  a big one? Well, in 30 minutes, I'm turning 18. I suppose people may be expecting some majorly contemplative entry in regards to life's ever-changing years and progressions, spawning nothing but regret and nostalgia.

Wrong. Yes, I'm glad I'm turning 18, and yes, there are memories and fears and whatever in my head, but honestly, this year I'm going to do something different.

I'm going to be simple. I'm to the age now where I could care less about expecting gifts. I'm just happy to be alive and well and part of a family that's so amazing, in a circle of friends that's so incredible, and servant to a glorious God who never ceases to amaze me.

What more could I ever want? So here I come, life.

-Jeff Carl

I heard some quote today about how the deepest thoughts usually come from the most simplistic of minds. That's what I want to strive for.
