Healing

Twelve years ago the people of America watched in shock and disbelief as news cast after news cast reported the horrific bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Building in downtown Oklahoma City. Then the deadliest attack on American soil, it claimed 168 lives and left more than 800 injured. The pain still remains for friends and family who know too well the effects of hatred and violence.


Be still my soul, be still my soul
Cease from the labor and the toil
Refreshing springs of peace await
To troubled minds and hearts that ache

Be still my soul, God knows your way
And he will guide for His name's sake
Plunge in the rivers of His grace
Rest in the arms of His embrace

Be still my soul, be still my soul
Though troubles round you rage and roar
One thing you need and nothing more
To hear the whisper of your Lord



Our prayers are with the victims of Oklahoma City, Columbine High School, September 11, Virginia Tech, and all other attacks through history.

W*W*W*W*W*W*W*W*W*W

EDIT: So I got my hair cut yesterday for the first time since some time last fall maybe? As usual (this happens every time) I hated it at first, then several hours and compliments later, yeah, I definitely like it! Not that I live on other people's approval, it's just that I figure it must not be THAT bad if other people like it.

This is the idea of the cut I got. Just insert my face under the hair.



And FINALLY Clyde and Elena are out. Now we can reall yenjoy the rest of the season.
