Welcome, welcome.

You have found your self here: on Ellie's semi-kept-up blog.

Lots of tidbits and nothingness reside here. Don't feel obligated to read anything.

If you're interested, here's a random blog I wrote (+photos) while traveling in New Zealand in 2012: newsieland.wordpress.com

With love,

Ellie

Oh, God, bring us the day when this darkness will end.

Texas and Boston, we are grieving with you.

I am so sorry.

It is sad; so deep, so bitter. This Boston bombing. The Texas fertilizer plant fire. The bombings in Iraq.

All of it.

All of the beautiful people who have felt the wrath and foolishness of another angry, possessed, and horribly lost soul.

Tonight I just feel it all. I can't stop crying. I just can't stop crying

Because the people out there - people just like me; normal people with jobs they get tired of, family they fight with - they are losing everything. Their best friends. Their legs. Their mom. Their dad. The very peace and sanity that comes with knowing safety.

Ecclesiastes says there is a time for everything under the sun. A time to laugh. And a time to mourn.

Today, oh, how we mourn.

I pray for the day we can laugh together in a place un-riddled with hatred and pain.

Oh, God, please bring us the day when this darkness will end.

Please bring us the day when this darkness will end.
