betterthanispeak

Time is running! And i gotta move. Wasted minutes, days, and years, no more! These are my thoughts about trying to live a better life. It is one in which my own strenth and beauty bewilders me. Where the ptbo trio rock the sweetest most raddest advetures i have ever been on. One where i am realizing who i am now, and who i will be next. I dont stop searching. Neither should you. So read on, welcome to the crazy life and dreams of Melissa Sharon Russell.

i want to remeber this night....
and so i am typin it on out!

I just stood on a train bridge in a moment of complete and utter tinsy tiny-ness, and as i watch the river run rampant below i realized how little i am, how insignificant, and yet, how great, how huge, how powerful.

We have been given life. a life. ours. (unless you choice to surrender it, in which case it was yours to give away in a sense) but we need to do something with that time.

For me, those somethings i need to be doing are, essentially what i just spent my night doing,

learning
discussing life with a great friend
jumping in puddles
walking home down the middle of the street at 2am in the rain (underrated i tell you)
anaylising the way i am licing my life
trying to live for the better
loving jesus
loving others
life.

it is important for those of us who are reassured of the peace, the joy and the love of our lives in Christ to be constantly encouraing, loving and strengthening others in the midst of this crazy world.

becuase it is broken. becuase it breaks people.

becuase jesus heals, loves, and cares. He lets you weep on his infinate shoulder. he holds your face in his hands. he dries tears.

he laughs with you, he celebrates with you, he smiles through you.

we have something true.

when we share that with others, not only are we reaffirmed (which is always needed in this world ) but we help jesus give LIFE to other people.

so be crazy. keep playing and inviting others to play along.

someones got to! and i cant see myself living anyother way.

Em.
