BioI know...
I know my birth certificate says "Jessica Warner", and I know most people call me Jess, because nicknames don't seem to stick around very long. I know twenty years sounds older than I feel, and yet that's how long I've been alive. I know that doing an English degree at University sounded like a good idea at the time. I know that in reality it doesn't rain all the time in England, and that I like it here really, but I know complaining about the weather is pretty much part of our cultural identity.
I think...
I think food is the most amazing invention ever. I think that when I grow up, I still want to be Shakespeare - however I think that in ten years time I'll probably end up as a teacher. I think all plans should be flexible though, because lets face it, in ten years time I might be dead, which would call for a fairly radical reconstruction of my plans. I think sleep is not overrated. I think too much.
I believe...
I believe we were all right the first time, and we shouldn't abandon a dream on the basis of impossibility. I believe we will never know even a percent of everything, so we should routinely question what we believe - and even some things we know. I believe in death, but I believe in heaven. And I don't believe that heaven's about who's good enough to get in and who isn't, because none of us will ever be perfect. I believe heaven is about trying, starting over, and turning away from what you know is wrong, and about having somebody who's willing to pay for that wrong you've already done. I believe Jesus is that person, and is willing to help anyone who will work with him.
