I have a theory about first meetings, first experiences, and first songs, so as for the first thought that rolls across this page let it be someone else's.
"He who thinks that he is finished is finished. How true. Those who think they have arrived, have lost their way. Those who think they have reached thier goal, have missed it. Those who think they are saints, in all reality are demons." -Henri Nouwen, The Genessee Diary.
Well its 2:01 in the afternoon and i am atteptempting to create this site for those of us who have more to talk about than what our favorite scene band is, or their favorite color is. instead i want to hear about real life, about real passions and dreams, and what God or life has taught you along this journey (which can be argued as such). So write what you may, but write what you feel, write who you are and not who you want others to perseve you as. life is to short to live as two people. on that note i leave you with this
"No one for any considerable period of time, can wear one face to himself and another to the multitude without finally getting bewildered as to which may be the truth."
SO WHICH IS IT? LIFE IS A...
JOURNEY, DESTINATION, GOAL, CHALLENGE, BITCH, GODSEND, HEARTACHE, ETC. (and why?)

Love is real
words are creation
music is worship
Life is incomplete without Jesus.
I had your dream, to sing for myself. But that was all changed, by the voice of God. There is nothing worth worshiping than Him. There is nothing worth living for but Him. Find love, find love. He's all consuming, even when you're running.
this life is about faith I think,
as God continues to work in my life, I find that He seems to change my inward circumstances and problems before the physical or even the emotional ones.
Like, when you pray so hard for someone to change, and God ends up changing you instead. And its almost like He leaves nothing sacred, Relationships,People,Health etc etc. Life will either leave you loathing or loving the prospect of eternity.
Because in the end, this life is just the launching point.
I've had major depression for many years now. I thought it was getting better, but then it started to go down hill, beginning the thoughts of suicide, followed by cutting, hurting, pain. I have such a life story I would love to tell you. I'm considering to write a book on it, on my whole journey of depression, and how everyday for me is a struggle. I want to be real. I don't want to be fake. But it seems as if when I am real, it backfires, and hits me right in the face. *SMACK!* I've had trouble with friends this way. I guess I've told them too much, and I scared them or something.
I hope one day I can lay out everything, and just tell you the truth.

So I think you enjoy the ride, be the best person you can be until we are all together with him again.
thing far to wasted. so live it, and live it well.
An enigmatic question. Obviously, life is seen by most people as a bit of each, so who can argue one thing against the other?
But I think like life is good. Perhaps particulars aren't... but as a whole, I'm glad that this bitch of a Godsend is here.
Consider this: we know
God = Life
thus:
Life = God.
God = Good
Therefore,
Life = Good.
However,
God = bitch... doesn't work so well.
so I'm not entirely positive what the whole meaning of life is, but at the moment I think it's a journey, one that I can only hope will turn out well in the end.
:)
I also think that if you invite jesus into your heart, your path in life will be clearer.
Life is amazing, and I feel I need to get out into the world and put my footprint on it. I want to make an impression; make people happy.
Life is about seeing how God throws turbulence into our lives, then later seeing how he knows it will better us in the long run.
Faith and love, that's what it should be about.
In answer to the question asked:
Life is many things. I cannot really be pinpointed as one thing. Life is beautiful but sometimes ugly. It's hard but simple. It's full of disease and war and inhumanities. But at the same time full of life and peace and kind heartedness. I'd say that alot of things are relative. No excessively so, there ARE absolutes. But life is what the person living it percieves it to be. To me, life without Christ is empty. It's unfulfilling. God makes it full and exciting! There is no one I would rather live for.

And a response to it from a hero of mine..
"It's a journey indeed...but maybe I'm still looking for home, not there yet, not looking back, still got ground to cover..." -Jon Foreman
Life is a journey to home. And to be a little more original (or less. Beats me which) To live is to love, and to love is to be alive.
