I need ideas...

Since I have nothing interesting to write about I will ask a question. I am really wanting to make a movie but I don't know what to write about! Any suggestions?

Gentlemen (Inspired by Amy K)

This is not an issue to be taken lightly. In a way I am talking to guys but GIRLS you can help! It is terribly sad to me that I look all around me and RARELY do I find a real man. A true gentleman. What is up with that guys? Seriously is it so hard to hold a door open for a girl? Is it so hard to offer your seat? Huuuuhhhh!!!! Did she just say give up my seat?!?!? To a girl!!!! Yep that is right fellows. That is what I said. Now I know this can be difficult because guys and girls alike have their pride. Girls, this is where you come in. If a guy opens a door for you, what should you do? Say THANK YOU! If a guy offers to carry something for you don't get offended because you feel like they are trying to point out that you are the weaker sex. Guess what girls...you probably are weaker in some ways. God made girls and guys different for a reason. Yes girls were created to be helpers to guys but I honestly think that guys NEED girls. Need is a pretty strong word too. Come on girls don't you like the idea of a guy showing you honor and helping you with things that yeah maybe you can do on your own but because they know what it means to be a real gentleman they do it anyway. Wow if a guy showed me that much honor I would be amazed. I am not saying to be unreasonable guys, I am not saying to wait on us girls hand and foot as if you are our servants. A little more respect would be nice though. I have seen very few (if any) real men. Sad huh? Then there are the guys who will hold a door open for a girl. Then there are the guys who will walk right through the door in front of you and not even notice you. The really sad thing is, is that when there is a gentleman around we girls don't allow them to help because we are to prideful to say you know what this is kinda heavy it would be nice of you to carry it. I know I am going on and on but honestly I feel this is a big issue. One last thing lady's, it is hard for a guy to be a gentleman when you are not acting like a young lady! Just think about it. Doesn't that make sense? Are you going to do something about it?

My blog

Ok, so I had planned on my blog being focused on one particular thing and so far it is not working out that way. Oh well! I pray that God will give me some things to write about though. Preferably something happy or exciting though.

Spiritual struggles

I am having some spiritual struggles. I have to say that they have gotten better but they are still here. I get really down sometimes, I don't know what that is about. That has gotten better too. In the last few days I have had a few episodes though. I feel closer to God one minute and then so far away the next. I really don't know what to do. I am confused. I can not explain exactly what I am going through. I am also confused about what I want to do with the rest of my life. I know that I don't have to decide this very moment but the day coming. Another problem I have been having is that I have gotten really lazy. I don't get my school or my chores done. I need prayer. Please pray for me!

Singing

My friends Jade, Julia and Joy and I sang on Sunday. I enjoyed it and was surprised because I really did not get that nervous. Don't get me wrong, I was nervous but I was able to sing loud enough (shocker!) and my parents said I did not sound very nervous. The girls did great too! We sang "In Christ Alone", inspired by the Dooley family. Jade and I both realized how much we loved that song so we said hey why not sing it tomorrow. I am glad for the chance to sing. We plan to do it again soon. Yay!

Welch family.

Yesterday was the memorial service of the death of our dear friends the Welch's. Some of my readers probably don't know what I am talking about so I will explain. Last year about this time right after the tornadoes came through the Welch family was helping with disaster relief. On their way home they were hit by a wal-mart truck killing Mr. and Mrs. Welch and their son Jesse and daughter...I can't remember her name. Jesse was a member of our choir and was a student at the tutorial school that I attend. We miss them so much and it has been very hard. I never got to know him very well which made it all the worse seeing that I missed a great opportunity. From the stories I have heard the Welch family was quite a blessing and touched so many peoples lives. I know that I will see them again one day. It is making my stomach hurt just talking about it but I know I have to trust God for comfort. I guess I also have to remember that there are people who were closer and are hurting more than I am. For anyone who might be reading this that does know the sweet Welch family I will be praying for God's comfort on you. The memorial service was good. Our choir sang and there were many other performances including the Dooley family(I thought did quite well.) who's children also attend the school that I go to. It was a time of good fellowship and our choir got together and sang songs from last year. It was fun to pull out the "Hallelujah Chorus". I am so glad to know that the Welch family is happily in heaven. God bless!

Nothing Interesting

I am kinda bummed, I do not have anything interesting to write about. Sorry to any readers that I might happen to have. Honestly I don't even know if anyone is still cheking up on it. Oh well. I will try to write as soon as I have something of worth to write about. God bless!
