Dreaming...

I wish coffee were free
I wish we could wear are hearts on our sleeves and appreciate each others with out being wounded
I wish all was well with the world
I wish we could build character without going through agony and suffering
I wish things weren't so complicated

All these things I wish because there's something deep down inside of me that desires that life doesn't need to be so difficult. Alas, difficulty awaits us. Maybe instead of viewing this as a noose I need to view it as my companion. With out sorrow and difficulty why would I be in need of a savior? I need Him because He is the air I breath, my sustinance.

I wish coffee was free too.

This comment isn't very deep.

I threw a shallow one in their for you. We should all sing,"Which one of these things it not like the other." It was just the stream of dialogue in my head.

Are you saying I am shallow?!?! Well I'll be darned. :)

I like the Brooke Fraser C.S. Lewis song and her line,
"If I find in myself desires nothing in this world can satisfy....I can only conclude that I was not made for here."

Ahh, yes. The one about wearing your heart on your sleeve. I feel that one with you.
