Expression...

Song I wrote last night:  


"Falling Through the Cracks"

I've been busy... losing myself.
Don't know quite what to do.
So much worry, always in a hurry.
Can't stop being blue.

You don't have to worry, or be in a hurry.
Child I'm here for you.
You're stressing over something, 
when it's really nothing.

 I wish you could see what I do... I love you.

I never take a break except to have a little heartbreak.
I don't stop to breathe for real.
I don't know what to do
cuz part of me is falling through the cracks.

Time passes by and I never know quite why
I can't speak up for myself.
Life flies by, so many missed chances.
Lord I need your help.

I'm falling to pieces with a smile on my face.
I'm laughing when I should cry.
Somehow I don't know when to give up
or when I need to try.

I feel really pathetic hiding my emotions,
my talents my time, all I do.
I'm tired of being a loner, but I'm afraid of what people think.
Lord will you help me push through?

Why don't you take a break?  
Give me the load on your shoulders.
Why do you think I don't see you?

 You think I don't see you when you're crying in the corner?
You think I don't see you when you worry?

 Don't you know I smile 
when you're dancing and laughing?
Don't you know I cry 
when your heart's broken wide open?

You think you have nothing to offer,
but you have so much to offer.

 Ohhhhh, Baby Blue, Baby Blue,
what will I do with you?

Becoming New...

Good evening y'all, It has been a long day, but it has gone by fast.  Sort of ironic.  I'm sitting at home trying to get some rest from this cold that's clinging to me like a crawfish...??  I know I've been at work too long when I start sounding out words in my head that I see--like the word, Th-i-n-k-ing.  Or I start saying the words that way to adults when they ask me a question. This 2016-17 school year I am a LITERACY TUTOR in AmeriCorps.  It sounds kind of fancy when you put it that way.  I spend my days working one-on-one with about 16 different students on various reading interventions.  We work on short reading passages or blending together small words.  This also includes a lot of paperwork, data entry, prep work, bribing and coaxing via small toys, candy, and cracker items.  It should involve a lot more praise than scolding, more high-fives than head-shaking, and you get the picture.  The work is often rewarding, but also ...

Hi everybody!

Hello everybody! I've never had a blog before.   I have Facebook though.  I don't really know what to do.  If other people can comment on here feel free to ask me about my life  : )   Oh, apparently you guys can comment so that's good.              So this is Jasmine Fairbanks and I am at the Teen Mania Ministry's Honor Academy in Garden Valley, Texas which a Christian leadership school/ministry internship, basically, yet it's a lot more.  It's sort of like being on a mission trip because we are working toward spreading the gospel, but we stay in one place and reach people through the phones, etc.  I call for the Minneapolis Acquire the Fire youth conference.  Our event is on Feb. 4th & 5th, which is in like 2 weeks!  I'm excited, I get to go and help!  We'll help set up the event and with registration, etc.  This weekend is also the Housto...

Today I played soccer!!!

So today was a really good day!  I went to church, played soccer, knit a little bit, read some of my Bible, worked on some stuff, etc.  Often I worry about what I have to do instead of actually taking time to enjoy life and other people, so it was really good to do that today. I need to learn to live where I'm at. I realized that w/ playing soccer and not worrying about anything for a while was the way things should be and it was really beautiful. I was kind of the goalie and I saw the others playing, carefree and running around under the big blue sky with the sun shining down on them in the warm weather. It was such evidence of a loving God.  The sunshine looked like the rays from a smiling father beaming down on his beloved children.   God is showing me that life is good, I am blessed, He is faithful, and I can trust Him.  It's always when I give me time away or follow God into doing something that I get back so much more, like the P...
