What Is Love?

Hello. Happy third of July. How was your yesterday? Mine was wonderful. My church had an Independence Day celebration after the service. (If it hadn't been a short notice thing, I would have invited you guys.) After that, I went swimming at a friend's house with my youth group. It was super fun. I drove to my friend's house, on the way I saw my friends. I beeped at them like "Hi guys! Look who is driving by themselves." (They are both older than me but I got my license first.) I learned that The Flash swims faster than me though. (Not too too much faster, but faster nonetheless.) I need to fix this. At youth we played a game and I won a $2 bill. I feel pretty privileged. I think my brother is sneaking candy or something out of the pantry...🤔 He is out now.
It is kind of grey outside, I think you guys need something to make you smile. Here.
 Have some cute fuzzy cows. You are welcome. SO, question of the day, What is Love?
Shakespeare has an answer for that through his lovesick teenage character, Romeo. He says,

Love is a smoke raised with fumes of sighs:
 Being purged, a fire sparkling in lovers' eyes:
Being vexed, a sea nourished with loving tears.
What is it else? A madness most discreet,
A choking gall, and a preserving sweet.

Ah, dear Romeo. Could you have said that better? Now, God's answer to this question. 

1 Corinthians 13:4-8King James Version (KJV)

4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;

6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;

7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

I chose King James version because it was written around the time when Shakespeare was alive. Also I am partial to King James. For the beauty of the poem, I enjoy Romeo's definition more. I know it is a human answer and therefore is not the ultimate reality, but he's not wrong either.  I wanted to make sure that you guys all know the true definition of love though, because I don't want you to go do something ridiculous and then be like, "Cowgirl said..." 
My coffee got cold. That is sad. I lost my writing rhythm. Saturday I wrote a poem. Mom didn't like it though so I will not be posting it. Tomorrow I intend to make a "Page". I am not entirely certain what those are supposed to look like, but I encourage you to check it out. I think that is all for today. Have a great day.


Wait, One more thing:
Smile, it looks good on you. 🌞

First Post/ Finding Inspiration

As This is my first ever blog post, I thought this random writing rather suits the situation.  Enjoy. 😎   Here I sit, trying to find some inspiration for my pen to express on this page.  I close my eyes and let my thoughts sink into the depths of my soul in search of emotion.  All is pitch black, yet I can see; no, feel the dread beasts nearby.  Anger breathes down my neck while Ignorant Joy juggles knives in an effort to comfort Self Conscious who is weeping in the corner.  The more dangerous emotions I prefer to keep locked in steel cages.  To my left, Fear growls and tries to convince me to let him out.   Behind me, red hot Anger still heaves his fiery breath, singeing the hairs on my neck.  To my right, are Love and Trust.  By far the most dangerous of the group, yet also the most inspiring.  Together they conspire over an intense game of cards how they will soon rule the world.  I boldly approach them and twist the key...

Master's Camp 2018

Hey, all. I know that has been quite some time since my last post. I have had a lot going on. Even now, I have a lot going on in my mind. But let me tell you about camp. We went to Master's Camp at Alto Frio, (Which btw means like Cold River or something like that in Spanish.) On the first two days we learned/discussed how God is bigger than our tiny minds can fathom and how He can provide for our every need. Tuesday afternoon the entire camp was told not to use the water. There was something wrong that caused the camp's water pressure to go way down. At first they thought that it was a busted water line, but soon we learned that it was the drought. The wells where the camp got water from were nearly empty. Over 800 campers, no running water. All of the leaders met together to pray, our church group also met together and prayed, along with others. We knew God would provide. (After all, that was what we had been talking about for two days, was it not?) Sure enough, within hours,...

Legless Lizards??? What the Chicken Nuggets is that???

Hey guys, I have about seven minutes. So let's go! I will talk about yesterday later, but first I want to talk about today. This morning, I was watching Blippi on youtube with #5, and he was at a museum and pointed to this reptile which apparently was not a snake, but a legless lizard. And I was on the couch like: What the heck is a legless lizard??? Isn't that just a snake? Or maybe it is the serpent from the Bible...Maybe snakes were already a thing? WHO KNOWS. So we are going to learn about legless lizards if I have a chance to finish this blog post today. I would do it over lunch, but I have to go home for lunch because a certain person has my lunch bag.... (Love you, certain person.) I might have time after school, but I have to stay late to cover a club for yearbook. Busy Busy Busy. Soon. Soon I will have a life again. Alright. So yesterday, then lizards. My day began with mom gently waking me up, which was pretty cool. Then I had a cucumber for breakfast because we ...
