I wouldn’t be who I am if it weren’t because of you mom.
This made my day! :D
Hi everyone, meet Carl. He’s my best friend :)
This is one of my most favorite pictures of the two of us, and it’s got a lot of meaning, which is why I’m sharing it with you.
A lot of changes have been happening in my life recently since I graduated, and a I’ve had to adjust to a lot of things. I’ve also experienced a lot of significant things lately, that haven’t been the easiest, but have all been for my growth. Through all of these changes (and the emotional roller coasters that come with it), Carl’s really been there for me. I’m not the most patient person, but he’s been very patient with me. I’ve learned I’m not the most physically well person, but he’s taken good care of me. He’s been my number one supporter and encourager as I continue to pursue my love for dance, and through all the transitioning into maturity and adulthood that’s been going on, he’s assured me that he’s always there.
So I want to thank you, Carl. Thank you for having my back. Literally :D I’m always going to have yours too. >:D<
Thought of You by Ryan J Woodward
Delay is Not Denial
(got this from my dad (: )
Read the lessons of Divine control in Nature’s laws. Nature is but the expression of Eternal Thought in Time. Study the outward form - grasp the Eternal Thought, and if you can read the thoughts of the Father, then indeed you know Him. Leave Me out of nothing. Love all My ways with you. Know indeed that “All is well.” Delay is but the wonderful and all-loving restraint of your Father - not reluctance, not desire to deny - but the Divine control of a Father who can scarcely brook the delay. Delay has to be - sometimes. Your lives are so linked up with those of others, so bound by circumstances that to let your desire have instant fulfillment might in many cases cause another, as earnest prayer, to go unanswered. But think for a moment of the Love and thoughtful care that seek to harmonize and reconcile all your desires and longings and prayers. Delay is not denial - not even withholding. It is the opportunity for God to work out your problems and accomplish your desires in the most wonderful way possible for you. Oh! children, trust Me. Remember that your Maker is also your Servant, quick to fulfill, quick to achieve, faithful in accomplishment. Yes. All is well. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. Isaiah 55:9
