I seem to fall into.

October was a bit of a rough month for reasons I won't get into now. Suffice it to say, it wasn't the greatest month ever. Nor was it the worst... but alas it's November now.. Hooray!!!I quit twitter. I wasn't really using it, and it was just one more thing to keep up with.. so for now I'm a twitter quitter. =/I saw Sara Bareillis play at the Ryman and it was really good.

"If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.... But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere." James 1:5, 3:17"...the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. That

So I should have been posting pictures all this time, but you know how life goes. Now most of the photos I have of first few completed tasks are in books and albums and I don't have any digital copies of them. =/ But here are some pictures from my more recent completions!#65 Start "Travel Gal" or "Fivenewthingz" blogI actually started this back in May, but never really mentioned it (cause I

There's this speech going around on Facebook from an abortion survivor. I finally watched it the other day. The entire speech is amazing, but the part that stood out to me the most was toward the end where she stops and speaks directly to men and women.Seriously, it gave me chills. It made me want to take all my guy friends out for lunch just so I could encourage them and say, "Have courage.

I can count on 2 fingers the number of times I've had to lay down on the bathroom floor. (gross)This morning at 5am was one of them.Thankfully my fever broke and now 3 hours later I feel fine, aside from wanting gatorade and applesauce (I see a Kroger trip in my future.. why don't I keep these things in stock?). Unfortunately I had called in to work during the throws of sickness, and they filled

Reading through the Bible the other day I was reminded that Paul is quite an interesting fellow.Sure, he gave us great texts about grace and justification and the fruits of the spirit, and freedom and love... absolutely!But then he also comes out with stuff like Galatians 5:12:"As for those agitators, I wish they would go the whole way and emasculate themselves!"People never seem to choose verses

A girl I knew in college now writes a blog that casually chronicles her married life (congrats on 4 yrs by the way!)... the following post of hers made me laugh. Couldn't help but share. Reminds me of so many other friends from back home, so I know some of you will appreciate this!Oh and PS. #17, #52, #67, and #74: done, done, done and done. =)A Triumph in Effective Marital Conversation WIFE

Sometimes in life I keep a mental running list of things that I feel are internet worthy. Of that list maybe 2% of them ever actually appear in my published content. Lately I've had lots of random "potentially-internet-worthy" posts running through my brain, and basically I've been using/saving them for real-life conversations, (or mentioning it in passing on 5NT) but today I've written up a

I only slipped a couple times, and none of them involved social media... so we're counting that as a win.But it's over. Cue the dance party.And I don't know why the comment section is screwed up.. I'll work on it.At least 2 more tasks will go down this week. What could they be?Oooo, ahhh, mystery.

Ok...If I were conducting a social experiment I could definitely prove to you that a person can go weeks, months, sometimes years without seeing some people and never hear anything of it... however if you disappear from FACEBOOK, you will undoubtedly have a reaction within the hour.Apparently I have some explaining to do.That said, everyone exhale.... as I take a short break from my mission to

And by half done I mean time wise, sadly, and not task wise.. though I am on my way. For those keeping track here's the list: the bold tasks have been completed... I'm currently sitting with 25 completed tasks...(that's roughly 1/4th for the math shy among us) Hoorah!Maybe some pics of completed tasks coming soon? We'll see...

Thought I'd take a moment to brag on my awesome mom.Last summer while I was working in Africa distributing grants with a firm based out of DC, fate would have it that both of my parents would not only be in Africa, but in the same country, and same cities as I was.My parents church (also the church I grew up in) had started a project called "The Swaziland Partnership" and the firm I was a

Most people who know me well know that I am a terrible driver. Well, maybe not terrible, but scary.I'll admit it. I'm a scary driver. The thing is, I really hate driving with other people in my car, because the entire time I feel like they are judging my driving, and generally they are, mainly because my fear of judgement causes me to do stupid things. It's a cyclical problem.Another thing I've

So I was listening through some graduation speeches yesterday, (side note: I love graduation speeches, and THIS ONE, may very well be my all-time fave) and it dawned on me that I have been out of school now for 4 years. Four years! Where did the time go? I like to think that I've learned some things, or perhaps, reinforced some ideology, in my short time away from academia..That being said, if I

On Wednesday I spent the day ripping peoples' homes apart. I watched a woman enter her home for the first time since the waters filled it with a foot and a half of water. We helped as she went through the entire downstairs to pick the 3 or 4 things which were salvageable. That afternoon I worked with 8 other people for 2 hours ripping up another downstairs of a home that held about 2 feet of

The past few days have been nothing if not momentous. With the help of some friends I'll try to relay what I can.If you live outside of Nashville, you may not be aware, but our city was hit by a 500-year flood over the last few days. The national news coverage gave us 15 minutes, but went back to focusing on a failed car bomb and an oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. While both are clearly
