2 + 2 = 5

Some people are afraid to help; afraid to give, and volunteer. They are afraid for one simple reason: They think that they will get nothing in return for their hard work. They theorize that their hard work would go without reward, but the blemish in their theory is that they are incorrect. Applying selflessness in your life sets the bar high for your friends, peers, and observers for them to strive to attain. This will turn you into a person that people will admire and respect for generations.

Born in 1839, and chairman of Standard Oil Company, John D. Rockefeller, gave a large amount of his money to charity. Since his first paycheck, he tithed to his church, and with his approx. net worth being $318.3 billion he demonstrated his great heart for giving. After 1911, Standard Oil Company was no more. Instead of running his monopoly, he retired and devoted to his life earnings to philanthropy. His contributions impacted the medicinal, educational, and scientific worlds.

Rockefeller is not the only person who can fit into this category. Others gave more than just their money. Martin Luther King, Jr. will not only get respect from the people of his color, but also from those who wish that they had the courage and the selflessness to do what he achieved. He is most know for fighting for Civil Rights. He, in the end, gave his life for the cause when he was assassinated by James Earl Ray in April, 1968, while King was staying at his favorite hotel. Ray confessed in March of 1969, and was convicted to 99 years in prison for the assassination of a public figure especially one so very close to American hearts. King gave his life to preserve equal rights for all men. He gave his all for the better of all Americans.

I try to show selflessness in my own life. I spend a lot of weekends at the church. I volunteer in the nursery at the church, and teach children’s church as well. I play in the worship band for the youth group. I travel around with my friends from church and minister to other churches. I enjoy spending my time helping others.

As I said earlier, practicing selflessness in your life doesn’t go without reward. The bible says in Luke 6:38, “If you give, you will receive. Your gift will return to you in full measure, pressed down, shaken together to make room for more, and running over. Whatever measure you use in giving – large or small – it will be used to measure what is given back to you.” When some people think of volunteering, they think, “A lot of work and no pay,” but they are wrong. When you give anything, large or small, it will be given back to you, but even more. That’s just how it works. The reward for selflessness will be greater than the amount put into it. Let’ s make the world a better place by setting the precedent of good character.

Review On Twilight

The fan craze over the young adult literature piece "Twilight" by Stephenie Meyer was definitely NOT exaggerated. This book is from the point of view of a 17 year old girl named Bella (Isabella), and deals with the randomness and complexity of the female mind. She has to deal with being the new kid in school and making new friends. Not to mention the weather change. She moved from Phoenix AZ to a small town called Forks in Washington. Forks is a tiny town compared to Phoenix, and the climate couldn't be any more different unless it was actually submerged under water. Rainy and humid all day.

She meets a boy at school named Edward Cullen. From the moment that their eyes meet, to the time when they are alone together in a sunny meadow, they were in love. Over the few months they know each other, He saves her life multiple times and trusts her with his biggest secret... He's a vampire. To his surprise, she isn't bothered at all. It just gives her interest an upper cut to the jaw.

Near the ending of the book, after Edward takes her to meet his family, the family, including Bella, gets into some trouble. Other vampires. "Bad Guy" vampires unlike Edward and his family. One of the other vampires fights and fights and fights for a drink of Bella's blood. But the Cullens can't allow that! They try to run but only run into more trouble when Bella is tricked by the bad guy and almost loses her life. The Cullens come to the rescue and destroy the carnivorous vamp. The family is safe again. Or are they?

This book is DEFINITELY a Must Read. You will not be disappointed. Stephenie Meyer really knows how to use words to describe a place or even a feeling. She can put you right into the situation so you can understand how the character feels. Read Twilight. You'll love it!

Campus Missionary Conference 1

So we went to a Campus Missionary conference yesterday and the speakers had so much stuff to say! It was amazing! I'm sol glad I went! One of them talked about what people outside the church think about Christians. Hypocritical, judgemental, sheltered, and anti homosexual are a few of the top things that those people think about us! I understand that there are some people that are like that. And I understand that those people are annoying. Because they annoy me too! These people, in my point of view, are not true Christians. They do NOT have much of a relationship with God.

