mel(odie)
I like pretty things as much as the next girl, but I try to take a long hard look at my priorities, make sure I'm not carried a- oh look! Butterflies!
Kidding. Now where was I?

Don’t be a baby. People don’t have to fawn over you all the time.
Snap out of it Mel. Also remember that being tired is not license to be a bitch.

keep driving, keep pushing
standing and working and driving hard. knowing that there is more to this current hour, this day, than it being the day after labour day. than it being a work day, a hard one. knowing that i work because Jesus has plans for this day and that i work for His glory.

The most beautiful
I was at Catalunya with Jav last night and it was, as always, a splendid time.
As I returned from the wash to the bar, a guest relations personnel intercepted me.
Looking deep into my eyes, the Spaniard said, “I don’t mean to be too forward, but we Spanish people are very passionate, ay? And I want to tell you that you, you are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. The most beautiful!” - to which I was visibly surprised and incredulous because I imagined it was a part of his act. Plus I hardly felt like it in a tee and pants. He saw my surprise and continued, “I mean it! The most! What is your name?”
Even though I still don’t quite believe his effusive declaration, that didn’t stop me from beaming ear to ear as I walked back to the bar.
It is so lovely sometimes, to be complimented by a random stranger.
Catalunya, very good call. ;)

Oh, Master grant that I may never seek
So much to be consoled as to console
To be understood as to understand
To be loved as to love with all my soul.Make me a channel of your peace
Where there’s despair in life, let me bring hope
Where there is darkness, only light
And where there’s sadness, ever joy.
