The greates gift we are given in life is the moments that make up our lives. In our lives we are the one who guides the decisions we make and the places we go. We can choose to go to places that make us happy or we can choose to succum to the darkness of our pain and downfalls. what are we going to choose?
My hope is that we will choose happiness and that we live our lives in a way that brings joy to our lives, but for everyone this is not the case. In some instances the pain and weight of the past has lead us to not see the magic in the new day, but only the pain of another hour of yet another day. I am not naive enough to believe that the world is a pleasant place where no suffering exists because I myself have been through rough times, but if we look at each moment of our lives as a chance to do better and be better then we are able to be filled with hope. Life takes us all on many different twists and turns, but there are times when we get to decide which direction we will take and we should never feel traped since life is ever evolving just like us as people. We all take wrong turns in life, but we are also able to grow from those experiances and through our rough times we are able to appreciate the good times we were able to experiance.
so look not onto life as a set steady path, but as any ever evloving maze that we must walk through challenging our selves and the people we think we are knowing along the way that we will need to make adjustments to our original plan, but accepting this fact and embarcing it :)

Letting God In
As I sit here and look on to the highway filled with wizzing cars I can physically see the craziness of the world outside. I our lives we are always in a rush to get anywhere, but for what? We rush and rush and push ourselves all for what satisfaction? To be the best? To have what others desire? But why can't we just take some time to spend alone and in silence with God? We don't spend enough time with God in our society. He is there for us at all times to infinity yet many fail to realize this fact. He is the one person who we don not need to convince to love us or impress with our worldly possessions yet he is the one being we all seem to forget about the most. In our world God often times seems in opposition as we convince oursleves that possessions matter and we should do whatever we want when we want to. Immediate gradification is all that most people are after not long lasting happiness that we can find in God. I watch the cars and think if only life could go at a slower pace and people could learn to appreciate what God offers them everyday...LIFE. I feel the world needs a savoir like God for people to believe in and strength them for the life they face everyday. God's love needs to be spread and this light should be found in each of us. Through our light we can let sunshine into people's lives and by doing so into our world as well. This wizzing cars don't know the love they can feel along with the happiness they will find in God. By looking for the sunshine of God's love people can find true and lasting happiness.