True Christians... Are people that reject religion. Yes I just said REJECT religion! BUT! They love Jesus. They love him and have a RELATIONSHIP and FRIENDSHIP with him, other than a religion about him. These are the Christians that go places. These are the Christians that save people for God.

Anyway... That was a fun experience... Can't wait till later today! I guess we're going to use our facebooks to reach people... Ok... Well I guess we'll see what that entails.

I've Been Thinking

You know... I've been thinking... My life has been rather bumpy. Full of twists and turns that I made. I've made some mistakes. And it's caused some people to loose faith in me or to be scared of me.

The world separates us from God. God separates us from the world.

The world is full of sin. I wouldn't say that I am the sinner of the year but I do know what it feels like to be addicted to sin. The sin in my life was uncontrollable by myself alone. I needed help. Not only from my supportive friends and family but from my God as well.

Adam's sin forced the majority God's physical presence to separate from the world, because he was disgusted of it.

God hated/hates my sin. But he always loved/loves me no matter what I did/do. Just like the orbitz chick said! "No matter what!" No one around the world can forgive you like God can. I know that.

God loves you. Realize it.

Chapter 4

"No she doesn't." confirmed Justin.
"If she's really your best friend I think she deserves to know!" Jake demanded.
"No," Jake said, "she's like best friends with my parents! That would mean disaster for us!"
"Oh. Well let's not let that happen just yet. Ok?" replied Jake.

Just as Jake and Justin were finishing up, Samantha yelled down the hall, "Guys! Are you done in there? You do know I'm still here right? Ha!"
Justin followed closely by Jake, walks down the hall toward the kitchen, "Ok we're back! We have some catching up to do."

As they catch up Sam reveals to Justin that his parents miss him and hope he's doing ok. His parents pray for him every night and talk about how proud they are of their boy that they never talk to. Justin begins to break down, but quickly covers it with, "Excuse me, I need to go to the bathroom..."

With Justin gone, Jake is alone with Sam. The first words out of her mouth are, "So... How's the girlfriend?"
"Don't have one." replied Jake.
Sam says, "Want one?" Right before Jake can say anything Justin regains composure and rejoins the group. Just then Jake says, "Oh my goodness look at the time! We have dentist appointments to go to!" "Ok I guess I'll see you later Sam." said Justin. "Bye boys!" She walks out the door.

"We don't have dentist appointments do we." said Justin. Jake replies with, "Nope."

Chapter 3

At the door was his old best friend Sam. "Justin Henry, is that you???" Sam freaked.

"Samantha Joan!? Oh my god that IS you! I haven't seen you in what, two years?!" Justin stated.

"Well it HAS been a while... I'm surprised you recognized me! I cut my hair like what... 10 inches shorter!" replied Sam. Samantha Joan was Justin's best fiend at church years ago. When they were young they "dated," If you even call it that when you're ten years old... She was known and recognized as the girl who never cut her hair. And If she did, then it would be only an inch or two. Sam and Justin were friends all their young lives. Since they went to different schools and lived in different towns, they only saw each other at church. And now since Justin left church to live with Jake they lost contact with eachother.

"Come on in! We need to catch up!" Justin said while giving his friend a hug. They sit down at the kitchen table and Justin drinks his coffee, and pours a cup for Sam. Right as they begin to talk Jake walks down the hall toward the kitchen and hollers "Hey baby who was that?"
"Say hey Sam, this is my boy--BEST friend Jake..." stumbled Justin.
"H-hello J-Jake! I-I'm Sam! Sam stuttered as she stared at Jake. Jake, knowing that he was a very attractive man knows what's going on. And he is disgusted by it. He knows that she thinks he's cute. "Hi I'm Jake. How are you?" asked Jake. She didn't answer, she only stared... "Jus I need to talk to you!"
"Be right back Sammy." they head to the bedroom and Jake asks, "She doesn't know about me does she?"

