J

the joy in your few days of sorry that made me desire to know more about the joy that gently smiled through tears he couldn't hide
the angel in me shone bright to form a connection that will be an everlasting bond between the souls of ones both grieved but a fond love and job created
to replace the missed
to multiply
and form more of a passion
to know and yearn for life to share in

deeper

deeper than any hole
a deeper understanding of how something so deep
can be free and hurtful at the same time
it calms and soothes the biggest bruises
simple enough but complex beyond some of
the easiest principle given to mankind but
yet made so hard dealing with different types of heartaches and pain
sunshine and rain
it devotes so much inner being and yet isn't taken as serious
as it should be
commonly written about
rarely lived by those who say and say they feel its real

cv moon cv

that moon
shines bright high above the tree
glowing on the body so heavenly
never so beautiful and bright
did the revelation of my life
move from behind the branches
as a mask only to reveal
the true feeling of life & love
that moment
shone bright
through the tree beyond
what should have been days brough out of me
a feeling never to be felt again by me
but a knowing of my feelings value and how life's suppose to be

Thoughts....

i never thought I would be so in love that I couldn't see clearly. It was the day KG was so into me that Ijust couldn't see past what he was really after. Yea I believe that to a certain extent that he cared, just a little bit. I never thought I would go to work everyday and take the money I made to pay for dates, buy my boyfriend's lunch, give him money to get to the corner store or give him $5.00, I'm sure was used to pay his homeboy back. Yea stupidly I did all those things and more just to make sure he would love me and prove that I was his girlfriend, the best girlfriend a guy could have. Only for him to betray me, talk about me, cheat on me, use me, and treat me like the scum on the bottom of his shoe. It wasn't until after KG that I realized I was worth more than gold, rubies and diamonds. Now I see! Never again will it be me..................

the sound of that kiss

Never imagined one would miss
the sound of a kiss
the scent of lovemaking mixed with a fresh car scent
the smell of a sweaty man
or the feel of his rough hand caressing my thigh up and down
missing that touch that made me----------------
that whisper in my ear that removed all fear from my heart mind and soul
with the assurance that I wouldn't have miss all the things I fell in love with----
all beginning with the sound of that kiss

Tree

It begins at the root, or better yet the seed. A small inkling of something with the curiosity of where it will lead. It bursts then with roots going every which way. Bursting out tears, fears, joy, excitement the biggest being Life. Going different directions eager to burst through earth and form something bigger for the world to see. The outside old and rugged yet the inside full of juicy proofs or rings, Life. Morals, integrity and the ability to form a pattern and become something greater than just what the world sees. The rings of knowledge and falling leaves of growth. The enrichment of lives and forming of trees.

terrible feeling
violation of pureness
infected with disgust beyond imagination
fear of the unclean
unknowing of the cure
clueless of what was thought to be sacred
knowing shared beyond yourself
only to see what was actual
somewhere beyond what was actual
now factual with the test
when at your best beyond sight
not to know how the page will turn
happy somewhat fairy tale ending
or hell on earth with the rememberence of that
terrible feeling

No Title

It was that day the response of my dreams came, unknowing that the invitation of a lifetime would turn into a dream come true
The best friend a woman could ever have hella kool hella sexy and hella smart
I thought the few secs it took to write that note was as long as he would pay me some attention but all that has infinitied beyond my imagination
all more than would I could ever think or dream
My life a living person who is everything I ever wanted in a friend, a man and so much more
Why is it all the good men have to be taken?
Taken by the worlds thoughts and dreams overlooking what may be their dream and their thoughts. The best thing that God created for man.

Tree Hugger

While walking through the Northern California woods a man came up toanother man hugging a tree with his ear firmly against the tree.Seeingthis he inquired, "Just out of curiosity, what the heck are you doing?""I'mlistening to the music of the tree," the other man replied. "You gotta bekiddin' me." "No, would you like to give it a try?" Understandablycurious,the man says, "Well, OK. . . ." So he wrapped his arms around the treeandpressed his ear up against it. With this the other guy slapped pairofhandcuffs on him, took his wallet, jewelry, car keys, then strippedhimnaked and left. Two hours later another nature lover strolled by, sawthisguy handcuffed to the tree stark naked, and asked "What the hellhappenedto you?" He told the guy the whole story about how he got there. Whenhefinished telling his story, the other guy shook his head in sympathy,walkedaround behind him, kissed him behind the ear and said, "This justisn'tgonna be your day."--

A Favor to Ask

Please tell ten friends to tell ten today! The Breast Cancer site is>having trouble getting enough people to click on it daily to meet their quota of donating at least one free mammogram a day to an underprivileged woman. It takes less than a minute to go to! their site and click on "donating a mammogram" for free (pink window in the middle). This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate mammogram in exchange for advertising. Here's the web site! Pass it along to people you know.

