40 Day Revolution

March 11 2008
We are taking on the 40 Day Revolution at my church mostly with our youth group. A lot of the things have to do with school, but since we aren't in school I'm asking all of you guys to pray for our or your schools. Pray for all the issues at our schools. Ask God to help the spiritual climate of our schools.

HAPPY

just think back a little

March 08 2008

last year today what were you doing?

well some of you were totally stoked about going to Hawaii with the mime team.  Yes, that is right tomorrow will be one year since we went here the first time.  Its kinda crazy how everything has changed since then and its only been 1 year. 

well just thought i would remind you guys

Easier!

March 08 2008

i found when you look for an easier way out to problems the problems will come back to you.

 when I start to accept my responsibilties , and prepare to what i have to, i really find a lot gets easier.

 things get easier when i am determined to get it done anyways, and im not looking for it to.

 

Happy Birthday to Me!!!

March 08 2008

So today is my birthday, and I turned fifteen. I guess it's pretty cool that it snowed on my birthday except it messed things up a little bit. It was fifteen years ago today that I was born...and it was snowing really heavy. I think that's pretty cool. Other than that it just seems like any other day. I don't feel any older. I don't get any presents today. My did get me a brownie cake though which was really tasty. Oh, and Keri and Batey called me and sang Happy Birthday to me which made me happy. I thought everyone had forgot it was birthday today. I remember in sixth grade I did forget it was birthday. I was at Leslie Littleton's birthday party, and I just totally forgot. Sad, I know. Overall, I guess I've had an OK birthday this year. At least I'm here to 'celebrate' it.

 Prayer Requests

  • My dad
  • My cousin
  • My youth group
  • The guy I wrote about in an earlier thought
  • All my friends traveling while on Spring Break
  • Unspoken
  • That my birthday party works out

    God is Always in Control

    March 08 2008
    I was on my way back home from Nashville yesterday and somebody with road rage decided to bump my car from behind. The speed limit on the interstate was supposed to be 70mph, but I was going 80 to make room between me and that crazy driver.

    There were only two lanes and the lane next to me was free, but the driver didn't move over. So I moved over to let that person pass, but instead they moved over behind me. I moved over again...to let them pass, but they moved over behind me again. I sped up to 90 mph and the other driver did the same. The whole time this was going on, it was raining heavily and I could barely see out the window. Next thing I know, the driver sped up to 100 mph and changed lanes only to ram into my car on the right side...running me of the road. Luckily there wasn't a wall there or any on comming traffic...but there was this field of grass there.

    When they rammed into my car, they broke my headlights...making it worse for me to see out the window...and since the right side of the car got damaged pretty bad, it cut into my tires on the right side and blew them out. I am so glad that God is always in control, because the car should have flipped over several times, but instead it didn't. I should have been pulled over by a cop for driving without any lights...and with 2 flat tires, but instead God's grace prevaled again. I made it back to MTSU on two blown tires and no headlights...in the pouring rain...heavy rain, without even being pulled over by the police.

    My caution lights were even broken and yet I was safe the whole trip back to MTSU...

    it was supposed to have this song.

    Crappy video but for what its worth...

    March 07 2008

    Wow so like I thought I had this perfect thing planned out. Erin was going to come over tonight and meet my mom. Then tomorrow mom and I were going to head to N.C. My old "home." Well everything kinda got screwed up. Because of ice I will not be able to see Erin or my mom tonight. My mother got stuck out side of Memphis and is in a hotel for the night. She will be picking me up tomorrow at 8ish. Arriving in NC much later than previously planned. Erin did not get to come over because of ice as well. Kind of dissapointing but I guess that is life. I am some what tired though of letting myself get excited or hopes up about something. It has happened too many times and I am annoyed at being let down. I don't understand I had such a high gaurd but eventually I let it down...silly. I told myself that there is no reason to be hurt because of a person, still is. I won't let it happen again though.

     

    note: not the song of the week.  

    Can't I just have one day?

    March 07 2008
    So right now I'm extremely frustrated. There is not one day that I can have my birthday party where everyone can be there. And even though I know I can't control the weather or other things, I feel like it's my fault. My mom told me that I can't please everyone, but she failed to mention that the birthday girl is not pleased right now. I just wanted one day where all my friends could be there, but that just seems impossible to do. So I don't know what to do. I guess I'll just have my party next week and whoever comes comes. Hopefully things will be fun, but I don't know. :-(

    For some odd reason....

    March 07 2008

    I've been reading some very unique books lately. If any of you have read Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights you know what I mean. They make you think it such a....um, unusual way. I really think that the people that wrote them were not right in their head when they did. They have some misconcepts about....well, a lot of things. 

     I have been reading a book about apologetics. I've realized that I need to know more about things like that. I'm also gonna start reading "The Case for Christ" which seems like it will be really good book.  I've already read "Mere Christianity" but didn't like that all that much. I'm starting figure out exactly what I believe and why. I've realized working at Kohl's that the people I'm around will not always agree with what I believe. Which is ok. But, I want to make a mark on their life. I want them to know when they walk away that I'm different. I've always been around people who were "like minded" but now I'm not. It's pushing me to know withut a doubt what I believe kinda like what 1 Peter 3:15-16: "But in your hearts set apart Christ the Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed for their slander." That is my goal. 

