Christmas TIme is Here

Pretty soon we won't need to have christmas in July because christmas will eventually become a year round event. At the rate we are headed this will happen. I was saddened to hear christmas 24/7 on WNIC already before even halloween!! oh well. I gave in and started listening. I find that that was a mistake because now I am so annoyed with secular christmas music.

Strange Symbols

How do you really know that the symbol below really means courage? Even if you ask five different people there is still a chance that what they tell you isn't the correct interperation. hmmm. You never know. This is why I will never get a tatoo in another language other than english. I dont want to get a chinnese symbol of love and have it turn out to say pizza.

That is one area of life that I will not trust and hope that it means what I think it means lol

Take this symbol for example:

They say it means beauty but It could very well say step stool.

Courage

Courage is my main theme in life right now. I keep this word always in my mind as I go though the day. I continually ask God for courage and strength in all the decision I face. It is really hard to trust God and let him lead you where He wants you to go. So that is why I ask for courage. I have this list in my room where it reminds me every day to have courage and when I can't find the strength it gives 10 recourses I can use to find words of wisdom.

Being open and honest with my parents and asking them for advices and support is how I get most of my strength in life. I am one of those kids who actually value the relationship with my parents and actually take what they say to heart. They usually are right. That can be annoying at times but only because I know they are right. : )

I am a very optimistic person. I find that it is easier for me to in the moment to trust God with things in my life. From my experience I have found that through all the hardship God does take care of you. I have courage.
