carry me far away
to a quiet place
where I can just sit
and rest my weary soul

| Hmm, what to write about. . . .
I really, really like xanga!  I always forget how much, until I revisit it.
goodness! Slovakia this summer was really, really amazing, and wonderful for me! so much happened to my heart there, and I grew so much! it was really hard to be there right at first, but God helped me through all the hard times. and He blessed me with amazing new friends, and experiences, and beauty!
sometimes the longing to go back, and have that time over again is so strong! but all I can do is cherish the memory, and try to be contented with where I am now. at home, with my family.  *sigh* I am glad to be home! I just get a feeling of homesickness when I think about that place, and those people!
I can't wait to go back!
umm, um, um. . .(you have to read that like it was a little hum, not at all like the "derr" kind of "umm") I've been painting a little recently! I finished up a birthday present I was painting for Leslie-Pie.  it turned out very nicely, I think! maybe I'll put a picture of it up sometime. I also started a tiny painting of a cross, but I can't get it right! I need to mess with it more.
I've also been experimenting with. . .I suppose you would call it "clip art"? (I don't know really what "clip art" is exactly, but I always got the impression it was something very specific) but anyways I cut out some parts I liked, from this really stupid picture, and I stuck some of them in other half drawn pictures, and it looks so cool! I have a picture of a faceless fairy, with amazing wings that stand off the page! and another one with a little dead tree, and a little stady-upy telescope that's looking out into the depths of space! I just made them sound way cooler than they are, but you get the idea.  I'm having fun with it!
I also re-organized all of my beading stuff! now, I can FIND things in that mass collection of supply's! you may not be that thrilled about it, but I certainly am!
I'm writing to an imaginary little person, with a strange little mind, and it's getting fun! he looks rather green-ish blue, and he has a cool hat, and he's very wise, and very short! I don't know if he has any facial hair.(if you're picturing Yoda, then stop! he's way cooler then Yoda!) I just now realized that I write to him in my journal sometimes too! hmm. he puts up with listening to girly new's very well! he must have had daughters. . .
hehehe!! the only reason I'm being so random right now, is because I know there aren't any more people on xanga that I don't mind being random around.

| Sleep my little child, and rest in me. . . ![GirlGreaaFairies_HJacobs[1]](http://x63.xanga.com/b70c8544c5d31234024271/z184720893.jpg)
I hear the Savior say,
“Thy strength indeed is small;
Child of weakness, watch and pray,
Find in Me thine all in all.” |

| Oh, what peace we often forfeit,
Oh, what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer! ![rackhammaidmaleen1[1]](http://x97.xanga.com/61ac8146c5d31234024270/z184720892.jpg)
