Butterfly

Caterpillar in the tree….tell me who you want to be….you can’t go far but you can always dream…..butterfly fly away…..

Ok so that came from a Miley Cyrus song and I am not a fan of her new trying to group up life style, but I do like that song and think it is cute. Also, appropriate for my life right now haha.

I am working really hard to get into the nursing program but it is a highly competitive program. I wonder if I will get accepted somewhere. I have been looking for work but it is hard to find a job that works with school. I am already worried about making a B in my anatomy class without a job so I can only imagine how much harder it would be with a job.

There are only two things I can do about the situation. Try my best and pray to God. Who knows what the future holds for me….I know I shouldn’t wish my life away but two years down the road and finished with college sounds great to me 

Saying Goodbye

Over the weekend we lost a young woman in our community. She was like a daughter to my aunt and uncle and my heart breaks for them during this time. I have realized that the way I cope is by writing.

We never know what day will be our last. If we will be 81 or 18. We need to realize that we are not invincible and we need to be careful where we go and what we do. What is more important is that we need to tell people how we feel. Don't leave things unsaid. If you love someone tell them. If someone has made a difference in your life let them know. We never know when our time will come so be sure that you live life to the fullest.

Don't speed when you drive. Really it will only get you there a few minutes faster...is it really worth it? Don't drink and drive. Don't text and drive, is it so important that you can't wait till you get to a stop light, stop sign or home?

I chose this picture because what better way to remember how fragile life is then to look at a baby.

Respect

So I have been meaning to write a new blog for a while but alas time has not been kind to me. My day consist of waking up and studying about an hour, go to school for a few hours, come home and study a few more hours, then read in the Bible for an hour and go to bed. So here is a real quick spill on a topic someone chose for me on respect.

Respect should it be earned or freely given? I was watching Glenn Beck the other day and he quoted some man who I can’t recall at the time that said “Respect should not be earned and is where we need to start.”

I completely agree. Who do you respect? Your elders? Teachers? Parents? Boss? We should respect everyone. We are all humans and we should seek the good in each other instead of just assuming the worse. Yes sadly there are bad people out there but all of humanity is not bad.

I consider myself too trusting at times but really if someone has not given me a reason not to trust them then why should I have trouble trusting them? Why do they have to earn trust and respect?

Now these are some serious things in life trust and respect. They should be held high in importance. When someone does something that they know is wrong or lies to me then yes they will loose respect and trust in my eyes and it will take a lot of work to gain it back. However I choose to respect and trust and give people the benefit of a doubt until they show me they need to be treated otherwise.

What to say???

I have been meaning to do a new post but I have not really thought of a new topic. Maybe when my summer class is over I will have time to think of something besides school work. On the other hand if anyone has any ideas of what I should write about please let me know. Oh and the flower picture is a flower that is one stem with two flowers on it. I wish I could have found a good angle to show it but they just looked odd.
