Nico, take it slow,
Show me that you care cause love's just not a flare on my sleeve

Sleep well, I pray that cardboard boxes set the perfect stage
'Cause woodgrain makes all man make things seem so out of date,
Life is not a play its what we make of the people we love,

Snails see the benefits,
The beauty in every inch
Oh, why, why, why, why, oh, why,
Are you quick to kiss?

She bites at blades and leaves, goddamn you shrubbery,
I'm sick of vanity plates
Should we move to the UK?
'Cause life here in the States has escaped
All the people above
Life's what we make of those people we love

Snails see the benefits,
The beauty in every inch
Oh, why, why, why, why, oh, why,
Are you quick to kiss?

Baby maybe, I spoke too soon
I'll touch you once you make the first move
Snails see the benefits,
The beauty in every inch

I watch her as she runs,
My mother jumps the gun,
She puts her in her arms,
That is just like my mom
Never lets go, never lets me grow old,
I wanna pay her back,
But love is nothing you can tax

My family's not rich by any means,
But I feel we won the lottery that day,
The rock swallowed the girl,
And I cried as cameras caught my eyes,
My tears turned into butterflies,
They fly away as caskets close
A new day comes you'll wake unfold,
Smile when you feel the sunlight,
You feel the sunlight,
You feel the sunlight
You feel the sunlight,

Snails see the benefits,
The beauty in every inch
Oh, why, why, why, why, oh, why,
Are you quick to kiss?

Baby maybe, I spoke too soon
I'll touch you once you make the first move,
Snails see the benefits,
The beauty in every inch

Snails see the benefits,
The beauty in every inch

Philippians 2

my mysace blog post Tuesday, June 22, 2004:

life is great! just thought I would say that! Also, knowing God and knowing that He has a plan for my life is great. Knowing that if I let Him take control there is no telling what adventures He will take me on! there are so many things to live for... I love to live for creating, for loving, for worship, for friends, for family, for cool autumn days, for serving, for peculiar beauty, for giving, for making music, for laughter, for spontaneity, for Christ, for the beauty of life itself, and the even more exquisite beauty of the life to come... This is incredibly random, but it is just the feeling I had when I woke up this morning.


I still believe that.

Heypenny Photo Shoot

I did a photoshoot for heypenny today. they are amazing... and the music video from this song is going to blow you away.

The shoot was a blast! The guys in Heypenny made these costumes out of household items and spray painted them for their music video... It was great to see my friends Robin, joseph paul and Joey. They make great videos you can see them at paperbeatsrock.tv

so fun. I'll have more up soon

a book

i am toying with the idea of writing a book.

I love this

Lausanne, Switzerland

this is where I used to live. It's gorgeous.

on my run this morning

on my run this morning a nice gentleman stopped me to make sure I was eating my fruits and vegetables. My neighborhood is hilarious.

I live in Nashville

and the grass is just as green here as other places.

A person will worship something

A person will worship something, have no doubt about that. We may think our tribute is paid in secret in the dark recesses of our hearts, but it will out. That which dominates our imaginations and our thoughts will determine our lives, and our character. Therefore, it behooves us to be careful what we worship, for what we are worshipping we are becoming.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

it's funny how much my mind can get wrapped up in such trivial things in life. I worry about things that I should just let go of. I worry about what other people think... I look at the little picture instead of the big one. I trust the moment instead of trusting a future plan.

While I was running today I started thinking about how I got to where I am now... I have lived so many places and done so many things that sometimes I feel I have already lived numerous lifetimes... and now here I am in Nashville. If you would have asked me 5 years ago if I ever thought I would live in nashville I would have said hecks no and probably laughed at you. I had never even been to nashville nor ever thought about living here... yet Nashville is where I find myself. It's funny the way life goes sometimes... I often sit in wonder of how God works ... It's almost tricky. I make decisions... I am faced with tons of decisions every day. like today I could have stayed in bed and slept until one... but instead I decided to get up and go to a new church... Church!... and I am very happy that I did... I made new friends and got to see some old friends that I didn't expect to see...

I know I have my own free will... but it's sometimes undeniable that my own free will and the decisions I make are all part of a bigger plan... like God uses the decisions I make... good or bad... to always effect my life in a positive way and help me grow... It's almost like a conspiracy... I guess that is where "He will turn all things to good for those who love him" really rings true. My imperfections are not a surprise to Him... He knows them and loves me all the same. It's quite comforting to know that even when my faith is at its absolute weakest and when I am living in the moment and not trusting the one who I believe created me for a reason that I can still be a part of a plan that is bigger than myself... It truly takes an act of your will to trust... you have to let go and believe in order to trust... and that is not easy... but when you do the load that this weird but beautiful life seems to throw on your back becomes so much lighter. So I will continue to chose to trust... because for me it's a lot more comforting to trust than to distrust.

Mckendree Augustas

Did a photoshoot early this morning with one of my best friends on the planet. I've known him since I was 5 years old. We had a lot of fun walking around this really awesome bridge in east nashville. Mckendree is an amazing person and has a heart of gold.



Today is a really hard day for me... there are things happening that are out of my control and it really messes with my head and my emotions. But I am lucky that I have a lot of awesome people and friends around me that are keeping me distracted and having fun.

Seabass

I put a down payment on my new best friend yesterday. His name is Sebastian or "Seabass" for short. He's a miniature long haired dachshund... and he stole my heart. I don't have a picture at them moment because he won't be ready until next week... but believe me... you will be overwhelmed with photos once I get the little fella.

this is what he'll look like one day.



only seabass will be cuter.