     Revival at DFA has definitely helped that. I'm learning to lean on God more than anything else. Something Pastor Steve said on Sunday night really got me thinking. He said that we need to rend our hearts to open to God. We need to become so desperate for God that we can't live without Him. That's were I totally want to be. And I'm starting to get there. : )

    Ha life is so funny. I mean really, sit back and look at your life.......now that you've done this, did you think you would end up where you are? I sure as heck didn't think i would be where i am. Where am i? you ask...(if you didn't ask..to bad your gonna find out :P) I am sitting in a chair at the computer..rather cold but deeper then that i'm slipping and moving forward at the same time. Its rather weird..i mean everytime i hear or read something about my EXBestFriend / EXboyfriend life is the one thing i dont want, no lie i stop breathing and die a little more. But when i'm with anyone else or at church i'm a whole other person. I laugh and smile and really mean it. At times i'm moving forward in Christ, i finally found where i need to be and i have an idea where i need to be and people NEED me. It always feels good to be NEEDED. And yet again i'm crushed b/c someone that makes me smile...has let me down...and my mom is always on my case for not being who she wants me to be. You know what i need...you guessed it..a girls night with FLINT! :P Face paint...laughing..randomness! sounds like a party! :P hahaWell yeah now that this is overly long and no one will read all this so i better just close it off and say sorry for not making you smile today..i'll try better next time.

    maybe i should be more altruistic?

    March 06 2008

    hhmmm.... what do you think about altruistic people?

    Talking to a friend.

    March 06 2008
    Pretty Pointless and not that worth your time. God and I have had a kind of weird relationship. I am not completly sure where I am at with him all the time. I am not talking about if I am saved or not but just who he is and who I am. I never mention God much at all during the day and I am fine with that. I don't call myself christian, because I hate most christians. They are so frigging judgemetnal, hypocritical, fake, and liars. The best part about it is that they don't even notice it. I know i just describbed a lot of my christian friends. But any way this is not a rant. God and I have just kinda been like two really good friends that grew apart. We talk about hanging out more but then I just blow it off. Truth is I didn't care all that much. Now I see and understand that God wasn't just wasting air when he said "hey lets get together some time." It took a lot of pain to realize that. Now I am being pushed to be this leader that I know I can be and I now understand why God wanted to hang out more. God has this certain will that WILL get done. I realized that he will try to prepare you for what is going to happen but if you don't listen you will have to prepare yourself, because it is going to happen. Before and really still, I won't talk about God. I know that I am not really at the place to be a representative to him, not yet. I have been changing like crazy to get there. Ya know I learned that it is not good at all to be a different person in different places. A lot of you who see me at school know that I am not the same at school. I say a lot of things I would not normallly say but that is what God has really been working with me about. With a little more work and sweat I will be the man God wants me to be.

    A Couple of Good Days

    March 03 2008

    Soo. I'm a little bored, and I though I'd write(type) about the last couple or three days.

     

    Saturday: Was a blast. I spent almost the whole day by myself, and sometimes that's nice. It was a lovely day, and when I got up, I found Momma organizing the closets. YIKES. That definitely meant I needed to spend the day outside. So I did my chores, grabbed my knife, a gun, flint and steel and some string, and went on my merry way. I decided that I would just chill in the woods, and see if I could kill anything and eat it(I'm particularly fond of squirrels). First off, I went down to the pond and decided to try to catch a fish. So I cut off about six feet of string, whittled a fish hook, and went to look for some bait. Rotten logs are usually good places to find grubs, so I found a log, rolled it over, and found a salamander instead of the grub I was expecting. I reckoned he would be good bait, so I caught him and cut off his head. Trot line in place, I went to look for some meat. I went around beating the brush, and scared up a couple of cottontails, but they always seemed to be running toward the house. I couldn't shoot in that direction, so I decided to build a rabbit trap. I've been trapping rabbits with Curtis for years, and so I went to the house for a shovel, and built one. There really wasn't much to do but wait, and so I Just whittled and shot at trees to pass the time, but eventually, I had to go in and go to bed.

     

    Sunday: I stayed home from Church because my brother was going to call from boot camp, and someone had to be there to take down his address. So I got up early that morning, and it was a lovely Spring day again, so I sat outside under a tree and read my Bible for about an hour. Then I went inside and cooked breakfast, and stumbled my way through a few hymns on the piano. It was really a great time, and I realized how much emphasis we put on church for Church's sake. Then I just read, and played the Fiddle until Curtis called. They only let him talk for three minutes, but it was good to talk to him. It took that long just to get his address, so I didn't get any details about boot camp, but it made me realize how much I miss him. Pretty soon after that, I went to bed.

     

    So now you've had a look at my EXTREMELY exciting life. Happy Birthday.

     

    You need no one to spin your revolver

    March 03 2008

    Yep. 18. Older.

     

    Now all I have to do is graduate. Then I'm outta here. 

    Bored is fun

    March 03 2008
    lol wow we are so amaZingly weird :P

    [it's been a while...]

    March 02 2008

    well.

    my granddad is home now. and doing a lot better. 

    we're still praying for a full recovery.

     

     since last post, i've been a little better i guess..just learning to live with stress and pain. i never knew i would miss my aunt this much after 9 months. i mean, i honestly wasn't even that close with her...and maybe that's my problem? i don't know. things have been really tough for me since then.

     

     i went to a linkin park/coheed and cambria/chiodos concert last week. it was a lot of fun...and the concert was amazing. getting out of the house was the best part though, not to mention it was all paid for my a friend. :]

     

    but yeah...i think i'll go for now.

    maybe i'll update more often....haha.

     

    seriously though, keep me in your prayers still...

    i'm definitely not out of my storm yet. :/

     

    love you guys.

    [becca] 

     

    so amazing

    March 02 2008

    Our youth conference this weekend was so amazing. Probably one of the best ever. During our sermon yesterday, the preacher talked about what has really bothering me the past year. He talked about how so many Christians, me being one of them, are 'empty suits'. We have the appearance of a Chritian, but we aren't living it outside of church.

    having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from those people turn away!

