communication

I don't know if it's just me, but I'm starting to wonder.  Communication sounds so easy...everyone is doing it! :P  We can communicate in soo many different ways these days.  It should be easy right?  Everyone has cell phones and computers.  We can call, text, e-mail, skype, tweet, and those are just ways of communicating with technology.  We talk face to face, write letters, whisper, yell, we are practically communicating all the time, whether we realize it or not.  Our body language sends messages to people, if we are smiling, or frowning, looking relaxed, or uptight.  So how do we manage to miscommunicate?  We may hear, but do we always listen?  Everyone communicates differently...aaahhh it gets soo confusing sometimes.  Really wish I was better at it.  Just wanted to communicate that to the world :P

ABC's of Me :)..part II

G -Well, G is for G abriel, my German Shepherd pooch. H -What is the name of my favorite cat?   H ENRY of course... but we kind of have a love-hate relationship. I - My mother's name started with an I ... I sabel, also my niece's name :) J - Someone I regret knowing... a guy named J ustin. K -  Something I think is a little weird.   K issing on the mouth! L -  L ove, an emotional/feeling/principle I hope everyone can experience.

first impressions & so on & such forth

first impressions can either make you or break you.  it's almost impossible to undo what has been done during that first interaction.  when we are young we just don't realize how important it is to make good first impressions.  it's too bad!!..but i guess we learn. ....hate feeling obligated to people.  there are some people that i genuinely enjoy spending time with, and others...well...i wouldn't care if we spent a little less time with each other.  has nothing to do with liking or not liking people, just the quality of the time being spent with people is what makes the difference for me.  ugh...obligation....boooo.  don't get me wrong, i love people, i love getting to know people, and letting them get to know me...but there are just SOME that i don't really want to get to know me....vulnerable. speaking of vulnerability...still working on the whole trust thing.  hoping i can trust, wanting to trust, working on trusting.  there are only a ...

sometimes.someone.

life is so silly.  trying to figure it out, but i can't.  i never really understand why or how people and circumstances happen, and i can't say i always like them, but...SOMETIMES i do.  i'm not completely on board with the whole idea of "everything happens for a reason" theory, but i can go with that...SOMETIMES!  there some people that pop into our life's and pop out like a rabbit running from a fox.  there are other people that strangely push their way in..and either you end up loving them or despising them...and yet there are the ones that "just happen for a reason."  never being completely sure of the reasons behind those "things" that "happen for a reason."  i SOMETIMES have to just go with it.  life without other people in it would be so pointless.  i am really glad for the people i have in mine.  each one has a special place in my heart.  i try to love each of them and show them how i care, because i know tomorrow ...

Trust...

is it real? how do we know? gut feeling? we want to. how? who? vulnerable. scared. unsure. perspective. confusion. wondering. wishful. WHO ARE THEY?..REALLY! WHO ARE WE?...REALLY!? why? let down. mislead. uncomfortable. too comfortable. still unsure. whatever!!! let it be. honesty. LIARS! fake. real? Trust....can we truly trust in anyone or anything but God???  

Can't wait!

Defining Moment

                                                                    May 2009, Orlando, Florida This experience for me cannot even be put into words.  Knowing that I am covered by the blood of my Savior Jesus...there is nothing that compares to that peace.  Thankful for an awesome family and great friends who I know are always praying for me, and for all the support I have in them.  ♫ Yes...Jesus Loves Me ♫

Monday

L ucky me, I didn't have class today...kind of a nice little break.  The weekend just didn't really feel much like a weekend, so today I am taking the liberty of relaxing at home, cleaning, and getting ready for another week.  We drove over to Westchester, New York Saturday night to visit my brother-in-law, who was in from Chicago.  It was so nice to see family out here.  We hit up a Thai restaurant that didn't really feel "Thai-ish", but..it worked I guess, and after that we went to see Ides of March.  Interesting movie...I've seen better though :).  Sunday we got home in the afternoon and had some students over to make pizza and watch movies.  The rest of the evening was spent skyping a friend and relaxing with my husband a little bit.  The weather had been perfect the last few days, but with that brings the stink bugs and Japanese beetles...NOT cool!   Really looking forward to this week, because my teacher spent last week in S...

Don't Quit

hen things go wrong as they sometimes will, When the road you're trudging seems all uphill When the funds are low and the debts are high, And you want to smile, but you have to sigh, When care is pressing you down a bit -- Rest if you must, but don't quit. ife is strange with its twists and turns, As every one of us sometimes learns, And many a fellow turns about When he might have won had he stuck it out. Don't give up though the pace seems slow -- You may succeed with another blow. ften the goal is nearer than It seems to a fair and faltering man, Often the struggler has given up When he might have captured the victor's cup, And he learned too late when night came down, How close he was to the golden crown. uccess is failure turned inside out -- The silver tint of the clouds of doubt, And you never can tell how close you are, It may be near when it seems afar, So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit, -- It's when things seem w...
