being grateful in bad times
times are tough, gas prices are going up significantly, business has slowed down tremendously..the american economy is in bad shape.
however, today i'm grateful for some good news. grateful for god's grace. holly called me today with the good news that she's landed a job at a big marketing production company (holly just graduated uni last semester). which is what she always wanted. i'm so glad for her, and i'm grateful for god's plan. she's moving on to bigger better things, her starting pay is pretty hefty as well. i'm so proud that my sister is making good in her life. so today, i'm grateful in my heart.

watching Garden state while listening and helping friends
after all this while, i finally gave in, and bought Garden State on dvd. everyone i know loves the movie. and after last night, i can definitely see why. i'm glad i actually took the plunge and listened to my friend and bought the dvd (quote "dude you need to own this, buy it!!"). it was very eccentric, awesome dialogue and natalie portman...need i say more. beautiful movie...and awesome music also. i'm in love with portman ..melts.
anyhow, mid-movie last night, my bestfriend calls, and his a/c went out at his house. so he brought the whole family over to stay at my house (wife and kid). it was kinda nice having some company in the evening. different, but a pleasant change. BJ's got girl issues, so talked to him over the phone for awhile, i hope things pan out for him. Jen called to say she misses me, which always cheers me up..i can't wait to see her on labor day weekend possibly, i haven't seen her in awhile.
then this morning my co-worker calls me crying because a close family member pasted away. it's shocking to wake up and hear a grown man sincerely weep over the phone, because a loved one has passed. it was a sober wake up call today. i hope things will get better for dan, and bless his grandma's heart that she is in a better place now.

note to self
note-to-self: Don't forget to breathe.
i'm glad, i don't have drama in my life right now. sometimes it's better to, not give a shit about people's feelings, not give a shit about drama, and the people who make drama.

closets and skeletons
had a pretty ok day till i had a phonecall from an old friend. got some news about someone, it brought alot of memories... good and bad.... bitter and sweet... maybe i shouldn't be remembering things like that. some skeletons are meant to be kept and never taken out again i guess...

sudden changes
its amazing how a sudden change in wind, can move you into a completely unexpected direction in life.
in this case it'll be better for the long run, but its gonna be really tough right now because i've got to adapt to this sudden change....
i wish i had somebody by my side to talk to about my problems and stuff, it would be nice. but then maybe god is doing this to me, so i can talk more to him. i don't know..i'm scared of what is to come...but i have to be brave...and i have to keep faith.
today i feel emotional petrified of the future, but also at the same time careless, because i'm hoping that god will make it better. please say a prayer for me and cross your fingers for me...thanks guys
