So I guess this is kind of like my blog world or something. This is actually where my Share the Love world used to be, but I never used it for what I intended it to be. So now it's gone, and I've changed my blog title to The Labyrinth because I feel like life can be a lot like the Labyrinth in legends. It's a giant maze and we're all just people stumbling through it. Sometimes we mess up and make wrong turns because we can't clearly see what we should do, and sometimes we can clearly see that path we must take. Sometimes we do take that path, other times we are led astray by tricks and temptations. I'm trying to learn to navigate the Labyrinth of my life, to find beauty and reasons to smile, and to keep my eyes on the constants, the rise of the moon and sun, the continuity of change, the way time pushes forward and one minute melts into another, allowing us to eventually leave all the bad times in the past where they belong.

So, um...

Name: Sara. (Hate my boring name. And my boring middle name. In fact, only like my last name)

Personality: It really depends. I am a very strongly emotional person and the way I am really depends on my current emotions.

Age: 17 (Senior in high school)

Favorite color: I love all colors and see them as potentially artistic and beautiful...but if I had to choose, blue.

Favorite numbers: 4, 16, 394.

Likes: Reading, writing, drawing, painting, art, listening to music, complaining, skiing, ice skating, making up stories in my head, laughing, making people laugh, cool/wild clothes, inspirational quotes, good friends, Harry Potter.

Hates: any sort of stinging insect, judgmental people.

Religion: tolerance. Well, actually, I am a Christian, but my point is that I don't care if you're not. I am so sick of people using their religion as an excuse to hate others. As long as you're a good person I don't care if you don't believe the same thing as I do. In fact, one of my favorite quotes: "What a coincidence that God hates all the same people you do!"

People I admire: J.K. Rowling (of course), Suzanne Collins, Dr. Seuss, Luna Lovegood (she's real to me!), Barack Obama (No haters please, I'm not here for a political debate), Adele.

My current obsession: looking up videos for songs with Harry Potter clips in them. A good one for this world, I believe, is this.

Welcome to my blog.

rough day...

Where do I even begin??? Today hasn't been fun. You see, we're having company because of the church event tomorrow, and of course I have to obsessively clean the house for the guests. I really don't like vaccuums...the sound reminds me of angry pe...

*screams in delight*

AAAAAHHHHH!!!!!

YES!!! I am so happy, so excited, I swear that NOTHING can upset me right now. You see...

We got a call last night...yesterday, my aunt had her baby! It's a little girl! I LOVE BABIES! I now have four little cousins on that side of the family, but this is the first girl...if you don't count a couple of cousins by marriage, but we hardly see them.

And the best part? So...my brother and I weren't going to be allowed to go visit my grandparents on my mother's side this year, and I was thinking about how I was really going to miss all my little cousins...but now, for some reason, we'll be allowed to go. So I'll get to see all of them and the new baby! And I can't wait.

I'M SO HAPPY!!!!!THERE AREN'T ENOUGH EXCLAMATION POINTS TO EXPRESS IT!!!!The fist thing I did when I heard was run around screaming and jumping up and down...now I'm gonna go so I can tell my friend.

Haha! And happy Mother's Day!

For Mother's Day, I cleaned my room, vaccuumed the house, and went shopping with my Mom. If that doesn't sound like a great gift, let me tell you, I really dislike all those things. But hey, with all Mom does for the family, I can do that much for...

I'm so sorry...

This world here is supposed to be all about being a nice person and loving everyone, and here I go ranting on and on about how much I hate people and things...I'm really sorry. I don't hate people, I just think I do sometimes. I've been kind of un...
