There are a lot of things to be thankful for. First and foremost, salvation. Knowing that God loves you and me so much that he sent his son to die for us. And yes, you and I have the right and freedom to believe that. I chose to believe. 🙂

And in spite of the bad moments, there maybe someone there that we’re grateful for. To them
Thank You by Dido
And thanks to you, the readers, for stopping by and doing just that, reading. And yes commenting. 🙂 This was a fun journey.
We see some people doing and saying stuff that we may find disgusting, but sometimes we don’t know why they’re doing it, what’s their reason(s). So before jumping in and judging, find out why. No way condoning their actions.
This post’s song, They Don’t Understand by Sawyer Brown
The corruption in governments, political representatives.
Something’s happening in my country, the people are becoming more aware. Silence is no longer the order of the day. And I’m liking it. There’s a growing anger for the somewhat passive nature. No violence, but constructive actions. No more ignorance.
My faith’s not in the government of this country, it’s in God, in Jesus his son that died for me. But they are and were elected for purposes, and they’ve failed, and continue to fail. Thumps are ready.
What do you do when you’re not just angry, but very angry?
Something happened on Friday that made me angry, and by that evening I became very angry because the problem was exasperated by the actions of the people involved.
When I’m angry, I try to control it. I try to remain quiet so as not to let this emotion get the better part of me. I keep my distance emotionally and physically. And if the person/people that made me angry can be approach, I let them know what they did. And if they can’t, I try to move on. I pray about it and read my Bible. I did both, and by Saturday, I was feeling a little better. I also listened to music.
By Sunday, after church went to the grocery store. Got hit on by a guy in the store; took a walk and got hit on again. Even if they had called me sexy, a term I hate being called because it makes me uncomfortable, right at that moment, I wouldn’t have mind. I was in such a good relaxed mood. And yeah, my cashier was nice.
We all get angry; there’s nothing wrong with it, but what we do with it, what we do when we’re in that state of mind is what matters. And don’t get upset over trivial things, that energy can be use for much better things. 🙂
I listened to this song repeatedly over the weekend.
This post’s song, Requiem For A Dream, Lux Aeterna by Clint Mansell
There are 6 billion plus people that live on this planet, and in the lives of those people which include you and me, relationships of different kinds are formed.
There’ll be some that’ll steal your heart away. To you, the love of your life was found.

There’ll be some that’ll leave an emptiness in your heart because they’re no longer alive.
Homesick by Mercy Me
And then there’ll be some who we’ll forgive, and others, we’ll find hard to.
The Heart of The Matter by Don Henley
Some will be disappointed in us, and we in them, because along the way, we might have become what they never expected.
Who Am I by Will Young
We might regret saying too little, not how or what we really felt when they were so close.
In The Living Years by Mike and The Mechanics
Some will truly have our backs.

And others will do their best to bring us down.

But always remember, the best relationship to have is with