Chapter 2

After a night like many before Jake and Justin wake up in each other's arms and begin their day... "Good morning Sir." Said Jake waking up Justin.
"My knight in shining armor has come to rescue me eh?" Justin replied.
"Rescue you?" said Jake, "What do you mean?"
"I was having a terrible dream..." Justin reported.
"Oh you were? Tell me about it!"
"Well, my parents found out about us." replied Justin in a very melancholy tone.
"oh... Well let's not think about that right now. That's not going to happen until you're good and ready." Jake stated. "want some coffee?! I know THAT'LL cheer you up!"
"Sure. Maybe it'll keep my mind off that dream..." Justin hypothosized.

Jake took him by the hand and led him to the kitchen. Jake, in his boxers, poured Justin a cup of coffee and placed it on the table in front of Justin, with a tablespoon of sugar and 2 creamers. Just what he liked. "Justin... What's wrong?" asked Jake.
"Nothing. Nothing's wrong..." affirmed Justin.
"Oh come on! Tell me! I know something's wrong with you, I can always tell." demanded Jake.
"Well I'm just worried." Justin stated.
"What about?" asked Jake.
"Well I--" **knock knock knock** before he could finish he was interrupted by a knock on the door. Jake ran to the bedroom to get some pants and Justin, in his pajamas, answered the door...

Chapter 1

(OK... Lame excuse for a book chapter but still what the hey... lol)

CHAPTER 1: There once was a boy, his name was Justin. He grew up in a family of six, both parents and three little brothers.as the oldest, a LOT of responsibility was dumped on him. Sometimes so much that he would do things that he would regret later on.

Justin wasn't just another 15 year old. He was a Pastor's Kid. Many expectations are put on PK's. People think, "He's the youth pastor's son right? He must be a young man of God!" But what people don't know is that he is hiding... Hiding his feelings, emotions, and history.

Since he was 12 years old, he had been addicted to pornography, homosexual pornography. These days of his young life perverted his emotions and way of life. At 13 he acquired his first boyfriend. - Jake. Now Jake, he wasn't raised very correctly... When he was born both of his parents were addicted to drugs, and he was put up for adoption. But his dad did get clean and took him back as his own. To this day Jake's mother is still not clean. His father on the other hand, not on drugs, but picked up smoking cigarettes and gambling. A bad influence on Jake...

Justin and Jake hooked up almost every night since they had been dating. How do Justin's parents allow him to act this way? They know nothing of it. He hasn't come out to them yet. Justin turned away from God. He used to be a tremendous christian. But now all that's left of him is a tremendously false facade of glory that he uses daily.

Justin, he can still remember that terrible night that changed his life... The night that they first had sex. That night was his first time. A terrible waste... He grew up hearing that God had created sex to be a beautiful thing! A thing to be shared between one man and one woman. He threw all that away to one person. A boy named Jake. Unlike Justin, Jake had done this before, he was used to the idea. Poor Justin, miss guided, perverted this early in life, yet Jesus still loves him. Justin has yet to understand this.

When Times are hard

Keep pushing through

Keep holding on

When you feel down

Stand still and think about it

Rest and pray

Sleep with your thoughts

Ignore your troubles

Keep in control...

On the brightest sunny day

You can feel so out of touch

Just keep going...

You'll be fine...

Sad, out of touch

Lonely, can't see straight

In a haze, I want to fall

Just keep going...

You'll be fine...

Vent Letter

Ok... I cant express in words what to put in this box. You have NO idea how hard this is to accept. Goodbye. We COULD have been friends longer. But you HAD to kick me while I was down. I wish you luck in life. Have a great summer...

Do you enjoy scaring me or giving me pain? Do you enjoy the fact that my friends ALL HATE you now? Do you enjoy the fact that for being one of the MOST charasmatic people EVER, you have no social skills? Do you realize that I have morals that you of all people lack?

My parents, my brothers, my close friends, the people you met through me, and the rest all dislike you for what you're doing to me. I dont know how you do it... But you seem to kick me RIGHT as i fall. Of course after you push me down. Now apperently, by your doing, the whole town of meriden wants to KILL me?! Right... Thats just your pot-head friends and drinking pals.

As I have said before. We both have a LOT of growing up to do. In each of us different places. More in some spots less in others, but we stiil have to nonetheless. Good luck with your game. Good luck with life... Good luck when your dad finally finds out that his little boy is a drinking, pot smoking, backstabber. And to the pastor's son no less... Have a great summer.

