is different bad? is different wrong? if the same hasn't worked out so many times before than wouldn't different be welcomed? i would hope so! when something is too good to be true it usually is, yes, but can something seem that without being so? an exciting new adventure seems in order for it to be "true" it must be the "same" as every other adventure, but other adventures failed!
maybe the mountain that was attempted over and over again was just from the wrong side or not the "right" one to climb...or the wrong timing, the preperation wasn't completly there---timing has proven to be more than it's chalked up to be.... this mountain seems to not have too many boulders to move and the ones that are there are worth the effort to climb over. don't give up on the mountain, don't see the immediate struggle as bad, but as a path to something good-the beautiful view at the top of the mountain. i have faith, shakey though it may be it is strong but i cannot do it alone but i am strong to help cary knowing at some point i myself will need to be carried.
I am excited, I am true, I am cautious, but I am willing and I see the top of the mountain....give me your hand and let me give you strength as you unknowingly have given me and this may turn out to be the best mountain we have ever climbed because of that glorious view from the top

good things...
Well other than the fact that my job thinks that I don't need sleep, things that I think to be good are happening. First of all My wonderful friend Alison and I found a new place to live!! eventhough we wanted a place for ourselves, we're moving in to a house of a family that goes to Sandals. So startng September 1st I'll be living in Riverside and NOT commuting from L.A.!! and I don't care if you care or not but I think that is wonderful!!! I can't wait. downfall, it's a bit of a zoo with 2 dogs and 4 cats...and Alison has a dog, so it's 3 dogs and 4 cats...my nose will not be too happy with that.
Also, I got to see good friends this past week. I miss my friends so I'm happy when I get to see them. Days have turned into a big blur and I feel so stressed because I don't really sleep but once I figure out how to sleep, I'll be fine. Now off to care for the babies here at home *yawn*

Let's see...
Hmmm, there's more to write than I have time for so I'll try to do this as quickly as possible...
First off I have to write an ode to my mommy. Some people think I have a big heart, after a series of events that happened this week, I must say "I get it from my momma" (I believe there's a song like that somewhere) Anyway, at my parents church (mine too on occasion) there is this group of kids that live with their grandmother because their mom is on drugs and can't take care of them and all that jazz. It is quite sad but I've seen God working in those kids lives and they really have had an "extended family" through that church. Anyway, the oldest has reached the wise old age of 15 and decided that he knows everything and doesn't need a house with rules and ran away from home for two weeks. So the kid is out there with his gang member friends and no one really know where he is on a day to day basis. You honestly would have thought it was my own flesh and blood brother that ran away the way my mommy and I worried about that boy. More so my mom. She really had sleepless nights and was on the phone with the boy's grandmother everyday that that boy was not home.
When they finally got a hold of him, my mom saw to it that she talked to him, not to yell but to know his side of the story. and she talked to him for hours. She made sure that he got other members of the church to talk to and...well, I can honestly say that he did think that no one cared about him and he now saw otherwise. This isn't the first time my mom has done that...When she says that she is concerned, she is GENUINELY concerned and she doesn't rest until things are better. Just the mom in her I guess...
Well that took longer than I though and now I have to get ready for work...
