Inside my heart of hearts I keep a quiet place tucked away,deep down far from the other parts of my soul,so that it's pale secrets may never escape out into the world. I keep it there to always remind me of the things I have loved and lost. It is in this place where I keep memories that I shared with only one other person,one of whom I love very much,and one who will always be close to my heart no matter how far apart we may be. In this place I also keep my love for God,so that wherever my life will lead me,my love will always burn in me and keep my life in peace. I knew a place once,it was a Gothic church on the border of Germany,that my family and I found during one of our many adventures. It was the most beautiful church I had ever seen in my life,and it was there that I found my faith. Walking down the dark isles of the sanctuary,I thought of all the people in the past who had come there to pray and to give their thanks for all the blessings in their lives. I give my thanks for all the good people I have known throughout my life and all the blessing I have been given...
With my deepest affection

I love those quiet places... I have a few of my own. My room is one of my biggest sanctuaries... not many people have been down there, even though I don't mind having people in. I also have several retreats in my mind... That's still my one remaining fortress... No one can get inside my head...
Yea,I can't do that because my mind's too easy to pry into. That's why I use my heart instead,no one has ever been able to penetrate it.
And besides,if anyone ever does,hearts heal...
Oh,by the way,good news!
I'll be able to come to your B-Day party,if you'll still have me. Brandy swapped shifts with me on that day,so it turns uot that I'll get off work around 4:00. :D
My heart was broken into long ago... I haven't even trusted myself with it... It's never healed completely. I've kept it locked away since... I'm afraid to trust myself with it. My head is it's own safe and combination. I can change the password as many times as I want, but I can never change my heart... My heart is my soul.
Yay! It's going to be a fuuun time! One of my friends is comin' over from Fort Wayne, Indiana. Remember, downtown Mill, 2-5:30!
Awww man!!! I don't get off work until 4:00 pm!!! and if the party's 2-5:30 it'll be kinda pointless for me to try and make it cuz it takes 20 min to get there from my house...=(
I dunno... you'd still have some time to hang out. Just come anways... it'll be great fun! You'll have a good hour if not more.
Ok,i'll try and be there. But my mom wants me to have someone with me, and Sam and Liz are both working late
Hey, good post, Victoria! my quiet place used to be my bedroom, but since we moved to this new house my bedroom has sort of turned into the common sitting area for the entire neighborhood. which is why I never clean it. its repulsive state keeps the people away. :D
I like to think of my mind as a fortress, too...although neither my heart or my head has been tried and tested yet, so I really dont know which one is stronger, if any. dang...that would stink...if neither of them were very strong...I'd probably have to become a hermit or something. actually, that doesnt sound too bad. then I could talk to animals without feeling stupid cause that's the normal thing for hermits to do. what a good idea! thanks, guys!
Oh, and Curtis! I'm probably going to be able to come to the mill on Wednesday, but maybe only for a little bit. my dad kinda bought Lincoln Stars tickets for the entire family, but the game doesnt start till like, 7. so we should be good to go. :)
Victoria! Please don't tell me that you showed up yesterday and no one was there, or I'll go and step out in front of Ost traffic... Lol, actually I left a little early (somewhere around 5-ish). Only Jo showed up, but we had a smashing time. Next time we hang out, I should teach you how to play Rummikub... it's the best thing since Risk...