    2 Timonthy 3:5

     

    Last night and well into the early hours of this morning, our room talked about what the sermon meant to us. Two of the guys came to say goodnight and ended up staying in our room until about one in the morning. What started out almost getting us in to trouble, ended up being one of the revivals ever. One of the guys paticular, I really honestly feel like God spoke to him last night, and is going to continue to work on him. We aren't really best friends, but I've known him for a pretty long time. As we were talking about things he's done wrong, he actually began to cry. I felt bad at first because I was practically yelling at him, but now I feel like it made him realize he needs to really surrender his life to the Lord. I just want to ask everyone to pray for him and the rest of my youth group. Last night we found out a lot about some of the people in our youth group, and we really need some help. Just pray that we will all stop being 'empty suits' and really do something. 

     

    theres a life to live when im awake! :)

    March 02 2008

    2 songs called "what's this life for" & "higher" by Creed inspired me...  
    "i see your soul its kind of gray, you see my heart
              you look away."-whats this life for?
       " at sunrise i fight to stay asleep,
    cuz i dont wanna leave the comfort of this place."-higher


       Will i be ashamed when you see my heart, or will you know it's there from the start...
     Is it better to hide my deepest sins or confess them when they first begin.
    If I tell of my struggles you'll know i'm not strong,
     but will everything you've ever known of me be shaken
    if it all hits you one day?
     I don't wanna leave my comfort place, I rather just get away from just another day!
     but is that fear in me? is fear okay to be scared of?
    take me higher, but will you even touch my hand after you see me fall?
     is it stronger to hide it all, or is it stronger to
    show all the falls & scars....

    Have you ever wondered why we want the people we cant have and that we have the people that we really dont want? I really like this guy NOW and i come to find out that my chance has come and passed. Okay he used to really like me but i wasnt ready for a relashionship with him and i didnt really like him that mmuch then well i kinda did but i was scared to go further with him and of course when he asked me out i said no BIG MISTAKE, and now that he doesnt like me that much anymore i really really like him and i just dont know how im gonna get over him i really want to but for some reason i just CANT i used to think it would be easy to just STOP liking someone but i've come to find out that its not that easy, you cant just make your life come to a halt and stop loving someone ( can you ? ) Well i dont know truthfully i dont think i ever will but somehow it will work its way out i hope! ( advise please )

    " if my heart has been enticed by a [man]or if i have lurked at my neighbors door, then may my [husband] grind another [woman]'s grain and may other women sleep with him."

    Job 31:9-10

      i read this the other day & thought wow! i never thought of it like that, so that is my prayer to God , not just the lust factor of my life but including it too, may that my thoughts , the way i treat people, the thoughts i think in a wrong sense may it be done to me also. 

    Brought me to tears.

    February 28 2008
    There are very few things that bring me to tears these days. Infact only about 3: "Saving Priviate Ryan," A good Scrubs episode, and this last spot is open to whatever happens to do it at the time (wich is a very narrow spot). Now as you can tell I don't have a tear in my eyes very often, why is that you ask? It is not because I am a guy because I know plenty of guys that cry, and I am one of them...if it fits my requirement. But this time it was because I let my self get caught off gaurd in a deep wonder. I wonder if that gatorade and one can of soup will keep them both warm, I wonder if they will get what they need to make it through the night on the side of the street. I wonder if they really tried in life or if this is just a cop-out. I wonder how long it will take for another person like us to stop and give what they have. It doesn't have to be much but do a selfless act for once you self-rightous pricks. Maybe that is why I don't have tears in my eyes as much, this world full of disgusting, and self centered peices of crap. I can't believe some people.

    "Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
    And sorry I could not travel both
    And be one traveler, long I stood
    And looked down one as far as I could
    To where it bent in the undergrowth.

    Then took the other, as just as fair,
    And having perhaps the better claim,
    Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
    Though as for that the passing there
    Had worn them really about the same.

    And both that morning equally lay
    In leaves no step had trodden black.
    Oh, I kept the first for another day!
    Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
    I doubted if I should ever come back.

    I shall be telling this with a sigh
    Somewhere ages and ages hence:
    Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
    I took the one less traveled by,
    And that has made all the difference."

     

    my favorite poem, random.

    but i saw it.

    and it made me smile.

    February 26 2008

    It's kind of funny how when you hear other people say some of the very things you've said yourself, you realize how silly it sounds, or at least you realize there's something wrong with the statement.

     

    Over the weekend, I worked with 8th grade girls for One Weekend. And it really struck me Saturday night when they were talking about how they approach prayer, and what they talk to God about. And let me just preface my next sentence by saying that I am a terrible example of how a Christian's prayer life should be, but hearing what they said really hit me. While they were talking about what they talk to God about I asked them, "When y'all pray, do y'all do all the talking?"

     

    "Well yeah," they replied, like what else was supposed to happen?

     

    "Do y'all realize that prayer is a conversation with God, and you need to hear what He's saying?"

     

    I could tell that resonated with the girls, and it resonated with me too, because I'm just the same as them. I rarely ever sit still long enough to listen to His voice. But it only makes sense that He would talk back to me, because a relationship does not fall on the shoulders of one individual.  

     

    And you know, maybe if I took the time to actually carry a true conversation with God, I would realize some things so much sooner than I do. A perfect example would be the fact that I just had to back out of AO's Spring Break trip to New York, because I realized that I couldn't do that and so many other things I needed to plus maintain rest and communion with God. It was way too much and I've been wearing myself too thin as it is.

