Sometimes.....
I get so caught up in the passion I feel for things that I forget to laugh and lighten uP! I can't stand being serious all the time. After a bit, it brings a frown to my face. I'd rather smile and feel joy...Like those summers as a kid...Playing in the backyard just as the sun was going down. That faint smell of honeysuckle lingering in the air. Crickets singing in the midst of the tall, green grass. The sky has hues of glorious colors as the sun tucks itself in for the night. Fireflies sparkle everywhere...Under the trees, here, there..They twinkle with the sweetest little glow in the ever-growing darkness. That moment stays in my mind forever. Though I'm grown, I've never forgotten it. I relive it every chance I get because it reminds me of how I once was...carefree and happy. Who says when we grow up, we have to grow uPtight? LAUGH!!

Air..Do you need to breathe it?
I was aksed this today......A) How old were you when someone told you there was a God B) Why didn't you ask for proof?
I wasn't taught there's a God. There was never anyone to tell me there's a God. It's something I personally choose to believe in. It's faith in the things I can't see like the air. Without air my body would die, so I know my physical life depends on something I can't see. It's the same thing for my soul. The existence & continuation of it depends on something I can't see..GOD & his spirit. It's in all of us. He doesn't want us fighting, but rather open our minds to the possibility of him!
I don't need proof that God exists. Just like I don't need proof that air exists. I know I depend on it and must breathe air to stay alive. I apply the same way of thinking to the "bigger picture" of LIFE.
I don't need proof that God exists because I know that I depend on him and need him for the survival of my soul.
What does it hurt to believe in something bigger and better than this life. It can't hurt to believe, but it can hurt to NOT believe.
Let's say there is no afterlife...No Heaven or Hell, and while we're here on EARTH living our lives, we choose to believe in God and Heaven, but then it turns out those things don't exist and we just go to sleep when we die....Then it didn't hurt anything to believe while we lived, and it also brought us peace and happiness during the journey.
Let's say Heaven and Hell does exist, and they are, in fact, for real. When we die, there is an afterlife and a place for our souls, our spirits to continue on. Let's say it's real. If we choose to live a life of not believing in it, then we lose a lot when we pass on. We lose your soul.
The physical body dies without air and the spirit of our soul dies without God. We die, we perish in an afterworld of sorrow and pain, unending.
If we choose to believe in the positive, the good, the light at the end of the tunnel. If we choose to believe in a "better place" that God has waiting for us. If we choose to believe in the rewards of our creator, then it can't hurt anything, and we are also choosing eternal life. We are choosing for our souls to continue on and be a part of something greater than any of us.
God is Everything...If you can see a tree outside, blowing in the wind, then you've saw God.
If you can see the Ocean's vastness, you've saw God.
If you can see the sun shining on the grass, and butterflies fluttering by, you've saw God..Do not deny.
If you see the birds flying about the sky or snow falling on a winter night, you've saw God.
If you see yourself and know you are alive, you see God and all will be all right.
God loves you, God loves I....Until the very ending of things, until the end of all time.

Everyone Leaves Original Song JadeeValley

FAITH
I don't know...Have you ever believed in something soooooo much you could see a picture of it in your head?..As if you already saw it playing out.....OMG....If you live your life this way...STOP...Stop now!!!...lolol.. I do this, but I'm finding something out........
Having dreams and planning for your future is one thing...Setting rational goals to achieve is fabulous, but don't get carried away in your own dreams to the point you lose touch with reality. Don't get your hopes too high on something that involves a lot of uncertainty because it's like walking on thin ice. At any time, you could fall through and the world you'd imagined for yourself would come crashing around you as you both plunged to an icy-cold death...lolololol...yes, I love being dramatic!!!
I have a lot to say because I think a lot about everything, probably too much. I think about the future of the world. I think about the 2012 Issue and the Mayan Calender. I think about the future of our way of life, the people of the world and if there will be Peace and Prosperity for all instead of just a handful of lucky ones.
I think about the Medical Care Issue and if there'll be EQUAL and PROPER Medical for all instead of the deteriorating state it's in during present day. I wonder about our Education System and the well-being of the minds of our youth, our children. So many young people out there nowadays are angry and turning to violence as ways to vent and release pent-up aggression. So many incidences of kids beating one another up to broadcast on video or taking guns to schools and opening fire on one another.
I wonder...Where did the innocence go? When did we allow the innocence of our children to be stolen? We've been their voices, and we allowed them to be victimized by the society we've created. I think of the future of my own children. I shield them from the internet, I talk with them about the issues children need to know of. I try to prepare them for the world they live in, but even I wonder about the future we are creating for them.
With Global Warming, The Failing Economy and the "Recession" we've been experiencing. With rising prices, more big Corporations going Bankrupt and needing "bailouts"...more families losing their homes and workers losing their jobs. More WAR......everywhere...that never seems to end.
Like I said.....I probably think too much....hahahah I love my blog!!!! When I start thinking too much, I write it all here! It's the best way to release the "baggage" of our mind. The thoughts of the day, the problems we encountered, the moments we laughed..Isn't that what sets us apart from every other thing on the planet.....
Our spirit...the Human Spirit...our memories, our hopes, dreams, aspirations, thoughts, doubts, beliefs...We are who we are, and everything will be as it should. At the end of the day, I leave everything up to God...and in that, I find comfort to rest easy. I enjoy talking about my thoughts. It draws me closer to the very world I think about. It draws me closer to YOU. Thank YOU for being here! Thank you for reading.
Free will is a gift, and we're given a voice and independent natures so that we may express ourselves to one another and communicate our hearts and souls. It's the beauty of us. To be creative, curious creatures. God made us this way for a reason. He wanted us to go forth and prosper on this Earth...But if he would not have made us curious, creative, and independent..We'd never progressed any further than the very spot he created us in.
((smilez and huggz)) LOVE AND LIGHT
