"Be very careful if you make a woman cry, because God counts her tears. The woman came out of a man's rib. Not from his feet to be walked on .. Not from his head to be superior ... but from the side to be equal! Under the arm to be protected, & next to the heart to be loved." I got this from a friend's facebook status. I love this!!!

Things I learned in 2009
6:18 PM | 0 Comments
So, here starts the list of things I have learned.
1. I think the number one thing that I have learned this year is that there are still people in the world that care for those that are hurting. There may be a lot of immoral, high profile people in the world, but when it counts, and tragic things happen, you find out who has what it takes to be a friend. When David died, Sarah went through a wave of emotions that no one will ever be able to comprehend. I saw and felt the love of people that had no clue who Sarah, or David was. The love and outpouring of emotion was wonderful!
2. The second thing that I learned is that assuming things lead to a few tears and ruined friendships. Unfortunately, I had to learn this one the hard way. I went through a few months of stupid, pointless emotional trash that was completely unnecessary and completely avoidable. I hope to use this lesson in the future.
3. On that note, the third thing I learned this year is that although you may think that something is wonderful and exactly what you want, what God has in store in so much better.
4. I am where I am supposed to be right now. Although life is sometimes difficult, I really feel that I am doing what I am supposed to do. It is hard sometimes to see my friends get married and have kids, living their life, their dream. But I find comfort in knowing that the harder something is to achieve, the greater the reward is.
5. I am constantly amazed and in awe of the ways that God takes care of me. Through all the late nights, empty bank accounts, negative thoughts and tears (oh, there were many, many tears!), I made it through the year stronger and more confident in my abilities.

the spider
10:54 PM | 0 Comments
so... funny story of the day: I was driving home from work and saw a spider crawling across my windshield. I thought it was on the outside, and quickly realized that it was INSIDE my car!!! As it neared the driver's side door frame I started to get nervous. I remembered that I had some napkins in a bag from dinner and grabbed them. (by the way, there was a cop next to me at this time) So, at the red light, I decide to try and kill the spider. BAD IDEA!! I knocked the spider off onto ME!! The light turned green and I was so freaked out that I peeled out onto 518 and whipped into the nearest parking lot. I threw the car into park and got out, took off my jacket and started dusting off my self. I had no clue where the spider went and I wanted to make sure that it was NOT on me!!! As I was looking like a fool, trying to get an imaginary spider off of me, I noticed that there was still one shop open... and the guys were all staring at me and laughing! GREAT! Not only did I have a spider IN my car, hiding, waiting to bite me, BUT.....there were three guys thinking that I was some crazy woman. One guy came out, asked if I was okay, and looked in my car for the spider (yes, I was that freaked out). I got back in my car, only after he assured me there was no spider, and came home. I am still itching and swiping at the spider that I can feel crawling on me 
.
. Hope you have a great day (or night)!!
Love and Be Loved!
This past week has been insane and unbelievably long. From learning that my best friends fiancé passed away to trying to get back in to the swing of things, life has been anything but normal. Through all of this, however, I have seen small blessings and tiny miracles. I have seen people embrace a family that they have never met. I have seen vendors have hearts of gold and give refunds back for a wedding spoiled by tragedy. I have heard many voices lift up those hurting and talking time out of their day to let someone know they loved them. I have truly seen the family of God this week. It was a refreshing change from all the "bad" news displayed on the tv...