Untitled (Fine Arts?)

Birds of a feather flock together
Birds of mockery and deceit
Birds of hell and torment
Birds of evil design
Hell hath no furry like a man in rage
Hell doesn't hold a candle to people in a haze
Drunk in his own desires
Slowly he fades into fires
Higher he flies
The lower he falls
He's standing on the edge
He's looking down
He wants to jump!
He does...
He hits hard
He stumbles
To his feet
He climbs back up
Just to fall again
Back to his friends he still has fallen
Back to the life he always wanted
Back to back his worlds collide
A pastors son, he takes his life
Heaven or hell...
No one can tell...
Raised up right
Felt so wrong
They say "Your Future's bright!"
He's been holding on FAR too long
Away from his friends
Away from his fam'
Away from the god that's holding on to him
Extraordinary love
Extraordinary life
Extraordinary death...
Extraordinary god.

TOO MUCH DRAMA! AAA!

Wow... I listened to How to Save a Life by The Fray today and CRIED! WAAAY too much unnecessary drama between a friend and I... I don't know if this one will just blow over... We both have issues we need to work out... But neither of us wants to work on them... So we tear each other down... I hate that it's coming to this... But we are starting to loose our grip on ourselves, each other, and God. Today he told me to leave him alone... But I choose not to... Because we can BOTH get through this together... We can BOTH get through it together SAFELY, without too many hurt feelings... What we are doing to each other is hurting our friends too... And I HATE watching my friends get hurt because of something I did... I don't know what's going to happen next. I guess we'll just have to see...

Much Like Falling - Flyleaf

When I said good morning
I was lying
I was truly thinking of
How I might quit waking up
He pointed out how selfish
It would be to kill myself
So I keep waking up
It feels so much like falling
Dying while I wait to die
The fear of something or nothing
Lonely empty lie
I don't want to be here, lying
I don't want to be selfish anymore
I want so much to change
Learning your love everyday
There's still so much to know
You grip my wrists
I let go
It feels so much like falling
Separated from the fear
Aware of a destination far away from here
It feels so much like falling
Separated from the fear
Aware of a destination far away from here
Far away from here


Ok... Every heard a song when you think to yourself, "That sounds JUST like me!" Well... I have a LOT of those songs. And this is just one of them. This song is from Flyleaf's new album called Much Like Falling. Look it up. I love flyleaf and I suggest you checking 'em out! Thanks! haha!

ALL BETTER!

OK... About my last post... We got it all figured out. My friend never smoked anything or did any kind of drug... I was just REALLY worried about him and his safety...

Sunday, April 19, 2009

Ok... Help Me Please!

Ok... I'm in a predicament. A LOT of my friends say that this one friend went to a school dance Stoned last night... RIGHT after I hung out with him! And if you know me then you would know that I would NEVER use ANY addictive drug, legal or otherwise.

I don't know who to believe... He keeps denying that he has EVER been High... And everyone else says that he was yesterday... I'm trying to be a good influence on him... But I am NOT helping by bugging him about this... I don't know if I should just leave him alone or bug him till he confesses if he even has anything to confess to... I want to trust him REALLY bad... But it's his word vs. every one's. And if you know HIM, he acts high ALL the time... So I really don't know what to do about this...

So I don't know if that was him being him and other people just mistaking him for what he wasn't, OR if he really was stoned... Someone please give me some advice...

Friday, April 17, 2009

Wow... School... Fun... Drama... Fun... People... Fun... Ya... ANYWAY! Ya... BOOOOOOORING! Haha! Random I know...

AGAIN!? AAA!

Hey everyone...Brayden here... I fightin' a fire today... Again... I'm in a LOT of emotional stress and distress... I realize that some of you people think that I am a goody two shoes pastors kid but I'm not... I won't get into details, but I will say, be careful who you share your feelings with, and be careful with who you trust with your feelings. I have been let down too many times for a 15 year old. For only being 15 I know that I have a LOT of things that I still need to learn, and experience. I will also say that I have experienced a LOT more than the average 15 year old pastor's child...

