I went in not really to buy anything because the lines were to busy, but I went in to look and to wastes some time because I didn't want to be alone. I would rather be around a store full of strangers. As I went in a kind man with a bell greeted me and ask if I wanted to donate to help out some homeless kids. And I said no thanks. Mainly because I didn't have any cash. But then as I walked through the store I thought about it and realized how little I have given away this year. I mean I make more money then I ever have and yet I think I have given away less then ever before. Maybe this isn't completely true, because I feel like I have given myself away, my life, but I do get paid, and I have donated very little monetarily. It makes me sad. I feel like I don't have much to give and feel like I am empty with not much left to offer. But I want to change the way I think as well. I have been blessed with so much and want to give it back. God was so true when he said if you hold on to things you will loose it, but if you give it away you will get so much more. I feel like I need to start giving away more, so that I can once again be filled. I had the same feeling yesterday when I went into walmart.

ANYWAY, i like this post. I have these thoughts as well but i find solace in the fact that God is my judge, not man ya know. I feel like i have been living my life for far too long trying to find this balance because i wanted to please man....but i find so much more freedom knowing that God guides me and will let me know through the spirit. JUST SAYIN! whoa! this was not looking like this last night lol. ANYWAY, i like this post.

(i'm sure you don't always yell at stupid drivers,because i'm sure that there were times or even just one time in your life that you've been nice to a stupid driver.) in my opinion, the only thing that you should know is that you can always be what a person can possibly be. sometimes you're nice, sometimes you're mean, sometimes you're generous, sometimes you're greedy, sometimes you make other people smile, sometimes you annoy them and make them cry.. ..and maybe we can also conclude that it's a matter of mood..hehe ^_^ i always believe that we humans are consist of potentialities. we have the potential to be good, we have the potential to be bad, and we cannot ‘absolutize’ ourselves to be only good or bad.

I thank God everyday for giving me the desire to know who my sisters are because after many years I was finally able to get that answer. In fact the first time I saw them was my 21st birthday and nothing will ever replace that moment in my life. Keep following your heart about your sisters, I know at times it may not be easy, but continue to keep them in your heart and in your thoughts and prayers. I hope that this is an encouragement to you in your journey. Love you... Kayla PS...feel free to contact me if you wanna talk more! Hey girl…let me just say from experience that I have been there.

My only suggestion is taking things one day at a time..ya know, tomorrow isnt promised, and so each day we have in the now is special. There are great things on the horizon, but there are so many great things on the way to it. I think you will find someone as crazy as you are up in ROME (lol)! It may take sometime but at least you'll have matty and what a gift that is right?! hmm, All valid things to be concerned about i think.
