About
I just want to be true to myself, that's all.Following
…every year, I almost give off this gloomy attitude about my birthday coming up.
But after a sweet youth group meeting, a sleepover with some of my girls, 150 dollars worth of Bonchon, snow, and a new nephew…
…I just don’t know. I couldn’t even react the right way at first. I don’t think I understood what being blessed meant; I never really knew what it meant for a long, long time. I’m even having a hard time writing this down now, I just
I thank God. I can’t even say what for specifically without thinking I’ll just keep writing and writing about it… everything, I guess. I’m a bit overwhelmed right now to express any sort of feeling, if that makes sense. But, yeah.
I think I’ll just lift up these praises to you, Father. I really can’t think of anything better to do.
As carnality tries to consume the heart, Your Word keeps me grounded.
Your love is my conviction. God, let me be close to Your heart.

My cousins (two of the girls singing in the back), and a couple of their close friends, Rob and Ruth, recorded a gospel CD, and this track (also sung in Samoan) at their college music studio to sell and fundraise for their missions trip several years ago. I am very blessed, and I mean that in every sense of the word, to have a family for being the biggest encouragements in my struggle through faith. They teach me so much about Godly strength, and inspire me even when they’re miles away from me, and when listen to their songs.
I have seen God’s wrath, His hate for sin, and His relentlessness. I have witnessed His power and His peace.
I have experienced His reality. God, if His will demands it, can take everything and everyone away from me. He can let all that I hold onto become crushed within my hands, and I could be beaten down here on this Earth for as long as I live here.
I will soon become confused again by all that I’ve lost, and then just realize that I am a fool for even trying to hold on to things and people that don’t even come close to Him.
He can take all these things away, but only to show me Himself, and that I have lost my way from Him a long time ago.
God, take everything away. You take things away, to make room for everything better.
“The thought of any pain, my homelessness, is bitter poison. I think of it constantly, and my spirit is depressed. Yet hope returns when I remember this one thing,
The Lord’s unfailing love and mercy still continues,
Fresh as the morning, as sure as the sunrise.
The Lord is all I have, and so in Him I put my hope.”
- Lamentations 3:19-26.

IF YOU HAD A HEART YOU WOULD READ THIS .
A girl in my school, danielle orna, committed suicide for unexplained reasoning as of now. You never think, when you go to school and theres those days where you have assemblies of bullying and all that bully prevention stuff would er be an issue because it never happened in your school. You think that bullying would realy affect someone until they hurt themselves. You think that everyone has thick skin and should just forget what people think of you…but when i tell you, this girl committed suicide, the last girl id ever thought would ever commit suicide, my heart sank. She didnt care what society thought about her, but maybe she was just hiding her feelings so that she would show strength in person. I was best friends with danielle orna in 7th grade for a time, and then we stopped talking to each other, and i regret it. I regret not saying hi to her all the time like i used to. But once again, society has killed another victim of this cruel world. Its clearly not just your high school that has bullying problems, its our GENERATION has a problem. rest in peace babygirl, and keep smiling as you watch over us. graduation will not be the same without you.
Dani, your smile will forever be in our hearts. Rest easy, beautiful<3

ultramercado asked: Twenty-seven.
I’m tired of always thinking and evoking horrible emotions. I’m getting that sick feeling all over again because I constantly jump to conclusions. I need to ask God everyday if I should feel this worthless, and try my hardest to find Him in the messiest places in my heart. I can’t depend on a single conversation I have with anyone when its without Him.
aaaand done.
thealignedstars asked: What do you hate most about school? what is the meaning behind your URL?
What do I hate most about school?
call me a hypocrite, but I hate the lack of interest in it. A lot of people have trouble and just quit or drop out. I mean, I’m not talking about the ones who actually have bad teachers that don’t like teaching, but they’re not all like that. And if kids hate school so much, why don’t they just find a way to change it? People think that we’re just kids who like to run away and make bad decisions. But I think if we hold out long enough and bear the pain of a bad education system until we graduate, we can know what’s wrong because of our perspective of school, and try do something about it. blaah i dunno, though. thats probably just me. /rant.
ah, my url just came from this tv show, flcl. I read the comic book/manga version of one of their tv scenes, and they spelled “empty” kinda funny.
