When I Look Back, I Wanna Be Able To Say....

I'm especially happy at this very moment because the smell of evergreen is filling my living room, Nickle Creek is serenading me, my pup is snuggled up next to me, and my dad is snoring away in his chair. Home is good to me right now. I foresee this break being good for me. Nothing to worry about, only fun to be had.

Life is good. We have a tendency to take things way too seriously. I might know this better than some. So I guess my goal this Christmas is to simplify my thoughts and actions. I wanna take people's word exactly the way they tell it to me, I wanna stop analyzing everything, and I wanna be exactly who I was made to be. I just wanna enjoy the simple things like the smell of a Christmas tree, or the sound of a banjo, or just sitting with my parents watching tv (even though they're both already asleep). I wanna experience Jesus in a new way. I think it'll be alot simpler than I've been making it. Just me and Him. My validation is in Him alone.

When I look back, I wanna be able to say that I never took a single thing for granted and that I found myself.
