So i have been doing a lot of thinking lately, a lot about how everything changes at some point, and about how messed up some things in this world are.

As a lot of you have learned, i lost my mom to cancer when i was 13, and thinking back to when i was 12, i never would have expected how drastically my life would change in a few months. It makes me wonder now, what is going to change next? Im not saying im living in fear all paranoid that something bad will happen, but i do take advantage of every oppurtunity i have to enjoy life, because you (as cliche as it is) never know wht will happen tomorrow

Another thing i have been thinking a lot about lately is how messed up so many people feel. I can just sign on to myspace and see these kids writing "i want to die" and "i hate my life, my family, myself" and the one that is always in my mind now, "i'm going to do it." Its so hard to look at those things and be positive, but i was at that place before, and i found my way out. I want people to realize that every life is worth living, and there is no need to feel alone. People have written in and told me that the are alone, desperate, abandoned, but the thing is, they arent. Im not one to preach and throw my beliefs down your throat, but there is hope in Jesus. without that hope, i can say i wouldnt be around today, and i kills me to know that so many kids are at their breaking point, maybe its because they are trying to "fit in" and they dont, or they have a broken home, or maybe they have never known what it feels like to be loved, but all that can change with one moment and prayer.

So as im writing this, a song that ive known for awhile started playing on my playlist, "Hanging On" by Everyday Sunday, a song that has a chorus that stays in my mind

"Everybody is looking around and wants to be found

and im just hanging on, I give You all that I am."

I just thought i would let you guys know what i have been thinking about lately and feel free to message us saying what you have been thinking about lately and say hey =)

God Bless guys
