Escapading

Mariya and I had a just the two of us date on Sunday that I thought deserved a blog post full of photos from the documentation of our adventure. We started off at Dolce Gelato in downtown Vancouver where we lunched on some paninis and salads. We then made our way to Savona by the Columbia where we went walking and took some pictures. After that we went shopping at Walmart and then we ended up at Vintage Books where I scored two beautiful copies of stunning classics. I walked away with Great Expectations by Dickens and Wuthering Heights by Bronte. I was very satisfied with my find. And finally Mariya and I hung out at my place until it was time to go to the college service. Enjoy the pics.

What is baffling for me is that the devil can give me so much doubt and discontentment even in situations that I know are right for my life. I realized that there won't be a moment in my life where I will be perfectly content and be absolutely happy about every aspect in my life- not without a fight at least. Reading this book has showed me how actively I have to fight every day to stay alert and listen to the voice of God and tell myself truth instead of listening to the lies that the devil tries ...
