April 15, 2006How can you know that you miss something that you have never experienced?
my answer--
God
see, when you know something is missing but you don't know what it is...when a part of you feels void, or empty, or lonely...God gives us that sensation, that longing, so that when we find that one thing...we are truly happy...not just emotionally happy...but we come alive and we truly live for the first time...everything changes...our eye's open...and for that brief moment in eternity...
we are complete
God is available in every situation...He is there and He is in control...the situation may not come out the way we want it...in fact, it probably wont...we don't have any clue what is best for us...He has something unimaginalbe in mind...you think you have found you best and He just sit's back and smile's...then He hands you His best...and it is SO much better...
He loves to see you smile
He loves to be the cause of your smile
He loves to be able to give you reason to smile
without Him...there are no smiles
if you only knew
Pain, difficulties, trials, tribulations, testings...all things we go through so that we may truly enjoy the moments of breif happiness given to us...this world isn't perfect...far from it...and the people in it can be cruel...but that is because they have yet to find happines...
Happiness...true happiness...everlasting happiness...comes from Him...
and He never runs out
given back my smile and my joy and my life

December 15, 2005Home is Where the Heart is.....
I am HOME!!!! I missed it oh so much. Though I had an unhappy experience coming home...let me explain. I live an hour and a half from school...well I had made it to Goodman (25 minutes from my house), looked over and saw two of the schools movies in my front seat that I was supposed to return. I called and they told me they did charge fines over the holidays...$1 a day...I was not a happy camper... So, I drove BACK to school in the bad weather and went to return the movies...the lady behind the desk snapped at me (I bit my lip and smiled). Then I drove back home...witnessing 3 wrecks on the way. I am just glad that I wasn\'t part of any of them and the people involved seemed ok.
Well, got home and mom cooked supper...loved it. Then I got to talk to Leah...she is doing good, for those of you that don\'t know...she just had nose surgery Monday to fix the break. She isn\'t in much pain, just uncomfortable. I get to go see her Friday...and she is coming to my house for the New Years party.
I already miss everyone at school and can\'t wait to see everybody, but I love being home...though I am getting sicker, stupid weather...no, I love it cold, just messes with my immune system. Medicine is good and now have mom to take care of me. Finals are over and school is out for a while...that excites me. My first semester of MC as a transfer student is finished...that is good news as well.
I hope everyone has an amazing CHRISTMAS, since no-one can say that anymore, and the best New Years ever. Call me or write me or something so that I know how you are....Love you all with all my heart....

56 years and going strong...
November 05, 2005This is a bitter-sweet day. Today is my grandparents (mother\'s side...i am closest to) 56th anniversary. How exciting!!! To be married to the love of your life for 56 years!!! That is the sweet part, now for the bitter. My grandmother has been sick for a couple of weeks. Just forgetful, tired, kinda distant at times. Well, this week she has gotten severly worse.
PLEASE pray hard!!!

death is hard to cope with...
October 14, 2005Today is Carrie\'s birthday. For those of you that don\'t know, Carrie is a very close friend of mine that died last Christmas in a car accident. She left a lot of friends and family that love her. We all took this very hard. I have lots of memories with her and I only knew her a year and a half. I ask everyone to pray for her family and friends that are remembering her today.
I am not having a very good day, this is very hard...I need a hug...
