The Beginning of An End

Originally, I had planned to post a blog entry after my senior prom this Saturday and title it "The Beginning of An End." Although I still plan to blog about prom (but of course!), after my senior retreat these past two days, I felt this post more appropriately deserved this title.  

The only real mistake is the one from which I learn nothing.

There are times in our lives when our actions are not consistent with our ideals. All of us have times when we don't live as we believe.

Friendship is a gift, a freedom, a mystery, and a risk.

Sacrifice is the language of love.

It's easy to live with a God I've been taught to believe in, but it's easier to love a God I've found for myself.

Sometimes you feel at a loss because you see what is missing in your life, instead of recognizing the good things that you have.

Don't just be alive; start living.

A leader is one whose evaluation of the present is a fixture of the past, whose truth is reality, whose reality  is understanding, whose understanding is life, and whose life challenges the complacency of living.

How do I live love?
