Simple Sentiments: 2015

"My name? 'Tis Nix. Nix Frost."

Her icy blue eyes pierced me.

I wrote this 6 word story the other day and it kinda inspired me to write this little story.

Her icy blue eyes pierced me. Her ivory skin was almost the color of snow. Her striking red hair whipped round and round almost as if she was apart of the winter storm. "What's your name?" I tried to shout above the wind. I shivered as I watched her come closer and closer to me. All I could think about was running from her, but I just couldn't make myself move. I felt..... entranced. She stopped right next to me I could feel her icy breath touch my skin.

"My name? 'Tis Nix. Nix Frost."

"Nix Frost. Are you from around here? I've never seen you before."

All of a sudden the storm stopped. Her eyes seemed to grow dull almost..... sad.

"Ah good sir, most of your kind do not know me." she sighed "Most know of my brother Jack."

"Oh.... I don't think I've heard of him either."

She laughed a sound like little bells in a summer breeze. I smiled.

"Now that is a shock! Everyone knows, Jack, for he the spirit of winter."

Hope y'all enjoyed!

It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year

Can you believe Christmas is in 4 days!? I can't! Christmas has always been my favorite time of year family, friends, the smells, but most of all our Savior came down as an infant baby to save us from all of our sin.

It can be hard to overlook this reason why we even celebrate Christmas. With all of the fun traditions we have it can be easy to overlook and I'm guilty of it, but this year I've really tried to grasp how AMAZING it is that God sent His one and only Son to die for us people who don't deserve it. Just think about it........ What an amazing thing.

Merry Christmas dear friends and I do hope that you have a great holiday with your friends and family! <3

Autumn Looks

Anyone excited for the cool autumn breezes, colors changing, basketball and football season, school starting (BLUH), Starbucks, Thanksgiving and of course the autumn FASHION!!!!!

Darling, I dare say the best part of fall is all of the outfits. 'Tis FABULOUS! The scarves, boots, leggings, sweaters, hoodies, and much much much more!!!

I'm going to give you a little "fashion show" tonight and I do hope you enjoy it.

(Pinterest did help a lot with this! Haha!)

Not a big fan of the boots, but a cute outfit overall.

THE SWEATER!!!!! The lace at the

bottom really adds to the whole thing!

I'm starting to get into the patterned

leggings. 'Tis just a bit out of my comfort

zone, but change can be a good thing!

I love the big scarf!!!

Oh and patterned sweaters! I'm getting into those

as well<3

Do any of my DARLING readers play a sport? Then you just might understand this pain.

I am a southern belle. I LOVE dressing up, and I DO NOT leave my house a cute outfit on. It's just not my nature, so when basketball comes around it's hard for me to let go of the dressy look. I have to find a way to look "casual" while still looking chic in the process. That's wear sweatshirts and baggy t-shirts come in.

Oversize hoodies and t-shirts I pair with skinny jeans or leggings with boots or converse and to accessorize big hooped earrings and hats. That's what I call a casual chic look. ;)

Oh just a little announcement before we depart! I'm changing my blog look and name! I'm going to try to go for a sassy, 1920s/1930s vintage look. And the name....... well I'll keep that a surprise. ;)

Hope y'all enjoyed!

Faith.......

Hi y'all! I found this argument about Is God Good? from Growin' Up Country and I thought is was amazing! Please take the time to read it.

Student vs Professor

Professor : You are a Christian, aren’t you, son ?

Student : Yes, sir.

Professor: So, you believe in GOD ?

Student : Absolutely, sir.

Professor : Is GOD good ?

Student : Sure.

Professor: Is GOD all powerful ?

Student : Yes.

Professor: My brother died of cancer even though he prayed to GOD to heal him. Most of us would attempt to help others who are ill. But GOD didn’t. How is this GOD good then? Hmm?

(Student was silent.)

Professor: You can’t answer, can you ? Let’s start again, young fella. Is GOD good?

Student : Yes.

