Where were you when I fell from grace?
A frozen heart an empty space
Something's changed and it's in your eyes
Please don't speak you'll only lie
I found treasure not where I thought
Peace of mind can't be bought
Still I believe
Just hang on
Suffer well
Sometimes it's hard
It's hard to tell
An angel led me when I was blind
I said take me back I've changed my mind
Now I believe
From the blackest room I was torn
You called my name my love was born
So I believe
Just hang on
Suffer well
Sometimes it's hard
It's hard to tell

| Good Bible passages as of late. |
[15 Jan 2007|07:23pm] |
NIV 1 Corinthians 1:18-31
For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
19 For it is written: "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate."
20 Where is the wise man? Where is the scholar? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world?
21 For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe.
22 Jews demand miraculous signs and Greeks look for wisdom,
23 but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles,
24 but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.
25 For the foolishness of God is wiser than man's wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man's strength.
26 Brothers, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth.
27 But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong.
28 He chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things-- and the things that are not-- to nullify the things that are,
29 so that no one may boast before him.
30 It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God-- that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption.
31 Therefore, as it is written: "Let him who boasts boast in the Lord."

Faye: You're gonna take the entire world down with you... but why? That's insane.
Vincent: You think so? Is there an indelible line dividing sanity from insanity... Or do they change, one into the other at the slightest change of events? We'll find out soon enough. If the world itself is insane.
Vincent: No one can draw a clear line between sane and insane. You move that line as you see fit for yourself. No one else can. You'll understand soon... that the one that's insane is this world. Do you want to come with me? The only ones left will be you and me.

Margaret, are you grieving
Over Goldengrove unleaving?
Leaves, like the things of man, you
With your fresh thoughts care for, can you?
Ah! as the heart grows older
It will come to such sights colder
By and by, nor spare a sigh
Though worlds of wanwood leafmeal lie;
And yet you will weep and know why.
Now no matter, child, the name:
Sorrow's springs are the same.
Nor mouth had, no nor mind, expressed
What héart héard of, ghóst guéssed:
It is the blight man was born for,
It is Margaret you mourn for.

Oh God, it's raining
But I'm not complaining
It's filling me up
With new life
The stars in the sky
Bring tears to my eyes
They're lighting my way
Tonight
And I haven't felt so alive
In years
Just for a day
On a day like today
I'll get away from
This constant debauchery
The wind in my hair
Makes me so aware
How good it is to live
Tonight
And I haven't felt so alive
In years
The moon
Is shining in the sky
Reminding me
Of so many other nights
But they're not like tonight
Oh God, it's raining
And I'm not containing
My pleasure at being
So wet
Here on my own
All on my own
How good it feels to be alone
Tonight
And I haven't felt so alive
In years
The moon
Is shining in the sky
Reminding me
Of so many other nights
When my eyes have been so red
I've been mistaken for dead
But not tonight

My little girl
Drive anywhere
Do what you want
I don't care
Tonight
I'm in the hands of fate
I hand myself
Over on a plate
Now
Oh little girl
There are times when I feel
I'd rather not be
The one behind the wheel
Come
Pull my strings
Watch me move
I do anything
Please
Sweet little girl
I prefer
You behind the wheel
And me the passenger
Drive
I'm yours to keep
Do what you want
I'm going cheap
Tonight
You're behind the wheel tonight
Enjoy kids.

It's in a situation like this where I must remind myself and yes, this is also one of those few situations where it is ok to think this. "Stop Thinking and Just Feel." I know I just kind of contradicted myself but thats besides the point.
On a pretty much unrelated noted, My last track race ever of high school is this saturday.
Boys 3200m run 3:40 p.m. Whetstone High School, 4405 Scenic Drive, Columbus 43215
I put this up there because as I always say. I love it when people come and watch me run. So, I always tell people when and where I am running. So, yea here it is. I hope you all come. :)

James Castrillo: A look at a glance.
3 days till the CCL meet and Prom with my favorite Lindsay Brown.
4 days till my 19th birthday.
10 days till the District meet.
11 school days left
17 days till regionals.
24 calendar days until graduation day (and the state track meet which is the main reason I am trying to skip graduation.) Yes, going and watching the state track meet is more important to me than going to my high school graduation. I don't get my diploma at the ceremony so it's pretty much pointless for me to go. I am leaving the second the ceremony ends if I have to go. Holler front.
24 calendar days till Brad gets the honorary changing of the guard from freshman to sophmore year.
36 days(possibly) till my graduation party.
26 days till week long trip with kev, garrett, and 2 Em Jew to Julie's cabin.
40 days till (also possible) trip with my family to Nicaruga. We are going somewhere and I am really hoping we go so I can meet all of my cousins.
100 days (estimated) till first day of college.
39 days till first day of summer training with the Robblers/ Big Mazungo project.
38 days till I get my Roland SH 201 synthesizer.
Getting a Job= T.B.D.
Last track race of high school=T.B.D.

