Hey
March 08 2007
So, i haven't done to much different.
I got to go to my best friends church wednesday night! It was good, i stoped going wednesday night to my church b/c i wasn't learning anything! I haven't learned anything on a wednesday night in a LONG time! So, yeah, that was fantastic. I baby-sat a bunch this week, but that happens like every week :)
Yesterday i got to go riding. It was so much fun. I rode my third favorite horse... lol
We ran like craZy and it was THE best thing i have done in a long time. It was FANTASTIC to be up in the saddle, since we moved, i haven't got to ride or play around with horses everyday :( But at lest once a week is better then nothing.... right....
I am getting used to my braces!!
They don't hurt as bad. What else is there.... School, is the same for me, i am doing pretty good with all my subject. I think thats about it.
So, i'll up-date when something else fantastic happens :)

Wild Horses
Wild horses aren't just wild beasts, as most people call them. They aren't feed eating pigs, as some ranchers and farmers call them. They wouldn't hurt us if they weren't so afraid of us. We are trying to take the land which the wild horse has run on for many years. We think it is ours, the truth is, its theirs. They have ruled the wild west for many years, running free and living off the land.
Wild horses were the best thing that happened in the Indian times. Horses would run as they wished and come home for dinner. They trusted humans back then, but now they run for the hills when they get a glimpse of us. They know we have lost all respect for them. We don't see the beauty anymore, we look past the magnificent muscles, we can't look into their eyes because we know if we did, we would melt with sympathy and set them free. Wild horses were not made to be caught and put under saddle. They were made to run in the wild, and show us,
Life is what you make it
Some people want to put the wild horses under saddle and throw them in an arena full of people screaming and yelling. Some people want to sell them, for money, some think wild horses are only good for dog food.
Why put a beautiful wild horse in an arena were it will go crazy and people will think that is how all wild horses are, when in all actuality it's us who make them look bad. How could someone sell such a marvelous animal, and think it is good for nothing, and who in the world would sell such a fantastic animal to become dog food.
If we take away the wild horses freedom and put them under saddle, how are our children's children supposed to see the beautiful, untamed, magnificent, Wild Horses?

Footprints
February 14 2007
Footprints
One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the LORD. Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. For each scene he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand: one belonging to him, and the other to the LORD. When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he
looked back at the footprints in the sand. He noticed that many times along the path of his life there was only one set of footprints. He also noticed that it
happened at the very lowest and saddest times in his life. This really bothered him and he questioned the LORD about it: "LORD, you said that once I decided to follow you, you'd walk with me all the way. But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times
in my life, there is only one set of footprints. I don't understand why when I needed you most you would leave me." The LORD replied: "My son, my precious child, I love you and I would never leave you. During your times of
trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you."