Life's lesson No.1

There once was a bunch of tiny frogs, ..who arranged a running competition. The goal was to reach the top of a very high tower. A big crowd had gathered around the tower to see the race and cheer on the contestants... The race began... Honestly...No one in the crowd really believed that the tiny frogs would reach the top of the tower. You heard statements such as: "Oh, WAY too difficult!!!" They will NEVER make it to the top!!!" or: "Not a chance that they will succeed. The tower is too high!!!" The tiny frogs began collapsing. One by one...Except for those, who in a fresh tempo, were climbing higher and higher... The crowd continued to yell, "It is too difficult!!! No one will make it!!!" More tiny frogs got tired and gave up...But ONE continued higher and higher and higher... This one wouldn't give up!!! At the end everyone else had given up climbing the tower. Except for the one tiny frog who, after a big effort, was the only one who reached the top! THEN all of the other tiny frogs naturally wanted to know how this one frog managed to do it? A contestant asked the tiny frog how he had found the strength to succeed and reach the goal? It turned out...That the winner was DEAF!!! The wisdom of this story is: NEVER listen to other people's tendencies to be negative or pessimistic... Because they take your most wonderful dreams and wishes away from you...the ones you have in your heart!!! Always think of the power words have. Because everything you hear and read will affect your actions!!! Therefore: ALWAYS be...POSITIVE!!! And above all: Be DEAF when people tell YOU that you can not fulfill your dreams!!! Always think: God and I can do this!!! Pass this message on to 5 "tiny frogs"you care about. Give them some motivation!!! Don't tell GOD how Big your storm is. Tell the storm how Big your GOD is!

Interesting Pic

I thought this was quite interesting!

A little Laugh!

A man and his wife were working in their garden one day and the man
looks over at his wife and said, "Your butt is getting really big, I mean
really big. I bet your butt is bigger than the barbecue." With that he
proceeded to get a measuring tape and measure the grill and then went
over to where his wife was working and measured his wife's bottom. "Yes,
I was right, your butt is two inches wider than the barbecue!!!"
The woman chose to ignore her husband. Later that night in bed,
the husband is feeling a little frisky. He makes some advances towards
his wife who completely brushes him off. " What's wrong?" he asks.
She answers, "Do you really think I'm going to fire up this big-ass grill for
one little weenie?"

Who Am I?

I wonder each and everyday about the person I am, honestly I don't know. Suprising huh? I know who God says I am but I often wonder if I deserve to be that which he wants me to be
I wake up each day going through the motion because that's the only thing I seem to know, but beyond that nothing makes sense to me.
I know God has a purpose and a plan for my life but it just isn't coming as simple as I think it should.
It's funny how we each have things we love to do, movies we love to see, favorite songs, colors, books and holidays but I have come to realize yes that some of those things set us apart being different as individuals and yet the same as others but non of this defines or says exactly who we are--again who am I?
I can say what I want to be or how I want to be but the reality of it all is I don't have much of a decision as far as all of that is concerned. I have only to decide what I'm going to dress this earthly body in each day. The ultimate decision and plan has already been made, despite the roads I detour to. It's already been made but still, who Am I?

Consistency

I don't have much to say today. I have had a pounding headache and haven't been able to do much today but lay in my bed and rest. Maybe this is my body's way of telling me that I need to just sit down and do NOTHING! I want to continue to Blog though because it's been brought to my attention that I do have some people who read regularly and they noticed when I went a few days without leaving a word here. So here's for today. I am thinking of something new to write about in my head and hopefully I can complete it tonight and get it here so that you guys can read it. Until the next piece...Peace

Some hide like the sun beyond the cloud full of rain waiting for the breaking point to release every hurt, pain, fear, doubt and hinderance that was held on to over a lifetime no one knows when that rain will come or whether its a spring shower bringing april flowers or harsh rain with winds and thunderstorms to follow will it flood the soul or give just enough to say there was a release of something or some things that have held us in bondage over time

The Life

Often life presents me with obstacles I think that I may never overcome. Then I wonder, what happened to that day when all I had to do was wake up, go to school, do school work, come home and woner wshat the next episode of the Power Rangers would hold. Now I get up, go to work, work, come home, cook, and wonder if I will have enough money to make it through to the next paycheck. Yea when we all were little we wanted to "grown" but didn't realize what age would exactly hold. At times I want to go back to my carefree life of schoolwork and cartoons and not worry about or think about or even imagine being grown. I know someone else feels my pain. Just a thought...until the next piece...PEACE

I don't consider....

