Let's Talk…

So for the greater population there is the general consensus that women are complicated and we do not know what we what.

Newsflash: We are not. We just happen to not live in a perfect world but one with frustrations and it's contributing complications. Considering this it would then make sense that women also would think that men can be and are just as complicated.
Sure, we are not always sure of exactly what we want all the time and men please admit even if not to us but to yourselves that sometimes neither do you. We don't know whether we wnat that peppermint bonbon or rocky road icecream or that Aston Martin instead of the Bugatti Veyron.

But think about it a second...
Why do we each think of the other sex as complicated (the term gender now means more than just two things)? My opinion? A chronic lack of communication. I know what I want. You know what you want. Next step: talk about it.

What's the point in skirting about each other pretending to be mind readers but failing horribly and only end up making things worse by acting on assumptions. Talk it out. No matter how hard it may be. Maybe the next time you ask "honey what's wrong" you'd not just get back "nothing" and have the issue is swept under the rug from which it is going to stink eventually, or one partner is going to get even more upset because they feel the other should know (chale chale
women...men... WE WERE NOT GIVEN THE ABILITY TO READ MINDS. But we were given mouths to talk and ears to listen and finally brains to process and understand and then solve.

*sigh* I tire saf.

And just so you know this doesn't just apply to romantic relationships but to them all.
Talk it out. The first time will be hard and tempers may fly but it would get easier and you'll be better off. Do it before you simply do not talk at all about anything and the covered up wound just festers and rots and then a limb has to be cut off (Please forgive the graphic imagery).

…Have the best day y'all.

If You Want Me To - Ginny Owens

The pathway is broken
And The signs are unclear
And I don't know the reason why You brought me here
But just because You love me the way that You do
I'm gonna walk through the valley
If You want me to

Cause I'm not who I was
When I took my first step
And I'm clinging to the promise You're not through with me yet
so if all of these trials bring me closer to you
Then I will walk through the fire
If You want me to

It may not be the way I would have chosen
When you lead me through a world that's not my home
But You never said it would be easy
You only said I'd never go alone

ya oh oh no

So When the whole world turns against me
And I'm all by myself
And I can't hear You answer my cries for help
I'll remember the suffering Your love put You through
And I will go through the valley If You want me to

Amen …Amen

On a thursday night…

*Big sigh of … satisfaction?? No, but its not a negative emotion so :)*

So we are a fortnight into 2010! 14 days into finding out how well we are going to keep to our resolutions. I must confess I have already thoroughly failed with mine and mine include having smaller, more easily attainable weekly resolutions!! Gosh. Ah well. I pray its just the laziness of being on vacation that's keeping me from achieving anything but drama.

[Side Note: Fireflies - Owl City just started playing and the resulting smile on my face with my hands up in the air whilst singing heartfully (my own word) along was a sight to see. Haha! Anyways back to what I was saying…]

Music is such an essential, sexy part of life…
Ok, no really moving on.

So recently I commented that whoever it was who said life is not a race either was no where near the back of the race or was really truly undeniably happy with ever it was they were doing with their lives and managed to learn to not care about what the world thought.
KUDOS TO YOU MY DEAR FELLOW!!
Those of us who are surrounded by people who seem to be sprinting towards some goal they have set chale…I have to go find myself some running shoes. It's the fool who keeps walking when everyone else is running who gets caught up in the coming floods.

Finally I acknowledge the fact that I am surrounded by people who KNOW (for sure) what it is that they want to be doing and are doing just that. There are the people setting up LLPs and NPOs, starting designer labels, helping kids, talking about the entertainment industry, designing ads, managing an entire company, etc, etc and I realized that what was common with all of them is the fact that they have a PASSION and LOVE for and BELIEF in whatever it is they are doing. The words are capitalized because lower case would not have done justice to the extent to which they feel these things. Each and every one of those people that I met did not consider what it was they were doing a job. Yes it was work but not a job. They shone with that passion when something had been achieved, when they saw the result of their work and realized just how good it was.

[Side Note: Ok, Seattle - Mary Mary started playing and with what I'm talking about I teared up a little… yes, yes, I'm a sap I know. :). Back to it]

I'd sit back and wonder what it is I'm doing with my life. Yes, I'm in college working towards a B.A. in Comp Sci but I know that this is not my passion, whatever it is. And I wonder: Would I ever find this passion? What if I don't? What then? Would I be doomed to wander in search of that passion squatting in the mean time in mediocre employment so I can pay my bills…???

At this point, the closest I've gotten to what I think may be me actively working on a passion is iStandAbove… The Xpect Leadership Program (check it out, there are over 600 pix!!); the slight frowns on the kids' faces as they listened intently to a presenter, the smiles when they understand something… aaahh. :D
Passion: the elixir that give your heart wings!

What is your passion?

Philippians 4: 6

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God"

Father,

I search for You and for comfort in Your word and try to do as You command. But I have still ranted, raved, talked, yelled, prayed and cried. I am tired. Tired of being anxious, tired of not knowing, tired of trying without result. So yet again I turn to You, in prayer and petition, with thanksgiving for Your blessings and mercies. Take this anxiety and worry from me. Please.
Psalm 5.

Amen.
