Christmas

Many do not really understand the true meaning of Christmas, which is why so many people have been hurt and many lost so much money. In this month of December a young man working at Wal-Mart was severely injured due to a rush doing opening hours for the Christmas sale. However he was rush to the emergency room and no one stopped to check on him or see if he was okay. Christmas has been about gifts, although we were told it is better to give than receive. We have token that concept and made it Christmas leaving out the fact that December the 25th stands for something much more than that. To me Christmas is about Jesus and His’ birth. When giving gifts and knowing that it is Jesus birthday what do you give Him? From the book that He left behind and calls The Guide he wants nothing but your life, your praise, and your worship. After all He is the Son of God, Kings of all Kings, and the ruler. All the gifts that one may buy Him already have and blessed you to give to someone or receive from someone. He has no limitations and gives us day after day to be right and glorify Him. However if you do not know him you probably do not believe this Jesus loves you and me so much he allow us to celebrate our holiday on His’ birthday. I consider that true love, so love is what we should give back on this Christmas Holiday.

The Move

Today is December the 2nd, and it marks one whole week before I get out before Christmas break. I am so excited because once I leave for Christmas break there is no coming back. I will be starting my life as a young adult living out on my own and working to pay bills and rent. Sometimes I get scared because I do not know if I am making the right decision for myself right now. However I also feel that if I do not do it now than I my never grow up and be a young adult. With God on my side I know that all things are possible and He will protect me and keep me. But it is something in the back of my mind that keeps telling me that my mom is not happy with the fact that I am moving out of her house for good to start my own life. There have been many times when I tried to talk to her and explain to her why I am moving and her opinion about me moving, she always make up some crazy excuse for us not to talk about it. I feel as though she will be okay because she will be within driving distances of my new home. Although I am very excited about the move, I still worry about the work because that is something I really do not want to do right now while I am in school.

Friends

Everybody needs somebody even if it is his or her mother, sister, brother, or even dad. Many do not understand the importance of that special someone until he or she is gone. Regardless of how something my make one feel one should always feel as though they have someone who will listen, love them, and care. To many it does not matter what others may say and think about them but on the inside it is hurting so bad because one know how much it hurts to be talked about. However that is why one needs someone else to care and love them and explain to them why life and things are the way that they are. It is always good to have someone who understands the problem and situation that you are facing because one day it may happen again. Those encouraging words that were giving during the last incident will motivate and give security to one, and may make them know how and what to do when faced with it again. When in trouble you should be able to call that individual and say whatever on your heart without the other person telling everyone else. However I call this special someone my friend. A friend is there through thick and thin, and may still be there even when your boyfriend or girlfriend is not.
