toute la gloire à votre nom

this is all i can come to. pictures of feet or shoes have been a current obsession of mine lately and i didn't necessarily have any clue as to why this was so until today. writing about friendships and feeling so let down today by people really awoken a pull God has been tugging on for a long time. He was calling me back to him in so many different ways and I was not having any of it. 

i have been finding my worth in people. putting pressure on friends and family to be exactly what and who i need. but God is saying that i need to come to him and this foot picture fetish was another way he was telling me. I was taking so many pictures like these, but he was telling me this is what i should be looking at to find my worth. HIS FEET. i needed to lay down everything. every expectation, every doubt, every sin, every thought and come to his feet as He prepared the way for everything. 

i spent a really hard summer with God and didn't listen even though i knew he was. for the first time i came to His feet today and felt satisfied at the complicated mess i got myself into knowing God had already pulled me out by his son Jesus. are you here?

nous tous juste temps du besoin

fellowship as a child never really comes to complete terms with itself. there are no limits, excuses, or certain expectations for deeming someone worthy of your friendship. if they are there and present they are all we need. the twisted part is that nothing has changed with age, we just create stupid divisions within ourselves. whether i was 6, 13, or 19, my closest friends have been those who are present and there for me, at all times. it is simple. be present. be here. and we will share in a beautiful friendship that only we could possibly understand enough to fully enjoy. i have only really met five friends who did that for me. they were always fully present. no texting other people while i was talking to them, no answering calls, no lists of to do's running through their heads. their time was my time and my time was fully their time. i have had enough of friends telling me how thankful they are of me when i help them see how great they are or help them when they need someone and they are alone. no. friendship shouldn't be conditional. it never has been and it won't be now that i'm 19 or in 4o years when i'm 59. no. friendship has NEVER been conditional to me. love me as i want to love you.

vous ne dormirez pas ce soir

hello you.

this young stunner is my wonderful father. although he can get pretty upset with me at times i enjoy his funny sense of humor and never ending bouts of wisdom. i hope you love your father as much as i love mine. i know a few of my friends adore my dad. tonight i'm going on a date with my dad to the movies haha. we are cruising to the dollar movies to see taking of pelham 123. 

Lately, i've had a hard time with the idea of friendship. i know i can call people to see a movie, eat sushi or just sip coffee beside, but i only have a rare few that i can cry in front of or feel confident in knowing they will still be sipping coffee beside me for another 10 more years. whether or not you think you belong on this list. here is what i have come up with. i love each one of you.

i hope you enjoy these photos i took of them just as much as i do. 

goda di.
