Life.

This year marks seven since my brother passed away. It also marks two and a half since my father died. Crazy things happen in the blink of an eye. Cherish what you have because you never know when it might change right in front of your eyes.
This Christmas has been really hard but I know that God is walking with me and keeping me strong. It's all settling in and I wasn't ready for it but good friends and family holding me near and showing me love gives me comfort from the Lord.
May He give you peace this Christmas and be your comforter in hard times.

As I sit here reading other people's blogs instead of writing my paper it makes me think about all this hype of writing  papers. Besides the 14 page paper that I wrote and turned in on Monday I hope to never have to do that again, besides my 60 page paper due next year that can surely wait. Then I remember I have to take two writing intensive classes that apparently everyone has to take. How was I supposed to know I was everyone? Yuck I am not looking forward to this. I know my adviser informed me that Sociology is all about writing papers, expressing your feelings? No writing about important topics in our society that need addressing. At least I'm writing about things interesting to me. And now the more writing I do on here, the more I'll have to make up for on my paper. So instead of putting more thoughts into my blog, I should head on over to Microsoft Word. :[

 Philippians 4:8. I will surely try to think of such things today. :]
