the better edge: procrastination rules
http://thebetteredge.blogspot.com/2010/05/procrastination-rules.html
Wednesday, May 12, 2010. Biggest procrastinator.”. Famous quote. You hear it all the time. If you’re in high school, you hear it every week. If you’re in college, you hear it every day. And, if you’re in college and it’s finals week and you’re in your school’s library, you hear it every hour—at least. And my home school, William and Mary, holds their last final today (good luck to those still finishing! Now, to my excuse as to why there was no progress on my paper before Thursday:. A design book by Micha...

the better edge: nothing is lacking
http://thebetteredge.blogspot.com/2010/08/nothing-is-lacking.html
Wednesday, August 11, 2010. I do apologize for my lack of internet presence these past two months. It is near impossible to keep up with these things while at camp. Know that it was a successful and amazing summer full of love and learning. But, more on that later…. I beg you to take an honest look around. Examine the clouds in the sky, the sun and the stars, the tree in your front yard, the spider forming a web, the mother and child shopping near you at the grocery store. As Thomas Dubay has sai...

the better edge: October 2009
http://thebetteredge.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 6, 2009. Obama, livestrong, awful music: is there any bandwagon we won’t jump on? People leave all sorts of things “at the door” — problems, emotions, baggage, shoes, etc. But, when you go see No Sunlite For The Media play live, you will leave partially explained NSFTM stories to perplexed friends at home, crappy radio music in the car at all costs (probably 99.5 if yr from D.C.) and sanity at the door (possibly yr clothes, too). Ew and Joshua’s 23rd. So here it is folks… The Jonas...

Friday, November 13, 2009. But, that isn't all. Life is just a plain bloody mess, that's all. And, people are fools." -– Hally from. Master Herold…and the Boys. A play by Athol Fugard. As much as this quote appeals to the cynic within me (while giving me a little chuckle), our generation needs to move past this shortsighted worldview, especially if we ever want to overcome the culture of death. Really, it is. “Don't you see what a mistake it would be to throw it away? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

the better edge: February 2009
http://thebetteredge.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 8, 2009. X: i've got straight edge. My life is marked by the letter X. The letter X is intense. It helps to fulfill my life; it is a personal decision. X stands for freedom. X stands for pride. X stands for straight edge. Being straight edge means living above the temptations of alcohol, smoking, and drug use. But take a step back, the straight edge lifestyle. Got the straight edge/I’m a person just like you/But I’. But, condemning the mislead decisions of peers is not the end goal. ...

the better edge: 5 reasons why my 4 days in portugal were the best of my spring break
http://thebetteredge.blogspot.com/2010/04/5-reasons-why-my-4-days-in-portugal.html
Friday, April 30, 2010. 5 reasons why my 4 days in portugal were the best of my spring break. Besides the fact that I got sick in Sevilla, so obviously Spain couldn’t be first, and I was only in two different countries for spring break, Portugal was not just a default winner. It earned its position. (. Note, I promise I am in love with Spain. See my post on La Sagrada Família. If you don’t believe me, but sometimes you just have to pick favorites). Regardless, here is why Portugal took the cake:. As been...

Thursday, January 28, 2010. I met our Mother in rome. For those of you who find North American Catholicism underemphasizing the role of the Virgin Mary in the Church, or who are put off by the extreme emphasis of Central and South American Catholicism (Myles, this is you), you need to visit ROMA, the perfect balance of all that is Mary. Rome is constantly reminding passersby of Mary’s love and faith with the Marian art that is all throughout the city. Ad Christum per Mariam. Marian Statue in Santa Maria ...