Myself cheap but I love shopping and I have to always get more for my money. I had promised my daughter on several occassions that I would be taking her swimming so Saturday morning when I woke up I decided that we would go bathing suit shopping. When I left my home, I really didn't have a particular price in mind for what I would spend but I knew that I didn't want to spend a whole lot, especially since I had to buy 2 suits. So we went to TJMaxx and I found the baby a Tommy Hilfiger suit for 7.00, nothing for me there so I went to Burlington's and found me a HotKiss bathing suit for 10.00. All and all I did good for the day and spent less than 20.00 for the both of us! I think I did pretty good!

Until the next piece....PEACE

The Dumbest Hotel

07/01/2005
I was at a local hotel in the Birmingham area for a party that my cousin threw for her daughter and mother. It was great! She went all out on the food, decoration, hired a dj and invited everyone we knew. It was absolutely amazing. Well of course there had to be some bad to get to the halfway good! It just wouldn't have been right if she didn't have to deal with some very dishonest and unprofessional people. The place that she planned on having the party originally was close to their home and a central location for everyone she invited. Well the ghetto people that she was renting the place from, gave it away to one of their friends who were so called offering more money for the facility. Didn't shock me one bit though and I sure as heck wasn't impressed with it when I attened a reception at the joint. I was kind of glad that it ended up not being there but gave her a problem of not knowing where the party was going to be held. All of this happened the day before. She called a local hotel and begged and pleaded to use one of their conference rooms and they gave in and let her use the facility. Of course it turned out to be a much nicer and safer enviornment with the exception of us having to keep the noise down. Now in all of my visits to hotels, I have always seen conference rooms in a seperate area away from any of rooms that the guest stayed in. NOT THIS HOTEL!! There were rooms right across from the conference room we were using; which meant that we had to keep the noise level down and keep everyone inside of the room unless they were quietly going to the bathroom. So that messed us up because the DJ she hired had to play really soft music and we had to quiet as can be but we still had a wonderful time! I just don't understand for the life of me, how you put guest rooms across from conference rooms. Go figure....until the next piece...PEACE!

Yo Yo Yo
I am still trying to get used to this blogging thing. I have come to realize that it gives me some sort of peace of mind and relaxes me a bit to know that I can release the thoughts in my head to an online diary that anyone can have access to. (lol) I have to think twice about things that I write here sometimes, I just don't want to get myself into any trouble in case my best friend or another person I may know stumbles across this. Oh well.....
I had a pretty good day yesterday, still very tired from my weekend. I just can't seem to find a place to run off to where no one knows me or can call my cell phone to BUG me! Soon enough I guess. My aunt is still adjusting to having to give herself insulin not to mention she is trying to take care of my great aunt who also has been put on insulin and of course I have to run her errands and take her to the store because she can't drive. The Lord will bless but at some point GOD I have to have rest.
I have missed out on being home and even getting to spend time with my best friend in the whole wide world (RCV).
I normally keep up with current events but lately I have been so out of it that I haven't even been able to keep up with myself. My daughter is doing really good and she loves her head start class. She never seems to tell me exactly what I want to know regarding her day at school. I guess eventually she will start to let me into that little brain of hers.
Oh yea before I forget it was so interesting that I saw a guy I haven't seen in a year. I feel kind of bad because of the way I did him. The ironic part of it all was the fact that I thought about him earlier this week. Wondering exactly what was going on with him and the usual how was he type stuff. Never to imagine or think that I would see him riding his bike (part of his exercise regimine (sp) ) while I was taking my aunt on her errands. Then I laughed because the first thing he said to me was, "I see that you are still keeping it sexy" and of course my reply was, "You know how I do it!" Interestingly enough we talked last night to kind of clear some things and I apologized for doing him wrong when he was nothing but sweet to me. Then at 6:30 a.m. my phone rang and it was him calling to say Good Morning! Boy did I feel special. ALL in ALL yesterday was a good day. Nothing really exciting happened but God is stilll good and that's all that matters.