People tell me about their problems... I listen to them... But no one knows about MY problems except my close friends... And I HATE it when people tell me things like, "Brayden, your life is not that depressing!" or, "You don't know what depression is!" But what a LOT of people don't know about me is that I am Clinically depressed AND bipolar... There's why I'm so depressed all the time. Or so hyper active, or just plain weird. Well... Tell me about it... Tell me how depressed you are about your dog dying... Let ME tell YOU about MY problems... Good luck handling THAT!

Monday, March 30, 2009

Once again...

Hey peeps! It's me again! Well... Remember my post "Looking for Something?" Well I'm in kind of the same situation. And I'm sure that you've heard rumors of me trying to kill myself... I've been depressed a WHOLE lot but I have NEVER been suicidal... I just wanted to get that out of the way... ANYWAY... Down to business...

Well... Last Thursday... I ran into some relationship issues... I got so confused and so frustrated with myself that I mentally broke down... And if you're wondering... I did NOT I repeat NOT try to kill myself... But instead I gave into the ONE addiction that I have trouble facing the most... I went into my room... Crying all the way... Grabbed up my pocket knife... And put three deep gashes in my arm...

Well... THAT week couldn't have ended worse for me... BUT when I went back outside to my friends that I had the issue with they freaked out. Because I had blood dripping down my arm. I ran back home... And JUST in time to meet my dad in the driveway... While the blood was pooling around my watch my dad and I discussed my issues...

While we were talking, one of my best friends came back to my house and asked if I was ok... He was the ONLY person that asked me if I was ok. That meant a LOT to me. He stayed with me from when he asked if I was ok, from me talking to my parents about it, from me cleaning up my arm, and all the way up to when we dropped him off at his house on the way to the hospital. All the way between those times, he made me laugh, cry, and get over my problems.

You know? I've been praying that God would send me a friend that was kind enough and cared enough for me that that person would NEVER let me fall too far... I think I met the real him that Thursday. God is always there to help us. He can get you out of ANY situation.

God sure did help... BUT I was talking about a real person! Without God and him, I would be even more depressed than when I was then. You know who you are! Thank you for everything YOU'VE done to help me get over what I'VE done... I love you and I will never forget you. I will never leave you like you never left me.

Thanks for readin,

What To Do

Follow your heart they say
Do what you want they say
Be who you want to be
Love who you want
Have a little fun
Sin really isn't sin
Ignorance is bliss
Happiness is death
Fun is a sin
Be a good boy
Have a great day
I love you too
I don't know what to do
I don't know where to go
I'm trapped in my mind
High with despair
No sleep tonight
Nothing but air

Depression Hurts

High in my emotions
Low in self esteem
My heart is overwhelmed
My strength is overcome
Above the watermark
Below sea level
My thoughts sink away from me
My eyes treat me with sin
My mind overtakes my heart
Deeper deeper deeper
Lower lower lower
My emotions lead me astray
Once again I am deep
Deep in depression
Deep in sorrow
Deep deep deep
Sometimes I feel to high
But now I feel so low
I cry but no one listens
I speak but no one hears
I scream but I am rejected
I ball my eyes out
Blood could flow
Blood could run
Blood for now I keep
Blood stays in the wound
For now...
I am too depressed to cut
I am too depressed to die
Again and again and again
I feel the pain and sorrow
I do not feel the pain
I feel the depression of pain
I feel the joy of being angry
The sheer power feel
The power of angry wrath
The power or raging sadness

Natures Artificial Beauty!











In Here (Pretty Dark...)

In here

No one likes me in here
No one loves me in here
No one cares enough in here
No one makes me feel in here

I want to be loved in here
I want to survive in here
I want to be in here
I want to cry in here

I need care in here
I need love in here
I need to feel in here
I need to be helped in here

I want to live in my maze of woeful, disturbed silence...

In here...

I'm... At School... And... I'm Bored...

