remember...

It's not often I write a blog two days in a row. During the school year I can go weeks without writing. Some part of my brain wakes up during the summer when I can read more... watch movies more... I think more. Sometimes good and sometimes not so good.

I don't think everything I do in life will be insignificant. I live my life based on my belief that I made the most significant decision of my life to believe in God and have a personal relationship with Him. I can't completely talk about the quote without giving away the movie, but let's say it left an impression. The tagline is "live in the moments." I want to live in the moments...
