Short Poems from a Long Trip

On the way to Galevston for family vacation this weekend, I was inspired (or maybe just bored enough) to write some poems. Here they are.

Untitled
I have so much to do,
But instead I'll turn on a tune
And just think of you.



X-Games
A broken arm is better than a broken heart, no?
Maybe I'm taking risks in the wrong arena.
Moto-X here I come.



Freedom...

Is it life on the road?

Is it satisfying my every desire?

Is it speaking my mind?

Is it dancing wildly?

Is it making music?

NO.

It is the imprint on my wrist.

Freedom is in Christ.

AMAP

According to recent research, the "click" might be worth less than it was previous thought to be. These finding are only after a very preliminary study. The research will continue and hopefully an absolute conclusive theory will be produced.

In other news, Roadtrip '06 is getting closer and closer. And I REALLY need to buckle down and get a lot done...like planning, mapping, packing, taking care of bills and insurance stuff, etc. But every night, I choose to hang out with people instead. I just want to enjoy the next 6 weeks as much as possible (AMAP? kind of like ASAP??) and soak in all the fun times with friends. This is a season of my life in which I have amazing friends and fun things to do and I want to live in these moments...really live in them.

But I do need to practice some self discipline and get some stuff done too. All in the name of FREEDOM!!!!!!!!

This is one of my favorite post secrets. Too many people can probably relate. I don't ever want to relate. It's a scary thought.

How Much is the Click Worth?

The click.
The zsa-zsa-zsu.
The spark.
The fireworks.
You know what I'm talkin' about.
The feeling that you long to feel when you meet someone of the opposite sex.
It's that rare feeling of really connecting...
It's that feeling that you might have known this person forever...
It's the feeling that you might be looking into your future through their eyes...
It's feeling completely ALIVE when you're with them...
It's more than just common interest and attraction...
It's everything inside of you agreeing that there is something there...something big.

How much is all this worth? Is it fleeting? What if you meet someone and feel all these things...yet they don't meet your list of qualities you desire in a mate? Do you forget the click and keep waiting for someone list worthy to come along? Or do you forget the list and dive into the click?

And my final question, is it possible to have both??? It seems like a slim chance... finding that one person you completely click with AND who is completely list worthy.

Maybe my faith needs to be strengthened...
