At the end of the day, when I am lying in bed and I know the chances of any of our theology being exactly right are a million to one, I need to know that God has figured it out, that if my math is wrong we are still going to be okay. And wonder is that feeling we get when we let go of our silly answers, our mapped out rules that we want God to follow. I don't think there is any better worship than wonder. | Donald Miller

"I am a forest, and a night of dark trees:
but he who is not afraid of my darkness,
will find my banks full of roses under my cypresses."

"Don't you get it? She's the
house! She's the plain white
shutters, the sparkling glass
windows, and the perfect white
picket fence. She's the ordinary
stuff. But you...you're the red
door. And when people come
by, yeah, sure they see the
house. But for some reason, they
always end up looking at the
door. It's always in the corner of
their eye. You can't ignore a red
door. And the house is nice, hell,
the house is perfect. But then
there's that door. It's almost
painful to look at. You're the
door."

"I know
you and I
are not about poems or
other sentimental bullshit
but I have to tell you
even the way
you drink your coffee
knocks me the fuck out."

"I think we all speak a different kind of language than each other, but you sound a whole lot like coffee on a Sunday morning and the rain is falling bitter against the windowpane and your elbows are making holes in the countertops, and I only want to tell you that I wish I was as close as the threads of your t-shirt, and if I can't be that, then I'll be content with drinking my drink beside you, with the rain sloppy open mouth kissing the roof, trying to dismantle the etymology of a conversation that falls out of the realm of words."

"Do you want me to tell you something really subversive? Love is everything it's cracked up to be. That's why people are so cynical about it. It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don't risk anything, you risk everything."
Erica Jong
if you don't risk anything, you risk everything... i can't stop thinking about this notion.

let it be Fall.
"That country where it is always turning late in the year. That country where the hills are fog and the rivers are mist; where noons go quickly, dusks and twilights linger, and midnights stay...That country whose people are autumn people, thinking only autumn thoughts. Whose people passing at night on the empty walks sound like rain."
Ray Bradbury
