my heart races faster than my mind can think
while everything lies out of balance

what do I do?
pressure is caused by the ones so dear and precious
so I try to remain unfearful
but Lord knows fear is all that lives here
and courage hasnt knocked at the door once

so again what do I do?
when opportunity for someone else keeps peeping through my window
how can I get him to find the key to the one that shelters me?
and how do I learn to trust this instinct that is telling me to run?
when Im on a freeway with heavy traffic
where's my magic

does prosperity come to those who wait?
or the opposite
because as long as I have been on this swing I should be higher than the mountains
almost hearing the angels singing
so I will stop and come back down to earth
because maybe its just that simple
or maybe not
or maybe just maybe my mind needs time to...think




In these times and at this moment, alot is happening in our world and sometimes we dont take out the time to get to know ourselves and what we really want. Remember that you have to remain in your time and stay prayerful. Your blessing will come, but just calm down and think and let God speak to you. As I type this to you I am also speaking to myself. Its not easy not knowing what lies ahead. I mean like no clue and you have everyone in your ear telling you what and how your life should go because of their past or maybe because they can see your beautiful story unfold. So again take the time to think things through and give yourself time. Im not saying dont take sound advice but really analyze your choices and options. The world is your hands not the other way around.

the wait. (poem)

which way is next?
to the south, east, north, or west
no
neither one of those directions can take me to my destination
or where I want to go
white picket dreams lay in the distance
but will I ever meet my dreams at my reality
pretty smiles and quiet stares lay on their faces
expectations are set too high
how can I really tell the real and the fake?
everything is upside down
confusion is knocking
first at a steady now harder
what do I do?
but wait.....

Question...?: Does anyone know...?

Whether or not JANELLE MONAE has any new music out?

Today's Bible Verse:

Though a mighty army surrounds me,my heart will not be afraid. Even if I am attacked, I will remain confident.Psalm 27:3 New Living Translation Bible

God is so awesome. Even when it seems like He has given up all hope on you, He comes in and happens for you!

i think i know now.

Hello you guys. How are you all?...Me Im good just counting down the days til I am home for winter break: Nov. 24-Jan. 5!!! (exactly 11 days! yay!) and I think I may know what I will be doing when I graduate. I have weighted out the options and I think I want to go straight to grad school but work on the side. I feel with the state of my life and how I am feeling right now, I need to go to grad school. Getting a job is hard and I have simply done all I can do in that department, so the decision is clear. I am going to grad school. Deadlines are looking pretty good right now. Most of the deadlines are at the end of my last semester, so I will have enough time to take all the necessary steps to apply and actually recieve a nice financial aid package.

Now I know what I need to focus on specifically and I can chill out a lil'.

What do you guys think? Am I making the right choice? Do you feel going to grad school is better than going out and finding a job or does it differ with the individual?

love.

And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.
Colossians 3:14

The message.



I have to admit that I am not doing so well with reading my bible daily or even often for that matter. I get so caught up in assignments, class, work, and social life that I put the one and only thing that allows me to do assignments, go to class, go to work, and have a social life on the back burner. I am so guilty...but I am going to get it together though.
Are any of you guilty of this? If so, what are you waiting for?? Go and read.:)

Bible Verse of Today

Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is life not more important than food and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life.

Matthew 6:25-27 New International Version

birds


ever wonder why birds were made to fly?
i have once or twice
i like to think it is there only way to escape what they cant endure
so they fly away
i ask you now
should this be the conclusion?
is this why as humans we werent made to fly
but more so made to endure and last
and perservere to the end
nothing is impossible and nothing is unbearable
because we were made to handle, maintain, and prevail

close

why is it the closer you get to something so great, wonderful, and beautiful, trouble always seems to find you? i guess its true what they say: you cant have the sunshine without the rain, and for every great thing, there is a price.

i need to get back to my sanity and just myself all together. i dont want to do anything. nothing right now excites me but nov. 24 (plane home!!! yay!) and may 1 (graduation). i am just so done with everything. i am just ready to spread my wings and fly away far far far far far away from here far away from here!!!

so many things are in the distance spiritually, physically, and mentally. this is why i am just so ready because i know good is on its way. i can just feel and taste it.

i have never been so alone, confused, and down in my life. i believe that if i survive this, i can survive any and every thing.

quote of today:Life is like an onion; you peel off one layer at a time and sometimes you weep. ----Carl Sandburg

60 Followers YAY!:)


Thank you all for following me. I really do appreciate it. I hope that you are here to still live....grow...and learn with me because I am doing the same.


These past two weeks have been so hectic and mind consuming. I just want to lay down and rest until I am tiredless. Senior year is no joke. I just want to graduate. Is that too much for me to ask for?


What university do you know that doesnt offer classes on a consistent basis, and then get mad at you, the student, for wanting to take a certain class because you have taken every class there is to take and you just need ONE more class! I just dont understand at all. You have to almost bind over backwards, do a flip, spit out your lungs, and die and come back just to take a class that should be offered to you at no consequence and in the first place. Why Why Why? I just need to know.


Im over it now but I just had to rant because maybe some of you are going through the same or similar, or just some thing.


Word of advice: get ready for the storm because it is going to come!