Wonder

I often wonder what my life would be like without the past I had
I often wonder what my life would be life if I had everything I desired
I often wonder what my life would be like if I had not become a mother at 18
I often wonder what my life would be like if I was an only child
I often wonder what my life would be like I went off to college

I guess these are things I'll never know but things I will often wish that happened or wonder if I would be the person I am now

I might have been everything that my mom wanted me to be with good grades, character and the high school sweetie she saw me to be
Or maybe I'd be driving a CLK Mercedes finishing up a degree just to be getting it
Enjoying the college life, living it up in my own world, maybe joining the sorority of my choice being all that in a bag of chips
Yea right
I would probably be alone and scared with no one to love and care for or maybe wild and out of control not knowing which way to turn
An only child spoiled but lost not knowing who what when where or how in the hell----
If I went off to college---Yea I'll never know

American Flag in a Whole New Light


American Flag: This is awesome READ THROUGH TO UNDER THE PICTURE.This is a beautiful photo of a giant flag in Arizona. The photo is authentic and un-retouched. The picture was taken on regular Kodak 35 mm film. The person who took the picture couldn't believe the image created by the sun's rays. Nice of them to share with the world! For those that prefer to think that God is not watching over us....go ahead and delete this. For the rest of us.....pass this on.

Today....

Today was another day that starts off the week, the dreaded Monday! Yea I hated to see it. When I woke up this morning I had a terrible headache and lately I have been having them. It's been weird. I think I am overworking myself. This weekend I was on the go none stop once I finished my full time job. After I left work I was going to meet with a bride whose wedding was on Sunday to discuss final details regarding the big day so that everything could flow as it should. It was quite interesting. She being from Haiti and I had never been involved with Haitians and it was an interesting experience. I learned a little bit about their food and their music which was enough for me, not to mention their attitudes and they are not very friendly people at all. Although we had a few rough moments with the Bride being overwhelmed with everything, the wedding was beautiful. She was very sad because her father was not able to leave Haiti to be there to escort her on her big day but he was there in spirit and she was settled by the time she was to walk down the aisle.

TNIGP

Yea now that I think about it, I know what happened. Of course I didn't know what was going to happen but now I remember it all clearly. Just like it was yesterday, when he got mad because another dude was paying me some attention. He couldn't stand that other man going after what he thought was always going to be his as long as he wanted it to be. The night my boy "John Doe" brought me home from the football game was the night he wanted he wanted to ride with my mom and use her key at my doorstep to get into the house to prove that all John Doe wanted to do was get some of what he had experienced for months. The thing is I don't know why I was still fooling with him in the first place. When all the while it was John Doe that I had the crush on but never did he go after what all the others wanted for that brief moment of pleasure just to get a chance to tell everyone yea I had her too. Just when I thought about it, it made me wonder really about him and it became more clearer that he wanted to have his cake and eat it too. I let John go so that we could keep the peace and the donor stay only to find myself giving it up to the guy I once gave my whole heart to. The one who lied and told me he loved me, the who cheated with the girl down the street from me (whose house I could see when I walked out my door), the one who didn't appreciate a damn thing I did for him and yet I still gave up the goodies. (I get mad when I think about it) For what? Yea I was thinking that maybe one day he would come to his senses and take me back so that we could live happily ever after. Yea right! The moment was right I got mine, he got his but little did I know that he wouldn't use the famouse "PULL OUT" method that he had used so many times before. He was enjoying that good moment and got caught all up in that good stuff and BAM!!!! That's when hell began for me..........

~Hola Mi Bloggers~

I didn't personally post yesterday so I figured I should today. Life is kool right now. Just trying to think and work out the kinks. My daughter is wonderful, "Healthy as a Horse as her Dr. would say." Oh yea that reminds me that I need to make her appointment for her check up. Anyways....Don't really have any dilemmas right now. Just life itself can be a dilemma in itself. I often wonder why life has so many journeys, ups and down, etc..etc..etc.. but then I realize that all of my issues come into play because of the path I have chosen to take my life down. I realized that being a Christian, no one ever said that it would be easy, hard neither for that matter but a continual test of Character, strength, Test and most of all being able to TRUST GOD! Anyways, I don't want to preach but that's what was on my heart for today. Hopefully I will have another heart to heart moment and express some feelings with u guys!

