Two people on a packed flight, mid-air, have been engaged in talking for some time and realizing that they have drastically different opinions about God, the Universe and from whence it came, the atmosphere has turned a bit turbulent between them. And although the plane itself glides along effortlessly in the air, the two patrons very different from each other in character, spirit and now confessed opinion seem engaged in a silent standoff waiting for the other to speak.

Hi. My name is Teresa Nash. And I am a middle-aged white woman. With a wild and crazy story about how Jesus Christ intervened in my life, save me from hell, and changed me into a better person. I have lived through a lot of pain. I have overcome many things. But not because of anything that I did. Only because Jesus Christ did it for me.

Words, as we all know, carry a certain power. They affective and have a certain effect on all of us. No matter how we strain to deny, it only goes to proof it is evidently so. Take the word "beautiful" for example. It says "pleasing the senses or mind aesthetically." And I go on to find out that "pretty" means "of a person, especially a woman or child) attractive in a delicate way without being truly beautiful." How obscure. "Attractive", on the other hand, means "pleasing or appealing to the senses." I have always questioned the choice of words as I am absolutely mindful of what it conjours. And yet these subtleties can paint a very difficult picture should one use these terms losely. Sometimes it is a matter of choice. At times, a case of utter opinion, ignorance or mere confusion. There are those who find such thoughts on the topic far out. For discourse sake, I am convinced it is essential.

My life is a collection of playful episodes.
I feel this urge to write this down. Often times i just drift in and out of reality.

And so they say that pink is not okay and you wander and wonder of the plight of those who sway and say, "What's pink got to say?" These times are new. Some say hard. But really? Not much if you start. Keep focus. Pry deep. And all that cream above will reveal what is beneath.
