The documented travels, thoughts, and experiences of Melissa. Sunday, October 23, 2011. Balanced Meal of Life. An trusty indicator to the level of chaos in my life has always been how clean or dirty my room is. My room is now clean. And I have successfully relaxed all night by candlelight. Delicious. But the last few days.my room was a mess. God puts all the boggle pieces of my life together, finally spelling words that give my life meaning when before I was a little jumbled up. It's way more enjoyab...

The documented travels, thoughts, and experiences of Melissa. Sunday, June 05, 2011. Summer is Here. Now. I want to be effective in what I can influence and ineffective in what I cannot, but so often I find myself doing the opposite. I spend all my energy on trying to change something I cannot, and no energy on what I have the power to change" - Sarah D. (loosely quoted). I am struck by these words. What have I been worrying about that I shouldn't? What have I been lazy about? Where have I cut corners?

The documented travels, thoughts, and experiences of Melissa. Thursday, March 31, 2011. Dear Nephew (Baby Buns Haskins),. I do not know your name yet due to your parents' secrecy otherwise I would address this letter to you on a more personal level. I am amazed that you are coming so soon! I thought for sure it would not be until April 12th like the doctor first predicted. But no, you are coming THIS weekend! Saturday, maybe Sunday morning latest. Crazy. You must be some kind of gun-hoe kid! Bellingham, ...

The documented travels, thoughts, and experiences of Melissa. Saturday, January 30, 2010. This morning was supposed to be more productive than it actually ended up being, but its fine. I enjoyed slowly waking up with the roommates, being scared to death when I didn't realize Melissa was laying on the couch, and watching my roommates sweat to my Cardio Taebo DVD :) I worked from 1-5 at Ann Taylor, ate some din din, and watched Miss America at my neighbor's apartment. We were working on them from 9AM-12:30...

The documented travels, thoughts, and experiences of Melissa. Tuesday, October 05, 2010. Something caught my eye this morning; something, but nothing extraordinary. It was simple. It was profound. And I only found it by looking through the eyes of a fish. I had to investigate. Black Molly, tropical). The lesson was unavoidable. This little fish had found unabashed enjoyment in the simple extraordinary. It was that undignified display of carpe diem.-ing that caught my attention. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The documented travels, thoughts, and experiences of Melissa. Saturday, April 10, 2010. Amber, the co-pastor/pastor's wife at my church spoke today. She spoke on marriage and relationships. She gave a few really good points of things to be prepared for to have a healthy marriage. 2 Grow in meeting each other's needs. 3 Grow in your communication skills. 4 Grow in partnership of financial responsibilities. 5 Grow in fighting fair. But anything that glorifies ourselves above God will bring death and spirit...