     

    So I did as what Jerel calls, "laying the fleece out", and asked God that if I wasn't supposed to go, to please quickly find someone to take my place. So I told Hodge how I felt and boom - next day, I was replaced. Just like that. And while I paid like $200 and don't get to go, someone else gets to go for free, and to them, that may be a huge blessing. And just knowing that makes me feel better. If I had listened long ago, I wouldn't have been in this situation, but thank God I finally did listen, and thank God that someone else is being blessed. And it will be so nice to finally have a week to rest. 

     

    Changing the subject, I've been to many Disciple Now events, whether it was Journey at my church in Houston or One Weekend at Belle Aire. I've gone to one every year since sixth grade, even during my college years since I've been a leader, totaling to ten of these things. The one that really truly sticks out in my mind more than any other is from my freshman year of high school.

     

    That weekend we reflected on John 15, and how it is vital to abide in Christ. Our speaker for the weekend was Clayton King, and I remember him talking about how if we are to bear fruit for Christ, we have to be prunned (trimmed) and that can hurt! But it's so important. And I was able to mention that to my girls this weekend, and it was just neat to see what a resonating theme that is. As a Christian, we're going to go through fiery furnaces, and we may be rescued and we may not, but abiding is essential, and when we're focused on Christ and His purpose, then we are exactly where we need to be. It's easy to get comfortable where we are. But as I type, I can see out of the corner of my eye some pictures from M-Fuge this summer, and I remember that I'm not supposed to be comfortable in my set ways. I'm supposed to be glorifying Him. 

     

    But you know what's really great about that? It doesn't mean I always have to go on mission trips, just as I'm learning this year. Sometimes it means resting in Him and hearing what He has to say. And I hope I don't miss that this next week.  

    hmmm?

    "Desperate for changing,

    starving for truth.

    I'm closer than where I started

    chasing after you.

    I've fallen even more in love with you

    letting go of all I've held on to

    I'm standing here until you make me move

    just hanging by a moment here with you."

    -life house-

    "hanging by a moment"

     

    goshhh.

    i'm ready to give up...

    i'm tired of hurting and longing for comfort.

    it's annoying to think you're gonna

    have your old life back when you

    wake up in the morning but in reality your not.

    But the brightside is i'm dealibng with it.

    kinda?

    i need a chill pill

    February 26 2008
    So something has to be seriously wrong with me. I'm already stressing about next school year. I'm already worried about failing algebra II honors. The only thing is I know as I hadn't taken it that I would have regretted it. I'm still waiting for the regret of taking it. Sometimes I just wish I could be a stupid person and not care about my grades, but then I wouldn't get anywhere life which is definately not good. At this point in time I plan on relearning everything from eighth grade in algebra I this summer to get ready for algebra II, and I'm most likely going to have my head in a book twenty-four seven next year studying. My friends tried to get my to take regular algebra, but my mom really wanted to take honors. She also said the ultimate decision was up to me, but I just didn't want to let her down. Sometimes it feels like its more stressful coming from a dumb family then a long line of super geniuses because I'm the first person to come along that even has a chance of being something important. So if I mess this up, everyone's going to be really dissapointed. Other times though it seems like my parents don't really care how well I do in school. I mean they do, but I guess it feels like they just assume I'm going to make good grades. Which most of the time I usually do, but when I don't do so well I don't know how to tell them. I just wish I could be smart. I mean I know I'm smart, but I mean really smart so I wouldn't have to worry about my grades, but unfortunately I'm not so I have to turn to writing about on here which you guys probably really don't care. So yeah, how has your day been?

    Would You Improv for God?

    February 25 2008

    Would You Improv for God?

    Are you one of the 5 Million + viewers who have checked out the 'Frozen Grand Central Station' You Tube video? If you haven't checked it out- here's the link.

    If you have seen it, you probably had some of the same reactions as I did. It's both fascinating and freaky weird as you see 200 improv actors simultaneously freeze in place at one of the busiest places on planet earth. They are 'frozen' in mid-step, picking up papers, and all of them have obviously been trained well to stay as motionless as possible.

    I'm sure the stunt brought mixed reviews. You could see that some were annoyed (i.e., those with little to no sense of humor) - and others were probably convinced the aliens had finally landed and commenced with their global body snatching plan (i.e., those with way too much free time).

    Would you ever do something like that? I think I might enjoy being part of a harmless public stunt - except of course in Grand Central Station, where I'm pretty sure you'd get your wallet or purse stolen if you froze for even 5 seconds.

    It seems to me that most people just go about the daily grind with little outside thought until something creative and radical happens. It also seems to me that this is true in a spiritual sense with your friends who don't know Christ as well. Sure, maybe you've had a few 'talks' about God, but after a while it gets in a rut, and you never seem to get beyond a certain point - right?

    Ah - but this video gives me an idea that just might help you in this area. No, freezing in place in a crowded public area is not what I had in mind, but doing something creative and radical for God publicly in front of your friends is one of the best 'rut killers' around. For most people these days, the God talk tends to remain just that...talk...that is until it's backed up with radical action.

    And it's not like this is a new plan or anything. It's actually one of the primary strategies that people in the Bible have used for centuries. Here's a short list:

    Noah - built a gihugical boat. How is that radical? Well, since it had probably never rained or flooded before, the entire population of the world thought Noah was one French fry short of a Happy Meal. But aren't you glad he went ahead with his public project? Yep, he saved civilization.

    Joseph - dared to tell the Pharaoh of Egypt that he could interpret dreams. If he blew it, he'd be toast inside a few seconds. But he went ahead with the triple dog dare, and - oh yes, saved civilization.

    Daniel - threw open the shutters of his home and prayed to the God that was despised by the all his neighbors - even though it could bring him the death penalty. And it did. Only instead of death, he gained some new furry friends in the lion's den.

