never forget

what you saw, what you learned, what you felt, what you experienced two days ago.

Never become comfortable with where you are. Never be content as long as there is injustice, suffering, hunger, oppression... Never be so consumed with school that you let it cause you to forget the more important things in life. But be uncomfortable. Be uneasy. Yes, feel blessed, but more than that, feel burdened.
Never forget, Angie.

Three times a day.
I have to clean my newly pierced cartilage every day for the next twelve weeks using the solution they gave me. It hurts quite a lot every now and then. My cartilage piercing cost almost $30, including tax and service charges and everything. Someone would literally die for that amount of money, and I just threw it away like that? But rather than wallowing in this realization of my selfishness and lust for materialistic things, I'm going to make this an opportunity.



Three times a day.
Be reminded of how blessed you are, and pray for those in need of the love and grace and mercy that has already been lavished upon you. Let it be a permanent scar, a permanent reminder of all that you've learned this past Saturday. And when it hurts, let your heart also break for those whom the Lord's heart breaks for.
