Wow! It has been a while since my last post. I've just been a little busy. Arizona was absolutely awesome! I mean it. The Grand Canyon is really big. If you haven't been there before, please don't call it just a big ditch in the ground, 'cause it seems much more than that. I have been thinking a lot lately about "weird" and "strange." In my opinion, everyone (including me) is both strange and weird. Just fyi, according to www.dictionary.com, "weird" means "Of a strikingly odd or unusual character; strange" and "strange" means "differing from the normal." No one is really truly "normal" 'cause everyone's unique. No two people are really all that similar. I think it's amazing how God created us so that no two people are alike: everyone's different. I'm glad of that. It allows us to learn. I am a really inquisitive person. I seem to ask way to many questions. But when people tell me that, I usually ask, "How many questions is too many questions?" I'm not asking that to annoy, but to discover, to find out something that I don't already know. One person I know enjoys characterizing different people's approaches to life. They say that my outlook on life is that it's a "problem to be solved." I don't necessarily 100% agree with that, but I do agree. I actually really enjoy math. It is usually my favorite subject. I am blathering on and on and on. That is not necessarily a bad thing. It could be a good thing. I'm not sure what else to say right now, so I'll post this post and write another one later. God is good all the time, and all the time God is good.

Yay! Welcome back, Bria! I'm glad you had a good time in Arizona.
Good points on the obvious impossiblity of a standard for normal. I often think the same things. If only people would see that they are just as weird as the person they are making fun of, life would be a lot easier. What's even worse though, is that so many kids torture themselves by chasing after a nonexistent goal--to be come normal. They will never become normal because it is impossible, but they continue to strive toward it. Our generation is mired in futility and superficiality.
Keep on asking questions. Knowledge is power (though it can't compare to the power of our backer, the Lord Jesus Christ). No one learns without questioning things; think of how many questions Thomas Edison must have asked in order to do all that he did. And, he was much better off for it.
Inquisitivity...inquisitiveness...uh...
Curiousity (!) is a sign of an active mind. It means you want to know things, and that's perfectly fine. It will pay off.
Be blessed!

P.S. Math is great (or, algebra anyway)!