Professor: Is satan good ?

Student : No.

Professor: Where does satan come from ?

Student : From … GOD …

Professor: That’s right. Tell me son, is there evil in this world?

Student : Yes.

Professor: Evil is everywhere, isn’t it ? And GOD did make everything. Correct?

Student : Yes.

Professor: So who created evil ?

(Student did not answer.)

Professor: Is there sickness? Immorality? Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible things exist in the world, don’t they?

Student : Yes, sir.

Professor: So, who created them ?

(Student had no answer.)

Professor: Science says you have 5 Senses you use to identify and observe the world around you. Tell me, son, have you ever seen GOD?

Student : No, sir.

Professor: Tell us if you have ever heard your GOD?

Student : No , sir.

Professor: Have you ever felt your GOD, tasted your GOD, smelt your GOD? Have you ever had any sensory perception of GOD for that matter?

Student : No, sir. I’m afraid I haven’t.

Professor: Yet you still believe in Him?

Student : Yes.

Professor : According to Empirical, Testable, Demonstrable Protocol, Science says your GOD doesn’t exist. What do you say to that, son?

Student : Nothing. I only have my faith.

Professor: Yes, faith. And that is the problem Science has.

Student : Professor, is there such a thing as heat?

Professor: Yes.

Student : And is there such a thing as cold?

Professor: Yes.

Student : No, sir. There isn’t.

(The lecture theater became very quiet with this turn of events.)

Student : Sir, you can have lots of heat, even more heat, superheat, mega heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat. But we don’t have anything called cold. We can hit 458 degrees below zero which is no heat, but we can’t go any further after that. There is no such thing as cold. Cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of heat. We cannot measure cold. Heat is energy. Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of it.

(There was pin-drop silence in the lecture theater.)

Student : What about darkness, Professor? Is there such a thing as darkness?

Professor: Yes. What is night if there isn’t darkness?

Student : You’re wrong again, sir. Darkness is the absence of something. You can have low light, normal light, bright light, flashing light. But if you have no light constantly, you have nothing and its called darkness, isn’t it? In reality, darkness isn’t. If it is, well you would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn’t you?

Professor: So what is the point you are making, young man ?

Student : Sir, my point is your philosophical premise is flawed.

Professor: Flawed ? Can you explain how?

Student : Sir, you are working on the premise of duality. You argue there is life and then there is death, a good GOD and a bad GOD. You are viewing the concept of GOD as something finite, something we can measure. Sir, Science can’t even explain a thought. It uses electricity and magnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understood either one. To view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive thing.

Death is not the opposite of life: just the absence of it. Now tell me, Professor, do you teach your students that they evolved from a monkey?

Professor: If you are referring to the natural evolutionary process, yes, of course, I do.

Student : Have you ever observed evolution with your own eyes, sir?

(The Professor shook his head with a smile, beginning to realize where the argument was going.)

Student : Since no one has ever observed the process of evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavor. Are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you not a scientist but a preacher?

(The class was in uproar.)

Student : Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the Professor’s brain?

(The class broke out into laughter. )

Student : Is there anyone here who has ever heard the Professor’s brain, felt it, touched or smelt it? No one appears to have done so. So, according to the established Rules of Empirical, Stable, Demonstrable Protocol, Science says that you have no brain, sir. With all due respect, sir, how do we then trust your lectures, sir?

(The room was silent. The Professor stared at the student, his face unfathomable.)

Professor: I guess you’ll have to take them on faith, son.

Student : That is it sir … Exactly ! The link between man & GOD is FAITH. That is all that keeps things alive and moving.

Faith........

Violinist

Hi y'all!

I found a beautiful picture of a violinist on Pinterest. Her dress had music notes flowing all over the place. The drawing was breathtaking, and I just had to see if I could draw it. It took about half and hour, but the end result was worth it. :)

I didn't do a lot of editing. I wanted to stay as natural as possible because I'm really trying to test my skills. I did, however, edit lighting and little things like that. ;)
