in our fleeting days.

hello out there! *long static noise* can anyone hear me?? i know i haven't been on this here Tumblr in a good minute, but if those of you who still follow me could take a moment to read my new personal blog, and comment here or there, that'd be much appreciated. i'm trying to gauge who reads what, and which accounts to keep open. let's face it, we could all stand to purge a bit of the domains & usernames we hoard for no good reason, right?   grateful. in His great love, suz 

this month's post.  p.s.-i've missed you, tumblr!  

"The root of the word courage is cor - the Latin word for heart. In one of its earliest forms, the word had a very different definition than it has today. Courage originally meant, "To speak one's mind by telling all one's heart." Over time, this definition has changed, and, today, courage is more synonymous with being heroic. Heroics is important and we certainly need heroes, but I think we've lost touch with the idea that speaking honestly and openly about who we are, about what we're feeling, and about our experiences (good and bad) is the definition of courage. Heroics is often about putting our life on the line. Ordinary courage is about putting vulnerability on the line. In today's world, that's pretty extraordinary."

i cannot stop listening to this song & album. it's goodness for the ears!
