It’s easy every so often for some people to fall, without any hesitation, without knowing if they’ll have a safety net or not. Once in a while, I’m happy to be that person, and other times, I wish I had more of a barrier. But when it all comes down to it, I’m fortunate to be able to accept love in my heart without reservation. So you find that person, the one you can’t get enough of, and something happens, sometimes it isn’t even your fault, and they leave you. Then, just when you know you couldn’t possibly find someone more wonderful than that person that broke your heart, you do. But there isn’t always going to be that better person, eventually, that better person is going to be the best for you and you finally realize you were wrong all those times before. The best love is unconditional, one where your love for each other exceeds that of your need for each other.
There’s always a million and one reasons not to do something, then sometimes just one reason out weighs all those others and you can realize that your happiness is most important, not only to you, but to those that love you too.
Every person has felt terrified of scaring someone by telling them just how they feel. But then they realize they can’t run from themselves forever. Once in a while you need to throw caution to the wind and just fall.
I can live without you… I just don’t want to.
Do what makes you HAPPY
Be with who makes you SMILE
LAUGH as much as you BREATHE
And LOVE as long as you LIVE
Schools going great, my friends are great, family... all healthy. Just that love thing I've got to figure out. I think I'll sit back and enjoy the ride, and see what life brings. I can succeed at anything as long as I put my mind to it, yes, but it has to come to me first, can't chase everything down.
I'm just really looking forward to moving on, new part of my life, to fit in with all the other changes I've made. Being 21, its time. Finally figured myself out, and I need a new place to be. No worries and happiness 99% of the time. People who have respect for the people I bring over, people who care about whats going on in my life as much as I care about what is going on with theirs. A blog might not be the place to put this, and I'm sure that a lot of you are wondering what I am ranting about, but there's somethings you need to vent, without starting a huge commotion in your life, and this is one of them.
Happiness is number one now, and I'm there, and in less than 2 months... I'll be completely there.
*Disclaimer* Of course there were tons of good times in the Penthouse... but I don't have the time, nor the space to reminiss about all of that. It was a part of my life that won't be soon forgotten.
The picture is that of a 21-week-old unborn baby named Samuel Alexander Armas, who is being operated on by surgeon named Joseph Bruner. The baby was diagnosed with spina bifida and would not survive if removed from his mother's womb. Little Samuel's mother, Julie Armas, is an obstetrics nurse in Atlanta. She knew of Dr. Bruner's remarkable surgical procedure.
Practicing at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville , he performs these special operations while the baby is still in the womb.
During the procedure, the doctor removes the uterus via C-section and makes a small incision to operate on the baby. As Dr. Bruner completed the surgery on Samuel, the little guy reached his tiny, but fully developed hand through the incision and firmly grasped the surgeon's finger.
Dr. Bruner was reported as saying that when his finger was grasped, it was the most emotional moment of his life, and that for an instant during the procedure he was just frozen, totally immobile. The photograph captures this amazing event with perfect clarity.
The editors titled the picture, "Hand of Hope." The text explaining the picture begins, "The tiny hand of 21-week-old fetus Samuel Alexander Armas emerges from the mother's uterus to grasp the finger of Dr. Joseph Bruner as if thanking the doctor for the gift of life."
Little Samuel's mother said they "wept for days" when they saw the picture. She said, "The photo reminds us pregnancy isn't about disability or an illness, it's about a little person."
Samuel was born in perfect health, the operation 100 percent successful. Now see the actual picture, and it is awesome ...incredible....and hey, pass it on. The world needs to see this one!
P.S. Don't tell me God isn't awesome!!!!!
Love them anyway.
If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives.
Do good anyway.
If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies.
Succeed anyway.
The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.
Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable.
Be honest and frank anyway.
The biggest person with the biggest ideas can be
shot down by the smallest person with the smallest mind.
Think big anyway.
What you spend years building may
be destroyed overnight.
Build anyway.
People really need help but may attack if you help them.
Help people anyway.
Give the world the best you have
and you might get kicked in the teeth.
Give the world the best you've got anyway.
