putting off bedtime again
I was searching the 'net for some quotes I could use in my PR speech. Didn't use any in the end, but found some meaningful ones...

Miracles: You do not have to look for them. They are there, 24-7, beaming like radio waves all around you.

- Hugh Elliott, Standing Room Only weblog, May 6, 2003



You just need to open your eyes, shall I add. I like this one, because I've always believed the same thing, although I occasionally need to be reminded. This was a good time to be reminded. That I am alive and well right now is a miracle. That I breathe without having to think about it. That my heart pumps around the clock. That Jesus came for me when I didn't want Him. That I am forgiven an eternity of sin. That He loves me.

Come to think of it...the wisdom tooth hurts a lot less today. Praise God! :)


We did not change as we grew older; we just became more clearly ourselves.

- Lynn Hall, Where Have All the Tigers Gone?, 1989


Time does not change us. It just unfolds us.

- Max Frisch


The last two are rather similar, but I like the way both Hall and Frisch put it. That growing up is a process of clarification and unfolding. That I don't change, I am only growing more into me. That things will only become clearer - my place in this world, in His world. That if I seem different or look different to you today, it is only because another piece of me has been uncovered.

I'm glad he knows every piece of me and loves me still.
