sometimes u have to count your blessings not whats wrong

well i have been off youtube and blogger for a week or so ... if seems when one thing happens wrong it all happens at once ? i guess this is called snowballing affect .... i have felt this for the passed month and as much as i think positive i cant help but to think to myself y ? but i always say when u loose grip .. its too late it will be lost .. so i keep holding on , but wanted to let u know how i was doing and what has been going on as i feel like i owe it to you guys <3 you alll are amazing for the support and i have been so thankful for the cards and everything and kind words all of you have said to me ! truly from the heart thank you ! first it was my nan yesterday was one month without her in my daily life this is a hard reality to grab ne way .. but i know i have a amazing angel looking after me ...! then my car broke i have it fixed now so thankful for that and today it is my dog ford ( my lab ) i took him to the vet it was his knee and he is still there going in for surgery tomorrow ): im sure he will be fine but he has never been in a cage lol poor guy and the recovery time is 4 months so hoping it all goes well he is like one of my kids ! but everything happens for a reason even if you dont know the reason at the time you will get there and in the end i hope to meet you with a smile ! be blessed stay strong and thanks for the support xoxo

be blessed my thoughts are with anyone who has lost a loved one

Don't pray when it rains if you don't pray when the sun shines, my thoughts are with those who where affected by 911 ( everyone ) but also keep in mind ....even if it doesn't make the news we loose thousands a day keep them in ur prayers too ♥ be blessed

old coupon new friends ha

people never seem to surprise me ... i must give off a friendly vibe to strangers cause i have more

strangers that come up and just start talking to me than i do people i know sometimes it seems

i talk to anyone so i don't mind at all and find it interesting and fun ... well i was in line at the deli

waiting on getting some lunch meat i have this older couple ( early 70s maybe ) as i was minding

my own business i had a feeling i was getting stairs and as i am in shorts hair up and a tank top

alot to stair at with my tattoos and ears so i expect it .. i looked to the side and lady was and she

just smiled i smiled back and turned away then she gets real close to me ha ? i turn to the side

again and she proceeds to ask me if i sleep in all my earrings , asking if they hurt getting them

done and how her husband didn't want her to get her ears pierced once and pulled off her clip

on earrings i smiled this couple was such a fun couple laughing and joking and her saying

she was going to get her stomach pierced ( as she said it ) assuming belly button asked if i had

that done i said yeah she said o my grand daughter has all that done but ur ears are impressive

haha they where asking if i slept in them and the husband starts laughing so hard saying i bet

its a pain in the ass taking all them out LOL the wife looks at him smiles and looks at me

and says hes a pain in the ass and has no piercing haha then the husband had to show me his

tattoo that he got of his wife's name when he was in the army lol laughs so hard and said that

was a mistake i had to keep her since its on my arm they were just too funny and random

and so like me only 50 some years older .. guess this is a pointless story but this just goes to

show u no matter what u look like or how different the people look u all can have something

in common not everyone is judgmental and this is a nice reality to have , i love all the random

people i start a conversation with and the lady hugged me when i walked away ( agree bit weird )

but my nan would have done the same thing walking away she says u r too beautiful as i smiled

and said thanks hun u take care but here i thought before i talked to them they were starring

to be rude or just to judge but here they had more in common that what i thought just another

life story to show u to be nice to others even if u dont know them we all have our own story !

be blessed be thankful !

thanks for watching and be blessed and be creative (;

helping a stranger ?

well if you follow me on fb u know i picked up this woman today .......

she was walking when i went to the dollar tree on the highway ( nothing close to where she was at)

on the way home i passed her again as i looked in my rear view mirror something told me to turn

around as i went a mile out of my way ( divid highway ) i came back across her pulled over and

asked if she wanted a ride ... she was like o bless u ! got her many bags and a box she was caring

in my firebird was a tight fit as not to many words where said ( im sure a little embarassment she

felt ) but i didn't feel like that at all i asked well where u need to go she told me o hun i am going

to the homeless shelter with a smile i said ok.. just 2 miles down the road she said wow that

would have been a long walk ( as she was already out of breath and mid age women ) i smiled

and said well u where doing alot better than i would (; as she got out she grabbed my hand

and said bless u ! not much of a conversation in 2 miles but touched my heart i hope she

finds the strength to turn her life around i don't know her story but she seemed like a great

person going through a hard time i was thankful i could help out as i was going that way ne way

wasn't a big deal at all .... now to the young ones reading ... as i did a nice thing please understand

not everyone walking on the side of a road is a good person u are taking a risk when u do

something like this i NEVER pick ne one up when my kids are with me not because i don't want

to but because u never know the harm , people sadly do bad things when they are down and out

you could get robbed ect ... i try to do only in day light . you never want to put yourself at harm

but i also cant leave someone who needs help when i know i can help them ! jay use to HATE

when i did this !!! he would never understand y i would ever pick someone up i have done it

ever since i could drive ! but we grew up different ! !!!! i was always taught if u can help out

without completely going out of ur way do it ! help out people who need it even if u know them

or not we all are gods creatures ! as i told jay my story from today he shook his head and

did give a smirk ... but i know that women was so grateful and even if she didn't know my name

if i see her again ill just give her a smile .. when you are at the bottom u need a little hope to

find ur faith and dreams again i hope i added to hers ! as im sure a homeless shelter isn't the

most homey place to be im thankful she has a roof over her head ! and im glad i can add yet

another stranger to my friends list (: keep in mind i am NOT telling u to pick up strangers !

but u can help out ! even if its a smile or holding the door be a little thoughtful it doesn't take

much out of ur day and may make theirs ! be blessed be thankful

also 99% of the time i will not pick up someone who is asking for a ride this woman was

minding her own business walking sweating and huffing and puffing (; keep in mind we make

our own road to life make sure u walk a straight line (;

heres to the memories

everybody starring see the eyes from a far even if they aint i still think they are ... hard times when ur gone im going to miss u ...

back to reality , cant live my life with suffering losses put ur heart in every line not enough time to tell the whole story... but i will

try (: well today was one of the hardest days of my life im sure not the only hard day i will have but it took alot out of me but in

the end we should always come out with a smile ur good memories should ALWAYS out weigh the bad ! today was the last day i

will see my nan we put her to rest today but im sure i will see her again !!!! she is always in my heart and not a min of the days i

will not think about her ! i will carry on her memories and the wonderful women she has taught me to be im thankful and im sure

she is looking down at me with a smile and i promised to myself i would always live my life to make her happy and will continue

to do so and teach my kids the same ! not a lot of good people out there but wow i had one of the most amazing nans there !!!