    I could go on and on - but do you know who completed the most radical and life changing public act of all time? You guessed it - God Himself. He was so desperate and crazy in love with the people of planet earth that He came down here wrapped in flesh. He lived a perfect public (and private) life, led a miraculous public ministry (can you say feeding 5000 folks from 5 loaves of bread and two sardines?), and of course, He died one of the most cruel - and public- deaths that you could ever imagine. Oh yeah, then He came back from the grave and appeared in public to over 500 people in 40 days.

    Talk about a radical and creative way to get people's attention for God!

    And it worked. Now it's your turn. Auction off your iPod to give money to the poor, skip a movie and volunteer at a homeless shelter. Start a public blog that does nothing but investigate the claims of Jesus. Pass out pro-life flyers near an abortion clinic. Use your imagination - but keep it completely motivated by this message:

    For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16)

    Freezing in Grand Central Station is cool - but even cooler would be to do something that caught the attention of people around you and turned it - not to You Tube...but to the God who wants an eternal relationship with them.

    Head: What you need to know about this truth

    People who don't have a relationship with God through Jesus Christ need to see radical and creative evidence of vital and authentic Christianity.

    Heart: What you need to feel about this truth

    Simple question: If you were put on trial for being a Christian, would there be enough physical evidence to convict you? If not - perhaps it's time for a heart check and a lifestyle shift.

    Hands: What you need to do about this truth

    Write down a few ideas you have about radical and creative ways to show the world that you are a Christian, then get together with your youth leader and youth group to discuss how you could put those ideas into action.

    February 24 2008

    Hey,

    Okay so i'm not sure whats going on. I can be so happy then get this horrible sick hurt feeling that is the worst feeling ever.

    But that horrible feeling goes away as soon as one of my close friends looks me in the eyes..i feel....the way i did with one of my other friends. But when that horrible feeling goes away i feel werid b/c the only person that used to be able to do that, crushed me..and now i'm scared this person is gona do that to me. This person isn't the kinda kid i would usually get close too....so i'm rather confused and scared.....but then again i'm so so happy.

    Why is it so hard to figure things out?????!!!!????

    Song of the Week. "Second Heartbeat"

    February 22 2008

    A little hardcore but love the song, I know thatsome parts are hard to understand but they have some amazing lyrics. If you get a chance to look them up do it. Seriously they put some thought in your head, plus they are presented in this form and it is just awesome. Another clean Avenged Sevenfold song. Enjoy.

     

    "We all know what to do but no one does it.
    Now this time has passed and full of regret."

     

    "To me you were my life.
    To me you were my soul companion.
    Now you are so far away.
    Nothing can take away the times and the memories we had."

     

    now just one more

     

    "Two in my heart have left me a while, I stand alone.
    When they get back, it won't be the same."

    ha i'm 29% lol wow

    February 21 2008

    i dont want your sympathy.... But Gosh do i feel worthless right about now.... passed out til about 10  its just easier to sleep away sickness than anything else! plus my energy level is like a 10 , not a good combination!!!

     so im at home, sitting here at home,

    playing on the computer sitting here at home.

     

     

    oh yeah , i meant to tell you.

     Austin & I are on 6 months Monday!!

     A lot of people believed we wouldn't make it ,

    and at the beginning our relationship,

     thats what kept me fighting to keep us together,

    now when we struggle i fight because im scared i won't make it,

    i fight because he would have my heart and though i know if it all blow up in my face i would still be breathing,

     i would just be breathing differently! hes become part of me....

    more than any guy is or ever was

     

     im proud of the neclace he put around my neck that cold december night,

     Im proud of the football hoody he dared me to wear to school,

    i'm also proud of the times we've struggled,

    I'm proud of the times no words could even be said,

     but those words spoke louder than anything.

    I'm proud of second thoughts,

    I'm proud of  close moments,

    where i could almost tell you what he was thinking.

    im proud of nights i couldnt get him off my mind all night long,

    im proud of tears i ve cried because of him.

    Im proud of awkward conversations, where weve had to say "this isn't going to happen again"!

     im proud of pictures of us built from memories,

    im proud of the person he has become because of me,

    and the person he has made me.

     im proud of our silly conversations that don't go anywhere,

     im proud when he's moved my hair out of my eyes,

    Im proud of the moments i felt locked into his soul,

     im proud of when he said any other girl wouldn't be me,

    im proud of when i hug him like im the only one who gets to,

    & im proud that he is the last thing i think about at night.

    im proud of us making it this long , and im proud for whatever comes whether this be nearing end or just the beginning.

     

     

     

     

     

    whats to come (sorry this is so long)

    February 20 2008

    i was talking to my mom earlier today when i was at a pretty awesome outdoor store. though be it that everything was overpriced, they had some cool stuff. you gotta know your stuff sometimes when you go to these places, that can stick it to you sometimes.

     

    but on to what my mom had to say.

     

    she told me that she was listening to dave ramsey, whom i've listened to most all my life and i revere as a very knowledable person, whom was saying to a caller the other day that in this day and age, when job hunting, you have to have something specific to bring to the table. and my mom was asking me what i had to bring to the table when i graduate. well, i told her that was a good quesion. cause ever since i've decided to do public administration, i dont really know what i have to bring to the table. i could probably sell myself pretty well at a job interview, but that takes alot of confidence, and not that i dont have alot of confidence, but what do i have.

     

    i still really wanna go to law school, so i should be studying for the Lsat, but i havent started yet. i should be studying more for what i am studying  now.

     

    i'm watching the king and i right now. it's a good movie. a remake of an old movie from the sixties that i saw when i was in the 6th grade at central. there was a line in there that caught my attention:

    "I wish to learn english to please his majesty."

    teacher: "That is good but i hope more importantly you want to learn english to please yourself."

