| Why is it that we give power to people...power to affect our emotions and our attitudes and our lives? Why do we give power to these people...these people that we hardly even know or even if we do them very well?
You would think by now I would have learned that their are very few people you can actually trust with your heart...and I have learned it in the past...more times than once. Everytime I would then put up new walls in an attempt to not let it happen again. Then, time passes and I feel like it's ok to take the risk again, I go ahead and give out that power again...and sure enough...BAM. "Hello walls, it has been awhile...nice to see you again."
I read an article years ago that said that it is better to love with all that you are, than to hold back and be safe. Honestly...I don't know which is better...it seems that what I want to do, which is to not hold back, just gets me hurt. I hate putting up walls...but I am afraid of the hurt...it hurts. So, I put up walls and I don't let people in and they don't see the "real" me; they see what I want them to see, which IS a part of the "real" me and usually the part they will like. I don't know...I just don't know....................................................... | | |
| OK...so this is going to be where I will be doing most of my personal blogging. I am still keeping my Myspace, but that is more for really good aquaintences...this is where I will speak more about my life and my feelings. I just don't want any and everyone reading that much about me. OK...so enough about that. Since I have last written...a lot has happen (obviously since it has been over 9 months...heck I could've had a kid in that amount of time.) I am no longer at New Tribes for bible school. I need to re-evaluate what I want to do for furthering my education..I am considering pursuing my Masters in Theology part-time. I am currently living in Waukesha and working full-time. I like my job for the most part...it is still a job and there are times I would rather be elsewhere. I can't complain though, my boss is great and I get paid pretty well. I have been playing at a coffee shop here in Waukesha about once a month, give or take one or two weeks. It is a lot of fun...I ususally get an ok turn out, due to my friend base around here. I would like to start playing at a few of the other coffee shops around here too. I have not written any new music in months...mostly my fault for just not doing it...I HAVE too make time for it. Other than that...I am still single as can be, there are a few people I am interested in...even though I think that none of them will probably go any where...oh well. OK...I am going to leave this post at that...I will post again soon. | | |

Let it go...
Let it go for 2006
By T. D. Jakes
There are people who can walk away from you.
And hear me when I tell you this! When people can walk
away from you: let them walk.
I don't want you to try to talk another person into
staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to
see you, staying attached to you. I mean hang up the phone.
When people can walk away from you let them walk.
Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left.
The bible said that, they came out from us
that it might be made manifest that they were not for
us. For had they been of us, no doubt they would have
continued with us. [1 John 2:19]
People leave you because they are not joined to you.
And if they are not joined to you, you can't make them stay.
Let them go.
And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person it just
means that their part in the story is over. And you've got
to know when people's part in your story is over so that you don't keep
trying to raise the dead.
You've got to know when it's dead.
You've got to know when it's over. Let me tell you
something. I've got the gift of good-bye. It's the tenth spiritual gift,
I
believe in good-bye. It's not that I'm hateful, it's that I'm
faithful, and I know whatever God means for me to have He'll give it to
me.
And if it takes too much sweat I don't need it. Stop begging people to
stay.
Let them go!!
If you are holding on to something that doesn't belong
to you and was never intended for your life, then you need to......
LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to past hurts and pains ......
LET IT GO!!!
If someone can't treat you right, love you back, and
see your worth.....
LET IT GO!!!
If someone has angered you ........
LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge......
LET IT GO!!!
If you are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction......
LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to a job that no longer meets your needs or talents
...
LET IT GO!!!
If yo! u have a bad attitude.......
LET IT GO!!!
If you keep judging others to make yourself feel better......
LET IT GO!!!
If you're stuck in the past and God is trying to take
you to a new level in Him......
LET IT GO!!!
If you are struggling with the healing of a broken
relationship.......
LET IT GO!!!
If you keep trying to help someone who won't even try
to help themselves......
LET IT GO!!!
If you're feeling depressed and stressed .........
LET IT GO!!!
If there is a particular situation that you are so
used to handling yourself
and God is saying "take your hands off of it,"
then you need to......
LET IT GO!!!
Let the past be the past. Forget the former things.
GOD is doing a new thing for 2005!!!
LET IT GO!!!
Get Right or Get Left
.. think about it, and then ...
LET IT GO!!!
"The Battle is the Lord's!"
During the next 60 seconds, Stop whatever you are
doing, and take this opportunity. (Literally it is only ONE minute!)
All you have to do is the following:
You simply say "The Lords Prayer" for the person that
sent you this message:
The Lords Prayer
Our Father, who are in Heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name, Thy Kingdom
Come, Thy Will be done, on Earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day, our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we
forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation
but
deliver us from evil.
For Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the
Glory, forever.
Amen.

| Ok...so it has been a while. I have to say things are going
good. This is the last week of school before Christmas
break...and I am looking forward to the break. It will be a good
chance to get myself refocused and ready for the second semester.
I definatley need to have a plan going into it, as far as my time
management goes. I have a huge praise...a few week ago my mom
decided she would, if I wanted her to, pay off my debt and I could just
pay her back. This is huge in that in cuts down my monthly bills
by a lot...praise God! On another note...and I don't want
everyone to freak out...but I am seeing someone...her name is Ashley, I
met her at Friday's, she is also a New Tribes student (off campus),
this past semester she just audited a few classes. Anyway...just
thought I would let you all know. I would ask that you would keep
this in your prayers...we are taking things slow and want to keep it
that way. Also, please pray that we would both keep our focus on
Christ and not on us...cuz it's not about us. Thank you
all. Love you all. See or talk to you later. Bye.

He became a gladiator, hoping to dominate the colosseum in order to one day get the chance of killing Commodus. Maximus is valiant, courageous, and dedicated. He wants nothing more than the chance to avenge his family, but his temper often gets the better of him.
