train of thought

CHOOO CHOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ALL ABOARD THATS COMING ABOARD THE PHILLIPS TRAIN OF THOUGHT!!!

ok ok so this will not be a narrative or a whatever idk. so yeah im blogging because im having withdrawals from facebook and what not because of my goal to give it up for the 10 weeks im doing the "experiancing God" bible study which is really great thus far.

im gonna be honest i had a point...AHAHA! I was going to tell you about my day today!

so highlights: went to class, picked up swell friend Raina, took her home, then i went to my home, ate dinner, aired up my flattened tired, then got on the road to my bible study.....

here is when it happened. i was traveling along, speeding more or less down broad towards belt line, then i spy something on the road...moving on the road OH MY GOSH ITS A TURTLE!!! eereeeerrrrrrr (haha gotcha i didnt squeal my tires) i swerved out of its way though. then trying to recover from the suprise, i realized at its pace would still prolly get crushed! so i pulled over, locked the car, and i ran back down the road to where i had saw him. he had made to the otherside safely but couldnt make it over the curb! so after a few seconds of nervous evaluation i reached down and picked him up, so he at least would be safe and out of the street. i placed him down next to the man made pond or lake.
feeling very happy with my selfless deed, i waited for him to move out of his shell so i could take a picture. but it didnt. but i waited and its head came out some, i took a few pictures anyway.
then i received a phone call, getting up i answered their question and slowly turned around towards the turtle who after my first step, bolted into the lake!! which i now see why the tortoise beat the hare! because he was faaaaast! he got me good on that one, but i'll still enjoy the pictures i have of its shell anyways.


after said turtle rescue i went to cedar hood and picked up my new glasses which are framelessly fabulous! lol. then to bible study where we talked about prayer, it was all in all a very great day i suppose.

anyways so that was my day...

i'll now give you a brief synopsis update thing of whats been going through my thoughts lately:
im falling out of love with my wendy darling, so we both can move on in life. its been horrbly tough. but we each agree its for the better. im going to try and not deal with dating scene for a few months unless God presents a case sooner to me. another reason what im doing the excperiancing God bible study so i can try to grow in my communication and deeper love relationship with Him.

i love my best friends, and late night phone calls! so call me up whenever. im usually in bed before 230-3 A.M.

P.S. i got the new skillet CD "Awake" which is abosolutely suuuuuperb! favorite songs include Lucy, Monster, Hero, and Don't Wake Me. but thats just cuz i can relate to the lyrics in those the most. the whole ablum is amazing, and well done.

yours truly,
phillip

Two Songs On My Mind

~In Shallow Seas We Sail _ by Emery~
I got eyes in the back of my head and I see where you're going with this.
I'm not surprised. You take me for a fool. Maybe you're right.
If I was wiser I would not have let myself come here tonight.

You're such a sap. You never learn.
Here I am watching the summer fading. (The summer we shared fades away with the winter)Your hands were warm on my face. Now they're crashing away. (Your hands were cold now...)Slowly pushing me away. Pushing me away. (Slower than icy veins slowly pushing me away)

I knew it (I knew it) right from the start.
I've got this big, big hole in my heart.
I wanted (I wanted) to put you in.
But for some reason you just wouldn't fit.
You just wouldn't fit.

You're such a sap. You never learn.
Here I am watching the summer fading. (The summer we shared fades away with the winter)Your hands were warm on my face. Now they're crashing away. (Your hands were cold now...)Slowly pushing me away. Pushing me away. (Slower than icy veins slowly pushing me away)Pushing me away.

Lust kept giving men so many regrets.
Just this once is what we tell ourselves.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

Ships don't sink if they have wind in their sails.
But if the wind fails, is there hope for me? (I guess your love...)I thought your love was safe. The promise you made...(wasn't so safe, the promise you made...)

Now I am drowning in your shallow sea; I swim.
(you are the storm, the wind and the waves.
you break me in two and toss me away)

You are the waves that toss me in.
(I fell apart when I fell for you)

How can I float above the water that fills my lungs?
(you are the water filing my lungs,
killing me softly without a word)

Killing me softly without a word.
(Without a word...)

~Crumble to Pieces _ by Phil Wickham~
You raise me beyond the skies, into a city of eternal light
Looking down on the stars, I fly into heaven, caught up in your arms

I Breathe Your fragrance, taste your goodness,
Crumble to pieces
Into Your love
In Your presence all my existence
Crumbles to pieces
Into Your love

I’m speechless what can I say
Words become tears
As You wipe them away
All my kisses and crowns at your feet
Fire of heaven burn love over me

It’s such a beautiful story
I’m face to face with the King of glory
You rescued someone unworthy, I know this is love

..Two very different bands, genre of song. Yet they both are christian and they both sing about love..

My Thought Express

*imagine a 1930's southern mans' accent telling this story*

Life is splendor and we are the wind. Or more properly stated "gone with the wind"

We are not followers but rather partakers in its thrill of adventure that is mighty flexible to any and every circumstance. My friends and I would the authority call "criminals" but others see ourselves differrently...We live for the moments, that draw us together. We love what we do and we do what we love; plain an' simple.

Today flirting with the beaches of Destin, tomorrow watching the sunrise over the Smokies. There are side trips that we make in order to live such a life. Requires guns, girls and confidence to love off of Banks, trains, and automobiles; the neccessities to life's sustainability.

Girls are essential. They are emotional and many a time they are confusing. Darling put the her cart berfore the horse so that we could not see the horse that caused sorrow and frustration into her cart...may have to shoot that horse. ...nawh don't reckon I would honestly shoot down whatever it is...but I sure as oxygen want it good and gone from my Darling.

"We were having so much fun today, we're not thinking about tomorrow..." unfortunatley we've found out the harder way...that has proven the redecision in our motto...some misfortunate deaths have occured amidst the group and we know our time is coming to a close.

Time for the Train. It is coming into town just to meet us.

I've got my girl, my basette hound, a stringed guitar and a empty canvas...LETS GO
