“Learn to like what doesn't cost much.
Learn to like reading, conversation, music.
Learn to like plain food, plain service, plain cooking.
Learn to like fields, trees, brooks, hiking, rowing, climbing hills.
Learn to like people, even though some of them may be different...different from you.
Learn to like to work and enjoy the satisfaction doing your job as well as it can be done.
Learn to like the song of birds, the companionship of dogs.
Learn to like gardening, puttering around the house, and fixing things.
Learn to like the sunrise and sunset, the beating of rain on the roof and windows, and the gentle fall of snow on a winter day.
Learn to keep your wants simple and refuse to be controlled by the likes and dislikes of others.”

Oh hey.
I'm still somewhat alive.
I just took a "soul searching break" as I would categorize it.
Don't worry, you don't need to write my obituary yet
(speaking of, they are not the funnest things to read).

PAST
In my soul searching journey, I discovered many things about life. 
Particularly my life. Obviously.

But I thought I'd share some of them.
Ten to be specific.
Or just put them down on record somewhere, so I don't forget.

1. Satan freaking hates me (oh, and he hates you too).
2. Jesus Christ loves me (oh, and yes, he loves you too).
3. Family relationships are second to my relationship with Christ,
and they always should be.
4. Friendships &relationships (or lack thereof) 
are third to my relationship with Christ.
5. Music has a tendency to calm my heart, and always will.
6. I'm nervous/scared/terrified of my future. Because of Satan.
7. Scriptures also have a tendency to calm me.
Weird right? Psych. Not even.
8. Sometimes I just need a big bear hug. Usually on a daily basis.
9. Kitten pictures never fail to make me smile, giggle, smirk,
or all of the above.
10. On rare occasion, it's okay to wear PJ's all the time, and not shower for days

That was learned in the past, and is now applied in the present.