You must be my lucky star
’cause you shine on me wherever you are
I just think of you and I start to glow
And I need your light
And baby you know
Chorus:
Starlight, starbright first star I see tonight
Starlight, [starbright] make everything all right
Starlight, starbright first star I see tonight
Starlight, [starbright] yeah
You must be my lucky star
’cause you make the darkness seem so far
And when I’m lost you’ll be my guide
I just turn around and you’re by my side
(chorus)
Come on shine your heavenly body tonight
’cause I know you’re gonna make everything all right
You may be my lucky star
But I’m the luckiest by far

Basically, I think this might be the one of the "dirtiest" songs ever written. It's got such a sweet beat to it. But just take a second to read the lyrics m-m-m-m-m-y Sharona.
Ooh my little pretty one, pretty one.
When you gonna give me some time, Sharona?
Ooh you make my motor run, my motor run.
Gun it comin' off the line Sharona
Never gonna stop, give it up.
Such a dirty mind. Always get it up for the touch
of the younger kind. My my my i yi woo. M M M My Sharona...
Come a little closer huh, ah will ya huh.
Close enough to look in my eyes, Sharona.
Keeping it a mystery gets to me
Running down the length of my thighs, Sharona
Never gonna stop, give it up. Such a dirty mind.
Always get it up for the touch
of the younger kind. My my my i yi woo. M M M My Sharona...
When you gonna give it to me, give it to me.
It is just a matter of time Sharona
Is it just destiny, destiny?
Or is it just a game in my mind, Sharona?
Never gonna stop, give it up.
Such a dirty mind. Always get it up for the touch
of the younger kind. My my my i yi woo. M M M My Sharona...
mmmmmmmm. nothing like getting it up for little girls. hahaha.

so basically, this has been the best day of my life for the most part.
First off, I was a little bit worried because I thought i might have another D or F in a class thus making me inelligible. As it turns out I am only failing math and the next lowest grades i have are all C+/B- so I am not eve close to bein inelligible. Phew, talk about a sign of relief.
So we had a nice easy run today and I felt good. Me, Kev, and Garrett all ran together for the first time in God knows when. Garrett's knee was hurting him really bad but TA-DA! It felt better a few minutes into the run and then completely went away. So good for him.
Then, I get home and I got like 2 pieces of mail from Otterbein. I thought it was from them saying how they need my deposit ASAP. I was wrong. I am getting $3,000 extra for being a student of color. I love my Grandfather more than life it self right now. I've been freaking out a little bit lately becuase I was going to have to take out a 2,500 dollar loan to help pay for some of my tuition. But now that I have that scholarship, I can go to college and have absolutely no loans to take out or anything I will have to pay back. God has truly blessed me on this one. I had been praying that he would help me to not worry so much about financial problems.
My total scholarships at Otterbein add up to 14,500 dollars a year or about $58,000 total. That is a rediculous amount of money. And even with all of that I still have to live at home. But because I got that extra 3,000 dollars I might be able to make enough money to live on campus my sophmore year. I was originally planning on having to wait till junior year to live somewhere. So basically I am super happy right now.
Also, I went and turned in a job application at Robek's today. So hopefully I will have a job in the next few weeks.
ahhhhhh, 19 days left of school and then i am done!!

So last night when I was praying at church I thought about how awesome the sacrifice that Jesus made for me was. I also was so greatful that I am able to know Jesus in the way that I do know him. I know I am not perfect in my relationship with him, but who is. Anyways, I began to think about how one loves Him so much that they really are "in love" with Christ. It became so overwhelming that I actually started crying in church over Christ's love for me. Let's just say that was one of the greatest things that has ever happened to me in my life. By and far. I wasn't hysterical crying like a little kid or anything but the tears were there. And afterwards I had a big smile on my face and it has made all the difference. This morning I am heading downtown for stations of the cross to remember Jesus and what he did for me the day he died.
