210 Entries for “holy”

  1. Holy shit! Holy has always been a funny word to me. It always makes me think of “holey”, like holey socks or holey cheese. But holy itself is a good word, too. Especially when used in expletive form.

  2. This is a word that I’m not sure how to say. I think of little Christmas balls, as well as Jesus Christ, my personal savour. Only not. Anyway, I’m going to go continue listening to a trumpet player, playing Aladin in 10 second intervals. “This is Gas-” something, from Beauty and the Beast – a movie I have not seen. I know. Stop. I also haven’t seen The Little Mermaid. Shit.

  3. holy. what is holy? is it what you’ve been taught is holy or is it what you know in your soul is holy? or is it just a word that you’ve been taught means something? it could imply that something is the most important thing there is, but then, what is a thing? what is so important about that thing that may or may not exist?

  4. for halo’s and for days set aside, a word that represents something not yet found, but forever in the process of finding. the length which people will go for something incoherent are astounding, but the places people will go to do so- outside a soldiers funeral, happy he died and claiming he is burning- are, i suppose, the tangible meaning

  5. The time to be holy is everyday, for you never know who is behind you, or what they will do.

  6. as the mighty image of his face appeared in the clouds the cast of the this life stopped with sorrow towards all that they have done, the were kinda ashamed that they have spent their life wondering if he was true or not. and now that they know they cant go back in time to relive his belief again

  8. Holy god almighty, please save me. Please turn me around. I don’t know what I’m doing here, I’ve never known. Maybe that’s for the best. Maybe I’m the reason I’m here, and that’s it, and there’s no reason. Fuck reason. Holy shit. Holy fucking shit, holy god almighty, help me out here. I just need your okay and I’ll leave this world to find me reason. I just need your word, holy shit.

  9. Holy is what it feels like when you kiss me, holy is the way you want me, holy is tjhe way I want you too. Holy is the word that describes love. Holy is the word that describes God. Couldn’t actually love be the same thing that God?

  11. “Holy fuck,” Samantha uttered under her breath, staring up at the gigantic robot towering nearly six stories high.

  12. When I was falling I thought to my self Holy Shit. I’m gonna die. This is it and I’m done.

    I miss Holy. Holydawn actually.

    Sometimes I think that we have lost the idea of holiness. Holy was an adjective that carried weight and resonance, hallowed ground was very special, revered by all. Now we have cemeteries.

    Holy is now.

  13. Radiance glowing from afar, the parishioners bowed their heads at the angelic figure stepping down from the stained glass window overlooking the alter.

    “Be not afraid,” it spoke.

    Forrest McDonald
  14. Holy, It’s funny that this should come up I think it’s God’s way of trying to give me signs. Things are exactly as they should be! What may come, what may not is all up to God alone. I will not worry I will put my faith and trust in him and him alone!

    Amanda
  15. holy mother of earth
    love what is unloved
    see what is unseen
    believe what is to be believed
    whether its God or just your dreams
    if anything
    yourself

  16. High holy hell! she yelled. My God, what are you doing here? Fuck! I thought I was alone! Jesus, Allen, don’t do sneak up on people like that! Marilyn covered up what she was doing. Allen sat down beside her. Sorry, May, he said. I was just getting lonely up at the house. Yeah, yeah, whatever, bub. Just–don’t sneak up on people, okay? Marilyn sighed. She hoped Allen hadn’t seen what she was trying so desperately to hide. Silly, really. It wasn’t all that big of a secret. She just didn’t want to have to explain it to anyone. So, what are doing out here? Allen asked. Nothing, Marilyn deflected, Just thinking. Allen said nothing back which relieved Marilyn. She knew he wasn’t really interested in what she was doing. He was looking for a way to say what he was thinking by trying to be polite.

  17. Holy Holly held her hair with horse pins and hated Hungarians and Hickory and hovering Hosiers but loved sensible shoes.

