Life is too short...

Today I heard some news...

You see, my friends, life is too short to worry about the future, to get mad and stay mad, to lose touch, to be depressed, to say" I'll get to it tomorrow!", to not hug every one of your loved ones when you have the chance, to not call up your friends, to not dance in the rain, to not kiss your husband or wife, to not read to your child, to not cook a meal you never have heard of, to not buy something very nice for yourself or someone else, to not wax your eyebrows(thanks Brookie), to never say "Yes" to someone who wants your heart...even if it were for a only a season that God had purposed.

I could go on and on and on but what I am trying to say is LIVE your life while you have it. This is a lesson I NEED to desperately learn myself. This is not to harp on you, this is to encourage you that nothing is so bad or not worth living for. The fact that you have another breath should give you the greatest satisfaction. It takes the greatest strength and perseverance to find that joy sometimes I know, but it is there and it is attainable. God would not have put us on this earth to watch us struggle and fail miserably. We may fail our own selves but you have to try and try again. I have so much love to give and it kills me that I cannot give my love away quick enough. That can be a rather dangerous place to walk in however. What I mean is, when I say I love you, I am going to simply and faithfully LOVE you....as a friend or if you are the lucky guy, my husband.

People, please live and love.

I may know you, if you are reading this, or you may be just a Godly brother or sister to me that I have yet to meet, but I love you...I LOVE YOU!

You are so precious.

My news...

My dear friend, Frederick Michael Cavitt, passed away on Christmas day. He was in a car accident and now he is with the Father.

My heart is unsettled and I am deeply saddend by the loss of my friend. God gave us the grace to share him and have him while we did but now He has brought him back home.

Michael, you are one of the sweetest souls I know. Thank you for what you have done. It was a pleasure knowing you and being a part of your life. I will now keep you tucked in my heart my friend. I love you and will miss you so much.

It is better...

Tonight was the Amber, Amber, and Anne annual Christmas outing and boy did we have a great time. I know it's been a while since I have expressed my thoughts but I have been surprisingly busy!

I write tonight(or early morning) because I feel the need to express my adoration toward the quote my dear Annie James perfected with me this evening. I am not sure if this is something we heard elsewhere or just made up but whatever the case, it's up for the taking and for the pondering if you so choose to do so.

Are you ready.....

"It is better to be hated for all the right reasons than to be loved for all of the wrong."

Read it as you may but the revelation we both had was indeed to be talked down upon in such a way that "Oh, her, she doesn't put out!" or " Yeah, she wouldn't shoplift with me"
You get the picture...to be hated for the right reasons.

or you can be loved for the wrong like " Oh, I love how he never has to pay a dime for dinner because we just walk out before the check comes." Crazy right?

regardless, LOVE is good, I just know I want to be loved the right way...and that goes for every aspect of love.
