&lt;br&gt;&lt;span&gt;
I have been accepted to go to the Ukraine this summer with Euro Team
Outreach for a 3 month short term mission. I&amp;#8217;ll be participating in the
Carpathian Mountain Outreach &amp;#8211; you can check it out online at:
www.euroteamoutreach.org/c&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="word_break"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;mo/ .  &lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="clear_center"&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&amp;#8220;The Carpathian Mountains are home to thousands of unreached
Ukrainians, living quite isolated from the modern world. In the summer
of 2008, a team of men will go to the mountains of Ukraine and preach
Jesus to those who have never heard.&amp;#8221; I feel that God has called me to
participate in this for this upcoming summer (leaving on June 3rd and
returning to the U.S. on Aug. 15th). &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
The total cost for the trip is about $5,000 (including airfare,
supplies &amp;#8211; we&amp;#8217;ll be backpacking into the mountains each week on foot,
camping out as we go! &amp;#8211; along with our living expenses while we&amp;#8217;re back
in the city of L&amp;#8217;viv). I will be raising this support from my local
church and others who are willing to support me either financially or
in prayer (or both!) during this time. &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
If there is any way that YOU&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://photo.xanga.com/Beren_C/ac754183065473/photo.html"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; could support me in this endeavor than
please get in touch with me. I am asking not just for financial
support, but also to know that I have an army of prayer warriors behind
me as I leave on this mission for Christ. Also, while I am in Ukraine,
I will be doing an update during the times I have access to the
internet, if you would be interested in that than please do not
hesitate to contact me!&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
If you have further questions, or would like to know more about this &amp;#8211;
please feel free to email me at josh (at) jdasher (dot) com.. &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
In Christ, &lt;br&gt;
Joshua Dasher&lt;/div&gt; </description><comments>http://www.xanga.com/Beren_C/651080314/item.html#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Monday, April 07, 2008</title><link>http://www.xanga.com/Beren_C/650987568/item.html</link><guid>http://www.xanga.com/Beren_C/650987568/item.html</guid><pubDate>Mon, 07 Apr 2008 15:03:08 GMT</pubDate><description>

You are walking in the woods. You are not alone. Who are you with? &lt;EM&gt;my best friend.&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;2. You are walking in the woods. You see an animal. What kind of animal? &lt;EM&gt;an eagle&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;3. What interaction takes place between you and the animal&lt;I&gt;? it cries loudly and swoops through the trees, I smile as it sails majestically by.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/I&gt;&lt;P&gt;4. You walk deeper in the woods. You enter a clearing, and before you is your dream house. How big is it? &lt;EM&gt;Large and sprawling, full of light and windows.&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;5. Is your dream house surrounded by a fence? &lt;EM&gt;No.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/EM&gt;6. You enter the house. You walk into the dining room and see the dining table, what is on it? &lt;EM&gt;A dinner, one that I helped to cook with a friend. It is warm and inviting.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/EM&gt;7. You exit the house and a cup is on the ground, what kind is it? &lt;EM&gt;It's a coffee mug.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/EM&gt;8. What do you do with the cup? &lt;EM&gt;Wash it out and fill it up with coffee.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;P&gt;9. You walk to the edge of the property and you find yourself standing at a body of water: what is it? &lt;EM&gt;A sparkling but gentle waterfall.&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;10. How will you cross the water? &lt;EM&gt;Skip from rock to rock, laughing as the spray of the water lands on my face.&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;After you copy and paste into a new entry, and answer ALL the questions above you can look down here.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;The ANSWERS&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;1. The person who you are walking in the woods with is the most important to you&lt;BR&gt;&lt;EM&gt;Okay. :) That sounds like fun.&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;2. The size of the animal is representative of your perception of the size of your problems in your life.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;EM&gt;Hmm... not big, but rather important.&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;3. The severity of the interaction you have with the animal is representative of how you deal with your problems.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Smile as they go flying by... that's appropriate.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;4. The size of your dream home is representative of the size of your ambition to solve your problems.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;I&gt;Large and sprawling with a great deal of light... that's... not very enlightening.&lt;/I&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;5. A lack of a fence is indicative of an open personality. People are welcome at all times. The presence of a fence indicates a closed personality. You'd prefer people not drop by unannounced.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;I&gt;Yeah, that works! Come in, come in!&lt;/I&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;6. If your answer did NOT include food, flowers, or people, then you are generally unhappy.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;I&gt;Mine included food and people!&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/I&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;7. The durability of the material with the cup is made of is representative of the perceived durability of your relationship.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;I&gt;Coffee mug strong. ugh.&lt;/I&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;8. What you did with the cup is representative of your attitude. &lt;SPAN style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;Fascinating... I'm... thirsty?&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;SPAN style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;9. The size of the body of water is representative of the size of your sexual desire.&lt;SPAN style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Ha...ha...ha... okay.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;10. The way you cross the water is representative to how easy or hard you expect your life to be.&lt;SPAN style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;I like life!&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;SPAN style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;</description><comments>http://www.xanga.com/Beren_C/649891699/item.html#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Ukraine</title><link>http://www.xanga.com/Beren_C/646735538/ukraine.html</link><guid>http://www.xanga.com/Beren_C/646735538/ukraine.html</guid><pubDate>Wed, 12 Mar 2008 18:59:16 GMT</pubDate><description>So some of you may have heard that I am planning to go to Europe this summer, some of you might not have, I'm really excited. I'm leaving on June the 3rd for L'viv, Ukraine where I will remain for three months. I am spending my time there in missions both within the city of L'viv there and also through-out the Carpathian Mountain Range. It will be quite the summer!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If I could ask those of you who do to keep me in your prayers it would be wonderful. A lot of things have to happen before I go, and it's also an expensive trip (about $5-6,000) and I need to come up with that money pretty much before I go. So, a lot is going on in my life! I realize I do not update my xanga all that recently, so here you guys all go!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;~Josh&lt;br&gt;</description><comments>http://www.xanga.com/Beren_C/646735538/ukraine.html#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Friday, March 07, 2008</title><link>http://www.xanga.com/Beren_C/645822158/item.html</link><guid>http://www.xanga.com/Beren_C/645822158/item.html</guid><pubDate>Fri, 07 Mar 2008 06:13:07 GMT</pubDate><description>So I'll admit that I've recently become obsessed with poetry.

