Yeah….yeah I am still feeling ” loved up” this morning….. so  many people have died that over the last few years that I am REALLY just grateful to be alive…..

Love is a very powerful GIFT that the human race was given and we have so disrespectfully taken the gift for granted…… we have LIFE because of LOVE!

Because for God so loved the WORLD….that he GAVE his ONLY begotten son! That is love…. it was done FREELY by choice….

I was sent this link below  this morning and I cried because it was so nicely done!!!

Talk about feeling goose bumps! Yikes….I surely did with this one as well  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4VmcCm58O8&feature=related

Yes, love is very important in our life…without love there is no life… and with NO LIFE…. you cannot experience joy, peace, love, happiness, success etc.

People it is not a cliche’ when songwriters make songs talking about people dying of broken hearts… I dont know how people cant believe that… when your heart is broken it can cause you not to tend to yourself and get you NOT in your right mind…

you can also become sleep deprived, stop eating, stop drinking, ( which can affect your body even the more if you are on any medications )  staying in the bed / the house, ( your body NEEDS sunlight ) a great deal of people dont know that …..

Pray, support, believe, endure, stand firm with those that you love… it is IMPERATIVE to give people their flowers while they can still see them…hold them and smell them!

 Do you ever wake up feeling just STONE COLD  amazingly blessed? Well I am NOT being silly when I ask that question because not until last year in April did I ” START “ having those moments! It sounds strange maybe to some but like I have stated before……..not until last year, I discovered that is when I started truly living.

I was so over consumed with church politics, church activities, positions and networking that I missed almost half of my life!

GEESH… Thank goodness for “waking up” in enough time to enjoy the other HALF of my life while I still can……..

Death is NOT prejudice at all!…..It does not worry about what you look like, how rich or poor you are, what social class you represent, what skin color you are, what religion you follow, what happened to you as a child, if you are smart or mentally challenged, who you know, what you have, what neighborhood you reside in etc…..

To be totally frank…. I now feel like a teenager who just started high school and have soo many dreams, hopes and aspirations via LIFE! Life is a gift that should be used in a productive manner and in doing so has the awesome possibility of blessing others,  giving you much joy / happiness and edifying God.

Glad my day was blessed…… I completed a great deal of tasks today starting with 4 DIFFERENT Camps to send my son to starting in May and ending in August!

This will be our first time away from one another via multiple times BUT all of the camps are  Christian based, educational and promotes alot of morals, ethics and values that I teach in my home……

Also the biggie : MALE MENTORSHIP!!! My little man has not single ONE (consistent) MALE in his life….. Yes, no father, brother or uncle…..

Two weekends in May
One week in June
Two weeks in July
One week in August

So see ya Jared! Lol

It will grant me with a little bit of MOMMY time…… I wil be able to write hime letters, send cards, pictures and he can make phone calls….. Whew…I feel bad for feeling soooooo excited!

Hey, im excited and NOT ashamed! Year round I tote him to baseball, soccer, music, martial arts, swimming,basketball AND church 4 out of 7 days a week!…….

The martial arts he took since his was 4 years old and now he is almost 10 and he just asked to take a break from his Tae Kwon Do! Ummmm…….surely im happy and to be honest after 5 years of being there 3 days a week, we BOTH need the break!

and yes I said year round for all of these activities but basketball..that is only from January to April!

Single Parenting is a Huge job and this is the first time im rewarding myself in the form of TIME ALONE!

Nothing too major besides that he has really helped me throughout the last 20 years of my life that’s all! LOL  He is also a pastor which also kinda helps huh?  Just kidding but his wisdom and guidance has always blessed me and im grateful. Especially talking with him today about my 18 1/2 year old twins who has LITERALLY stressed me out since they were 12 1/2 years old!  However, God is simply amazing and I cant understand His ways but I sure nuff can follow them… I trust God so I will be ok!

I often think of you at this age regardless if you are almost 19 years of age…. I have to recall these PAST moments so that I dont cry via the PRESENT moments…

I have planted the seeds of CHRIST into your life…and I am trusting and believing that you will let Him in before you experience any more strife…..

 I wonder EVERY DAY not “why or how” you chose your path………….. but yes my dear, I do wonder  ”WHEN” you will stop the path that you chose….

Everyday, Everyday, Everyday, Everyday……

I try to do better, be an example, practice patience, dont roll my eyes, dont call people names like IDIOT, dont pass, dont jip, dont honk my horn uncontrollaby, ride peoplrs bumper, drive slow on purpose to irritate the car that wont stop riding my bumper and im soo soo ashamed to say that the list actually could go on!

Whew…..im sure MY FACE tells how I feel right now in this CITY of people that drive like they reside down South in a rural area or the country!

Welp…..on a happy note, Im having a good day.

I can almost see it
That dream I am dreaming
But there’s a voice inside my head saying
“You’ll never reach it”

Every step I’m taking
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking

But I gotta keep trying
Gotta keep my head held high

There’s always gonna be another mountain
I’m always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I’m gonna have to lose

Ain’t about how fast I get there
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb

The struggles I’m facing
The chances I’m taking
Sometimes might knock me down
But no, I’m not breaking

I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I’m gonna remember most, yeah
Just gotta keep going

And I, I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on

‘Cause there’s always gonna be another mountain
I’m always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I’m gonna have to lose

Ain’t about how fast I get there
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb, yeah!

There’s always gonna be another mountain
I’m always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Somebody’s gonna have to lose

Ain’t about how fast I get there
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb!

Keep on moving, keep climbing
Keep the faith,
It’s all about, it’s all about the climb
Keep the faith, keep your faith
