Ya know, I think I'm going to take some time away from the computer.  I'm having trouble in my walk and I feel I am relying on the computer too much.  I'm praying I can actually stay away long enough for something to happen.  I've said before that I am getting away only to come back a few days later.  I'm really aching for some truth in my life.  We'll see what happens.  Its just really hard to get away because this is usually the only time I get to talk to people.  I'm a people person, yet I keep to myself.  I enjoy being around people, but I'm not too open about letting people really get to know me.  Probably out of fear.

So I'm hoping to get to rip the closet out of my room.  That's pretty much the high point right now. lol. 

I signed up for a CPR & First Aid class for the summer. 

Pray for my brother, he's got a tooth bothering him pretty bad and doesn't have the money to get it fixed or pulled.

I had an awesome time last night hanging with a friend and playing basketball, video games, and darts.  Who knew a Ford F-150 Lightning could be a Chevy Corvette (not an ordinary one, one that is completely been beefed up)??  Well, I do and now, my friend does.  Ahahahahahaha, it was great.  Don't mess with a Ford baby!  This was a much needed great night. 

The room still is not done.  Just as it starts to get done, I change my mind and do something else.  It's great.  I'm borderline psychotic/public school teacher.  LOL. 

I will be meeting with my host teacher for the fall semester sometime next week.

So much to do, so little time.  A lot of decisions to make, pray for wisdom and understanding. 

               In His Peace,

So I asked the question, "What do you people want from me?" yet I realized last night that God was the one I should be asking.  So I did.  Yesterday was a good day full of cleaning.  Not in my room, but other rooms needed it too. lol.  So last night, as I was watching some TV, there was a girl that reminded me of someone I once was interested in.  Old memories came up and yadda yadda.  The thing was, a relationship never happened between us and I thought it was my fault and I have blamed all sorts of other things too.   I basically feel guilty because not long after this, she began falling away from God and I feel responsible.  So many things I wished I could go back and change.  Ever have those days, when you just want to go back and change something?  God keeps showing me that by doing this, I am saying that I am the one in control, not him.  I'm not in control, God is.  Granted, this doesn't give me a free pass to make stupid decisions, but it can help (should help) to give me a peace. 

There have been a lot of things from the past that I haven't left there.  So many moments I continue to hang onto and I think, in turn, miss out on what God has for me today.  Its so hard.  I look around at what others have had and have today and it hurts.  I didn't grow up in a Christian home.  I didn't have godly people supporting me and helping minister and mentor to me everyday.  My family still is not where they need to be with God.  I know this from my daily interactions with them.  *big sigh* Seriously, this hurts more than you can ever know.  So there are my thoughts.  A little insight to something you would never know unless I told you.  I keep the pain locked inside and hide it with a smile.
