Princesses aren't Perfect.

It's a rough patch, we'll get through it But we keep going down like a bottomless pit The pain worsens as the days go by Sometimes I find myself asking, "God, why?" When will this hurt end? When are we going around the bend? When is it morning, when is it light? It just feels like a long cold night It'll come after the light of the moon. The will sun shine very soon At the end of the path will be a beautiful done But til that day comes I'll be waiting for the sun.

I know I shouldn't rub this in or anything.. But without my family, I don't know where I would be right now. My mom, dad, and brother.. we're all so close. We laugh together all the time, we make fun of each other always, we're so close it's like PDA where ever we go. We LOVE each other. Then you throw my cousins, aunts, and uncles in to the mix. And it's a loving MADHOUSE. Just check out my FACEBOOK video -- "I like to make-out with my family" My new camera.. My new pictures.. don't judge the upcoming family photographer, thanks. Without my family, the love, the care, the fun.. I'd be a mess. My life wouldn't be put together nor as composed. FOR ME, without my family.. I feel like I am nothing.

Love sometimes need to be extravagant. To go all out. It sometimes needs to set aside the technicalities and just bless because it wants to.. How about putting your heart into it, how about adopting a new level of love that actually wants to fulfill every dream and desire you possibly can. You thought life was over when a certain setback took all the wind out of your sails. You broke down and cried out to Him. You prayed like you'd never prayed before. And though it wasn't easy getting back up and walking on, you somehow survived. He met you with His promised peach "which surpasses all comprehension" (Philippians 4:7) and kept you on your feet. [Your love may really want your time. She may really want your attention. She may really want to be treated like a lady, to know that her husband considers her his greatest treasure. She may really want to see in your eyes a love that chooses to be there no matter what. HE may want your respect. He may really want you to acknow...

How often do you say you're a Christian? How often do you turn to God through problems? How often do you give up to God your finances? How often do you give your problems to him (sex, drugs, smoking, pornography, etc) How often do you give your attitude to him (temper, pride, jealous, selfish, etc) How often do you pray? How often do you praise Him? How often do you thank Him? How often do you read the bible? How often do you honor? How often do you love your enemies? How often do you love? How often do you share your experiences of God with others? How often do you show that you're a follower to Jesus? How often do you? I'm not a saint, I probably say I do those not too often at all. It sucks to say it, but you need to recognize it first, you need to confess, you need to repent, you need forgiveness from HIM.

From the moment you unpack for your honeymoon, the real process of unpacking one another, unpleasantly discovering how sinful and self each of you could be. Pretty soon your mate started to slip off your pedestal, and you off of theirs. The forced closeness of marriage began stripping away your public facades, exposing your private problems and secret habits. Welcome to fallen humanity. Love reminds you that your relationship is too valuable to allow it to self-destruct and that your life for your spouse is more important than whatever you're fighting about. "ME" Boundaries are rules you personally practice on your own. 1. I will listen first before speaking. "everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger" James 1:19 2. I will deal with my own issues up-front "why do you look at the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye" (Matthew 7:3) 3. I will speak gently and keep my voice down. ...

If twitter was unlimited, just for today, this is what it would say: I'm 21, and hate my job of 3 years. 2009 and this current year is teaching me patience, guess what, I failed again today. Took me til day 4 with this job that I hate it again. I know I'm upset when I want to complain and make excuses. I hate people that complain, I hate people that make excuses. But now I want to. Wednesday: I worked late, but had to prepare for my presentation and for school. So, instead stayed up late to work on everything. Thursday: School, then work right after, and ditched CLASS to stay at work. Friday: Worked late again, and didn't make it to my friend's going away party, I was way too tired (which was why I couldn't go to the Book Club Meeting, thank goodness they changed that til next week, they must love me) Saturday: Worked late again, can't take a nap, canceled going to the bridal expo with Thuy, can't plan my lesson for high school ministry (sorry guys, I've...

It's been too long, I've kept more of a private journal, because lately my life has been more secret, more hiding.. I haven't really told anyone about anything, when people ask how I am? I like to avoid the question and turn it so that the people just talk about themselves and I'll just listen. Sometimes lately though I won't even listen anymore, it's just like I don't care about my life, nor do I care about the life of others. I want to.. But right now, my life and my priorities are the most important, I can say that since the new year started, I've complete lost who I am, what I'm all about. It's part of growing up. I'm entering into my 2nd to last year of school, and this is when you're suppose to step it up a notch but I'm slowing down. This is the year were there are just too many close deaths to count and I'm emotional not stable anymore. It's the time were this recession is hitting home, and hitting home hard. It's ...
