Friends and the Laughter

No joke I love my friends.
They love to make fun of me.
Even if its in front of half the staff on the internet.
I am happy that is was after I left, and they used nicknames.
Thanks Mo for e-mailing me the proof that some jokes don't ever die.
I am not being sarcastic if anyone out there doesn't know the joke.
I have never been the source of a untrue rumor that turned into a joke, so thanks guys.
I want you to know that I am having a lot of fun, and you guys make me laugh every time the joke goes to the next level.
Who knows by next month we will be making fake arrangements for my fake wedding and putting announcements in the local paper.

Morals and Veggies

I have been a Vegetarian now for over a year. And just about everyone (except maybe a hand full of people) that has talked to me for more than five min. after finding out has to ask me why, but they don't stop there. They ask me really ridiculous questions about whats wrong with meat, and why not try doing this instead...

What most people fail to see is that being a Vegetarian is not just a decision, not just a lifestyle, but a moral belief.

I grew up eating meat, and taking stand here and there what I would eat and I wouldn't like veal, and pate because of the obvious ways of harnessing these delicacies. But I am not against eating meat, I do eat meat, but I stand for the treatment of animals while they are still apart of this earth we all call home. God created the animals and gave man dominion over them, but I don't think that God had in mind that one day man would decided to abuse animals for mass production.

I am not trying to sell you being a Vegetarian, but I am trying to let you know that I am not wrong in MY beliefs. I don't ask you after finding out your Jewish "If you were locked in a room with a Christian, Buddhist, and a Atheist and they told you that you had to convert to one of their religions if you wanted to leave the room, and if you don't convert they kill you." I don't ask you if your gay "Well have you tried being straight?? That the opposite sex is so much more fun than the same sex, you are missing out on so much fun."

Then why am I constantly being paraded with questions and statements to make me feel stupid and like I am wrong?? I have a right to love, respect, and honor MY feelings. I don't try and push you to be a vegetarian, why are you pushing me to eat hormone induced meat??

God gave me a heart for all animals intrinsically. I am sorry that you don't feel the same, but I am not sorry that I feel the way I do. So next time you have the urge to questions someone's beliefs, think about where your heart is when your words come out.

Women are an awesome specimen for God's Glory.

This week I have been a witness and a participant for the Glory of God through women power.

Last weekend Heather Palacios gave a sermon at Flamingo Road Church on the importance of doing things today that blew me away, and several others around the world. Then a group of women who were moved and inspired by her on staff at FRC threw a surprise party in honor the amazing work God had done through her that weekend. She was so surprised and touched that she was loved and appreciated not only by God for being His tool, but by her fellow peers.

Last night I had the honor of being the day of wedding coordinator for a friend that I hold dear to my heart as a role model of a beautiful woman with extraordinary faith, love, and strength (among other traits). While waiting for her cue to start her walk down the aisle and while listing to worship music, amongst all the hustle a bustle that was going on around her, she stopped and sang worship to her God. She was standing there in her wedding dress, about to be married, and she stood there with her hands raised, her eyes closed, and worshiping the God who has blessed her with a wonderful life because of her faith and obedience.

These women are the perfect picture of the woman I want to be in Christ, a tool for God to use to bless others. God is amazing on His own, He in no way needs us, but because He loves us He honors and blesses us as tools in His plans for His earth. God is awesome and woman, created for His own devices, is an awesome specimen of Faith, Love, Hope, Strength, Perseverance, and Wonder of what God has planed for us on earth.

My First Contest.

So I hear about this blog contest that people have from time to time. So here is a picture of one of my favorite movies.

If you are the first to name the movie that this picture I will buy you a cup of Starbucks.
And if you can name the actors in this picture I will buy you a sweet to go with it.

I'm a Sappy Chick

Ok, so I am not ashamed to admit it. I love sappy Love Stories. My favorite movie of all time, Ever After, favorite story of all time, Pride and Prejudiced. No matter how many times I see Ever After, or read/watch Pride and Prejudice I still am moved. I know I am only setting myself to fall when love knocks on my front door but I can't see it because I have a sappy romance in my view. But who said that my Adam can't be my Mr Darcy too?? I know God made my Adam perfect for me and vice versa, so I know that my Adam will be as sappy as me, or at least the male version of me of my sappyness. So know what, I will continue to go weak in the knees every time I think of Danielle Debarack and Utopia with her Prince. And I will always cry a little when I think of Mr. Darcy's determined love for a women who hated him more than anyone else on earth, only to turn around and love him just as much back. So deal with it!!!


P.S. if you have not seen these movies and you are a girl you need to watch them to really learn how to feel loved.
if you are a boy and have never seen these movies watch them to learn how to really love a woman, and to understand her. i always say that Pride and Prejudice is the secret to every womans heart.
