It's Like a Rainbow Vanishing

To me that means a good thing. For example, after a bad storm, then there's a rainbow and once it has vanished, you can go on with your day (or life).

The Shack

I finished reading The Shack.

Mackenzie Allen Phillips's youngest daughter Missy , has been abducted during a family vacation and evidence thhat she may have been brutally murdered is found in an abandoned shack deep in the Oregon wilderness. Four years later, in the midst of his Great Sadness, Mack receives a suspicious note, apparently from God, inviting him back to that shack for a weekend.

Against his better judgement he arrives at the shack on a wintry afternnoon and walks back into his darkest nightmare. What he finds there will changge Mack's world forever.

In a world where religiion seems to grow increasingly irrelevant THE SHACK wrestles with the timeless question, "Where is God in a world filled with unspeakable pain?" The answers Mack gets will astound you and perhaps transform you as much as it did him. You'll want everyone you know to read this book!

My Life in Movie Format chapter 3

I started to feel what a celebrity must feel. There was lights and music and people all the time. So, I began to party like I was famous. I moved around a lot. One of the first places I went to was a room that a friend from high school rented. He and his friends introduced me to acid. The first time I tripped was unreal. Me and my friend took the acid in the room and just as it was kicking in, we got a ride from some people.

That night brought us to many places, physically and emotionally. My favorite part was when we were peaking and we were sitting on a bench at a baseball field. It felt like it wasn't the ground that we were on but water. I could feel the bench floating and then I flicked a cigarette into the field and looked like the "water" put it out. That night started a short love affair with acid. What I loved most about it was the people it introduced me to.

I also started going to college at Mass Art during that time. I felt truly free. When I finally settled somewhere it was because a professor of mine knew something was going on with me. The fact was that I was homeless and out of money. As fate would have it, she had enormous pulling in the housing office. I was in my very own dorm room that day.

I met a guy named Gus in the dorm and we started drinking together almost every night. One night I had just bought a pair of roller skates at the thrift store and I was skating up and down the halls of the dorm. It was funny because we shared the dorm with M.I.T. students. We would hear them clacking away on their computers and I'm sure they could hear us partying.

On my birthday I started going out with a friend named Dan. I was truly in love. We enjoyed all the same things and he was really funny. We continued to party that year and the next year in the dorms and the following year in our apartment in Allston. It was there that I saw a movie that changed my life.

Stick To Your Guns

I saw a shirt today that said "Stick to your guns". It made me realize that I can't do that because I don't have any guns. I give up on everything and I don't really stand for anything. I'm 32 years old. I need to find my guns.
