Okay so here's a little about me.

Some of my favorite sayings:

" A cell phone without service is like a rootbeer without the bubbles."~Andrew

"As writers we have been chosen to walk the lonely pathways between the real and the imagined. We are charged with the task of bringing back bits and peices of hopes and dreams to fuel the fire that burns within us all."

"The moment comes when A character does or says something you hadn't thought about. At that moment he's alive and you leave it to him."~Graham Greene

"Your life is an occasion. Rise to it."

"You don't love a girl because of beauty. You love her because she sings a song that only you can understand."

"God doesn't so much choose the qualified as He qualifies the willing."(I stole this one from Andrew's old siggie.)

"Your attitude determines your altitude."

"It's horrible and wonderful at the same time! Like freedom in a cup!" ~Elliott the Deer on the subject of coffee

"To achieve great things, two things are
needed: a plan, and not quite enough time."

Where has love gone?

I had a disturbing experience recently. There was a man who came into my place of business, (For those of you who don't know, I work at a 50's style diner) who was so strung out on drugs that he could barely talk.

Anyway, he finally ordered his food and went outside to eat. I was watching him through the window and he suddenly fell forward smacking his head on the table. As soon as this happened everyone who could see him outside began to laugh saying things like, "I hope he's dead." or "If he… Continue

This song makes me cry...

This is a country song by Mark Wills. I cry almost every time I listen to it. One, because I've been the one being made fun of. Two, because I see this everyday... Where has Love gone?

Don't Laugh at Me

I'm a little boy with glasses the one they call the geek
A little girl who never smiles 'cause I've got braces on my teeth
And I know how it feels to cry myself to sleep

I'm that kid on every playground who's always chosen last
A single teenage mother tryin' to overcome my past
You don'… Continue

Just Behind the Waterfall

So, here's a little piece of my book. It hasn't been edited at all so please ignore spelling and grammar mistakes. Enjoy the story and let me know your thoughts.

Just Behind the Waterfall
by Jami Sue Farris
Foreword

Even as she slept she could sense them. Two pinpoints of light piercing her darkness. Two children. Two humans. Aglar's chosen. The only beings with the power to free her. Excitement began to slowly creep it's way through her veins.

She was Aragwath Queen of the Shadows. If she… Continue

My Heart Aches.

Something has come to my attention recently that upsets me greatly. I was talking to a friend who isn't a Christian, and she told me that I was the only Christian who had ever been nice to her. I thought it was odd for her to say that so I started paying closer attention.

For the past six months I have been watching the behavior of the "Christians" I come in contact with daily. Most of them try to avoid anyone who doesn't dress nice or that doesn't always smell nice. I even had one ask me why I… Continue

Spring!

Spring has finally come to my valley. Life is creeping back into the land. The only mark left by winter is the last few dead leaves floating lazily on the warm breeze. The flowers awaken at the touch of the sun's warm fingers. Birds announce the coming of the new season with song as they dance between the branches of the budding trees. The streams run swift and full with the life giving rains. Color has reclaimed the gray lands of the dead season. With the return of spring comes the promise of b… Continue

I recently bought a house and have been here for a little over a month now - going good, but that's what's keeping me busy. I hope to make it to the Gathering next year, but I'll have to see what it all costs before I can say for sure.

The most recent one involved walking into a multi-story apartment building filled with ostentatious crackwhores. I went in to retrieve something, and was surrounded. The crackwhores grew to be 7ft tall, and sprouted beaks and talons. They tried to...

I got one for the pro's here. How about dreams of infiltrating various establishments--colleges, lodges, corporations--with the intention of rescuing someone, only to end up bringing the entire house down.

I was going to say that to me it sounds more like a fear of old age, illness, or loss of vitality. Someone with no teeth is a poor soul, indeed.

Faith Johnson replied to Jami_Sue's discussion 'Dreams'

I have frequently had that dream. I hate it!! I always thought it had to do with my fear of the dentist. Once I would go and have my check up and get any repairs done that needed doing, I would stop having it for a long while. I hope I don't start...

Anyone have that dream where all of your teeth are falling out so fast that you have to spit them in your hand? I have it all the time =-\

Rocko replied to Jami_Sue's discussion 'Dreams'

That is breathlessly beautiful. That is everything I dream of, though I've never had a dream even remotely like that. My dreams only consist of running, demons, and harm... and I usually don't get saved until I'm on the verge of death. Either that...
