A Little Faith2:08am thursday, 12th september
To he who thinks it unfair, this world that God has given us, who thinks perhaps that God Himself is a lie: let me give you a little idea of faith.

I had a dream where I could wish for anything, and it was mine. I wished for countless things, and I was happy for a little while, but there was a point where I became bored with it all, and nothing I wished for anymore could satisfy me. Then I had another dream, where I was naked, and all I had was a pen. The thing about this pen was that every once in a while, it would run out of ink. If I stopped trying to write with it, then it would in a little bit be full of ink again. I wrote and wrote and wrote and wrote, stopping here and there for when the ink would run out and fill again. I wondered where the ink was coming from when I realized that the pen wasn't a pen at all, and that what I had written was the story of my life: I was the pen, and God was the ink.

Though I had nothing else in that second dream, my writing in that dream was always fresh, and I was happy. That's the secret, I think: if you have everything (like the first dream), you can still have nothing at all; but in the second dream, by simply having God (and nothing else), you can have happiness, and life itself.

This entry is just beautiful. I came across your site for the first time this week, and your writing is eloquent, extremely intelligent, and very deep. It has inspired me to think more deeply about my life. Thank you so much for writing!

i think this is one of the most inspiring words
that i have heard in a long time. my best friend
gets everything she wants from her parents, and
never has to work for it.they are even getting her
a brand new car. but my family isn't as fortunate as
hers and i work twice as hard as her. you enrty has
made me realize that i don't need material things to be
happy.

this entry was eloquent that many in this country should hear over the past year in their yearning for answers and whom and what to look up to-you have answered the questions that have been asked of me

It is awesome that you have overcome so many hardships, yet still hold fast to your faith. I have gone through many hardships myself, the greatest of which barely stand up to your least. At this point in my life I very much question the existence of a higher being, and wonder what I have ever done to deserve the hardships that s/he has put before me. I wish you well in all that you set out to do, and hope that through faithfullness to God you will find serenity.

Actually, Krista, I could not have gotten through it all without my faith. Peace.

this is so beautiful. I have a friend who is ill and I try to gently put it to him that god is our comforter,the one above all things, the one who brings us joy. All i wanna say is thanks.
