The problems come when it's time to put our faith in things other than the Lord. There's no doubt that other people can be tricky. But once again, it's all about listening to your heart. That don't mean you should ignore what your head's telling you. But your heart will do a much better job of helping you figure out who's good and who ain't. Who deserves your faith, and who doesn't. If you judge solely by evidence, you could wind up making some big mistakes.
Kirsten MillerSee? Youโre the crazy one, you redheaded freak. Iโve been attempting to translate the phrase into Latin. If I ever succeed, I shall make it my personal motto.
Kirsten MillerYou see, faith means listening to your heart, not just your heard. It's not about ignoring facts; it's about being willing to see around them sometimes.
Kirsten MillerI've always found that one of the biggest benefits of being a girl is that most people refuse to take you seriously. While boys must be constantly monitored and are always the first suspects when anything goes wrong, everyone expects girls to do what they're told. It may seem a little insulting at first, but low expectations can be a blessing in disuise. If you're smart, you can use people's foolishness to your own advantage. It's amazing what you can get away with when no one bothers watching.
Kirsten MillerWhat would it be like to exist in a world without suffering? To have no needs, only desires? To be surrounded by so much beauty that you forget how ugly life is for everyone else? Who wouldnโt want that? Who wouldnโt be willing to fight for it? What the alumni did to get there โ lie, cheat, steal, kill โ Iโm sure theyโd all say it was worth it. And I bet they sleep soundly because they know that their nameless, faceless victims would have done the same thing.
