welp… i guess its that time to blog again…

Honestly in my opinion its been too long for my liking, but, in all seriousness i’ve been too busy to do it AND when i’m not busy.. i don’t want to be on the computer.

            anywho, i started a new job and am licensed in Property & Casualty insurance! it’s a change and is something that i’m not used to, but so far in the week that i’ve worked there i’ve already seen a huge improvement.

( i did an engagement shoot for some friends :) )

           

            so, that being said, i have some things on my mind:

                        Marriage stipulations

                        My Naïve-ness 

                        Christians & our behavior.

·      basically, i know too many people who have been planning a wedding or in the process of planning a wedding and other people try to run their show. IM SORRY, are you the one who just got proposed to? NO? 

o   ok then, shut your mouth. 

            too many people like to put their input in when there was never a suggestion box to begin with. i’m sorry but when the time comes for me to start planning my wedding, i pity the fool who tries to tell me how to do MY wedding or who to put in it or where to have it or what we should or should not do.
            i have no patience for that, or making the bride feel like she’s done something wrong because she wants to have someone else be her maid of honor or she wants dancing at the wedding.
            call me bridezilla when the time comes if you want, but i don’t think that would be irrational, to plan a wedding the way you and your fiancé want it.
            right? Ugh. i don’t understand people

·      WHICH leads to my next topic. i am so naïve and completely honest. let me tell you a story. ..
            once upon a time, in the month of May a young lady was taking her class on how to become a insurance agent. during this week long class that was 8 hours long a day…this young lady’s teacher was late coming back from lunch one day, in which someone came in to sub for an hour and a half. half way through the sub’s teaching he called for a ten minute break and later resumed teaching. THEN the teacher came back and started to teach. about an hour into his teaching he asked the class if they had already had their ten minute break in which the young lady nodded and said yes. during her nodding she noticed everyone else in the class shaking their heads saying no…

WHAT? really? i would’ve never thought to lie and that moment.. and was shocked that everyone else did with out a beat. i guess that was one instance that i realized i really am different from everyone else.
            i’m not of this world…

·         finally, i’ve talked with some people who are non-Christians, and i’m a little ashamed sometimes of us as a whole. apparently, many of us shove the gospel down people’s throats with out any love, any compassion, and full of hypocrisy. excuse me?!
            what about: “let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.”
                                                            1 Timothy 4:12

if i speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. & if i have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if i have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, i am nothing. if i give away all i have, and if i deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, i gain nothing.
love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. it does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
                                                          1 Corinthians 13: 1-7

i think we get too harped up on converting others or being “right” we forget the way we are supposed to behave towards others. & i often think about how many we’ve lost because of people who claim to be Christians behave in offensive and cocky behavior.  i’ve heard too many stories of people who were scared into Christianity rather than welcomed in by people who set a good example.
            i’m sorry for those who experienced that, and just know we aren’t all i'm right and your wrong...some of us are filled with love and concerned about your well being.