  18. Holy is a word used to describe the noble items used in a church, dealing with Christ or Jesus.

  19. he stepped into the cool shade of the holy place
    the cathedral of cool reverance.
    of stone of wood and water.
    the passage of time, of deer and bear.
    and the native people before
    their cathedral

  20. It is when you are at peace with yourself, with your Earth, with your Creator and with your neighbor…holy

  21. Holy moses, I have never seen a day like this one before. Silent, gray, sunny and hail. Hail Mary pass of weather drifting in from the Sound. Sound of music winds wailing through the streets.

  22. holy water
    holy spirit
    holier-than-thou

    i’ve washed in the first
    been touched by the second
    and watched you become the third

  23. Holy moly poly.
    The ring is in the rosy
    cheeks of the boy across
    the train tracks.

    He spits blood when
    his face smashes steel
    metal ringing behind his teeth

    Serena
  24. “No,” he said. He drifted down the length of the church like a ghost, his legs moving as if disconnected from his body. His last hope. His last safe place. This was not it–that world was gone. And what was left was cold and strange and foreign. The God of another man.
    He set himself at the alter, tipped his head to the ceiling as if

    Emily
  25. I’m not really much of a religious person. So the term holy doesn’t really mean anything to me. Holy water, I guess my friend sprinkles that around her house when it storms to protect her househould. That’s not something I’d ever do though. And then of course you have the Holy Spirit, but I’m not very partial to explaining to anyone about that. Holy, nothing I’ve ever been, nothing I’ll ever be. HOLY SHIT. That’s about the most relevent word that I can possibly thing of to suit this word properly. =]

  26. What is Holy? Is church Holy? Are preachers Holy? I think that holy is an unattainable state of mind. Many people strive for it and many people think they are there but they can never really truly BE holy. I think to be holy you have to never consider it as an option.

  27. It was the holy man sitting quietly under the tree that made me take stock of myself. If I can remain as still and peaceful as him for at least 10 minutes I know that I will calm myself down, it will no longer bother me.

  28. Holy is the most bull shit pile of shit that there ever was. also, there were holy hand grenades in a duke nukem game back in the day, i have a feeling they were the most powerful weapon. i liked that game, never played the follow up- the one with babes in the title though. anyone play that?

  29. holy god…i hate people who believe in god. but i do believe in holiness. many people i believe are holy to the greatest extent. people whom i love and care for greatly.

  30. holy cakes. what is the meaning of being holy? is it just a word? idea? thought? i have no clue. i’m not a writer, i copy others. holy i guess is the state of being good.

    i am not holy.

    i don’t even know where to begin. i have done terrible things. i dont even know what this is.

  31. when i was a hungry little boy i thought that i wanted to join the parish of my church. after all, my grandma and my ma both worked on christmassy things for the church and i really wanted to do them proud. reading up on little snippets of shit on the bible told me not to do so and now i’m in theatre. the end, and it’s good to be like me.

  32. holy holy omg what are you starting to believe? Why are you giving yourself over to this nonsensical stuff? I love to hear about cats, sometimes. i have a song stuck in my head written by a guy with TB. mmhmm, yes i do. so is my time almost up?

    Otis

    Jessica
  35. holy.
    what does it even mean?
    what is considered sacred by one,
    is also considered heresy by another.
    so the term is flawed.
    it’s not even real.
    it’s relative.
    it’s all relative.
    holy cross.
    holy mosque.
    holy lamb.
    holy sheep.
    holy shit.
    it’s all relative.
    holy.

  36. Waters rans forth from the creek in the back of our house. I washed myself in them. It washed my adolescent sins away.

  37. Holy Cow, Holy Trinity, Holy Shit. There are all so many words that holy accompanies but what is the meaning of this word holy? Is it something religious, holding a greater meaning to our soul. Or is it merely just an adjective to express a feeling of grandeur?

    Clark McCaskill
  38. god speaks to the universe … to his children … too holy for our comprehension … to perfect for us not to try to comprehend … perfectly simple. a holy God loves me … his unholy child.

    jill bennett
  39. I was never as holy as my mother would have wished. I told her that I would have become a nun. But that changed after a week or two of actually thinking for myself. Scratch that…it started after I figured out who God really was. I never wanted to be holy to begin with anyway. Holy doesn’t mean shit.
