Lost Paradise

Well yesterday was my birthday. And David did the sweetest thing. He brought me home three fake long stemmed pink roses!!!! Reason behind the fake ones he wanted something that would last forever like our love. AWWWWWWWWW!!! Tell ya, this was the best part of my day. hehe

The Leaves Are Falling
The leaves are falling all around us
The sun is setting like it should
A new day is dawning
And the snow is falling upon the wood

We rake the leaves again and again
We don’t take the time to smell the air
We get lost in all the commotion
And some don’t even give a care

This my friend is what I have to say
Take the time and the moments
To stop and greet every one in your way

Be kind to those you meet
Hug everyone in need

Say little prayers at nite and some during the day
So GOD will know
How thankful we are for him day by day

And maybe next time the leaves begin to fall
You will stop and smell the air
And take the time to give a care

Well a quick little update on me and then off to a short meme. I am doing better now that I have somewhat figured out what I can eat and can’t eat. However being that I just moved and all with mom’s, dad’s, beau’s, and my brothers help. I am short on cash so once things get all settled into place things will look up for sure. At least I am managing the diabetes better now Oh yeah I LOVE MY NEW CENTRAL HEAT AND AIR PLACE Three cheers for me
Hip Hip Hooray Hip Hip Hooray Hip Hip Hooray. Hehehehe now on to the meme. Take care all and God Bless.

According to Wikipedia Halloween is this:

Halloween (IPA pronunciation: [hælə'win], [hælo'win]) is an observance celebrated on the night of October 31, most notably by children dressing in costumes and going door-to-door collecting sweets. It is celebrated in much of the Western world, though most common in the United States, Puerto Rico, Ireland, the United Kingdom, Canada, and with increasing popularity in Australia and New Zealand. Halloween originated in Ireland as the pagan Celtic harvest festival, Samhain. Irish, Scots and other immigrants brought older versions of the tradition to North America in the 19th century. Most other Western countries have embraced Halloween as a part of American pop culture in the late 20th century.

The term Halloween, and its older spelling Hallowe’en, is shortened from All-hallow-even, as it is the evening before “All Hallows’ Day” (also known as “All Saints’ Day”. In Ireland, the name was All Hallows’ Eve (often shortened to Hallow Eve), and though seldomly used today, it is still a well accepted label. Halloween was also sometimes called All Saints’ Eve. The holiday was a day of religious festivities in various northern European pagan traditions, until it was appropriated by Christian missionaries and given a Christian interpretation. Halloween is also called Pooky Night in some parts of Ireland, presumably named after the púca, a mischievous spirit. In Australia it is sometimes referred to as “mischief night”, by locals.

Halloween is sometimes associated with the occult. Many European cultural traditions hold that Halloween is one of the liminal times of the year when the spiritual world can make contact with the physical world and when magic is most potent (e.g. Catalan mythology about witches).

Here is the symbolism of the colors that are related to Halloween:

COLOR ASSOCIATIONS
Color Symbolism
Black death, night, witches, black cats, bats, vampires
Orange pumpkins, jack o’ lanterns, Autumn
Purple night, the supernatural, mysticism
Green goblins, monsters
Red blood, evil

Makes one think why we even celebrate the holidays at all?

I am not easily offended but today someone had the honor of offending me. The twit said that Steve Irwin deserved what he got. HARUMPH Let me say this. That man and his family did so much and I am completely disgusted with what the idiot said about him. She even proceeded to call him a JEW. So not only did she diss the guy she is a bigot too. This is just a rant to say PEOPLE LOOK THINGS UP, RESEARCH, RESEARCH, BEFORE YOU SPOUT OUT CRAP!!!!!!

According to Wikipedia Steve Irwin was a passionate conservationist and believed in promoting environmentalism by sharing his excitement about the natural world rather than preaching to people. He was concerned with conservation of endangered animals and land clearing leading to loss of habitat. He considered conservation to be the most important part of his work: “I consider myself a wild-life warrior. My mission is to save the world’s endangered species.” Irwin bought “large tracts of land” in Australia, Vanuatu, Fiji and the United States, which he described as “like national parks” and stressed the importance of people realising that they could each make a difference.

The article goes on and on about everything him and his family have done.

Now I will leave this off with a prayer for his family and friends in their time of need. And for the world who will miss him greatly.

God please take his family, his children, his mass supporters and all the people that will miss him greatly. Take them in your arms and comfort them with the loss of such a great man. Help them to understand that he is in a better place. And God for the person/people that think he deserved it… Help them to realize that bigotry, hatred, rascism, and whatever else they may be guilty of does not help make this world a better place. Help us God to follow your ways and do what we can to be better people. In the name of your son Jesus Christ, AMEN.

Pain is gone and I am feeling much better. Hope all is well with the rest of the world.

Why is it that when you tell someone something they don’t want to listen even when they know you are right?
Or that they watched what you went through and they still don’t want to beleive it is happening to them.
Or maybe it is just that they don’t want to admit it even they know it is true?
Sometimes I think people can be so stubborn.

Just a little rant by me, sorry but sometimes it is a good thing to rant about it instead of holding it in.

To someone who is lost (You Know Who You Are)
(If this is confusing it’s not you)

You know that this person hurts you
You say you want so much more
Yet you stay with them just because
You think you don’t want to be alone anymore

Everyone hates the feeling of loneliness
Everyone hates to be alone
If you would just give it a chance
You might just realize, you’re never alone

You put up with the bullshit
You put up with the lies
The thing I don’t get is
Why? Why? Why? Do you even try…