sometimes in life u loose track of time ... when it catches up to u i hope u have many memories don't like time win u over take

advantage of it i don't want ne one reading this and have them think what did i do with my time ... this is one thing u cant buy

no one can give it to u and when its gone u cant get it back keep this in mind ...

my nans service today was the hardest thing i had to do so far ... but it was just the way she would have wanted it ! so many

people came and shown there regards and many sorries from family members and friends i so enjoyed and just goes to show

she touched so many people ! even with all the support online WOW thanks u are amazing !!!!! as much of a sad and long few

days for me !!!!!! it was healing in itself im so happy she has no pain anymore ! and till we meet again wow i will miss u so

much !!!!! but she will be with me in everything i do ! and in everything i teach ! i will cherish that and thanks for

being part of my memories !!!!!! huggs to each and everyone of u ! i was raised to be aware of the different people in the world

never to judge and everyone has their own story even if u dont meet eye to eye with someone or agree with everything they

do to support their dession because its their life help out those who help you ... and its not your job to judge they will all reach

their judgement day oneday ..... there are 2 types of people in this world great people and the people who lack compassion

and the people who lack this you need to stay clear of they will only drag u down , keep your life filled with positive people

and hopeful memories ! and when u do this im sure u will look back and have a amazing group of friends ! thanks for the

memories ! be blessed and thanks for reading and always make great choices for yourself and loved ones and for those who

you never know will be looking over you (; xoxoxoxox

nan

sometimes people go through life not aware of memories being made around them until they

look back and this is all they are left with , take this into mind and if any advice u take from me

remember this life is fast , you never know when it will be over , you will never know y the

people who entered ur life but they did for a reason .. everything happens for a reason and

simple fact enjoy the memories before they are made during and after .. be aware of who your

true friends are and try to never look at something so long to where its looking negative .. dont

try to plan too far into the future this is not promised live day by day this im sure will make u

happier ! and tell ur loved ones how u feel all the time cause you never know when it will be

your last ... as most of you know i lost the most important person in my life today .. my nan i

am thankful i have had her in my life and i know she touched many others ! she had a heart

problem her valve but didnt want heart sergery they gave her 6 months to 1 year almost 6 years

ago !!!! she is a strong women and the most kind hearted person i have ever met ! i have her

to thank on how i turned out how i look at things and just me in general im thankful for each

story , each smile , each hug and kiss , and each dinner she made for me ( she was always

cooking loved to !!! ) im thankful she raised my son kevin like she did me she loved my boys

along with everyone else ! i can honestly say i never say her and my pap fight ! not once picky

here and there lol but they loved each other so much keep this in mind ( to the younger ones )

the world doest work the way it use to i understand this but my nan and pap were married for

64 years !!!!!!!! most of us will never see this but its possible everyone doesn't meet eye to eye

all the time its how you work around that is what matters ! i was always taught to never give up

, don't go to bed mad , sounds simple ? not alot can do it .. my nan and pap i witnessed to it and

it works and honestly they loved each other so much it hurts to know she is gone , but im

thankful for the wise words , im glad i got my tattoo for her when i did and im so happy she seen

it i will be adding onto it and its closest to my heart like she always will be to alot of people im

sure ! we all dont live forever and this is a hard reality to deal with but even if they are gone

they will always be with you .. always listen to your heart .. as hard as it is to let my feelings

and selfishness go ... i know this was the best for my nan she is no longer suffering , and no

worries now i have the best angel looking down on me !!!! i feel bad for my pap they say time

heals all and i think it wont heal will make it better to deal with tho .. life does not owe you

anything , its not promised its a gift so cherish it

and when its gone be thankful this is for my nan thanks for making my life amazing smiles

and memories in my heart forever , lost but never forgotten .. thanks for the thought and

support once again and be blessed xoxo

homeless or hopeless

..... keep family close and always take the time cause as life goes by someday the time wont be able to give xoxo be blessed we were on vacation this passed weekend and ran into a homeless person as some where saying eww and negative things , i always think positive and im always thankful for how my life played out and always remember what it took for me to make it here ! as we all have went through hard times i couldn't seem to stop thinking on how he got like this , where his family where if he had any i am under understanding you are in control of your life and things happen and get out and look for a job but i keep in mind how do you get a job if u have no address how can u look presentable if u have nothing to wear as now the world is hard now with jobs ect .. can he just not get a break or does he have a support system ? think of how your life would be if all you heard was negitive things and no hopes and dreams or if you still could hold onto your hopes and dreams with living on the streets .. as he got up and stumbled away drunk with pee on him i still had a sad feeling in my heart my mom turned to drinking when she was down and out so maybe that is what he had did some say o look a homeless drunk i look at it as he just needs a hope as i left some change and a dollar i had not much as i didn't know his story but even if it wasn't alot i hope it would give him hope be thankful for where you are even if u are not where u want to be never give up keep trying u will get there ! god has a reason for everything and even if u don't know the reason now i believe it will work out in the end be blessed we are all the same as we all grew up different and made different things out of what god has gave us what we all have is hope its just who gets the chance to act on it or not .... don't judge someone by what they do where or how they live but yet for who they are inside this is what matters and is what will last tp the end a stranger could have more in common with u than u could know and even if words are not exchanged its the simple things in life that means the most sometimes the unspoken words are the most powerful ! even tho he didn't know who left him 2 dollars and some change i hope at night when he is out sleeping under the stars and im at home in my bed i hope he looks up in the sky and gets a smile and hope even if he did spend it on another beer he has a little spot in his heart for the hope to change and he is in my thoughts and prayers no one deserves to live like this it breaks my heart be blessed be thankful and help out what u can

my advice ?

