"Love—the true kind of love, the kind of love that overflows inside of us because of who God is and who we are and who He has born us anew to be—ought to pervade every piece of our life."

Question.
What do you guys want for Christmas?
Realistically-- Unrealistically--
(and if you are reading this you are obligated to tell me.) sorry. =P *and if you don't want me to post your comment then just say so.
Unrealistically: I want another dog. (as far as my parents are concerned it's never going to happen. I even offered to get them one for Christmas...I think they got what I was trying to do) When I move out...I am going to have like 10...okay maybe not 10, I am trying for 3. & 3 big dogs at that...no more sissy little dogs...yes i love my snickers but i want some labs!
okay lol
Realistically... i'm going to be all Christian about this, but I don't want it to be Christian...I want it to be my life. I don't want it to be "putting in my time" or "saying what i HAVE to say" I think the best thing would be to Love, like Jesus, unconditionally, with great fervor. The more I think about it, the more I find my life meaningless. To just take that jump, like that great book..."jump into the ocean,deep, free." Oh i need to read that book again!
alright this comment is long enough. But as sincerely as i can say it...that's what i want for Christmas.
unrealistically: -a car -parents tell me I'm going to spend the summer in africa -anthropologie telling me that I can have a free wardrobe -my school canceling exams after christmas (yes, they are AFTER christmas break!)
realistically: -quality time with my family -some clothes! -to be suprised with something, because christmas has lost most of its suprise for me =) -okay, some clothes

I do believe if I told you you may just get it for me... so I do believe I'm just not going to say. =P
Lauren: I should get you a dog, that'd be amazing. =)
Stephen: I didn't really give you a choice on whether or not you wanted to tell me...=P
