For Narnia, and for Aslan!

Hey guys! I'm back!! I told you I wouldn't forget about this blog! It only been ten day since my last post, but it feels like it's been 3 weeks!


So, for today, I wanted to talk about Narnia, kinda like a review. Not a what happened in the series, but how it makes me feel. And what it makes me think. Just in case any of my readers have been unlucky enough to have never read Narnia books. So here I go! I hope you enjoy!


So, I think I'll talk about The lion, The witch, And the wardrobe.

This book, nay, this world of imagination, which is what I think books should be called, anyway, this 'book' is amazing. C.S.lewis is amazing.

The book, it helped me understand Jesus a tad bit better. If that makes any sense. 

Like, the book brings you into another world. You can just connect with the characters. C.S. Lewis  paints a picture with his words.  It is one of the stories that manages to give you pleasure, and teach you a lesson! And, you can tell, that God wanted him to write that book, just the way he did.

I wish I was more like Lucy. With so much faith.

People always say they wish they could go to Narnia, but, the truth is, they can, in a way. For, I believe heaven will be like Narnia, just a hundred times better, and without any wars or villains.

To all the people who love Aslan for sacrificing himself,  if you do not already, you should know. That Jesus Christ did that. C.S.Lewis was Writing about Jesus, without directly writing about him.

So, I guess that kinda sums it up, i hardly wrote anything! it is kind of hard to exactly express how books make me feel. I know I'm not the best at 'reviews' but thank you for baring with me!




                                                    









And so, I end with a quote from Narnia ~ “I am [in your world].’ said Aslan. ‘But there I have another name. You must learn to know me by that name. This was the very reason why you were brought to Narnia, that by knowing me here for a little, you may know me better there.”
― C.S. Lewis, The Chronicles of Narnia

Love, your friend

It makes me happy

Image
            You know what makes me happy? We have these sunflower seeds that we got for the chickens we have. Sometimes I take a handful and throw them around the yard near the window beside the spot where I do almost all my school, that way birds will come and eat the seeds. So when I look out my window during school hours I sometimes see 1 to 8( or some, idk xD) birds there, and it's so lovely.they are so brightly colored, and sometimes they sing.       I wish I could whistle like a bird, one of my many brothers can whistle a lot like a mourning dove. Anyway, the birds just kind of fill me with happiness and peace.and if I look up from the ground I see the  neighbors yard. It looks so beautiful with all the new, freshly colored leaves and the flowers blooming there. it's all just too wonderful. Spring is an amazing thing.      Isn't it nice that God has made so many beautiful things for us to enjoy? Imagine a world without birds? or dogs? Or books!! Or families that lov

I entered a writing contest today. and holy moly I am nervous!  Especially after reading my entry, because I saw thing i want to change but I've already sent it in! i will give you the story exactly like it was when i sent it in though  I really want to get 3rd place or an honorable mention , ( there is no way i can get 2nd or 1st ) I have never had my writing judged by real judges before so i am kinda dying. But I think my storey is good.       Anyway, here is the link to the monday minute challenge, you guys should enter! Okay, so they give you things you have to incorporate in your story, you can use one, or all of them, but you have to have at least one in your story. I only used one, a mirror. My submission is 225 words Revealing Reflection        In its reflection, I saw myself as I really was. I remembered as I looked at my myself now, how I used to feel when I looked into a mirror, I was always left dissatisfied, and hurt. “I wasn’t pretty enough, I had too many freckl

Summer Changes.

Summer seems to be drifting away. These past months have seemed strangely empty. I say strangely because I have been doing many things!          I went on the most amazing week long Catholic retreat. The talks were so inspirational and helped me with so many things. We had a day of silence, and though I confess that I was not always silent the times that were quiet really moved me. I was not looking forward to the silence as I find it hard to not talk xD. But I really think some of my best memories were from that silently wonderful day. (We had an hour of adoration in the chapel at 11 pm <3)           I also assisted with a kids program at church and that was really fun, attended a dance and experienced our first staycation. As well as that, in the beginning of summer, there was play practice. But once the first retreat ended not much happened. Only lots of book reading and Tutus Tuus. Of course, it has been a wonderful summer despite the lack of crazy activity. Being with m
