For Better or Worse?

My sister recently lent me her DVDs of "The Butterfly Effect" & "The Prestige." Totally different movies entirely, except for the fact that one small incident can change a lifetime of events. Sometimes I wonder how my life would be different at certain checkpoints of my life if I just did things slightly differently. Would I (and others) be better off? Or would we be for the worse? I guess all we can do is the best that we can with the knowledge that we have, in good faith, and hope it is for the best.

Future Goals

This has been a nice summer. I have been able to visit with friends I haven't seen for awhile. I have tried out some new recipes with success. I have discovered some new places of which I have never been, and visited old places which have changed, but are familiar. I hope to continue with gaining stronger bonds with my friends and finding new and different places. I am also hoping to get back into my illustrating, which I have not done much lately, but realized that I missed it desperately after taking on a mini-project as a favor for someone at my church.
