We quite possibly were the oldest women in attendance.
It didn't matter.
No one cared, especially us.

My five favorite lines from their songs?
These:
- You're breathing the highs and lows. We call it living, in this needle and haystack life.
- This is your life. Are you who you want to be?
- The tension is here, between who you are and who you could be. The tension is here, between how it is and how it should be.
- Your love is a symphony all around me.
- On the final day I die, I want to hold my head up high, I want to tell You that I tried, to live it like a song. And when I reach the other side, I want to look You in the eye, and know that I've arrived in a world where I belong.
It was interesting to watch a Christian band (who play at Creationfest, with an audience of 15,000 enthusiastic, screaming Christians) perform in a nightclub on Granville to a much smaller (but no less enthusiastic) crowd. (Maybe 500 in attendance.) There was no 'God talk' inbetween songs, but sometimes the songs speak for themselves, no?
Now, more than ever, I have a hankering to attend another Creationfest.
Three things I'm thankful for:
1. I live in a time and place where a person can have too many housing options. Seriously. I totally know this is a first world problem
2. That last night's adventure (Richmond Night Market) (Did EVERYONE decide at 9 pm "Hey! Let's go to Richmond" because that? WAS NUTS) was fun because everyone was in a good mood.
3. My birthday wish is that my friends will help me fill up a couple jugs/jars of pennies:
Pennies are for The Last Door's family program. |
(If you have pennies to drop off, the jug/jar is on the right side of my house, as pictured below. Feel free to pop by anytime and leave them there. )
(If you live in Surrey, I'll get my mom to put a jar out on the right side of her house too.)
Thanks,
and peace be with you.