no one in this world u will meet will have the exact same points as views as you ... we all were raised different ways, different places , different schools, religion , friends , we have different hopes , wants , dreams , style , we all think different ... with this in mind carry this into your relationship even if its just a friendship, relationship, or a marriage . my best advice is take one day at a time life is too short to have it all planned out before it happens , and if you plan too far ahead you are just setting yourself up for disappointment !!! enjoy the simple things ! be thankful and be open . that way when you do something that they may not understand or agree with if you talk and explain your way of thinking about it this will educate them never take ne thing for granted ! always remember with age looks fade , the only thing that will last you till the end of ur life is your heart ! so fill it with warm memories ! just because you think you dont like something ( or if you know you dont like something ) be open to it try everything once ! if you dont like it and your other half does do it you will learn ways to have fun or adapt ! this way when you want to do something that they dont like its fair (; never go to bed mad ! dont over do a argument ! everyone EVERYONE argues ! but dont over do it say what is on your mind ONCE no need to repeat it or scream the point will get across ! if its something small write it out for yourself no need to get someone mad over nothing ! true love will be through thick and thin life isnt easy neither is marriage you will have your ups and downs like everything else but make sure the most important things out shine all the bad no need to dwell on the bad times these will pass and you will look back and im sure relax the good times not the bad ! always work together .. give lots of kisses and hugs , be thoughtful the small things count ! life is made up of small things to get to the big picture ! respect others even if its not something you would do if its not harming ne one be open minded ! always remember birthdays holidays and make your own traditions up for each one something to look forward every year ! take time ! if something doesn't get done no worries it will still be there tomorrow! take alot of pictures ! smile too much always think positive ! if something was meant to be it will happen no need to worry about it everyday ! never look for love it will find u when you never expect it ! sometimes opposites are the best ways to get along , you can teach each other alot !!! never be judgmental no matter how bad the inlaws can be (; be open minded but not too open minded where everyone knows what you are thinking ! i say this alot some things are not for the world to know ! understand how life works ... you will NEVER know how life works there are no right and wrong no rules to follow just all points of options and the only persons options you should take to heart is the one you will be living it with ! today is me and jays anniversary ! he is amazing and we do so good with each other im thankful for him being a great husband and dad ! hes a good uncle , son , friend , boss , person , just everything he is truly amazing and im thankful to have him in my life ! years and years go by and i still remember how others thought how we where truely opposites witch maybe on the outside we where .. but honestly i can count our fights after all these years on one hand , we are perfect for each other i truly believe this we taught each other alot and im sure will go one to teach each other much more ! he supports me in everything i do even tho sometimes he shakes his head when i do it lol but always at the end of a day a smile or just a random story to add to our story of life ! this makes our lives together much more stronger ... he does so much not just for me and the kids for everyone and even though we always say thank you some of them never do but he is such a kind heart !!! and y i love him so much ! he is so easy going and kind hearted im thankful and blessed and happy to say happy anniversary ! heres to another year (; i still think of the days how he knew who i was and i had no idea who he was he knew me as gypsy ( nick name he made up lol ) and life is a mystery even tho we cant say y things happen trust me it all happens for a reason ! jay was fait and i wouldnt change it for the world ! be blessed for who you have in your life who u had in your life and who you will have in your life we all change others views if you think of it or not be blessed thanks for reading !

my mom

what happens when someone who raised you , and you learned everything from .. slowly turns to you for help ?... i have said this many times before but how life works .. my mom has been sick a long time she was a achololic for many many years most my times i have with her she had a beer in her hand ... i never held this against her , tried to change it , but accept it she had went through alot of hard times in her life and as i still look back on it now im thankful that is all she turned to . she either way has always been there.. and could handle her booze you would never know she was drunk by actions , only if you smelled it ... to this day i am not a drinker i had to help my mom get through alot and becoming clean was one thing added to my list (: she had a ulcer in her stomach that exploded and was really bad ! lifeflighted and alot of blood transfusions ... she cleaned up and im so proud ... after being clean for years i wanted her to be happy , she is a beautiful women inside and out , but with age as looks fade , she slowly lost her hair ... then she lost almost all of it , my mom is very stuborn ~ she doesnt like going to the dr unless she has to finally she just started going ( i think she was scared of what she would hear ) sometimes the unknown is always the most scary ... thankfully this passed weeks she found out it was her thyroid ... as she is only 100 lbs .. she got sick and just wasnt hungry , all she wanted to do was sleep .. richard ( my moms husband ) panicked and took her to er cause her symptoms were the same as years ago when she had the bleeding ulcer ... but just her thryroid they put her on meds and she seems to be slowly turning around for the better .... sometimes i just feel so bad for my mom ( she worries alot and is like me in many ways ) she gets embarrassed to go out with no hair wears hats and just can tell its not my moms outgoing personality she would normally have ... she is a great person and i hope she can look in the mirror and understand this ..... and to these type of people who judge right off the start without knowing a person weather its on a persons looks , actions or habbits or lifestyle dont look down on them ..... for every action there is a reaction ..... everyone life is different we deal with different things we all are not perfect ... but pick the good things out im sure there is many more good things about a person than negative ... and after weighing out ur options after getting to know a person not by just looks then if its more negative than positive y waste ur time ? you can only give advice and try to help so much until u get pushed away trust me !!! there comes a time where u grow to accept the person for who they are ( not agree but accept ) learn to short differences and still have a great time live ur life but let the loved ones u are there if they need u ! it all works out in the end sometimes its the words never said that mean the most or made the most changes in the silent of life ....... everything happens for a reason no matter what that reason is ..... mistakes are life lessons no sense in regretting them it wont get u ne where look back smile and move forward more educated be blessed and take care of the ones who care for u !

we were at the mall me my husband and the kids this was months ago !!! we were looking at jewelry at jc penny .... this older brittle man and his wife came up to me and just started talking away i stood there and talked for about 45 mins to them many stories and just such a sweet couple !!! they were not able to have children and were so interested in ours ... idk but they seemed so sweet ( not creepy as odd as it sounds ) then they wanted my address ???.... to send a card to aspin on his birthday they told me as i had a po box i use out of my town for youtube i didn't think twice and gave them a address i then got his as well to send christmas cards ( they didn't look like they had a lot of money but such a sweet couple ) its been 3 months aspins birthday is in 2 weeks i go to our post office and find a package ... no idea who it came from .. but listed for aspin he opens it up and come to find out it was from the old couple we had met months ago ! with a little note im so glad to send this as we have no grandchildren hope u have a great birthday .... they sent all spiderman items ( as aspen was in all spiderman and was getting a toy that was spiderman when we seen them ) i must say i got a tear in my eye when i seen this ! they sent him a hat a towel socks stickers and a spiderman coloring book inside the note said im sure ur creative just like ur mom .... and that was it .... this is such a sweet thing for a complete stranger that spent 45 mins talking to me ... i feel so thankful to have got the time to talk to them and i als feel blessed to be able to have children ... some get sick of buying their kids things and i always hear parents say u don't need ne more toys ect sometimes its not the toys thats a big deal its the memories and learning they will have and u will keep in your memory of the toy .. this goes to show there are still kind hearted people out there how some things we take for granted and how others cant have what we can and nothing they can do about it ... take this to lesson if u can help someone do it even if its a smile to a comple stranger it may change their life and u may not even know it !!!! i am sending them a picture of aspen ( listed below ) he drew them a thank you card and i will send them something back just for being so sweet and aspen loves to get packages in the mail and this is a memory i will have for a long time so this is for strangers to become friends to some of us who look so different we think we have nothing in common ... give these people a break u may have a lot of stories to share ! be blessed be thankful and spread thankfulness around it will put a smile on someones face for sure ! just my random story i had for today and hope to have contact with this couple again ! xoxox

tonights simple yet truthful thought

thoughts on casey Anthony case...

