Happily Ever After

Staring in the mirror makeup free
my brother Cody stares back
I can hear my mom's voice when I sing
I get things done with the energy of my dad
his exitement helps when entertaining guests
Ward's jokes and way of saying things
pop out my mouth when I am with friends
Zane shows up when I need to relax and take it easy
let go of struggle and let life peacefully happen

my family
blown apart
scattered like body parts in a war
living happily ever after in me

Hello. Only one and a half weeks left before we leave for our trip to Ibiza!! YAHOOOOOO!!
I can hardly wait. I think it is going to be an amazing time. I hope so anyway. I am working hard to get everything ready to go. Making lists of what we need to take. What I need to get from the store. Gotta stock up on some items that will be way to expensive there.
Jonah and I will be there to be kind of the mother and father figures to counsel the individuals on the teams that will be there to serve and bless the people of Ibiza. Mainly partying Brits. We will help with different projects when possible, cleaning beaches, staffing the prayer room, assisting wasted partiers, etc. We will also enjoy the beaches, clubs and atmosphere as much as possible.
Kati will come with us. It will be fun to travel and explore the island with her. I hope to grow musically and creatively. I hope to heal more emotionally, spiritually, physically and mentally. I hope to be a positive influence to anyone I come in contact with and leave the island and the people in a little better state than I found them.

We can change the world with our own two hands.
Make the world a better place with our own two hands.
-Ben Harper
