So, I'm pretty much going crazy here in Oxford. The work is ri-freaking-diculous. Making me go crazy, fearing a break in the sacred 4.0. But one of my friends sent me some of these verses that are reall helping, so I thought it wouldn't hurt to post them.

2 Corinthians 4:16-18

16Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. 17For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 18So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

Ephesians 5:2
Live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

Psalms 40:11 (NIV)
Do not withhold your mercy from me, O LORD; may your love and your truth always protect me.

I Peter 3:8-9 (NLT)
Finally, all of you should be of one mind. Sympathize with each other. Love each other as brothers and sisters. Be tenderhearted, and keep a humble attitude. Don’t repay evil for evil. Don’t retaliate with insults when people insult you. Instead, pay them back with a blessing. That is what God has called you to do, and he will bless you for it.