first i want to say yes this is a tragic story from start to finish she shouldn't have had her life cut short due to her mom... she is in

gods hands now and a little angel be blessed your mom will get the real judgement day soon enough ! being a mother of 2 if your

kid was missing for a day you would be a mess wondering looking and calling the police im sure is the 1st thing you would

think of !!!!!!.... but 31 days just that i would say guilty not to add up all the other evidence going against her .... a tattoo ?? while

her kid is missing sicking drinking ect well shame but sunday i guess she will pick up where she left off but don't think that will

be too easy for her .... the media locals will be hard on her and im sure she will go into hiding for a bit but now she signed with

a hollywood producer for a reality show sick and not right at all yes but im sure it will be a top hitting show as i hate to think of

or admit .... now to all who goes on and on about this i know yes it is shocking !!! yes not the way it should have ended but too

late she will get hers sooner or later ! this i

can promise u ifs a family member hater or god she will have a judgement day soon enough .. does make me sick but u also have

to understand with her getting out sunday the publicly you are tweeting facebooking pages being open , blogg posts , ect isn't

helping i understand ppl r outraged but at the same time really sadly this happens a lot shame but alot of young kids loose their

lives and this one just happened to be picked up by the media .... shame that america system is being shown as this trully it

makes us look very week .... and with the jury coming out saying they are not happy with the choice they made well maybe they

should have thought about that b4 they came bk with a verdict in 10 hours !!!!! either way its a little too late ... but she will

never live this down and not the first and im sure not the last that this will happen with she maybe needs to meet up with oj .. i

will no way watch her show buy a book or watch a movie and i would strongly agree for others to do the same but im sure not

how it will all work out either way i wanted to just remind u this is a shame but happens all the time for those putting her

picture up ect please remember all the other little kids who lost their lives as well who didn't get a publicized case as maybe if it

was some would be home safe now .. ? either way i strongly agree that everything happens for a reason maybe we don't know

the reason as of now but trust me this happened for a reason ... tho shall not judge ? maybe just leave it to god and by her

getting through this with the court maybe it will change and make others harder to get away with it ... so stay strong remember

those who lives are lost but be thankful for the family and loved ones you have .. your only responsible for your own actions

others will have to pay for mistakes later be blessed amanda

little vent

i find it annoying when some ppl r looking into someone so hard they forget to look at their actions. its annoying when someone does something that they flip out on u about doing when its the same thing i find it rude when ppl only call or come around when they want something and when u need help the offer is never there ... i find it unbelievable when they judge u how u look when they have known u for years .. i find it insulating when i hear them talking shit on someone else ( only makes them look bad ) i find it funny they have no friends and i find it comforting others know how i feel who know them always remember the ones who walk away with a smile and few words said are the ones who will look at them at their downfall and say karma was bound to catch up with them never feel bad for others actions you are only in control of your own , we are not able to help who we fall in love with even more how our in laws or family is .. people who hate are jelouse or just unhappy always keep a smile and strong morals assholes hate this no matter how hard they try to bring u down u will always be on top in gods eyes never lower ur standards and ppl who are rude are looking for entertainment and are a waste of time spend little time if ne on these ppl sometimes we will have to deal with ppl like this but no worries ur better than this (; u may have to put up with it for a few hours just be thinking thank god thats not the life u have to lead be blessed

thoughts as of now

in life we will never understand each other 100% we all have different thoughts, different goals, we grew up different , were taught

different things , we may eat different, look different, talk different, but we all have one thing in common.... we are human.. we

make mistakes, we learn from others, we cry, we smile, we love, and sometimes we hate, we hope we dream ( even tho it may be

different ) we can all relate to each other in one way or another... u never know what u have in common with a person by their

looks first impressions are important but never written in stone .. have a open mind be thankful for how we all are not the same

cause if we were all alike think how boring it would be .. don't hate someone cause they don't wear what u like judge them from

inside out because altho the cover is nice to look at u will never know what the book is about until u open it up and look into it

pick ur friends wisely , like everyone but not befriend everyone .. lets point out good things and remember the bad but do not

dwell on it bad things happen to good ppl but what makes the difference is those who learn from mistakes or bad times

and turn it around to a positive thing weather it teaches u for what not to do next time or give advice to someone yet to go through

it lets work together and things will go easier be blessed and be thankful thanks for taking the time to read

the simple life ?

sometimes its the little things we forget about ... sometimes we take life for granted .. or sometimes we are just not thankful for what we have or how long we have it ... sometimes u focus on what we don't have more than the things we are blessed with .. sometimes we just have to set back and let our life in gods hands when we don't know what to do anymore .. its small things like breathing we don't think 2x about until u cant ur looks or money wont get u into heaven only ur morals will ! please keep my nan in ur prayers xoxox

mistake

shouldn't b hard to make decisions when you know what your values are....Good decisions come from experience, and experience comes from bad decisions...Learn from the mistakes of others, u won't have time to make them all urself , but take advice lightly

holidays but really what matters ...

Sometimes in life we forget where we are going, we loose touch with close friends, we don't take time for ourselves and others

like we could, we forget all the bad things lead up to our happy moments, we forget happy our pets are when we come home

we forget how many people we have a impact on in a daily life even if u don't know or realize it, we forget to be thankful for

everything a lot of others are living with a lot less and we take simple things like food and health for granted, we forget to say

thank you, or miss u and sometimes we don't say i love u as much as we should, but for some reason everyone starts remembering

on a holiday,.... really a holiday ? and what are holidays about not mothers day... because in my eyes we are a mother and have

a mother everyday ( not hating on holiday just statement ) but do our kids know the true meaning of easter ? other than a bunny

do our kids or u know what christmas is other than gifts and food ? we need to slow down in our busy days and realize these

everyday things holiday or not have a impact on our daily lives everyday just not one day a year so be thankful all the time

let ur mom dad grandparents or kids know u love them the same everyday... don't expect ne thing in return u are only responsible

for your own actions and our kids learn from our choices and life views this is what passes down ... not a flower or a toy

