We are in charge of how to act. We are in charge of how we react. We are in charge of how we feel. We are in charge of how people see us. WE are in FULL control of ourselves.... SO.... if we are down, depressed, miserable, disappointed, well the only one that can change how we feel is ourselves!!! WE are the ones that make our lives BRILLIANT or TERRIBLE we just need to decide which one we want.  I think that we tend to see life in a negative way its tuff when negative things are happening in our lives but even if it is we still need to be positive, upbeat and happy otherwise we wollow in self pity and wollow in our own misery.... yeah ok sometimes thats all we want to do, and yeah I have totally done that... but does it help??? NO! Does it help you feel better??? NO! SO why do we make that an option???

I have to say I could of seriously gone off the deep end with everything that has happened in my life but again where would that have gotten me??? Would that have helped??? NO WHERE!!! AND NO!!!
When you are a parent you cant just do what ever, you have a little person counting on you to be strong and be there for them so going off the deep end and being a totally physco would not help you or your child... if anything it would make matters 100% times worse!!!

You think about things too..... You wonder when your a single mom... I can do this.... I can handle this 100% .... any single parent is lying if they say they have everything under control.... It is just not possible! You always need that help. Always need that support. I am grateful enough to have my parents but lets be realistic you cant live with your parents forever! You need that mother and father to give that child balance. I mean a MOTHER and FATHER.... PARENTS.... HUSBAND and WIFE.... to have that balance and security for your child. Mothers can teach children only so much and fathers teach them the other things that mothers have no experience in what so ever. Mother is there to nuture and give guidance. Fathers are there to provide and protect and give counsel. ALSO the whole parents just living together and not getting married is a load of crap.. I have already had a rant about it but since Im on the subject again I'll say it again... The reason people dont get married is becoz its an easy way out if things dont work out.... If you truely love each other then marriage should not be feared.... if you want that sercurity for your children then again MARRIAGE SHOULD NOT BE FEARED. I know I know Im single but that is because I stuck to my choice of wanting to get married.... others disagreed. AGAIN ONE MORE TIME IF YOU DIDNT HEAR ME THE FIRST TIME......... IF YOU ARE AFRAID OF MARRIAGE THEN YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN EASY WAY OUT BECOZ YOU ARE UNSURE THAT THE REALTIONSHIP WILL LAST!   Thats MY views I totally understand that people will have an issue with that statement but Im not forcing you to think the way I do.... I respect other peoples opinions so I think mine should be respceted to! BUT you know what I know its true because I know soooooooo many people that have been all "happy" with their guys and then girls get pregnant and BAM dude is like "SEE YA" GONE! Which brings me to another point SOME guys ( I say some because I not going to brush all guys with the same brush), but SOME guys love the title of DAD.... but NO responsibilties! They are to busy thinking about how this effecting them while forgetting that their is more then them involved in the equation! I think marriage just shows how much people truely love one another and give that security to their children... And all those that say " I dont need a piece of paper to prove my love" Then my question is ... If its just a piece of paper then whats the big deal of getting married??? Why do people fear it??? because they doubt the relationship will last and they want a way out and dont want to deal with a messy divoirce!!

But back to what I was talking about before my little rant.... POSITIVE THINKING!!!! The way we think is the difference between being happy and sad. BUT JUST DO IT!!!!

Phone call to God

So this new thing that is on the news is about people calling in their confessions!  Like this is taking things to a whole new level of crazy.... I know that the Cathloic Church is saying that they are not associated with this new thing but holy cow do they get a lot of crazy or bad press... from the Pope at one point stating the the Simpsons are Catholic to naughty priest and now phoning in confessions.  On one news article it said that since this things has happened less people have come to church and more have called in their confessions... People have found it convient and fits in with their crazy lifestyles.

BUT... think about it..... are we to busy for church??? Now a days less and less people are interested in God and religion.  They say I am 100% Catholic or 100% Jewish Or 100% Mormon..... but how many of them actually practice their religion... I know at one point I didn't.... So how many of us out there actually practices our religion???  Do we say we are such a religion because we actually believe in what we are or do we say that we are such a religion because well out of tradition or that simply what my family is so I guess I'm that too.  Do we really have a strong comformation that "THIS IS MY CHURCH  I KNOW ITS TRUE" or are you "well i guess its my church I guess what they saying is sort of true"  I know for me personally I grew up being in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints all my life but never really got to know for myself until in my 20's and only then did I know for myself.

I have to say when you look at the world today it has seriously changed from what it used to be... For example take the Catholic Church ( I know it might seem like I'm picking on the Catholic Church but I'm not its merely for example sake) .... back in the day Ireland was a strong Cathloic country everyone went to mass everyone listened to their Priests and did confession and that was that.  The priest say do not have sex before marriage, do not sin, do what you are told and as I said everyone went to mass no questions asked... now a days.... well marriage... whats that.... sin.... havnt a clue... Mass well I go to mass (at Christmas and Easter), confession I can call it in on the phone and Priest well hes the dude that said "I dont know coz i wasnt at mass"  In general religion is just not big anymore.... That is with every religion..... You can see more and more people doing things that the world does to fit in and blend in with the crowd, people are afraid to be different and to stand out. 

But if you look at what happened in the past you can understand why people dont want to stand out of the crowd:

Catholic Church: associated with peodophilia.... do you want to be associated with that and killed by the English???
Jews: Where chased and killed and treated like dirt.... why would they want that to happen to them???
Church of  Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints: persicuted and killed and got treated like rubbish got banished from their homes got tard and feathered because of what we believed... would we want that to happen to us???
Muslims: Because a few crazy muslims go around killing people and being terrorists then all get painted with the same brush and get called a terrorist.... would they want that????

At some point every religion was put under the fire and were tormented and punished for what they believe... is this the reason why this generation is so quiet about what they believe???  I think it has some part to play... I think some people think well why do I want to stand out and get bullied for what I believe when I can blend in with the crowd and fit in.... I know I did that at one point..... But then you think about the other side.... All those people stood strong and got tormented and killed because they stood up for thier beliefs!!  Should we not do the same.... I say yes!!! I think that if we truely believe in something we would die for what we believe in... I personally would rather die then deny what I believe in.... it might sound extreme but can someone really honestly say that about what they believe????
