the observer

she's like a sunset:

inexplicably beautiful and composed of the most brilliant colors.
she's not a rare thing, but is rarely appreciated.
she can be different day to day, but you can count on her to take your breath away if you take the time to notice.
she doesn't boast in her beauty. she doesn't even know she's beautiful. she's been told, but that's all she knows.
she's a beautiful thing that cannot be captured. not even for a moment.
she'll keep getting brighter and more beautiful until the very end.

she's one of the few that makes me want to sit and watch her for hours. watch her be her.


I can't remember the last time I watched a sunset.

Resolutions: Revisited (Again)

Screw my old goals.

They were way too complicated. And although I would still like to accomplish a majority of those goals, most of them I can't achieve in my current living situation. So, I've decided to set just 10 goals for the month of February, and I'll reevaluate at the beginning of March. Sound good? Good.

1) Get back on track with scripture reading
2) No more Skyrim/PS3/Xbox
3) Go outside for more than just to get to the next building
4) Exercise in the way you see fit that day
5) Cut back on sugar
6) Take more pictures
7) Keep reading
8) Keep writing
9) Go through the Preach My Gospel more often
10) Stay caught up in classes

Let's hope February goes better!