sometimes things are out of ur reach and we cant help for what happens in the future or for this matter what had happened

in the past so just take a day at a time don't focus on the bad just accept it deal with it and turn it around to a positive thing

this is what we need to be teaching not o what are u buying mom for mothers day ... what happened to being truly happy over

a homemade card ... the world will take u blindsited if u are not aware of ur surroundings simple is better and yes once u

understand the true meaning behind life then the items will follow but lets be thankful for each other everyday because

in the end most the holidays are just made up and a money making sceme don't get sucked up into it too much ! be blessed

have a great mothers day everyday kids are a blessing and grow up fast cherish it xoxoxox

war over ? my thoughts

So we all heard the news the terrorist was caught * everyone parses claps and celebrates ...? this is good i am not knocking him

being found killed ect ... i want to see proof but either way we need to take the focus off the president as a lot ( too many ) giving

credit to him .... really he did nothing he stayed safe and just the messenger !!!!! i am thankful for the men and women who are

over there fighting for our so called freedom. my thoughts are also with the families who have loved ones over at war .... be

blessed ... but i hate to be a downer but i don't see gas prices or war stopping .... we find a reason to keep going and only believe

half what u see and nothing u hear talk is cheap real cheap when coming from the government !!! y would they throw him in the

sea? either way i could go on and on about this. but sadly we cant just pull out of war. if anything my thoughts are this could

add fuel to the fire bin laden yes was a master mind of 911 ( bless whoever had loved ones im sorry ) but really the only lead we

have and IF he is gone we have no more leads he was the thought behind it but who carried out the plan he has people behind him

and how will they go down just defeated ? and when we are all celebrating ( not me im just sitting back observing ) could they

hit us when we are no paying attention ? just thoughts but only god can judge be blessed be thankful and be amazing just

small thoughts of what i really think u have to be careful on politics talk as it gets twisted but what are ur thoughts leave me a

comment

ur future

Our faith in the present dies out long before our faith in the future....We should all be concerned about the future because we will have to spend the rest of our lives there

asking for advice here is advice on who u are asking

if you are asking for advice deep down u already know ur answer,... but just want reassured someone is on the same page as u.... do ur life choices for u ,.....half the people u tell ur problems to sadly don't care and the other half are glad u have them say all the time will tell u again choose choices wisely a lot like to lead u the opposite way this is where u need to pay attention on who u ask advice

everything for a reason

i always say everything happens for a reason..... i also get asked well whats the reason... i cant answer this and no one will give u the right answer but i do promise u someday u will look back on what happened and realize the reason just have faith everyday u will get to were u where meant to be be blessed (

choices add up fast think !

It's not hard to make decisions when u know what your values are life will total all ur choices ... in the end the little choices u make will be the live u end up living...., all adds up think with every little decision they add up fast !

advice ?

so tired of giving people a reason y u do things like really the reason is life ... u can .. u like to .... ur happy and u really don't care for others approval (; only approval u need is urs not too many will support u truly any way ..a lot to your face few to ur back care about ur close friends and loved ones be true to urself and live ur life with no worries


How people treat you is their karma; how you react is yours, Thoughts lead on to purposes; purposes go forth in action; actions form habits; habits decide character; and character fixes our destiny... choose wisely and have good friends to stand beside u

wondering

life is like ur own movie and when u play it back in your mind is it going to be interesting ?! its the simple things that add to your life story remember them hold onto them for soon all will be a faint memory worried about being judged for what only god can and for the ones who think they are good at judging others, im sure they are on the bottom (; life is urs make the most of it.. and yes i do document my life no complaints u know u like to be nosey and a part of it

cherish life for soon u will look back and all be a faint memory

today my thoughts are with a family friend... my sisters good friend has been through a lot in her life i admire her look up to her

and she is truly amazing !!! she had lost her son years ago and yesterday, she sadly lost her oldest son. my thoughts prayers

and feelings are with her, as i cant relate to loosing a child, i watched my nan go through it and know it is a life time change

and i couldn't even imagine how i would deal with it let alone loosing 2 !!! he passed away sadly in a car accident on his way to

work.. he fell asleep behind the wheel, he hit another car but he was the only one injured. this is heartbreaking he is married

and has 2 young children. so blessings to the loved ones im here if i can do anything !!!! to the rest of you a lesson... you never

know what could happen how long you have here how long you are with your loved ones... you cant worry about it but cherish it

be thankful for everyday you have good and bad some bad we cant ignore but some simple fights we can! its a waste of time

we need to wake up daily and be blessed with everything we have weather its loved ones to what u own or what u don't own and

bills (; whatever it is be thankful u are here you make ur life story make it interesting i say this a lot but truth couldn't be said

more ! im so grateful for everyone in my life and sorry for the things i cant change but we can always be good people be there

for someone who needs you for whatever reason even if its a stranger help what u can educate what u can and spread the word

as best u can in the end looks fade and all we have left are memories and our mind ! be blessed and be thankful again my

thoughts are with all who are going through a hard time and my thoughts are with japan ! no matter how bad u think u have it

wake up look around and smile no matter how bad it is now will get better time heals everything and no matter how bad it is

could always be worst ! be thankful thanks for reading xoxoxo amanda

thoughts today

The best way to succeed in life is to act on the advice we give to others also don't give advice if you never experienced it where advice turns into a bullshit line and a very thin line admirable advice you should be able to say/ write few lines walk away and have a lifetime impact .. xoxo

friends?

its not how many friends you have its the quality of the few true friends you do have that matters your friends will affect your everyday views and lifestyle choose wisely a lot will say they care sadly they are just looking for a story write your own story don't let others lead it ...

beauty ? how do you see it ? this is my point of view hope it spreads

beauty is a great thing but it should start on the inside having nice things on the outside wont get you far if your a asshole if you have a good point of view on life you will carry yourself different and can wear anything and look good remember looks fade and in the end all we have are our morals and who we are inside and memories make the best of it ! don't be judgmental if we all where the same the world would be so boring embrace your beliefs but respect others be blessed

as time goes on ...

