Life in general has been one of my interests.
Besides life, there is: dreaming,
flying,
writing poetry & lyrics,
GOD,
digital photography,
nature,
rain,
sailing,
archery,
reading,
art,
acting & theater,
singing,
playing the piano,
worshipping God,
listening to music,
science,
etc.
God, face to face in all his glory, anybody who loves God with a passion, like I do, someone who has allowed God to use them in a mighty way, and anyone who honestly knows what they're talking about.

of course, the Bible--it's the only book really worth reading.
Jesus Christ is my hero. He was willing to give His life for me so that I could live. If your hero is just someone who did something cool, ask yourself, "Would they be willing to lay down their life for me?"

This should be updated everyday, but if, in fact, it is not, forgive me.
It may only get out at least once a week. Who knows what tomorrow will bring?

"Song of Myself: Colleen Elizabeth Young"
I am a child of God
Called according to His purpose
He has a plan for me
My name was set in heaven
Before the beginning of time
His thoughts were on me
I alone was on His mind
He planned what I would do in this world
He set me in His perfect time
To give Him glory
And do what he had ordained me to do
He knew what I would need
And when I would need it
He placed it and provided for it
To be there when I would need it the most
He gave me gifts and abilities
So that I alone could give Him glory
He gave me a voice and a song
He gave me a heart and a will
To do His perfect will
He gave me a mind
To dream to create
To write His word
That the world would need
He gave me a love to love the unloved
And a sight to see the secrets of His Spirit
He gave me a joy that could be
Given to all around me
He gave me a peace to calm
The world when it seemed that there was no hope
I always wondered why I was not
Born in another time or in a different place
"I placed you in this place to be a light
That shows My face in the darkness of this time
Were you born before
You would be out of place
I never make mistakes so don’t worry
About what goes on around you
I have you in My hand and I will never let you go
I love you more than you could ever know
I do not neglect you and I always see you
And I have never left you alone
I will always be near you if you never leave me
Don’t forget My promises and My will and plans for you
Let them guide you in this life to do what I have called you to"
