I live. I am human. I am a teenager. I am a guy. I live for something greater. I struggle with the basics. I groan at the usual. But I keep living to do what has been asked of me.
You can call me Speedy.
I'm here to reach out to the ones I love and care for. Once in a while I'll get sentimental, or deep, and probably blog something like it.
My life has simple aims, and a difficult path to them. I deal with it the best I can.
I am Speedy. I am Christian, but do not fear me, for I will love you regardless. I guess this is the chance for anyone who cares, to see the depths of my mind, and everything it holds, dark or bright. Happy or sad.
Read my thoughts or leave them, they are yours to criticize.

MikesChair — Someone Worth Dying For

I heard this song in the car today.  It’s absolutely beautiful… and the video was about to make me tear up.  No joke.
It made me think of my girlfriend.  She’s not Christian… not yet at least.  I mean… she’s borderline.  After meeting me, she says she’s not sure.  I just keep praying and praying for her.  I can’t make anything happen with her and Christ.  That’s his job, but deep inside I just keep hoping and I keep praying.  The song is so beautiful and it reminded me of her.  She’s beautiful, and she’s so much more than what this world tells her she is.  There’s so much more, and I just hope she’ll see that someday…  that’s what made me tear up.

Relient K — Be My Escape

this song really speaks to me today

I had a thought today.  It made me feel sick.
What if the rapture had happened today?  What if in “the twinkling of an eye.”  All ‘christians’ disappeared. 
I thought today and then I realized… I think I’d still be here.

My life is a lie.  If you’ve ever looked at me and said, “that guy is a christian”
you were lying to yourself, much like i was lying to myself.  I try to be a Christian.  Every Christian tries to be a Christian.  But sometimes I look at myself and a thought screams in my head with a rage unbound.  HYPOCRITE!  YOU HYPOCRITE! LIAR!

Do you realize how sickening that sound feels? I feel like I’ve been shot.  My knees buckle.  I fall down.  I cry.  It’s sick.
I say things I shouldn’t say.  I think thoughts I shouldn’t think.  And I do things I shouldn’t do.  I’ve done things I wish and know I should have never done. 

I’ll sit there and talk to some people, and I’ll spat a few words about Christianity and morales and blah blah this.  And then… I can literally turn around, and be somebody completely different.  I’ve done it on here even.  I HATE IT!!!! I HATE IT SO MUCH!  It makes me want to pull something out of me that I can never reach.  I want to grind my face to the wall just so I can try and find something that hurts more then this. 

I’ll sit there, and freaking convince myself, God will forgive me for it later.
WHAT IS THAT?  WHAT. IS. THAT????

I treat God like a rental service.  I hate myself for it.  I truly hate myself.  I could be so much more, and I act like so much less.

I want to try and change it.  I mean.  God can only give so many second chances…

:/ im not sure.  when i first thought about this post, it seemed there was a brighter side to it…  now I just hate myself more.
I’ve cried so much these past few months.  I’ve made so many mistakes.

I’m sorry. For everything.  To everyone.  I’m sorry.  i don’t know.

I’m done.

Goodnight Tumblr
God Bless

I don’t deserve alot of it.  I really don’t deserve any of it.  I don’t deserve anything. 
These compliments I get.  From people I honestly hardly know.  Who hardly know me.  Not to become pandora’s box, but it takes a good bit to know me.  Don’t stereotype me…  please… i hate that.

I mean… wth… I don’t deserve alot of this.  I know nothing.  I say a few kind of words and then people just tell me how nice I am and all that stuff.  I mean I appreciate it, but I keep thinking… I don’t deserve that.  I’ve done nothing to earn it.  I’m only telling you words.  What am I really doing for anybody?  At the end of the day, it doesn’t feel like much.  I haven’t given them something that will change their life.  I haven’t taken them to somewhere that will change everything.  I haven’t removed all their problems by hand.  I’VE DONE NOTHING.  I am worthless in all honesty. 
We are so spoiled.  So many things are given to us.  And we don’t deserve any of it. 
Some do, but I mean…. me?  What do I honestly deserve? I don’t get it sometimes…

and another thing… it seems half the time I get into talks with my friends… and I end up giving them advice…. no matter how much I avoid it… which leads to all the thank yous and crap…. and I mean its not crap… I appreciate it…

just… WHY THE HELL AM I GIVING ADVICE??? XDD what the hell do I know honestly?  I feel so stupid after i say something.  I can barely keep half my own life in check, what right do I have to tell others how to run theirs? whether they ask for it or not.   its stupid of me…. i hate myself for it to be honest.

I’ve done a good job of screwing up and doing stupid stuff lately XD
… it’s not really that funny…
but if I don’t laugh at my crap… who will? :/

night Tumblr.

Demon Hunter — Driving Nails

I love this song alot.  It describes alot of the turmoil I’ve felt lately… alot of the turmoil we all feel at times… and no matter how close the solution is, we always feel like it’s miles away, and choose to ignore the truth of how close it is in our own arrogance.

Not to mention the chorus is freaking amazing.  :D
