Everyone has the right to LIFE, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness

Everything has a right to grow, to flourish, to become what it was made to be. It just isn't right not to give something a fair chance, to give up on a life because it doesn't fit in with your schedule or doesn't seem like it will survive. When you plant a seed, you don't expect to kill it right away. You don't pay for your lawn to be seeded, and then never water it. If you do that, you kill it. And why would you kill something that would make your house, and front yard look so much more beautiful? Why would you kill a child that would make your life be so much more beautiful? Everything deserves a chance to live...






Including Humans.

I stand alone...

So many times there is a lot of pressure put on people, pressure to fit in with the crowd. You must wear this, watch that, listen to this in order to fit in. Everybody is caught up in the race to be in with everyone else. Maybe we should step back and look at everything that God has made for an example.


A tree does not strive to be as every other tree. It stands on its own, digs it own roots, and produces its own beautiful foliage. Some trees look ridiculous, they are all twisty and turny and sometimes are completely bare, just like the one in the picture. But how could that picture have been taken, and look so wonderful, without that different tree? Every difference is beautiful, every flaw you think that you possess only adds to the wonder of God that is you. Don't you think that we should appreciate that?


Just remember:
If you try to fit in, you will never stand out.

Breathe.........

It's a hectic day, you feel like you just need to lay down and cry. Everything is going wrong--and you still have to make dinner.

Take a deep breath...and breathe.

It relaxes you, suddenly everything isn't so bad.

What is it about air that can do that? How does a combination of gases keep us alive? Why does nitrogen mixed with some oxygen make us feel like everything will be alright?

I have no idea. Maybe some scientists will say that it soothes the brain or something like that. All that I know is that when I am stressed out I will just....breathe.