Until the next Piece.........Peace

"Cry" by Lyfe Jennings

Hey Ya'll
Just taking the time today to give my daily post. Lately a lot has been on my mind and all I feel like doing is crying........So of course I took the lyrics to my favorite song right now and wanted to share them with you. If you haven't heard Lyfe's Cd you must listen to it! There are other songs that I love on this cd but this one has spoken to me in so many ways since the first day I heard it. I hope that you enjoy!
Jassy

I done had money
I done been broke
I done been talked about something awful
Done been lied on by so many folks
I done even been depressed at times and didn’t wanna cry cause my pride was too strong
But over the years I thought it over

(My favorite part of the song)
And after struggling for so long and still holding on
I figured, can’t be nothing all that wrong with crying
If anybody says that they’re that strong they’re lying
See crying is like taking your soul to the Laundromat

It’s like the feeling that you getwhen you see your Grand-mama smile
Or the heavens open up and blessing rain down
Go on child and cry
Go on and cry, cry, cry
We can cry together

See I done been a player
I done been played
I done went for some of the oldest tricks
from some of the coldest chicks God done ever made
Said I done even had a venereal disease
And didn’t wanna go to the clinic, all that attention embarrassing me
But over the years I’ve learned to understand
that I don’t really give a damn what nobody say, I’m a man and we cry
We can cry, we can cry, we can cry together

Talkin’ bout wo wo wo yea yea yea
They say a man ain’t supposed to cry
but I know, know, know
fasho’ sho’, sho’
that even men go through problems somtime cry

V

The only thing in my life so pure
The only thing that made me sure
The only thing I had as a woman
The only thing I had that made me pure
Until that day, the day when I gave it away---
not with someone special who loved me and cared for me
but with someone who took advantage of me being alone single and cold looking for something that would never be there
----Love ----
Yea right----just a hard ----
waiting to get into the next tight -----
just to claim and say he won his aim
another one gone
Not so pure Not so sure of the only thing that made her pure sure of who she was

my vent

my days are so long....when are they ever going to end my nights are so cold...when is that someone coming to hold me in their arms lonliness has become a way of life for me that I can`t seem to defeat isit me or does my soul wantto just love someone freely asit`s supposed to be......why does lifes plan not seem to go as u want when u want i guess, no i know that its because our lives belong to higher being who has the best interest in mind but when i look at the man in the mirror i dont feel like i see the best coming out of me but failure defeat a wanting to go forward but a brick wall that i cant seem to get pass....the past yes thats what im holding on to i just cant get pass that one thing that seemed to make me doubt the person i really am or question the person im supposed to be GOD please help me before i really turn out to be what u didn`t intend me to be

~Jassy As I Know Her~

Born in December of 1983
Her 21 years 6 months such and such days, hours, minutes and seconds of her life has been unclear to her (like a foggy day in San Francisco)
Unclear why she lives each day on this hell bound earth full of hurt, pain, sin, trials, tribulation, must she go on
—to do the will of the Most High God
The Wonderful, Mighty, Prince of Peace, Her Counselor, Her Comforter, Her Friend, she can go on and on………
Wondering how she is supposed to live the life God has ordained for her to live. Being a single mother who works hard each and everyday to make a better life for her and her daughter
And yet has the hardest time completely trusting that God will make a way
Why?
She doubts, she fears, she doesn’t trust, she doesn’t believe that one day all the negative things in her life will be gone away….FOREVER
Yea her favorite color may be orange
Yes her favorite food chicken
Yea she’s a Sagittarius
Yes her favorite song right now is “Cry” by Lyfe Jennings
Yea she likes to shop and be trendy
Yes her favorite scripture is Proverbs 3:5-6
Yea she loves intellectual conversation
Yes this all things are simple things about her life, her struggles, alone they don’t define her, who she is or who she’s going to be.
Only the plan that the Most High GOD she serves will determine that final factor of her life when His will is done here on earth in her life as He would have it to be…..

There’s more……..

Just when....

I thought things couldn't get any worse, everything with my car starts to go wrong. I am getting myself together and about to move out of my mom's house and I have to dish out extra money to get new struts, oil leak fixed, new battery and now the alternator. I was planning to get a new car in about 4-6 months but it looks like I am going to have to speed the process up soon. I didn't want to do that but I don't have very many choices at this point.

