One of the most freeing things you can do as a Christian is start praying over EVERYTHING. And I don't mean "actually remember to pray over the important things that deserve divine attention" or something I mean the stupid stuff

"my videogame controller isn't working properly and it's messing up my game and it's really frustrating me, but I really wanted to play this right now" you have NO idea how often this actually works

"God I can't find my other shoe and I'm in a hurry, please help me find it" BOOM, found.

"I can't sleep because I'm getting myself worked up, give me peace." And it works. Consistently!

Yes we should treat God with reverence, but you misunderstand; he is our father, and our friend. Talk to him. Talk to him about anything and everything. He'll always hear it.

and if i may add, training yourself to pray for other people just in passing is good too. if i’m on the road and i see someone on a motorcycle, i pray that they’ll get home safe. if i’m at work and notice a customer seems a bit annoyed or down on themselves, i pray that they’ll be given peace. if i see someone having a good day, i thank Him for that gift for them, even if i myself am not having the best time.

praying for yourself and your friends is beautiful, and praying for strangers is just as much so

Let it end. 
Let it hurt. 
Let it heal.
Let it flow.

#not necessarily anti-Donna#more like there’s this illusion in fandom with regard to these two#dick is like ghost in the minds of his many fans#most of what he is just haunts people like a poorly remembered memory#it’s like a song most people get wrong#remembering mistaken lyrics#dick and donna isn’t what it’s cracked up to people#like most of Dick’s so-called relationships it exists in 4th wall#what’s funny most of the thing fans give Donna credit for is 100% what Dick actually does

Whither away, thou wingéd flower,
Instinct with tremulous light and motion?
Art thou a spirit, born of the hour,
Adrift on the breezes' lulling ocean?

Velvety, quivering thing of light,
The incarnation of summer splendor,
Is there an aim in thine airy flight,
A thought that throbs in thy pinions tender?

Thy wavering wings translucent bear
An azure dream to a lily sleeping,—
An instant poised in the fragrant air,
And lightly into the faint heart peeping.

Once more away, all pure and soft,
With prisoned rainbows about thee clinging,
Flitting and circling, half-vanished aloft,
Then dipping low to the stream's glad singing.

O fluttering, gauzy mystery,
Frail-winged creature, glimmering, fleeing,
Thou art but a tinted ecstasy,—
A joy with life and a tireless being.

Thou hast no purpose to guide thy flight,
Nor does thy folly demand forgiving.
Thy wings must beat with thy heart's delight
In the glorious rapture of merely living!
