Things I Want to Write / Daydream More on Later



- Studying abroad/traveling/living in a completely different place: how places shape you, or less often, the other way around? Who is more likely to grow attached to a place, why? I think people who travel around a lot and move from place to place a lot need to be very secure people. Not to say that people who grow attached are insecure. But what kind of things and in what ways is definitely explorable. How much of our identities are based on the 'places' in our lives? How much does He say?

- Love is the bridge to His kingdom. It will last. Not what went on here, not prophecies, not gifts. What are the things that really last? How eternal of a perspective can we have? How does character fit into this? 

-I wonder how often, the most noticeable men and women of God with the most amazing faith, think back on their past, or how God's taken them where they are. If they feel vulnerable. The more we become dependent on Him, the more we realize that we can't do anything on our own... At the same time, though they probably have realized the... fragility of their abilities and vulnerability with their needs, they probably have also realized that the relationship that they have with Him is unshakable. It's their foundation. Because God will keep being God... the most powerful thing we can do is to keep a relationship. To grow deeper into a relationship. 

- I am definitely down for a meteor shower this summer.
