i’m sailing home to you, i won’t be long
by the light of moon, i will press on
#563
I’m but a stranger here,
heaven is my home;
earth is a desert drear,
heaven is my home;
danger and sorrow stand
round me on every hand;
heaven is my fatherland,
heaven is my home.
what though the tempest rage,
heaven is my home;
short is my pilgrimage,
heaven is my home;
and time’s wild wintry blast
soon shall be over-past;
i shall reach home at last,
heaven is my home.

"Lift up your hands, oh gates!
And be lifted up, oh ancient doors,
That the King of glory may come in.
Who is the King of glory?
The Lord, strong and mighty! The Lord, mighty in battle!"
And be lifted up, oh ancient doors,
That the King of glory may come in.
Who is the King of glory?
The Lord, strong and mighty! The Lord, mighty in battle!"
— Psalm 24:7-8
i am a soul fallen apart, being pieced back together.
the process is quite tedious.
uncomfortable would be a tame descriptor.
excruciating is a better fit.
nonetheless,
i trust the hands of my carpenter;
he is making me beautiful.
he is making me more like him.
"All men dream:
but not equally.
Those who dream by night
in the dusty recesses of their minds
wake in the day
to find that it was vanity:
but the dreamers of the day
are dangerous men,
for they may act their dreams with open
eyes,
to make it possible."

"Here dies another day
During which I have had eyes, ears, hands,
And the great world around me;
And with tomorrow begins another.
Why am I allowed two?"

"Real love is action, not a feeling. It produces selfless, sacrificial giving. The greatest act of love anyone can do is to give him or herself for others. How can we lay down our lives? Sometimes it is easier to say we’ll die for others than to truly live for them."
— (via autumnejohnson)
"There are no ordinary people. You have never talked to a mere mortal. Nations, cultures, arts, civilisations - these are mortal, and their life is to ours as the life of a gnat. But it is immortals whom we joke with, work with, marry, snub, and exploit - immortal horrors or everlasting splendours."
