Still Loving: Jesus, living in Nashville, and my car (all of them are more amazing and awesome than HDTV!!)

Still Not: liking math

Still Glad: I stepped off the high dive. Life is hard, but so good.

Still Enjoying: my couch (yes, I’m a not-so-closet couch potato; I love my couch!)

Still Doing:  the next right thing, and the next right thing… one step at a time, one day at a time, as God gives me insight.

Still Proud: to be my parent’s daughter; and of my friends, and who they are becoming

Still Amazed: that Life could be this incredibly good.

Still Hoping: that my future will be better than my past

Still Grateful: for everything God has given me — it’s massive!

Still Wanting: to lose the weight I gained the two years I was on anti-depressants

Still Trying: to be polite and kind to the obnoxious people in my life

Still Failing: to not run away and isolate sometimes, when things get hard and the feelings become overwhelming

Still Passionate About: international travel and learning about new cultures; I really, really, really miss traveling overseas!

Still Taking up new things: to worry about. I learned to worry from my mom and haven’t been able to break the habit yet. But I’m hopeful.

Still Dating: myself… every stinkin’ time I open my mouth.

Still Have Not: learned to rock-climb, which I’ve been wanting to do since I moved to Nashville, lo these three years ago.

Still Working: yep. That’s about it. Haven’t become independently wealthy yet. When I do you’ll be the.. well, third or fourth to know.

Still Reading: The Harry Potter series, and about four other books I can’t seem to find the time to finish.

Still Thinking: Our country is in deep doo-doo, but, still, we will survive. It won’t be pretty or pleasant, but we’ll make it through.

Still Wondering: why God created cockroaches. I mean, really, what purpose do they serve, other than grossing me out? — Or are they a product of The Fall? Along with sin we got cockroaches… lovely.

Still Dressing: myself. That’s a good thing… right?

Still To Do: homework-homework-homework

Still Cherishing: my amazing sister, my wonderful friends, and my Beloved Jesus

Still Trying to Never: give up, or give in to fear.

Still Will Aways: Be utterly amazed at God’s unfailing love, unending grace, and unbelievable power — all given to me of all people (!!) as free love-gifts. Talk about the ultimate Valentine’s present!

Still, Still: I need to just be still before God and listen. I don’t spend near enough time just being quiet and still before Him. But those times when I do I realize I need to do that more. I feel more refreshed and ready to take on the (rest of the) day. Yet I still too often forgo that time in favor of sleeping a little later, reading a book, watching television or doing homework.

"Be still, and know that I am God;
       I will be exalted among the nations,
       I will be exalted in the earth."
    Psalm 46:10
