Amy and Ashton share a unique story interconnected with coincidences and surreal experiences littered along the way. The manner of their meeting was typically random. It started with them bumping into each other on a website for young writers to post their creative works, and five years later they do not miss a day without speaking. Currently co-writing a series of books within the hopes of eventually reaching publication (supernatural genre, of course), both girls had no idea that their lives would take a complete 180 turn that would urge them to see the world with different eyes for the rest of their lives.

Love Thy Neighbor



Last weekend, my Red Cross Group and I went out to a local grocery store, and stood from 8 in the morning until 6 in the evening asking for donations to give to Japan during this time of crisis. At the end of the day, just a few other kids -my age- and I, managed to raise over 1500 dollars to send to Japan; if a few kids from Texas can make a difference, you and anyone reading this certainly can.


Text "Red Cross" to 90999 to make a 10$ donation. Trust me when I say, every little bit helps.

I'll leave you all now with a quote... (his last name is wicked awesome.)


"Lend a hand to those who are frightened, lonely, or burdened. If we could look into each others hearts and understand the unique challenges each of us face, I think we could treat each other much much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance and care."

-Marvin J. Ashton


Love, light, and prayers,
Ashton
