There are so many things we don’t understand. Normally…because we are man and we are not God. But Jesus promises to give us the understanding we need if we would ask Him. And although the “understanding” doesn’t necessarily mean the answers to our questions, it could be a the most peaceful, heartwarming comfort we could get from Him, knowing that He loves us and wants nothing more than the best.

"In Psalm 73 is David diep ontsteld oor die goddeloses wat soveel meer het as hy. Maar dan rig hy sy oë op die Vader en besef opnuut dat wat hy het, soveel kosbaarder is as aardse goed."

" Sometimes when I'm asleep, I try to wake up and I can't. Sleep has me in it's grip, and that is my dream."

The world into which we are born is brutal and cruel, and at the same time of divine beauty.

{ All Grown Up }

Sometimes it seems as though not a moment has moved, but then you look up and you're already old or you already have a household of kids or you look down and see your feet are miles and miles away form the rest of you - and you realize you've grown up.

" When dreams come true, we will hold the bricks and build our fairytale castle. Tremendous and marvelous."

{ Our House }

" The weird thing about houses is that they almost always look like nothing is happening inside of them, even though they contain most of our lives."

"I am truly grateful for the people.....
circumstances and events that are bringing joy into my life."

{ Memories }

When you get older, it feels like happy memories and sad memories are pretty much the same thing. It is all just emotions in the end. And any of it can make you weep.

{ Things Change All The Time }

At this age, everything is changing.Day by day we don’t notice,but just look back over the past year and you will realize everything has.People you thought were going to be there forever aren’t,and people you never imagined you’d be speaking to are now some of your closest friends.

Life makes little sense,and the more we grow the less sense it will make. So make the most of now,before it all changes once again,because in the near future,all of this is only going to be memories.

{ Lately.....}

I've been feeling so pressed for time lately. Working.....fetching children...homework....dinner... etc, is consuming my life lol. I consider this both a good and a bad thing. On the one hand, I'm busy busy busy, and that makes my days fly by! On the other hand, it does just that- makes my days fly by. I feel like I haven't really had the time to do the things I really want to do. Those being: spending time with Nico, going to the beach, reading, etc.

Hopefully I will fall into a nice groove again soon. Happy Friday!



" I always wonder why birds stay in the same place when they can fly anywhere on the earth. Then I ask myself the same question."

{ Run...Baby.....Run }

Ever feel like running away? Yeah, me too. Running away for just a few minutes can make your life a whole lot sweeter. But don't get to caught up and run away all the time until you lose your identity.

"Travelling makes me modest - I see what a tiny place I occupy in the world."

If you like a whole bunch of things and I like a whole bunch of things,maby....one of the things that we both like,can be each other.
