| Charlie Kaufman: There was this time in high school. I was watching you out the library window. You were talking to Sarah Marsh.
Donald Kaufman: Oh, God. I was so in love with her.
Charlie Kaufman: I know. And you were flirting with her. And she was really sweet to you.
Donald Kaufman: I remember that.
Charlie Kaufman: Then, when you walked away, she started making fun of you with Kim Canetti. It was like they were making fun of *me*. You didn't know at all. You seemed so happy.
Donald Kaufman: I knew. I heard them.
Charlie Kaufman: How come you looked so happy?
Donald Kaufman: I loved Sarah, Charles. It was mine, that love. I owned it. Even Sarah didn't have the right to take it away. I can love whoever I want.
Charlie Kaufman: She thought you were pathetic.
Donald Kaufman: That was her business, not mine. You are what you love, not what loves you. That's what I decided a long time ago. .... Whats up?
Charlie Kaufman: Thank you.
Donald Kaufman: For what? | | |
| dear friends,
ok.. so i have a prayer request. i know i have several brothers and sisters who read my xanga, so i feel that this is a good place to post prayer requests. here goes...
i have been having pain in my lower stomach area lately. it feels like ovarian pain. it was just on my left side, but now i can feel the pain on my right side. there have been other curious symptoms, but i will spare you any more details. the pain is not excruciating, but just enough to bother/worry me. i am going to the doctor soon to get it checked out. hopefully within the next week.
so... if all of you could please pray for me, that would be such a blessing.
i have been having a lot of emotional stresses in my life lately, so maybe that's all it is.
thank you for your prayers.

| so yesterday i was driving home (in the rain, of course), and i suddenly had this strong feeling that it would be the last day of rain. and i really thought to myself "the forecast calls for rain at least until tuesday..". but.. it didn't rain today. praise God!
AND i've had waterdeep "enter the worship circle" songs (one of the biggest musical blessing of my life) stuck in my head allllll day. one song in particular called "tender mercy". i love posting lyrics, so i will.
priase the LORD, oh my soul,
all the deepest parts.
give praise to the ONE
who called you out of darkness.
tender mercy,
you forgive me...
slow to anger,
quick to love.
as wide as the mountains try,
you love falls all aroud me.
as wide as the east to west,
my sins are taken from me.
He is just so good to His children. and He longs to fill all those deep and intimate places of our hearts. i know i try to make other people in my life fill those places, but they never, ever, ever will. they never will. not anyone but Jesus can complete us. He is the Savior of the world. He is the Savior of my heart.

| One of my dear friends sent this to me in an e-mail, and i found it very inspiring and thought-provoking.
ONE. Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.
TWO. Marry a man/woman you love to talk to. As you get older, their conversational skills will be as important as any other.
THREE. Don't believe all you hear, spend all you have or sleep all you want.
FOUR. When you say, "I love you," mean it.
FIVE. When you say, "I'm sorry," look the person in the eye.
SIX. Be engaged at least six months before you get married.
SEVEN. Believe in love at first sight.
EIGHT. Never laugh at anyone's dream. People who don't have dreams don't have much.
NINE. Love deeply and passionately. You might get hurt but it's the only way to live life completely.
TEN. In disagreements, fight fairly. No name calling.
ELEVEN. Don't judge people by their relatives.
TWELVE. Talk slowly but think quickly.
THIRTEEN. When someone asks you a question you don't want to answer, smile and ask, "Why do you want to know?"
FOURTEEN. Remember that great love and great achievements involve great risk.
FIFTEEN. Say "God bless you" when you hear someone sneeze.
SIXTEEN. When you lose, don't lose the lesson .
SEVENTEEN. Remember the three R's: Respect for self; Respect for others; and responsibility for all your actions.
EIGHTEEN. Don't let a little dispute injure a great friendship.
NINETEEN. When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.
TWENTY. Smile when picking up the phone. The caller will hear it in your voice.
TWENTY-ONE. Spend some time alone.
my take: i'm not sure how i feel about #6. i, for one, am looking forward to a quick engagement; #11 stings a little; #12: i talk too much...; i am really gonna try and put #20 into action; #21 makes me wonder if i spend enough time alone. i don't think i do.
shalom everyone.
