Favorite Quote:
2 Corinthians 12:9<br /> But he said to me, &ldquo;My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness. &rdquo; Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ&rsquo;s power may rest on me.

Like time was frozen.
And puddles were the most important
thing

on your mind.
but no I can’t stand
gatherings
of water
because they no longer jump
at me
and you no longer jump
at them.
and time is no longer frozen--
just the ice before me.

&quot;Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind.&quot;
