HAPPY NEW YEAR

Christmas is over and a new year hs begun.Its time for resolutions like that diet you have been putting off.Well do like me, put the tv on an exercise channel and watch them work up a sweat.You will be working out meantly and you know what they say its mind over matter!!!

Change Will Come

Why is it so hard to tell people that you care about how you really feel?You determine that the next time you get the chance you will tell them but once you do see them,you can't.All bets are off. You start thinking of how they will feel and how you don't want to hurt them.Then you start making excuses how its not the right time for them.Whats worse is that when it comes to how you feel,they don't think twice.They always say that the problem is you and that you need to change.However they fail to see the small changes that have occurred in you,how you have changed as a person.How you have grown as an individual.You always encourage them,support them and push them to follow their dreams and go for their goals.You see the changes in them as they grow and are happy.You encourage them to change for themselves.

One day you will speak up.One day change will come.Hey it happened for Obama right!?

History in the making..Now WHAT?!

Okay so Obama won.Now what.That's all I can come up with now that all the fan fare is dying down.I mean its great but at the back of my mind I'm wondering is he going to last?Are they going to try to kill him?Its not so far fetched,come to think of it.He is black and not in my lifetime did I ever think I would see a black president of the U.S.The world all over is loving the change,but what does this signify really.I guess I'm like some conspiracy theorist,but I don't think this spells too good of a future.I just hope that he is not what some people are saying.I'M WAITING TO SEE...

Emotional Cheating

I have come to the shocking realisation that men cheat for more emotional reasons than women.This brings me to the second point that its harder for them to let go of an emotional affair.Why can they not talk about their feelings openly?It would cause a lot less problems if they did.Then it would give some insight to their partners.Point number 2 causes point 3,the destruction of a good relationship.When you have tried all you can and there is not even a peephole at the end of the tunnel,it frustrates.You want to give up but you hang on in hopes that things will change,if you give it another day.Then creeps in the bitterness which boils into resentment and finally explodes into anger.You end up leaving the relationship in that state of unresolved anger.That 1 spoiled relationship changes your view of men,maybe for life.The cycle continues.Its just not fair.

Halloween

I may be old fashion but I think women's clothing is getting out of hand.It seems like the more clothes men wear, the less women are wearing.Women's clothing get shorter and tighter every season.I've seen some females(can't tell if they are kids or adults) who walk funny and don't even contemplate bending because their skirts are so short.The necklines also drop significantly, so much so that you don't even have to try to get a peek.Now I'm not generally up on fashion but from what I'm seeing designers need to rethink some of their choices.I mean when you can't tell if you are looking at a 14 or a 24 yr old,something has to change.

Season changing

Life changes so quickly if you are no paying attention it will pass you by.

My nephew is already going to school and my sister is done with it.I'm back to work and I feel like I miss so many things.Friends are moving on,relationships are changing and people are ageing. The day turns to night faster and before you know it another year has past.As seasons change so do people,as is the cycle of life.Sometimes we don't want to but we have too.Life is not meant to be at a stand still there is enough time for that when we are dead!We have no choice but to live.But change is always hard.Take a look at nature.Some plants refuse to bend to the harsh north winds and as if in a battle of will the first leaf struggles not to fall off,to indicate the season has changed.We fear the unknown of change and what it may bring,the endless possibilities, the choices and decisions.The fear of making the wrong decision,of failure.

There is one thought that keeps me going, the thought of a higher being that has my best interest in mind.It may sound stupid,but God is the one that gives me peace when the time comes for change.He helps me to let go and not struggle against the winds of change but to glide gracefully with it, not worrying about where I will land.My life is ultimately in God's hands.

Camp 2008

Genesis 35;2 Put away the foreign gods from among you,purify yourselves and change your garments

Camp 2008 was held at CastleBruce Secondary. It lasted about 8 days from August 7-15. It was alot of work keeping the campers in line and trying to get them to have fun at the same time. The first few days were like working on a slave plantation; resistant workers, rationed food and poor bathrooms! Imagine even I wanted to go home!! Sunday changed things alot. After an encouraging youth service, we began to work together. The food improved and the toilets and bathrooms were made livable. We had fun with a water fight, group competitions,treasure hunt, river baths and sessions. We made lots of friends, some people showed signs of maturity,namely Dennis, who consequently won camp king. Relationships bloomed, namely Hilroy and Shanica's. They will be seeing alot of each other come September. Old friendships were renewed,the brotherhood of Marlon and Tyrone LOL!! We even had people who would like to be officials next time around.

Camp had its ups and downs, but all in all it was good.Thank God!! We even made a hi5 and a blog (check us out under links ). Expect alot more to come from us.
