Bearing the cost

I wish she would grow up. She wasted all her school time wanting to be the age she is now, and she'll waste all the rest of her life trying to stay that age.

sartre and camus

Existentialism is depressing. I'm glad that I look not into other people's eyes to find myself, but into the eyes of the Lord and see Christ. It amazes me yet again that the more we seek to lose ourselves in Him, the more our true selves we become. I was made to be me, but I can only be me in Him.
