All I can say is my life is pretty plain...

One bright Sunday afternoon decorated with ice water and soul baring information; deep conversations and laughter that builds in the pit of your stomach and erupts from your mouth; kisses from two year old Marko who plants his mouth on your cheek, squeezes your neck and says goodnight later...and that brings us to today.

and today is good. not any different than yesterday really, and I reckon it's really not that different then last Monday, but you know what is new and real and completely break taking every single morning? His faithfulness.

and that, my friends, is what we must hold onto.

So, someday I may tell you kids this little story I recall as a young teenager meeting a certain celebrity on the streets of Lawrence, Kansas (Rachel, please keep it down. On the DL, please.) but for now, I'm off to class and I will leave you with a song for you to chew on:

"Years ago my heart was set to live on
And I've been tryin hard against unbelievable odds
Gets so hard at times like now to hold on
Guns they wait to be stuck by
And at my side is God

Ain't no one goin to turn me round
Ain't no one goin to turn me round

People round you tell you that they know
The places they have been, and it's easy to go
They'll zip you up and dress you down, and stand you in their role
You know you don't have to
You can just say no

And there ain't no one goin to turn me round
Ain't no one goin to turn me round
Ain't no one goin to turn me round
Ain't no one goin to turn me round

I've been built up and trusted
Broke down and busted
They'll get theirs and we'll get ours if you can just
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on

Years ago my heart was set to live on
And I've been tryin hard against unbelievable odds
Gets so hard at times like now to hold on
Gonna fall if I don't fight it
And at my side is God

Ain't no one goin to turn me round
Ain't no one goin to turn me round
Ain't no one goin to turn me round
Ain't no one goin to turn me round"