     

    it made me think, ya, i need to learn something that is useful in life, something i can get a job with. but more importantly, why dont i learn something that i enjoy. that i like going to class for. that i like reading about. studying. discussing. maybe some of the classes that i'm in right now arent all that great. but it's still interesting to know how things work in government.

     

    if you want to understand why things happen today you must first understand how they came to be over the years, and then understand how they work on a daily basis. so, history isnt that bad. i.e. if you want to know why south american countries are still considered developing countries, you must understand it's war torn past and military/political past.

     

    anyways.

     

    i'm tired of obama and his feel good message. his empty words. he has that sing song type speech kinda. they way he drags out certain letters to make it sound empowering and tug at your heart strings. he's telling the people of this country what they want to hear. that we need a change cause people believe that things are bad and it's because of the president. people should understand that the president actually holds a weak spot in governtment. maybe the reason things arent so great is the change in power in the House a couple of years back...

     

    hillary isnt much better, but i dont think her words are empty such as obama. and, he accuses her of stealing his words of "yes we can", but in reality, thats the words of the farmers worker union. so really, he stole chaves words. Hugo that is. the "dictator" of venezuala. i call him a dictator. more than likely it's just a strong presidency. larger government=socialism/communism. universal health care=larger government.  it takes a while for things like that to evolve, but it could happen. you gotta watch out.

     

    this post is getting way to long.

     

    God will always provide. so i'm not too worried about what will come in my future. as long as i try my best and follow His ways, i believe it'll work out.

     

    in other news, i'm going to start training for a marathon. might be fun. i'll get in good shape anyways. but i'm ready for it to warm up. spring break will be fun. but i need to some serious studying for my midterms. but i'm doing ok thus far. i like my stats teacher.

     

    sorry this was so long. hope everyone is doing well.

    NOT THE SAME

    February 20 2008
    I dont know why but here lately i just dont know what is going on with me one day i'll be fine and then the next day i just dont feel like myself and like i am depressed i dont know why this is happening to me and i dont know when its going to end all i know is god is the answer to all my problems and he holds the KEY. so maybe all of this is meant to be happening to me but im not realyy sure i havent really opened up about this before so i hope im doing the right thing but maybe one day when i am older i will understand what i am going through but for now it remains a mystery

    Spiritual 'Rehab'

    February 19 2008

    Spiritual 'Rehab'

    They tried to make me go to rehab but I said 'no, no, no.'
    Yes I've been black but when I come back you'll know, know, know.
    I ain't got the time and if my daddy thinks I'm fin,e
    He's tried to make me go to rehab but I won't go, go, go.

    Has anybody ever tried to make you do something that you didn't want to do? It's definitely not fun - and it's definitely the way Amy Winehouse was feeling a while back when she was riding a huge wave of success in her professional life, but crashing and burning in her personal life. And, as with most people, she had friends and family who truly care for and love her. When you see a good friend or relative in a downward spiral, you tend to get very concerned, which is why Amy's circle of friends advised her to check into a rehabilitation center.

    Obviously things have changed since she penned those words, because as I write these words, Amy is in rehab - and evidently making great progress at beating the drug and alcohol temptations that threaten to take her down. Here's what her brother said:

    Detox was tough, but she did it. She was as bright and vivacious as she had been before her demons took over. It (the night of the Grammys) was without a doubt the greatest night our family has enjoyed in a long, long time.

    In my opinion, we all need a rehab of sorts. Of course, just like Amy - we don't want anyone to make us go. But when the people who love us give us straight up talk about the deadly and destructive paths we oftentimes walk down, it's time to listen.

    That's what Amy Winehouse did.

    That's what we need to do.

    So perhaps you're reading this, and you're thinking "Dude - I don't smoke crack cocaine and get drunk all the time. In fact, I don't do any of that stuff - so why would I need rehab?"

    Great point - and I agree, if that's you - you don't need a chemical detox - probably most of us don't. But... we ALL have another kind of poison coursing through our spiritual veins - and unfortunately, we are all addicted to this deadly venom.

    It's called sin. It comes in all kinds of forms, but here's a list that might help you identify your particular toxins:

    Sexual immorality, impurity, lustful pleasures, idolatry, sorcery, hostility, quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissension, division, envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and other sins like these (Galatians 5:19-21).

    These are things that need to be taken as seriously as a drug or alcohol addiction, because left unchecked, they *will* kill you. Maybe not physical death, but for sure they will poison your life to the point where you are trapped in an emotional and spiritual death state that sucks out any hope of finding joy and meaning in life. They all stem from what the Bible calls 'the flesh' - which is really the source of all our problems.

    So what's 'rehab' for the flesh? Here's God's advice:

    Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there. Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit's leading in every part of our lives (Galatians 5:24-25).

    Rehab for our sinful flesh isn't a place, it's a Person. If you are a Christian, the Holy Spirit lives inside you. The power of God is at your disposal 24/7 to "crucify" the poisons and addictions that can and will destroy your life. Seek His help the next time you get the peer pressure to go to the wrong party, or feel the destructive feelings and temptations rising up inside you.

    Nope, nobody can 'make you' check into spiritual rehab, but the Person who loves you most - Jesus Christ - pleads with you at this very moment to ask His help in defeating your poisonous flesh. Go to Him right now in prayer and begin the process of spiritual detox. Like Amy, I promise you will find the happiness you probably haven't enjoyed in a long, long time.

    Head: What you need to know about this truth

    Through the power of Jesus Christ, we can defeat the deadly power of sin and conquer the addictions that threaten to destroy our lives.

