The PLA white paper threatens peace & stability. But the freedom-loving people of #Taiwan won't give up the country's hard-earned democratic way of life. Let's be clear. #OhBear isn't in the panda family & never will be. He roams with other like-minded animals & will prevail. JW

growing up is a heavy leaf to turn

This, experienced in spontaneous talks about life on the beach, praying for each other on the streets, & jam sessions in a parking lot... God gives us rich relationships for great reasons.

I feel like: -New sunglasses -A brand new pair of jeans -Taking chances -A lot like 17 -Windows rolled down -New city streets in cabs -I don't even care if anyone sees me dancing -I can fly -A heartbeat skip -An open page -A one way trip on an airplane I could go on.

Congratulations @ItsRamiMalek 🙌🏼 Very well deserved! #bestactor #Oscars

There's a huge difference between empty fatigue and gratifying tiredness. Life is too short. Invest in the things you deeply care about. And may we all take time to pause, look around, and enjoy the journey. It's all truly grace.

yesterday a 100 year-old woman told me that if she’s still learning and making changes, that I can grow too when my foundation is the solid rock // a reminder to be teachable esp. by those who’ve experienced more of life & following Jesus

"Most people, if they have really learned to look into their own hearts, would know that they do want, and want acutely, something that cannot be had in this world. There are all sorts of things in this world that offer to give it to you, but they never quite keep their promise."

ok still waiting for @oasis to miraculously reunite though

Cage the Elephant returns with a new song on Thursday: cos.lv/OCjU30ntONp

#XiJinping : China and taiwan is one big family! Also, we’re threatening unification by force.

Forced unification is a folly. #Taiwan is a free & democratic country where #HumanRights are protected. Only its 23 million people can decide their own destiny. The leader of #China must join the rest of the global community & respect this reality.
