thursday tacos

Well yesterday was funny. Jack in the Box was giving out two free tacos if you would show to them a gas receipt, I was coming back from work and I went and got my tacos. It was hilarious. I felt funny. But I mean it helped, I was no longer hungry. thanks Jack...lol.

praise God

So I am very excited, they have published my first article as an intern. WHoot whoot, Really... I am so excited and I just await to what God will do with this.

THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA

Yes I finally went to see the chronicles of narnia. I really had a wonderful time. Ready for my favorite part? Well, it is when Lucy says that she would like to be more courageous and Aslan tells her that if she was any more courageous she would be a lioness. I know, maybe it wasnt a great action pact scene but it is my favorite one. I still cant seem to take it all in. I think Sandy you are right to have gone seen it so many times, I think I need to go back to see it or rent it when it comes out. I still have unanswered questions.
I would like to thank adrian, my brother, for having gone with me. Yes when I asked him to go with me at 9:30 to a 10:20 showing. We drove back and got home at 1 am. Lol.
PS: I woke up this morning and THANKS TO GOD, it seems my article is going well, I need to get a hold of some people and fill in the gaps and its good to go. Also, I will be meeting with some of the girls in La Prensa and I will get to observe what they do and I will get to do it next week, God willing. I am so excited.

Shaken up

Today an earthquake shook me up at 7:20. The news said 7:14 but I felt it, it was at least 7:19. Umm and then my sister decided she was going to move out of state. She hates earthquakes and she decided she was going to move to Oregon. She said, all I have to worry there is about snow, I told her, but you are always cold. She responded, I prefer to be cold than frighten. Makes sense, so maybe I will have to be visiting my sister in Oregon in the future.

Unipolar

New word... new understanding.
I am grateful with God to live in a place where I can live free... free to learn, read God's word without persecution, speak Spanish and English and any other language I commit to learning, I can marry whom I choose (with God's direction); of course, like I have said before, FREEdom is NOT FREE. However, an "unipolar world"... why? why does it have to be that way. I think that we should all try to help each other. Its hard, but its hard because nobody starts. Loving others breaks the concept of an "unipolar world", because when you love people, walls of negativity, walls of self destruction, walls of harming and hating others, they come crumbling down. Hmmm... I don't think that it is "survival of the fittest" = Unipolarity what we should have in our minds, this only leads to wars. We should all try to love and when we cant because of our selfish ways we should give each others a break, and not take it personally. Hmmm.... I myself need to try to follow my own words... its hard but worth it.

Memories

Today, I got home at after 12pm and I joined my parents in looking at videos of music they used to listen to... not much has changed... ok maybe the dances and lyrics but apart from that nothing really. I think what I want to say is feelings and scenes don't change, I can be wrong. My parents reflect on their youth with their music and memories start overflowing their minds and the same happens to me and I guess many others. I decided to put the first video because is something that I really like, specially the beginning, and I mean as an added bonus, the scenes are phenomenal. I also added some of the videos they watched and I enjoyed. Hope you enjoy them. :)

Incredible video about the relationship between a father and son.... and God's relationship with us." - sand2rock95's

Free way

Wind racing through my hair
I sped and felt it surrounding me
as if it wanted to lift me

The view
the never ending sky
with a moderate amount
of clouds.

I thought I was flying
now that I think about it
I was soaring.

Today
As I drove up a high
freeway ramp
I felt free

Who would have seen
this coming?
Me, out of all the people,
in the bliss
of driving in the freeway.

Letting Go

I have tried to be in control
always having my hand on the control
of my life
either a click away,
a phone call away,
or a prayer away.

I have lost control,
of this my control,
Its been hard
no doubt
about it
but so easy
to lay it down.

My fears and doubts
they do not have me,
my God has them
under control.

I found myself
in peace
as I let go
yet I know who
is in control

I even found myself
cry out today
"I feel good"

Yes,
this is
the bliss
of living in the
Truth.

It is my prayer,
It is my request,
That God may make
this my heart's state
of living.

one in a million

One in a million
Pieces to choose from,
Is it fiction or is it not,
I walk and deteriorate into
a million pieces.

Around me
Alone I stand
but on my knees
You are near me.

Oh, my distress,
My drenched out heart
one that beats slower,
slower,
slower,
every
single
time.

Still mother says
God is near to help
and proofs come flying in
yet I stumble and cry
I cry and despair
and then I write.

Yet we pray
we thank God
for His grace
and tears roll
down.

Holding on to hope
I sleep
tonight.