    Heart: What you need to feel about this truth

    It's easy for most to look at Amy Winehouse and feel strongly about her need for rehab - but how often do we take the same attitude with ourselves? Here's a critical verse from the Bible to reflect on this week:

    There is a path before each person that seems right, but it ends in death. (Proverbs 14:12)

    Hands: What you need to do about this truth

    Take some time this week and list out the sin 'addictions' that seem to cause you the most trouble. Is it lust? Pride? Anger? These are not 'personality problems' or simple mistakes - these are destructive poisons that will eventually ruin the amazing life God has planned for you.

    A letter to her.

    February 18 2008
    This is a letter to her and all of her majesty,
    To show my appreciation for all of the help she has given me.
    This is a letter to her and all of her majesty,
    To ask what happened to such a beautiful woman.
    This is a letter to her and all of her majesty,
    To ask why her beautiful long hair is up in a bun.

    What happened to this wonderful “person”
    Whose beauty stretched from sea to sea?
    How could “someone” so great and wonderful
    Take such a hard fall?
    Does anyone know what happened?
    Does anyone want to admit it?
    I think I know, bad direction,
    Bad things influencing her,
    And worst of all, the things living inside her
    Ate her alive, slowly destroying her.

    Once a beautiful, majestic, sturdy, and powerful woman,
    Is now what seems to be a feeble falling old lady?
    How will she get back on her feet?
    How can she regain control of her mind?
    Only by relinquishing control can she be well again,
    She cannot hold this ground as one person.
    Power must be spread out, let the hands handle things,
    Let the brain think, let the heart love,
    And let her feet move forward,
    At least from this defensive stance she has taken.

    Now that the correct parts have control,
    Now, she can be able to walk like the person she was,
    And have control and power that she once was.
    She was feared but love, caring but stern.
    Faithful but reasonable and she was strong and unforgiving.
    She is America.

    Have you ever had one of those days when nothing seems to be going right? Well i have learned from recent experience that trying to go into depression wont help anything! With your time on this earth all you can really rely on is people who really are your friends and will support you through the bad times and your family

    Its True

    Again a LITTLE of the most AMAZZZZING movie EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Love It

    February 16 2008
    this is only a LITTLE of the most amaZZZZZing movie EVER!!!!!

    this here story!

    February 16 2008

    so there are 3 main characters in this story ELizabeth, Erin & her! 
      first there was Elizabeth the girl i've strived to be, ive never really got there at any certain point but last year up til june i was closer than ever to her!The Elizabeth loved God, always was doing right, laughing, making pplhappy, helping other.
    she was herself, and i came very close to attaining that!
       Then there was her.. the her is the girl of this world, though an okay kid comparing others, very disgraceful to any Elizabeth out there. she lied a little..she was kinda rude, and she
    thought that the wordly things would make her happy....
    but one day her decided to change..
     that brings us to Erin... Erin is the girl striving to be the Elizabeth while also remembering HER and she learned a lot from her, a lot of good came from what Erin learned though, too. it wasn't allnegative effects, she wouldnt take it back but she does miss her Elizabeth innocence....
       but today , today.. im Erin the girl who left her.. and knows she will never quite be elizabeth. She may attain above or below, but never that same degree she once almost could.
     Im Erin! I love God, & i get confused often between 2 lives... but ive come to realize im not either
     of those people! I am who i am .. right now! & between a peanut butter sandwich, painting in my
    basement, and an ipod blasting music in my ears ive come to accomplish my vision of who i really am..

    _ _ _
     If you know me as Elizabeth you put my heart to shame of who i am now, but if you know me as Erin you remind me of the girl i am now &
    will be for awhile now!

    find yourself. &hearts;

    February 16 2008
    so...my new profile song is for those of you that are trying to figure out who you are.  it's appropriately titled "Find Yourself" by Brad Paisley

    Valentine's Ball

    February 15 2008

    I was going to write a blog yesterday about my Grandmother because it was her birthday and the first year without her on her birthday. But I decided to wait until the 28th to write that blog.

     

    So instead I'm going to write about the Valentine's Day Ball. Here it goes.

     Febuary 9, 2008 was a beautiful day. It was clear and a light wind was blowing to make it a crisp day. We got to the Kelley home about 4:15 which was (amazingly) on time for us. Lindsey still wasn't home yet from work so I talked to Grant for a while until he had to get ready for work. Then I played with the little kids which was a lot of fun. Much to Grant's annoyance, we left (late) to meet the Davison's at Home depot. Once we got there we were amptly supplied with coffee and candy. We were soon on our way to the ball in a rather fast fashion. We were soon very close to our destination when we stopped at a near by Shell station to get our hoops on (which is quite interesting). So we actually only got lost once and we weren't lost really. The poor people at the Recreation center probably thought Mrs. Kelley was crazy. 

     When we got to the right place Grant escorted Lindsey and I into the building were we had to sign in and get our dance cards. Now the purpose of a dance card is to get it filled up with random people to dance with during the night. You aren't suppose to dance with the same guy more than once. I broke that rule. Of course I wasn't comfortable with random guys coming up to me but I soon got over that. I danced with everybody I knew except one guy. But he was a nice fellow so it was ok.

     Dancing was quite interesting. I must admit I think I was probably the shortest person there. I'm glad that I went to the Kelley's the night before to learn the dance. There was this one older man who wasn't very nice. I didn't like him.

     All and all, it was a very good night. The best dance was the Polka with Mr. Kelley. : ) 

    Song of the Week. "MIA"

    February 15 2008

    This song is awesome...it is one of the Avenged Sevenfold songs that don't cuss, pretty nice. I really like their music but some of it after listening to I must repent to God for....lol. They are with out a doubt great musicians, I don't see how anyone could say differently. If you actually listen to the lyrics I am sure you will like this song.

