| He had a childlike heart. And that was very, very impressive to me. At the end of the day, we're all human beings, and for those who can't see that it is possible for a man who's an adult to have a childlike spirit, it doesn't mean that they're weird, it doesn't mean they're a freak or whatever ridiculous things people say. We have all kinds of people in the world. The most important thing is that your heart is in a good place. - stevie wonder | | |
| i havent been on xanga for a long time, but i came back the other day and was rereading my posts and realized how important this is for me. i come back years later and am able to see where i was at, where im going, and i am reminded of the struggles ive fought through. i feel thankful that i have this outlet.
i still deal with the fact of my friend dan dying. i was screwed over finamcially this year by friends and people who took advantage of me. i was dealing with the possibility of having cervical cancer. i was talking a friend of mine through a time in his life when his marriage was falling apart. i got involved with a guy who ended up being a drug addict. my best friend's sister died who was the same age as me. one of my best friends found out he was HIV positive. another friend of mine's dad died and i realized a lot of my own dad issues through this and was figuring out how to come to terms with all this. im in the midst of dealing with job related issues where my character is being questioned and im being hated on for no real reason.
these have all been/and some continue to be hard issues to deal with. but i am seeing that through all of this, God is showing up. just like he always does. and i am continuing to CHOOSE to hang on to my own integrity. to care about the things that matter in this life and to remember that "the promise was when everything fell, we'd be held."

| "for as much as she stumbles, she's running. for as much as she runs, she's still here." this is a quote from a great eli young band song called "guinevere" and in the past 2 weeks i have adopted it as my own. this is me. all i know to do is keep on going. take risks, get hurt, be dumb. but learn. ive been getting so much better at this, and it feels good. life is about taking chances and i used to be so terrified of doing this, but since ive started taking chances in my life i have gained wisdom and strength. so yeah its worth it. | | |
| today (jan 6) is my 28th birthday. my friend damien took me out for shots and beers tonight after i got off work cause hes not able to come out with us tomorrow. while i was at the bar, my best friend brittany called me to tell me that her sister shannon died tonight. it looks like it was a brain aneurysm, but we're not for sure yet. she was 28. brittanys flying in town in the morning and im picking her up at the airport. please pray for brittany and her family, they mean so much to me. my friend damien was like.. dont freak out cause she was 28 and youre turning 28. and he was like dont feel like you cant celebrate your birthday either. so i will spend the day with brittany and her family and do whatever they need me too, but i will go out and celebrate and be thankful for a 28th year in this life. this has put some things in persepctive for me. i will not be sad that im 28 years old and getting older. and dont have a man or any kids. i will be thankful to Jesus that i have lived another year and that i have great great friends and family in my life. these things always tend to wake the soul up. | | |