5 lessons about the way we treat people
February 10 2007
1 - First Important Lesson - Cleaning Lady
During my second month of college, our professor gave us a pop quiz. I was a conscientious student and had breezed through the questions until I read the last one: "What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?"Surely this was some kind of joke. I had seen the cleaning woman several times. She was tall, dark-haired and in her 50s, but
how would I know her name? I handed in my paper, leaving the last question blank. Just before class ended, one student asked if the last question would count toward our quiz grade. "Absolutely," said the professor. "In your careers, you will meet many people. All are significant. They deserve your attention and care, even if all you do is smile and say "hello." I've never forgotten that lesson. I also learned her name was Dorothy.
2. - Second Important Lesson - Pickup in the Rain
One night, at 11:30 p.m., an older African American woman was standing
on the side of an Alabama highway trying to endure a lashing rain storm. Her car had broken down and she desperately needed a ride. Soaking wet, she decided to flag down the next car. A young white man stopped to help her, generally unheard of in those conflict-filled 1960's. The man took her to safety, assistance and put her into a taxicab. She seemed to be in a big hurry, but wrote down his address and thanked him. Seven days went by and a knock came on the man's door. To his surprise, a giant console color TV was delivered to his home. A special note was attached.
It read:
"Thank you so much for assisting me on the highway the other night.
The rain drenched not only my clothes, but also my spirits. Then you came along. Because of you, I was able to make it to my dying husband's bedside
just before he passed away... God bless you for helping me and unselfishly serving others."
Sincerely,
Mrs. Nat King Cole.
3 - Third Important Lesson - Always remember those who serve.
In the days when an ice cream sundae cost much less, a 10-year-old boy entered a hotel coffee shop and sat at a table. A waitress put a glass
of water in front of him. "How much is an ice cream sundae?" he asked. "Fifty cents," replied the waitress. The little boy pulled is hand out of his pocket and studied the coins in it. "Well, how much is a plain dish of ice cream?" he inquired. By now more people were waiting for a table and the waitress was growing impatient. "Thirty-five cents," she brusquely replied. The little boy again counted his coins. "I'll have the plain ice cream," he said.
The waitress brought the ice cream, put the bill on the table and walked away The boy finished the ice cream, paid the cashier and left. When the waitress came back, she began to cry as she wiped down the table. There, placed neatly beside the empty dish, were two nickels and five pennies.. You see, he couldn' t have the sundae, because he had to have enough left to leave her a tip.
4 - Fourth Important Lesson. - The obstacle in Our Path.
In ancient times, a King had a boulder placed on a roadway. Then he hid himself and watched to see if anyone would remove the huge rock.
Some of the king's wealthiest merchants and courtiers came by and simply walked around it. Many loudly blamed the King for not keeping!
the roads clear, but none did anything about getting the stone out of the way. Then a peasant came along carrying a load of vegetables. Upon approaching the boulder, the peasant laid down his burden and tried to move the stone to the side of the road. After much pushing and straining, he finally succeeded. After the peasant picked up his load of vegetables, he noticed a purse lying in the road where the boulder had been. The purse contained many gold coins and a note from the King indicating that the gold was for the person who removed the boulder from the roadway. The peasant learned what many of us never understand! Every obstacle presents an opportunity to improve our condition.
5 - Fifth Important Lesson - Giving When it Counts...
Many years ago, when I worked as a volunteer at a hospital, I got to know a little girl named Liz who was suffering from a rare &serious disease. Her only chance of recovery appeared to be a blood transfusion from her 5-year old brother, who had miraculously survived the same disease and had developed the antibodies needed to combat the illness. The doctor explained the situation to her little brother, and asked the little boy if he would be willing to give his blood to his sister. I saw him hesitate for only a moment before taking a deep breath and saying, "Yes I'll do it if it will save her." As the transfusion progressed, he lay in bed next to his sister and smiled, as we all did, seeing the color returning to her cheek. Then his face grew pale and his smile faded. He looked up at the doctor and asked with a trembling voice,
"Will I start to die right away". Being young, the little boy had misunderstood the doctor; he thought
he was going to have to give his sister all of his blood in order to save her.

Truth About Girls...
~ Never ever tell a girl she looks tired.
~ We will never be too old for sleepovers.
~ We arent ashamed to cry.
~ We must go to the bathroom in groups. Get over it.
~We have this thing called feelings.Dont hurt them
~ We dont wake up looking pretty. It takes time and effort.
~ Sometimes...... is just never quite enough.
~ We need girls nights OFTEN.
~ When we cry we don't want you to just stand there and act like a idiot. We want you to be there for us and care.
~ We never forget the things you say to us that hurt.
~ It doesnt matter who dumped who or why. Whenever we see an ex with another girl, it
always bothers us. Not because we aren't over you, but because we know we used to be that girl.
~ Makeup can hide so many things
~ Never ever ask a girl what she weighs; or imply anything about her weight being too much or too little. Just don`t do it.
~ Never ask a girl if shes being snotty...cause other things annoy us...duhhhhh
~ As much as we say we didnt like u that much...we did.
~ Girls notice every little thing so be careful what you say (or don't say) and do (or don't do).
~ Our eyes are located in our heads. Not our chest or backside. When you're not looking in our eyes, WE KN0W
~ We get a feeling in our gut when things are wrong *We seriously do*
~ Sometimes we trust you because we want to, even when we know you are lying, and it hurts.
~ Hugs are like Medicine....So give them to us
~ Never tell a girl she's hot. Tell her she's beautiful. It will make her feel more important.

Have you ever felt like you were drowning? When everything that you did and said was wrong?
Its like I can’t get a brake anymore. Not even with friends, I mean isn’t it supposed to be when your with your friends you can relax? Now don’t get me wrong, there are sometimes when I have fun with my friends. But now it seems like my friends ether don’t talk to me or they say something mean to me. I don’t know! I think I am just so confused that I am lost, and I am so lost I am scared, and I am so scared I am tired, and I am so tired I want to just give up!