    "The fighting rages on and on, to challenge me you must be strong.
    I walk your land but don't belong, two million soldiers can't be wrong"

    Some parts may sound like Avenged Sevenfold is againts soldiers, I don't think.  

    so about yesterday

    February 15 2008

    So here's what happened:

    So have you ever heard of soul tithes? Well a soul tithe is bad.

    It's where you have a heart ache for someone you shouldn't be thinking about. In order to break a soul tithe you have to be honest and tell that person how you feel. It was my way of clearing the air so I could breathe again. Well I pour my heart out to this person whop I am attempting to break my soul tithe with, and you know what happened? It turned into a conversation I would never have with anyone. I mentioned something I shouldn't have and it turned around to reflect on "what a bad person I am" Which honestly the things that were said hurt me very badly. So I just avoided everything and turned off my phone and left my house. Here's what happened after I left my house, I went to a friend, who would maybe try and talk some since into me about just forgetting about it but instead here's what happened. I told him WORD FOR WORD about the conversation I had with this previous person, and instead of getting the whole yelling speech here's what he did, He hugged me and said "That guy isn't right for you. You did the right thing by telling him how you felt, but he's the one who's missing out." Which he showed me compassion, and understanding. NOT YELLING, NOT BRINGING ME DOWN, NOT MAKING ME FEEL LIKE I WAS ALONE AGAIN. NOT MAKING ME FEEL LIKE IT WAS MY FAULT!!!!! Which was a big deal. But you know it doesn't always happen. But I'll be fine. I just decide to erase a fraction of my life from my memory. I now realize his opinion of me doesn't matter. That I am now a very different person. I am now a much more viberant person. That I am now very independent. I now realize that the person who makes me want to die is just another person, another face in the crowd. And I'm one of those faces too. We all make mistakes? So that does't mean you can make yourself perfect for one person. I mean you can't controll someone you don't even care about. You can't be paranoid about something you're never gonna fix.

    So get over it.

    There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.

    what happened

    February 15 2008

    What happened to that kid 8 months ago? 

    The kid name Tyler. 

    Why has he changed so much? 

    Why does he swear every other sentence now? 

    Why does he enjoy hurting other people? 

    Why does he not think things through any more? 

    Why does he go by a different name? 

    Why does James want to forget his past even though it was so great? 

    Why does he not consder what other people have to think and what their feelings are? 

    Where the hell did i go wrong?

     

    Why am I not like this any more????

    hey

    February 14 2008

    Who Am I?  Yeah thats the question i want answered..and i know you people never comment on PhuseBox anymore but i feel the need to write and just spill how i feel and what the heck is going on in my life.First off, i'm lucky to have the life i have...and i know that! Its just sometimes, i wonder why everyone says Good-Bye to me. LoL its like once things are going good they take a turn and start to suck. I'm not slowly dieing anymore..i'm just trying to find where i fit, who my friends are, where God wants me, what i should be doing. Some many doors are slamming in my face and so many are swinging open, but i'm scared to go through them..i'm scared once i get one foot in its gona slam on me and i'm gona end up hurting again! Ha life is so funny. If you step back and look at whats going on in the middle of all the craZyness...its rather funny to see how crappy life is! Ha i laugh rather then cry....i find it better and more joyful.   I'm so lucky to be where i am and to have gone through what i've gone through! It may seem like hell to me but its not all that bad when you get to thinkin about it!Well i'm done boring you people.

    ...be.

    February 14 2008

    ...I'm so determined to do this right.  I will not mess this up.  I want to, for once, find someone and get it right.  I'm not sure if I'm trying to be someone else...that you want, or if I'm being myself and you only want me to be just that.  I don't know who I'm trying to be, if anyone, but I'm trying not to try to be someone else.  I want to be the one that you understand.  Not the two people you don't.  Really, the only thing I want to be....

     

     

    ...is with you.

    Opening up.

    February 14 2008
    Yes I know before I said that I had lost the future I planned out perfectly, but I talked to someone who works for the gonvener and she said that I could compile a bunch of letters and what not and maybe still get what I wanted...hazzah

    So...

    February 13 2008

    School's Lame...

    February 12 2008

    I forgot how busy 15 (technically 16) hours of school could be. But this semester is still better than last semester...

     

    For that "one hour" I have in addition to the five classes I'm already taking, I am in the "tutorial" stage of my thesis/project that I am doing in order to graduate from the Honors College. My proposal for what I want to do is due this Friday, so I'm working on that and another paper this week. I have decided that for my project I am going to do a short film LOOSELY based off Crime and Punishment. I'm excited about the potential it has, but I'm sort of afraid I won't be able to pull it off, especially after having such a bad semester of Single Cam and the fact I will be out of practice once summer rolls around (which is when I plan to shoot). Hopefully, however, with help from talented friends and professional equipment from the school, I should be able to do a pretty good job. I hope, anyways. I'm going to try to make it as simple as possible, since it really is a character-driven story.

     

    Anyhow, not much else to report on for now...

    Feel free to be sick

    February 12 2008
    I know I sure am. What is wrong with SOME liberals??? Just because you have a right does not mean it is right. There are liberals in some states protesting infront of USMC and other recruiting offices. Not letting anyone in. You people make me sick! I bet you my last dollar that if a country invaded America you would not be protesting them fighting. This really shows what kind of picko, double standard, pick, liberals you really are. Now I am not saying that all liberals are but how can you stand for something that calls themselves that. It is the same as me calling myself christian, I am ashamed because of the people who claim to be (different story, different time) Let me finish with this "If you don't fully stand behind our military, feel free to stand infront of them" Semper Fi, Marines.
