I've decided to change my interest now because I have changed a lot since my last entry. Don't get me wrong...I still LOVE to SLEEP. I still love to sing (especially at church) and dance. I have become more interested in bettering myself. Now that I'm done with school (or UCR should I say), I need to get back to being more active in church and less active in things that hender me from my goals. That means cleansing myself of any thing, or person, that has ever distracted me from accomplishing what God has planned for me. It's a great challenge for myself and with the help of the Lord, I will succeed.
"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me"
Philippians 4:13
I suggest to everyone that plans on hitting up NYC soon, go to the Cafeteria on 17th & 7th and get the Macaroni & Cheese....ITS DA BUSINESS!!!!
(Summer 2006 Vacation Pics below)
Now on a serious note...I know that all of the things that I have been given were only through the grace of God...I know that without Him there is no me...without Him there is no world...we would ALL be lost without Him...I know there are many of us that are lost in this world...(for instance certain people that want to destroy the "Free Country" called the United States)...but if we all continue to pray and have faith...He will set us free from the evils of the world...the evils called Terrorism, diseases, drugs, alcohol, weapons, lies, deceit, hate, betrayal, and so on...
************************************
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate...
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure...
It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us...
We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, handsome, talented and fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be?
Your playing small doesn..t serve the world.
There..s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won..t feel insecure around you...
We are born to manifest the glory that is within us.
It..s not just in some of us; it..s in everyone...
And as we let our own light shine, we consciously give other people permission to do the same...
As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others...
Marianne Williamson
Rest in Peace
