"Let me ask you something. If someone prays for patience, you think God gives them patience? Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient? If he prayed for courage, does God give him courage, or does he give him opportunities to be courageous? If someone prayed for the family to be closer, do you think God zaps them with warm fuzzy feelings, or does he give them opportunities to love each other?" ~Evan Almighty "God"


When I close my eyes I can build it even higher,

this wall that I put around my heart.

Not anything could break it,

not sticks,

not stones,

not bullet-studded words.

I'll keep on adding bricks

and tie them together with blue heart strings

until I can feel the cold, hard weight of it in my chest

and my

...heart

....stops

.....beating
