i watched across the universe. it was ok. not as great as it was cracked up to be. but that's how alot of things are isn't it?

i've been reading "Searching For God Knows What" by donald miller. it's good so far. my problem is that i can't remember what about it makes it good, nor can i recall what God's said to me through it. i've come to another realization lately as well. i'm bad, no, terrible, at retaianing anything God speaks to me, and as a result of that, i feel like He doesn't, but then i remember that he does and i just have no idea what he says.

on another note, i had a rad experience with a homeless guy the other day. for the first time in my life, i ate dinner with a homeless man. he was a bit drunk. but it was rad to come together (with tim and jala) around this guy. just to encourage him and offer him help in any way we could. it's definately something that i'd like to do again, and i hope that i have the faith to do so on my own. so here's a big think you to timothy j buskey, for helping to bring that about.

those things said, i have nothing else to say,
i love you,
jake.
