Thanksgiving Already!

Its November. Thanksgiving day to be exact. Its crazy. Time has just flown by. It seems its true the older you get the faster time seems to go by. I'm only 20!!! But the time I'm 35 I'll be getting whiplash from how quickly time is flying by.

It's less than a month until Christmas! (:

You are EXACTLY my brand of heroin...

Well hello there. Its been a while. Sorry. I mean I know no one really reads this thing. Its pretty much for my own sanity I suppose but whatever.

So I got sucked into the Twilight series. While its write for the 12 -16 year old girls the book blew my mind. Not because it was like a fantastic work or anything but... the characters of Edward and Bella are so. I don't know. I mean I couldn't relate to them really. But I found my self longing for the cnnection they had. It was strong and I donno. Very true, real, and honest. So amazing. Something that you Should want. :) Everyone is sooo absorbed in these books and I can clearly see why. I found my self HAVING to read the books ,wanting to, if I wasnt I was left feeling...kind of empty? Its was...wierd.. But the books provide an escape. A little fantasy world. Something i needed. Something I haven't had in a long time...A way out of the world and all its pain and sorrow, all of the stress and frustartion. I got so into them. After finishing Twilight I immediatly went out and got the sequle New Moon. I finished it cover to cover 18 hours I read with out stopping. I had to know. I'm buying the 3rd Eclipse tomorrow. 3 days since I read of Edward and Bella...I'm gong insane. I found my self pulling for the couple to make it through. At the same time I sort of fell for Edward..(as much as you can for a fictional character). He the type of guy you would kill to have. Perfect gentleman, honest, mysterious, alittle dangersous(ok ok I know MORE than a little), protective, and all around loving. The I'm breaking the rules to be with her because I love her that much type...

Things keep getting better and better. Like seriously everyday! I am so so so happy! I donno what has really changed?! Its great though. Like a few weeks ago I seriously was like "I hate everything." Which is a lousy way to be! Don't be like that. You'll be miserable!

Things are getting back on track attitude and mind set wise. Which is helping everything else fall back into place! You attitude has a lot to do with the people around you and what you're getting out of life. I think that negativity shuts a lot of doors that should always be open....like.. Friends and friendship. People don't wan to be around a sour puss. Or how about your job? If you're negative people can feel it and see it and if you work in retail ya know your sales drop, hours drop, paychecks be come lousy, and co workers won't talk to you. Or how about FAMILY. The people who love you most. You negative attitude will shut them out when you probably need them MOST. Going through a tough time be positive. It changes everything. I knwo its hard to be positive when being tested, but it is a TEST!

God wants to see you pull throug be strom and praise him through anything. Negativity and shutting people out it is just the opposite. He doesn't fix everything for you. Sometimes he wants you to do it yourself. NOT ALONE. But for yourself. Its the ulimate praise to you LORD and Savior. Pulling through a tough time and to still love your God and to still give glory to Him and to show His love and to still have a passion for life.

PRAISE GOD THROUGH ANY AND EVERY STORM


I was sure by now,
God, that You would have reached down
and wiped our tears away,
stepped in and saved the day.
But once again, I say amen
and it's still raining as the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain,
"I'm with you"and as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands
and praise the God who gives and takes away.

And I'll praise you in this storm
and I will lift my hands for
You are who You are
no matter where I am
and every tear I've cried
You hold in your hand
You never left my side
and though my heart is torn
I will praise You in this storm
I remember when I stumbled in the wind
You heard my cry to You
and raised me up again
my strength is almost gone
how can I carry on if I can't find You
and as the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain
"I'm with you"
and as Your mercy falls I raise my hands
and praise the God who gives
and takes away

I lift my eyes onto the hills
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord,
the maker of heaven and earth
I lift my eyes onto the hills
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord,
the maker of heaven and earth

Obama

I am NOT thrilled with the election of Obama.
But what I am even more upset about is the number of people who say I don't like it b/c he is black. Let me just tell you. I do not have a care in the world what color our President is. That is the LAST thing in this world that I care about. I am not racist or prejudice against race of any sort. I am a very accepting person. So you can get that mess out of your head.

Now. I do not think Obama should be president YET! I think that he is not prepared for the responsibility of making choices for a nation. I do not think he is ready to take the responsibilty of the nation. I think that in a few more years he would make a wonderful president. However, I do feel that if the roles were reversed and it was Biden/ Obama. I think it would be a wonderful mix. I think Obama should give it a trial run as VP. Biden is soo much smarter in Forigen Policy than I think Obama is. I don't think he's gonna be good for the Economy either. I just don't think he is someone I can trust with a whole nation.

It is not because he's black. It not b/c the circulating rumor that he is the anti christ, it not b/c his middle name is Hussin. Its because I simply do not feel he is prepared for such a huge responsibility.
