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!
