Two Sides to Every Fence

Not having any "followers" has been a bit of a humbling experience. I am so used to constantly being watched. For people to add, talk or come to an event, just to see where I'm at, whether out of curiosity or to see if I have some how managed to mess up yet again, so that they can wave it in the air for all to see, I know not. I do hope that more often than not it is the first- but I know better than to hold my breath. LOL Being a PK (preachers kid), yes even still at 24, people are constantly watching everything I do and say. So really it's been quite cathartic to be able to write what I want and at least not definitively be held to the yardstick. It's been a humbling and cathartic experience. First I was very serious and then vulnerably silly. A side of myself that I don't share as much as perhaps I should. That is something that I am working on, and hopefully, slowly but surely I am getting better with it. Anyway, back to the mainstream thought. I would love to know that someone, other than me is getting something out of me sitting down to type out a few of the wisps of thought that go through my head... but I'm also content if no one else does - at least for a while, otherwise I may just return to writing on paper. Either way it has been a good change of pace. Have a great evening, my invisible friends! hehehe

Rain is a Good Thing

Ummm. How I LOVE the rain. Right now it is pouring and it is absolutely gorgeous! It excites, enthralls, and lifts me up. How beautiful, basic and elemental it is. I am so glad that I get to experience it, that God put me here on this earth after the flood so I can.... Ok, so it would have been awesome to see the world before, but this is a positive to being born after. : D  Liquid diamonds falling from the sky. Let's go dance in it! LOL

Moments...

There are moments in your life that make you who you are. That set in motion the course for who you will be. Sometimes they are little, subtle moments - sometimes they are not. So are we puppets? No. They will still come wither we want them to or not. That's when we find out who we are.

I am not satisfied with where I have been, but in order to change, I must notice my moments to change my course. That is what I am doing here and now. Publicly taking a stance. So here I go. I am consciously changing my course, wanting and trying to be a better Christian, person, wife, sister, daughter, friend and acquaintance. So here will be recorded my steps and tumbles My joys, triumphs, and sorrows. But as they say, among friends they are doubled and divided. I do hope that you will be my friend. Here for us to encourage one another, not tear down and destroy. We already have a judge and don't need a wannabe. With this I will end my first post. I think is sums it up - terrifying and beautiful:   
Jeremiah 7:5-7
"If you really change your ways and your actions and deal with each other justly, if you do not oppress the alien, the fatherless or the widow and do not shed innocent blood in this place, and if you do not follow other gods to your own harm, then I will let you live in this place, in the land I gave your forefathers for ever and ever."

Have a blessed day,