O me! O life!... of the questions of these recurring;&lt;br&gt;
Of the endless trains of the faithless--of cities fill'd with the foolish;&lt;br&gt;
Of myself forever reproaching myself, (for who more foolish than I, and who more faithless?)&lt;br&gt;
Of eyes that vainly crave the light--of the objects mean--of the struggle ever renew'd;&lt;br&gt;
Of the poor results of all--of the plodding and sordid crowds I see around me;&lt;br&gt;
Of the empty and useless years of the rest--with the rest me intertwined;&lt;br&gt;
The question, O me! so sad, recurring--What good amid these, O me, O life?&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Answer.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;
That you are here--that life exists, and identity;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;
That the powerful play goes on, and you will contribute a verse.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;~Walt Whitman&lt;br&gt;&lt;br style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family: Georgia; font-style: italic;" size="1"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14pt;"&gt;I
went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, &lt;br&gt;to front only the
essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach,&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;and
not, when I came to die, to discover that I had not lived.&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I did not wish to live what was not life,
living is so dear;&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;nor did I wish to practice resignation, unless it was quite
necessary.&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I wanted to live deep and
suck out all the marrow of life, &lt;br&gt;to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put
to rout all that was not life, &lt;br&gt;to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive
life into a corner, &lt;br&gt;and reduce it to its lowest terms, and, if it proved to be
mean, &lt;br&gt;why then to get the whole and genuine meanness of it, &lt;br&gt;and publish its
meanness to the world; or if it were sublime, &lt;br&gt;to know it by experience, and to be
able to give a true account of it in my next excursion.&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;~Henry David Thoreau&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;i&gt;The ship has weather&amp;#8217;d every rack, the prize we sought is won;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;i&gt;The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,&lt;br&gt;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;i&gt;While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring:&lt;br&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;dl&gt;&lt;dd&gt;&lt;i&gt;But O heart! heart! heart!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/dd&gt;&lt;dd&gt;&lt;i&gt;O the bleeding drops of red,&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/dd&gt;&lt;dd&gt;&lt;i&gt;Where on the deck my Captain lies,&lt;/i&gt;
&lt;dl&gt;&lt;dd&gt;&lt;i&gt;Fallen cold and dead.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/dd&gt;&lt;/dl&gt;
&lt;/dd&gt;&lt;/dl&gt;
&lt;i&gt;O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;i&gt;Rise up&amp;#8212;for you the flag is flung&amp;#8212;for you the bugle trills;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;i&gt;For you bouquets and ribbon&amp;#8217;d wreaths&amp;#8212;for you the shores a-crowding;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;i&gt;For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning;&lt;/i&gt;
&lt;dl&gt;&lt;dd&gt;&lt;i&gt;Here Captain! dear father!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/dd&gt;&lt;dd&gt;&lt;i&gt;This arm beneath your head;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/dd&gt;&lt;dd&gt;&lt;i&gt;It is some dream that on the deck,&lt;/i&gt;
&lt;dl&gt;&lt;dd&gt;&lt;i&gt;You&amp;#8217;ve fallen cold and dead.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/dd&gt;&lt;/dl&gt;
&lt;/dd&gt;&lt;/dl&gt;
&lt;i&gt;My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;i&gt;My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;i&gt;The ship is anchor&amp;#8217;d safe and sound, its voyage closed and done;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;i&gt;From fearful trip, the victor ship, comes in with object won;&lt;/i&gt;
&lt;dl&gt;&lt;dd&gt;&lt;i&gt;Exult, O shores, and ring, O bells!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/dd&gt;&lt;dd&gt;&lt;i&gt;But I, with mournful tread,&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/dd&gt;&lt;dd&gt;&lt;i&gt;Walk the deck my Captain lies,&lt;/i&gt;