That was the worst of the weekend!
So Friday evening I come home from picking my sister up from Jacksonville, AL and I'm going to get my hair done before I hit up First Fridays @ Safari Cup. That plan gets ran into the ground so I go for what I know and I have my sister to straighten my hair so that it looks half way decent. Last month when I went to First Fridays I barely got in and the place was extremely crowded. The dance floor was jumpin and you couldn't walk up the stairs without someone touching your butt! The guys enjoyed that!! This time I go solo and I leave early. Of all nights it was a little chilly and I had on black slacks, black silk spaghetti strapped shirt and an orange stylish trench coat and clutch. Looking SO good but oh so cold. In the line I was on the phone with a good friend of mine (will talk about him later), and there are other guys like Daaaaaaaaaammmmmmmmmmmnnnnnnnnnnn. Saying, "You need to get off the phone and holla at me." One guy was so slick was like tell whoever you are talking to that there is a guy standing in line with you starring right in your mouth while you are having a private conversation. Then he says go ahead and tell him you love him so that you can go ahead and talk to me. I was like WOW! The nerve of this guy. I'm glad that wasn't my boyfriend on the phone or it might have been some TROUBLE!! So I went along with the game and I told him that I Loved Him, just to humor the guy standing in line. To go ahead and end the story, I ended up leaving that party and I went over to my Good friends house and we watched SAW and talked about weird sex stories of things that happened to us!! Turned out to be a pretty good night overall. I enjoyed myself. Talk to you fellow bloggers later. holla.....

I have so much...

Hey Fellow Bloggers.......
To catch up on. My life has turned from being ok to being a total wreck. Nothing seems to be going good and when it goes good it turns bad. Lord Help!!! I know that it will be ok so i am just going to take it day by day. Here in the past few months, I have met some pretty incredible people and made some new friends. That's peobably the only good things that have happened to me besides a good income tax check. (LOL) I am getting ready to move out of my mother's house and out on my own. Boy am I looking forward to the freedom. I have some problems with her that I think will work out better when I am not living with her. I will like her more if I'm not under her roof. Looking for another job, don't think that this last opportunity is for me. Great experience but nothing thathas Jasmine' s future. I have been spending a lot of time with Kamil (my daughter) and it has been great to see how she acts 24 hours a day. Right at this moment I don't know that I could be a stay at home mom. Thank God for daycares. I will let you in on more later. I will do my best this time to keep up-to-date with my life. Thanks for the patience and love.

It's been a minute......

So many new things are going on, along with the new year. New goals, new friends, new dreams, and a new life! Those are some of the things that I am praying for in the NEW YEAR instead of the traditional new years resolution. There is so much to say but in so little time (for me to write that is). I have definitly missed reading my fellow bloggers' pages and I have decided that I am going to start back posting and try and do a little better than I started off doing. I haven't written since before Christmas so I guess I might need to start off saying that I had a blessed Birthday and Christmas. I turned 21 on December 21st. So much love was shown to me and I really appreciated all of the gifts and lovely birthday meals! Christmas was pretty good for me! For my daughter it was exceptional. She was very suprised to wake up and find a Dora the Explorer Christmas. The look on her face was priceless. The New Years was pretty good. I spent the night at my church's Watch Night Service and was home by 1am. Work has been amazing. I am now feeling more loved in my department!! NOT!! The workload has been very heavy the past week closing out year end reports and getting ready for the tax season. I guess that's what to be expected working in Accounting. Besides work my social life is Ok. The same kool friends, but one I had to let go. It hurts when the person you think you can trust the most stabs you in the back right in your heart. That has just recently happened to me. I have yet to understand why the bad things happen to me and I am always doing for others, listening to others, being understanding to other's needs and always there when they need me the most. When I'm have a hard time No one is there for me. Why is it that all the good people are always hurt, broke and suffer the worst? I have got to have a conversation with God about that. Other than those few things. Everything is all good. God saw fit for me to be on this earth for 21 years and has continued to bless me by allowing me to see 2005. I have learned not to take the smallest thing like the breath that God gives me from day to day for granted and I hope and pray that whoever reads this doesn't either. May God to continue to bless you fellow bloggers. Until next time, Be Blessed & Be You! JassyPha