as time goes on we slowly realize who is important who wasn't and who we want to be but sadly wont ever be .... don't worry its out of our hands and have to leave our life somewhat in gods hands and understand the outcome of a bad situation. no matter how sad we are today better tomorrows and we slowly forget what was so wrong with our sad days as we look back... cherish life for soon we look back and it is a faint memory .. life changes so do we some by choice some we are forced to change due to someones actions but be thankful for whatever experience you are going through and you would never be you if it wasn't all the good and bad added into your life don't hate it accept it change what you can and just deal and handle the bad the best you can ! i ask my self who what when were and why
my answers to this is
who ever you are who gave me a reason to look at my life the way i do thank you
what ever it was im thankful i got through it and learned how or not to do something
when it was doesn't matter today is all that matters
were you are must not matter if you didn't make it into my todays
why it happened was not your choice or mine it was fate
(:blink ... smile... no cries ... these are the days of our lives (; sadly we all cry but thankfully get over it we all frown but i predict a smile in the future and best advice don't blink too long moments like these you only get once in a lifetime be blessed be thankful
xoxo amanda

where does the time go ?

well as my mom use to tell me time goes so fast and i remember me rolling my eyes think o wow i was bored well fast forward it about 10 years i find myself saying the same thing ... my oldest son is turning 10 bitter sweet and thinking back through my moms eyes when she use to tell me that i find myself saying it but it is really true and i don't think you will realize how fast until you have kids or at least i didn't ! we must enjoy the time be thankful for each thing learned and mistake the fights the screams and let the smiles outshine it all for soon this will be a faint memory of life (: kevin is all excited to turn 10 and to be in 2 digits he says ha too cute as kids in my mind seem to grow up a lot faster in todays then when i was a kid ( not that old 28 ) but wow times do change as i see my 9 yr. old with a cell phone and laptop thinking he is full grown. kids are truely amazing in each and everything they do or say and the world is theres imbrase it let big dreams and high hopes turn into a reality . be thankful for each birthday and think about the next one but really remember what it took for you to get to this birthday... im thankful for kevin and we both have taught each other alot i love you and happy birthday ! * huggs

thoughts going into 2011

Emotions have taught us to reason, The only questions worth asking today is whether you are going to have any emotions to deal with tomorrows Don't let life discourage live each day with no regrets be blessed xx
Life is not lost by dying; life is lost minute by minute, day by dragging day, in all the thousand small uncaring ways. never to late to change have a good start

new start

One day your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure its worth watching. That's the risk you take if you change the people you were once involved with won't like the new you because they are no longer involved or you bettered your choices But new people and better choices will come along and they will be thankful for the change ppl at the bottome never want u to realize u can do better or always try to bring u down change sometimes is hard for todays but ends up most likley in better tomorrows

instinct

trust ur instinct if it ends up being a mistake better off being urs rather than someone else don't let others affect r choices in life cause in the end they don't care not their life and u suffer from bad choices

simple thoughts for today

Act as though you cannot fail but keep a humble spirit Whoever gossips to you will gossip about you What you don't see with your eyes, don't witness with your mouth Swapping lies rots your sole and is a waste of time no need to bother and i really could careless if my name is involved im walking away not saying a word ... with a smile simple minded ppl never get far(;
You can't expect to prevent negative feelings altogether. And you can't expect to experience positive feelings all the time. allow life to direct u to acknowledge ur feelings but also to refuse to get stuck in the negative ones. Hatred is the coward's revenge for being intimidated
its never too late to become what u may have became never give up ur hopes and dreams

be thankful

happy thanksgiving be blessed for everything you have ! the people who you have in your life im sure are amazing and thanks for being a part of mine.. be thankful for todays tomorrows and yesterdays! be thankful for the turkeys that gave their lives for us today (; and never take ne thing for granted u should be thankful for life everyday just not today ! be blessed and be safe ! if you go black friday shopping be careful ill be out in the maddness too and i kno some can be crazy ! have great holiday seasons

car accident 11 22 10

I have said this before but didnt fully realize it until then life can be taken at a blink of a eye, we all sooner or later will face it, weather it is a loss of a friend or a accident my day was 11 22 10 and i was thankfully driving my explorer rather than my vw bug. me Kaitylnn and my 2 sons were in the back we were on our way home from my nans and helping a friend move.. They always say accidents happen close to home, well we were almost home I had just got off the exit and was on the highway I was in the slow lane and a car ahead of me and a car slowly passing me i was just picking up speed maybe 45 50 and the car ahead slamed on his breaks.. I couldnt get around as a car beside me I locked my breaks and as it seemed like it went so slow I knew we were not going to stop in time.. I looked at kaitylnn as her head was down and she was texting I threw my arm out and hit her in the nose but i braced her ( as i didnt want the airbag to come out and hit her as she was sitting or i didnt want her to go through the windsheild ) we hit the car and both airbags came out.. I looked at kaitylnn as she said she was bleeding I seen it was out of her nose and knew we needed out as the car was sizling i wasnt sure if it would catch fire my door was jamed and i remember kicking the shit out of it with flip flops on i got it open got everyone out. turned the car off and told them all to get away from it as i was on the highway and it was pitch black ! the car that was passing me was nice enough to pull over and help. as the car i hit kept going down the road ? finally after a mile he stopped and pulled over i called 911 and they took forever i ended up calling 4 times when the amblance finally got there they got stucking trying to cross the highway in the grass i seen kaitylnn had a mark that was bleeding on her forehead and her nose had stopped bleeding at this time thankfully my 2 boys were fine and Im sure we had a angel looking after us ! altho I wish it was me that had to get the stiches i am thankful that is all that was wrong ! I was happy with the way i handled it as it was the first accident i had driving. my husband met us there kids checked out fine and i went with kaitylnn to the hospital just to ride with her I was not seen and somehow i walked out just real sore ! kaitylnn said she had no pain as she didnt see it happen i think may be y i was braced because i knew what was going to happen . she had got 10 stiches and the lady that had given them to her was a student and she was a little unsure and took forever but im thankful it went all smooth ! sorry kaitylnn you got hurt but we are always together it seems when something happens or holiday ! so im glad it was with me (: my explorer is totaled and sadly my friend was spost to buy it and she was so excited sorry jada ha ! but I belive everything happens for a reason and you may not kno the reason as it happens but Im hoping this in a sad way will make kaitlynn a better driver as she just started to drive and makes us all realize how your life could be taken away at any given time ! be thankful for who you have in your life and handle every sisuation you are handed with the best you can good or bad it will be okay im sure in the end ! be blessed and be thankful take care ! thanks for the cares and prayers ! xoxo

changes

protecting my pride and starting new changes and im sorry for those not involved nothing against you i just thought about it and u have to pick the best ppl and right now ur not on the side i want to support me .. best of luck tho !

smile

keep reaching youll reach one day nothing is impossible its long road ne thing worth something always starts at a distance u have to slowly work towards it give it all if you really want something dont hold back if you fail dont make you a fool you just keep growing make something of yourself life is a struggle but when its hard to smile remember its all worth the while !
follow ur heart only thing in life that last to the end ur mind with age slowly goes.

