Guten Abend,
This week has been hectic to say the least. Kitty and I have drawn some conclusions though, which is a bonus.
1.) Being rebels for Jesus is the only way to go.
2.) We enjoy knitting, making bracelets and listening Jesus music
3.) God's word is sweet, we like it.
4.) Coffee is best consumed with Aunt Dawnie :)
This week has been enligtening and inspiring.
This is good.
God is Love,
Jessi

Home sweet house sitting
Guten Tag!
Today starts my week long journey of house sitting for a family that goes to my church. I am going grocery shopping later, I've never done that alone, for myself.
I feel old.

1 is actually not the loneliest number.
Guten Morgen,
These past few weeks have shown me that despite popular belief, one is really not the loneliest number. In fact, I have found myself enjoying solitary moments. One of my favorite things to do now a days is go downtown park at the post office, and walk around thinking, stop in at Espresso Bay get some coffee, study and do homework.
It is so rejuvenating, to sort through my thoughts and emotions, to think about the day and the events that happened.
It is refreshing to be alone, and then go back into my hectic life full of friends, family, and school and be able to give people my all.
This is good.
Life is good.

Dear, Spring....I missed you
Guten Abend,
Today, for the first time in months, I had a day where I had no obligations. A day to relax, read, nap, enjoy the sunshine. It was beautiful. I took an hour long nap in the yard of my church with two friends, I started a new book. I loved it.
This day has reminded me to not get caught up in life. As much as school, extra curriculars, job interviews and church are important, I cannot forget to live.
Now more than ever I need to relax and take in my final moments of high school life. Tomorrow starts my final trimester of high school. I am excited, but nervous (and dreading gym class).
Monday I start my internship at Munson! I am really excited :)
God is Love,

The future freaks me out
Guten Tag,
Before I went into high school I thought it was going to be the hardest thing, there would be more homework, more extra curricular things, everything was just going to be more difficult for me. I remember in 10th grade when all I wanted to do was graduate, I simply couldn't wait two more years to get out of high school.
Well, in reality my days inside of West Senior High are numbered. I have one trimester, 10 weeks of school left in high school. What has turned out to be the easiest part of my life, is coming to a close. Last night at the musical performance I sat down at looked at all of my fellow classmates, two emotions stirred inside of me. One was that my heart just overflowed with love for each of them, each one holds a unique place in my life, some keep me in line, some make me laugh, some make me think. The love is too much to really captivate using mere words. The second emotion I felt was sadness, once we graduate and spend our summer, the fall will take each of us hostage and pull us in different directions and we may not see each other again. I want to savor my moment left with them because come June 12th I am thrown out of my comfort zone. I am hopefully leaving to North Carolina. I will meet all new people, in an all new town, in a whole new state. God will bless this, he will bless us all.
I will be ready (hopefully)

Let the juices flow...
Guten Tag,
Creativity is fickle. Who is to say what is creative and what's not?
Someones view of life and what they feel is creative can differ so much from person to person.
Which leads me to say everyone is creative.
Everyone is beautiful.
Everyone is a creation, hand made by God.
Magnificent.
God is Love,
Jessi

The only thing for certain is uncertainty
Guten Abend,
I need to become more content with the way some things are. The reason I say 'some things' is because there are some things in life that will always be growing and developing. But there are also some things in life so far beyond my control that attempting to grab hold of such things would create complete and utter chaos. Yet, I always find myself striving to take those things into my own control, and I end up doing a couple things;

-making a fool out of myself
-wasting my time
-getting hurt
Some things are better left uncertain.

You've got a friend in me...
Guten Morgen,
I believe the most beautiful kind of friendship is one where you can be apart for weeks, months, even years, and you can pick up right where you left off. When you see each other again it is as if you saw each other yesterday.
This, to me, is a precious kind of friendship. It is one that knows no limits, you could be a million miles away from each other and still feel the laughter and memories of the other person.
I enjoy sharing this kind of friendship.
God is love,
Jessi

Written in the stars
Guten Tag,
Life is always hectic, between musical, school, church, family and friends, my time is well spent, but this afternoon as i sit on my porch, with the sun shining, and nothing but blue skies, i have found a fragment of time to write.
My feelings are hardly ever a priority to me, I like to take care of other people's feelings before my own will ever come to the surface.
But I do have a talent to read people's feelings and problems, but what bothers me is when I can't read someone's feelings or know what they're thinking. This is really upsetting to me, therefore I am drawn to people I cannot seem to read.
This has happened.
And it will probably get me into trouble.
God is love,
Jessi
