Anonymous asked: I saw your new video pop up on my YouTube Subscription e-mail after not being very active on YouTube for awhile. After which, I missed your voice in your older songs too and there were two that stood out (that I don't see anymore). You had a Damien Rice cover and a Juan Gonzalez cover. Is there any possible way for you to repost these or get them to me? Or possibly re-record them? I...

have a little faith in me,
Here i am on a friday morning, drinking tea & eating dry cheerios at the studio. I won’t be recording until Sunday, but i’m here today until early afternoon to just hang out and log in some hours (as part of my music program). Of all places to gather my thoughts and express them, the recording studio seems to have become my sanctum as of late. Since January, i think i’ve seen...

“I love you, I know this must come as something of a surprise, since all I’ve ever done is scorn you and degrade you and taunt you, but I have loved you for several hours now, and every second, more. I thought an hour ago that I loved you more than any woman has ever loved a man, but a half hour after that I knew that what I felt before was nothing compared to what I felt then. But ten...

tip of the day:
careful when purchasing great deals like “The Kite Runner” on DVD at Value Village for $3… You’ll later find out that it was manufactured in another region (Europe, Australia) than the current one you have set on your computer (North America) - thus, not allowing you to watch it (without changing the region…which i’m not willing to do) sigh.
avenueflorida asked: Hi Marika! I've been a follower of your youtube channel for a couple of years now and I literally L.O.V.E. the way you sing! Very inspiring tumblr as well! I speak French, and I just wanted to tell you that it's "une chanson jamais entendue". It's really cute written like this though :) Greetings from Belgium, Tatiana

The Help,
went and saw this tonight with a girlfriend - i can’t remember the last time i genuinely cried in the movie theatre. It had perfect balances of sensitivity & boldness, intensity & comic relief, independence & sacrifice. It truly was a lovely film, sigh.

the miracle of belief,
“My speech and my preaching was not with enticing words.” 1 Corinthians 2:1-5
Paul was a scholar and an orator of the first rank; he is not speaking out of abject humility; but saying that he would veil the power of God if, when he preached the gospel, he impressed people with his “excellency of speech.” Belief in Jesus is a miracle produced only by the efficacy of...

“mommy, there’s a lion roaring outside my bedroom window!” and little did i know, i was right. With a presence like yours, you must be aware that nothing stands a chance against it. Sometimes you’d seem so close; the walls of my home trembled, the windows panes shook like a pair of nervous knees. And when you opened your mouth, light emanated throughout every corner of...