simple minded ppl

you cant go through life close minded , times change ppl change and sisuations change u have to adapt to it. only thing constiant in life is change and if u are not ready and mental able to adapt to it you will not get far in life, you have to hope for the best but realize u do fall short most of the time. but it is how u handle what comes to you that makes u a stronger person, if something happens that is not positive just dont sit and think about it handle it look and it and then walk away... people that sit and dwell on something negitive will more than likely go back to something negitive .. y its because u get use to it and lower ur standards this happens alot not a bad thing but if u get into routine of doing something no matter what it is its harder to break the habbit. and for people who judge.. when u talk shit about someone ( and most the time ppl like this will do it behind ur back because they are week in person but strong when not confrounted ) it does have weekness in a person but realize its not the person u are talking about its YOU weekness is not being able to point out ur mistakes but quick to point out others ~ we all make mistakes say something at the wrong time or meet the wrong ppl doesnt make us bad just a learning experience were the strengh comes into play , and were others get divided is who can realize its the wrong choice or just go along with it cause everyone else does. be a leader for urself not for others to follow but for example for others who look up to. and remember beauty is within looks fade and in the end all we have is our thoughts to get us ne where and really what ppl will remind u for not because of what u wear or look like be open minded but not too open minded everyone knows what u are thinking. and u dont have to have the last word to make a lasting impression sometimes a quite mind will get more reaction than a line of shit be true to urself be blessed amanda

impact on every little thing u do

The world is a dangerous place. Not because of the people who are evil; but because of the people who don't do anything about it. have a voice speak out no matter who has ur back it takes one person for a leader and ur the leader in your own life have good morals and good people will follow leave the ppl against u behind and dont look back they are not worth ur time ne way ! have a voice and a opion if not u will not get far in life and bad ppl feed and rely on week ppl dont get caught on the bottom we r working our way to the top (;

holidays ?

I LOVE THE HOLIDAYS but I also get worried that we are not understanding y we have them.. Im not going to get involved with religious views but I do think it is important that we do understand and are thankful for y we are here were we r going and thank god for the family and friends we will spend the holidays with ! This holiday will be hard on me as my friends are few ( by choice ) I have lost my best friend last year few days before christmas I took and still to this day take it hard but i look up and realize I couldnt have a better angel on my side looking down. Holidays are ment to realize y we are here and thank for the ppl we let into our life. As i have kids I kno they look forward to the gifts and food but as I look around I see alot fed into the hype and forget the meaning dont fall into that group not a good place to be ! try to help out its nice to get gifts but think about the ppl who cant have food or wont get ne gifts or live on the streets and have no family or a warm place to stay.. donate even if its only a dollar u can if we all did this we could try to help out buy a gift for toys for tots, see if ur church does dinners or help out with ur time, help a neighbor , helps others who are having a hard time helping themselves. not because u want that reconizition either I hate ppl who help with time or money then want thanks for doing it do it and dont tell ne one. the only one who needs to kno how you are helping out is god. u will get the true meaning of ppl when u help someone out in need and they dont kno it to help someone out and not just around holidays but daily idc if its smiling at a stranger or holding a door even if no words are said you never kno how u have a impact on a person but it could change how they feel or way they look at ppl for a lifetime they could talk about something u have done or how u helped out years down the road and when u meet someone u dont kno who they are but u r meeting them for a reason make a good impression cause u never kno how long they will b in ur life. a little thought goes a long way, teach ur kids the meaning of life but make sure they realize the difference in saying it or meaning it ! ne one can say ne thing takes a good person to prove it. and if you are going through a hard time i kno its hard i have been there but no matter how hard please try to realize no matter how bad u have it someone out there has it worst, be thankful for ur health ur family ur friends. make new friends help someone out or feed a animal small things are the most meaningful and will get u far in life and if someone is bringing u down or not supporting ur dissions slowly cut ur ways u want to surrund urself with positive good ppl if not u will get slowly sucked down to their level. dont be greedy and unthankful. its never too late to change ur way and outlook on life and if you are out there and are having it hard keep ur head up there are ppl who care be blessed and come on lets open our eyes hold hands and try to make a difference or a impact on someones life have great holidays ! xoxo amanda

love

sometimes you have control other times you leave ur heart and feelings in someone elses hands, this we cant stop as love is blind. you cant help it you got hurt but you are in control of who you will open up to for you to be able to get hurt.. love sometimes fades, sometimes it is because of our actions or theirs, or others its just maybe gods way of saying its time for a change you cant sit a dwell on the bad times if something is not working out the way it would in your dreams sadly its time to let go life is so short we wont make it out alive and y life your life not to the happest? as things start to change you will realize the true color of ppl the ones who will stand by your side ( verry few ) and the ones who just slowly turn away and the ones you have to watch out for are the ones who turn their back.. this is sad that some will step in when it has nothing to do with them. alot do this because they hate they dont kno what is going on or have control ne more.. walk away peaceful harmful hate words wont get u far and the ppl who are causeing a big deal are just drama and are looking for a reason to hate u. sometimes things dont work out the way we planned thats just life . i always say everything happens for a reason and if you made it today and look bk thats y the ppl from ur past are not in todays... i strongly belive that god gives us ppl and things we need in life to grow learn and how to handle hard times never make enemies on the way just look at it as a learning experience u never want to look bk and have regrets.. just smile to get u through and u will make it to tomorrow dont plan too far ahead u cant see there yet and dont look back ull loose ur way to were u are going and if u cant see close ur eyes the best things that we do is with our eyes shut thats y we close our eyes when we kiss pray dream. be thankful for who god places in ur life and love every momment because u dont kno how long they will be in your life and when its time to part ways do it in a mannor that u are thankful and no hard feelings smile and be thankful for the good times this will make it easier to move on ! life changes only thing i can gaurentee u but i kno that better days will come always does ! watch who u open up to alot of ppl like to add to a story to make it sound better and if their name isnt involed in the problem my advice is not to get them involved... be strong and never change for ne one other than yourself if you are making yourself and kids happy thats all that matters u will never please others just make sure u are happy with ur life choices and ur not hurting ne one on the way.. be thankful and be blessed

All my life I believed I knew something. But then one strange day came when I realized that eberything I knew ment nothing,, and things changed in a blink of a eye . And so words became void of meaning. I have arrived too the ultimate uncertainty

That's the risk you take if you change: that people you've been involved with won't like the new you, because they are not involved ne more but dont let someone change ur mind the new ppl u meet will be thankful for the change cant make everyone happy on the way ..

to love is to admire with the heart to admire is to love with the mind

happy moment? praise God. Difficult moment? Seek God. Quite moment? worship God Painful moment? trust God but every moment be thankful..


sometimes in life no matter how hard u try you will end up still failing not because it was all your fault just because u are only responsible for your own actions and if ppl work against u nothing good will come out of it !

