| In an Artist's Studio
One face looks out from all his canvases,One selfsame figure sits or walks or leans:We found her hidden just behind those screens, That mirror gave back all her loveliness. A queen in opal or in ruby dress, A nameless girl in freshest summer-greeens,A saint, an angel -every canvas means The same one meaning, neither more no less. He feeds upon her face by day and night, Abd she with true kind eyes looks back on him, Fair as moon and joyful as the light: Not wan with waiting, not with sorrow dim; No as she is, but was when hope shone bright; Not as she is, but as she fills his dream
Christina Rossetti

| I hate not knowing what to do. I hate being conflicted over a dicision that will effect the rest of my life. Sometimes it's so hard to do the right thing because sometimes I just can't seem to decidide what the right thing is. Then if I do finally make up my mind I spend the rest of my life worrieing that it was wrong. I know I've made wrong decisions before and some of them I was able to fix and get back what I lost but others I can't. All I want is for the people who are important to me to be happy. I would sacrafice anything for them even my own happiness. But what do you do when you don't know if what you think will be best for them will truly be or not? How do you make a decision that will effect your life and theirs deeply if your not sure? I had to make one of those decisions yesturday and I can only pray I decided right. |

| I just saw "The Passion of the Christ" Saturday night with abunch of my friends and I know it's been getting bad reviews but I thought it was the best movie ever made. I think everyone whether your really religeous or not should go see it. It really makes you see things totally different. After the sadness of the movie dies down you feel much happier. I'll definately see it again. just don't go see it by yourself for the first time you need someone to cry with. |

| I just want to ba able to have one day where everything is the way I want it. I don't want anyone else trieing to convince me things would be better a different way or giving me their input on it. Just one day where we could get away. On this day I don't want to have to invite people that I don't really want there just because I feel like i have to. I only want the people there who mean something to me because this is a very meaningful day. I don't want family members that we aren't close to or feel uncomfterble around. i don;t want friends who are more like people you know. I need one day where it's just us and afew people we care about. By the way if anyone was wondering what I'm talking about it's my wedding. I'm getteing married next summer and I already know it's not going to be the wedding I want but the wedding that everyone else wants. |
