Great News! We are in the final stretch for the rewrite of Vega’s Story: Me, Myself, and IT. I can see the end of the tunnel.
TIE-Breaker for…
The CrossFall Theme Song Tournament!
Our second round of songs is about to close, but we need 2 more people to vote to break a tie. ✌️
Click below if you haven’t chosen your favorite song. These are more ‘film quality’ cinematic versions of the song.
Plus, they’re just cool to listen to!!
Here are the lyrics for my song:
Light a candle, chase away the night,
Sing a song, and darkness will be light.
Whisper hope, everything’s all right
Whisper hope, everything’s all right.
When darkness comes
It’s all around
You think you’ve lost
No way in sight
Hope abounds
Hope returns
Hope is near
Right at your side
Hope it speaks
Hope it sings
Hope it echoes
Deep calls to deep
Light a candle, chase away the night,
Sing a song, and darkness will be light.
Whisper hope, everything’s all right
Whisper hope, everything’s all right.
In light of this, CrossFall merges with this song within this Bible verse: We rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us. Romans 5:3-5
God bless you!

From the Desk of Darlene N. Böcek Faith-building Sci-fi Fantasy Stories Reader**– Research can sometimes put you in a worse place. Let’s talk about the Earwig. The other day friends and I were discussing how REPULSED we are by earwigs. And we asked the common question–Do earwigs actually crawl into ears? Then we made the interesting observation. The earwig is called kulağakaçan in Turkish. That means the-one-that-runs-into-the-ear. We wondered why both Turkish and English uses practically…