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail, with patience to achieve it

Hope is not a dream but a way of making dreams become reality. Choices are the hinges of destiny

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. Any change, even a change for the better, is always accompanied by drawbacks and discomforts

I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. but in the end im still the author

Tell yourself that you are a great individual & believe in yourself. if you don't believe in yourself, will be hard for others to believe in you. You can make your life anything you wish.....Create your own life & then go out & live it with absolutely NO REGRETS. Most importantly, if you love someone tell him or her, ...for you NEVER know what tomorrow may have in store.lesson in life each day you live.


Make everyday count. Appreciate every moment & take from those moments everything you could possibly can for you may never be able to experience it again. Talk to people that you have never talked to before & actually listen...

If someone hurts you, betrays you, or breaks your heart, forgive them for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious when you open your heart. If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, but because in a way, they are teaching you to love & how to open your heart & eyes to things.

sometime things will happen to you that may seem horrible, painful, & unfair at first, but in reflection you find that without overcoming these obstacles that you would have never realized. The people that you meet who affect your life, and the success and downfalls you experience, help to create who you are and who yo...u will become Even the bad experiences are learned from. In fact, they are the most poignant ones.

Sometimes people come into your life & you know right away that they were meant to be there, to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson, or help you figure out who you are & or who you want to become You never know who these people may be but when you lock eyes with them, you know at the very moment that they will affect your life in some profound way.

sometimes in life no matter how hard u try you will end up still failing not because it was all your fault just because u are only responsible for your own actions and if ppl work against u nothing good will come out of it !

People
are like stained-glass windows.
They sparkle and shine when the sun is out,
but when the darkness sets in,
their true beauty is revealed

ONLINE stalker" - Now that's just LAZINESS! Whatever happened to the good ole days when they actually followed you around on foot? EXERCISE people

inspire daily

success is not final failure is not fatal its the courage that continues that counts in the end never giving up

courage is the discovery that you may not win and trying when u kno u could loose weakness of attitude causes weakness of character

To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream. not only plan, but also believe

just because some say its the wrong choice keep in mind few ppl want u happy end result maybe they are worried u may b happier than them

its to late to look back and too far ahead to see but but with my arms wide open hoping u will guide me the future is unkno but u can make it what u want, what are u going to be? faith in my eyes hoping its not a dream


Never give up on something that you can't go a day without thinking about. Just because it's not what you were expecting, doesn't mean it's not everything you've been waiting for...

Your talent is Gods gift to you, what you do with it is your gift back to God!

someone once asked me what i wanted to be in my life I told her I wanted to be happy. She told me I was missing the whole point of the question. I told her she was missing the whole point of life There are no shortcuts to any place worth going Love is Rare, Life is Strange--Nothing Lasts And People Change


There are people in life you learn to live with, there are people you know you can't live without, and then there are people you know life wouldn't be the same without. someday everything will all make perfect sense. so for now, laugh at confusion, smile through the tears, and keep reminding yourself that everything happens for a reason

sometimes in life no matter how hard u try you will end up still failing not because it was all your fault just because u are only responsible for your own actions and if ppl work against u nothing good will come out of it !

Promises mean everything, but after they are broken, sorry means nothing Knowledge speaks, but wisdom listens and you should always Appear weak when you are strong, and strong when you are weak

Meeting you was fate, becoming your friend was a choice, but falling in love with you was beyond my control but The worst feeling you'll ever feel is sitting next to the person who means the world to you knowing that you mean nothing to them Nobody is worth your tears, and the one who is won't make you cry

Sometimes you have to smile...
Pretend everything's okay.
Hold back the tears,
And just walk away

Look for opportunities. ..not guarantees Dreaming of the person you want to be is wasting the person you already are

my random thoughts....

shame how some care only about themselves and forget others have feelings open up ur eyes some things slip away faster than the eye can see ...


dont kno what u have till its gone? absents makes the heart grow fonder ...

some just will let u down .. sad and disappointment runs through ur mind but u have to catch ur self and realize it was passed ur control

ull realize who ur true friends are throughout time.. good luck im sure u will be only able to count them on one hand

I will prepare and some day my chance will come, its when u start to loose faith that ur dreams slip away..


If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change the way you think about it

Love is a symbol of eternity. It wipes out all sense of time, destroying all memory of a beginning and all fear of an end.


its hard to tell someone u will walk away if that means its going to better their life choices but deep down hoping they will follow in ur footsteps if u go ur own way in the end the ppl who r ment to be there will get there maybe they will just take the long way dreams always end with the ones u love in them

small things always stand out in the end and the thoughtfulness that really make u smile

wondering were to go? close ur eyes, best things happen to those who are not looking for them have faith and put trust in gods hands


Hope is not the conviction that something will turn out well but the certainty that something makes sense, regardless of how it turns out, Hope is not a dream but a way of making dreams become reality

Experience is the name every one gives to their mistakes.


Life is full of beauty, but not getting sucked into thinking beauty is life complete difference looks are not everything because it fades and end ull only have the inner beauty.. if u r one to worry about looks ull look back and regret the more important things u missed out on

Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending live like today is the first day of the rest of ur life


listen to what ppl tell u but Hear the meaning within the words

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail, with patience to achieve it

Hope is not a dream but a way of making dreams become reality. Choices are the hinges of destiny

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. Any change, even a change for the better, is always accompanied by drawbacks and discomforts.


Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about the things that matter dont fall into a rut just because u can deal with it step out and take a leap of faith life is better happy and exciting rather than just here and boring ! too short to wonder if u are making a regret

the way some ppl think just amazes me ! thoughtful and kindhearted will get u far

only thing consistent in life is change handle each choice wisely, today is the first day of the rest of ur life

wise ppl can walk away in silence the power of ur mind is the strongest weapon god gave us

to love is to admire with the heart to admire is to love with the mind

happy moment? praise God. Difficult moment? Seek God. Quite moment? worship God Painful moment? trust God but every moment be thankful..

life is 10 percent what happens and 90 percent how u react to it ...


success is not final failure is not fatal its the courage that continues that counts in the end never giving up