I'm at school... On the computer... And I'm bored...
I realized something... People... Are... WEIRD...
I've met a lot of people during my time at public school... A lot of... DIFFERENT people...
Different in the way that their attitudes, emotions, and their personalities differ greatly!
The teachers are also pretty interesting...
From ones that tell us stories about how they got drunk then they were five...
To ones that are more after god than I am...
I've also met some people who are my close friends, but they like to get wasted during the weekend.
And other friends that have never said a cuss word in their life! And that they love god WAAAAAY more than I do...
I must confess that I'm not as in love with him as I used to be. I used to be so after God that I would do anything for him. But at the moment I'm really struggling to keep afloat and out of trouble with God... AND my parents...
My life is hard. But not TOO hard. Pretty average... But I've just been through a little more stress than the average person... And I'm a little bit more experienced with life than some... So right now I'm asking for prayer and for your encouragement. Text me, call me, or e-mail me sometime and tell me that everything's going to be alright... Thanks for everyting!

Going Under

Going under
Falling faster than before
Going under
Falling farther all the day
I can not breathe
I can not think
I can not see straight
My eyes are cloudy
My thoughts are rough
Picking up past addictions
They see through my disguise
People all around me
Call to my screams
As before I am alone
Before God's love
Before his peace
Just like before
I'm falling away
I'm going under
Too dark? Tell me! mooretbrayden@yahoo.com

Lord/God's Love (let's be creative next time shall we?)

Lord,
Fill me for I am empty
Make me proud for I am humble
Make me whole for I am broken
Make me like you for I am different


God's Love:
In this misty world
God's love is sanity
God's love is unfailing
His love is all I cling to

In this world we're told that we wont make it
In this world we're told that there's no hope
But there is a hope
A hope in Jesus Christ

Thanks for readin!

Health Class (Freshmen Blues) (hehe) O.o

Sitting in the classroom
Freshmen are a' buzz
The teacher keeps on yelling
But not a one is listening
Mrs. McCary's gettin' angry
Bryan won't stop jetting
All the while I'm in the back
As innocent as a baby
Obsessed over their privates
Those freshmen once again
Puberty's not struck them
They are so immature
Constant use of "f" bomb
Trev' has gone insane
All the while I'm in the back
Tryin' not to listen...
I'm a sophomore dag nabbit!


lol i got a kick out of writin' that 7th hour today...

Another one of my moods... Saturday, 1/24/09

Saturday, 1/24/09

 

OH! How I love

OH! How I dream

OH! How I long for your touch

 

My, how I love

My, how I want

My, how I fantasize

 

I love you more than life

I love you more than the air

I love you more than you know!

 

I would kill for you

I would do anything fro you

I would die for you!

 

You never forget your first love

I will never forget you!

I will for always, remember your name

 

From the day we met

To the day I die

I will be thinking of you

 

For now I cry tears of sadness

But when we fall again

Tears of joy will flow…

Nightly Rant Friday, 1/23/09

Friday, 1/23/09

 

Feeling of love

Feeling of being loved

A thing that can not be bought

 

More precious than silver

More valuable than gold

More amazing than the gods

 

Stand your ground

Someone will come

To love you back

 

All the while I will be lusting

After a one

After the one that I seem to need

 

I need to be loved

Not in the way of a ‘rent

In the way of a close, close friend

 

Not just a friend

But more than that

More than the random “luv ya”

 

I want a friend to say “I Love You”

I want a friend that says “I Need You”

I need a single person

 

With a kiss it be sealed

That our love never fail

Forever and ever always

My Nightly Ravings...

A sensual kiss

A friendly hug

A dying breath

The Screams of life

I’m falling faster!

 

Let go of me!

I need my space!

I need you OUT of here!

I’m too confused to think!

You feel so close

Yet SO far away!

 

For the invisible

I speak

For the unnoticed

I voice

For the ones that go by you EVERY day and you take for granted

I SCREAM!

 

Let go of me!

I need my space!

I need you OUT of here!

I’m too confused to think!

You feel so close

Yet SO far away!

 

Standing on the razor’s edge

Blade slipping through my skin

As blood leaks I become insane

Don’t feel sorry

Feel PROUD!

 

I’m happy now

I am calm

In the painful hours of the night

I feel full

I feel loved

I feel IN love

 

I am DEPRESSED.

Wisdom IS Good For The Soul!

Lookin' For Something?


What you're HOPEFULLY looking for is God.
I was... I had a rough couple of days in the beginning this week, so I went back to my birthtown to calm down and think. It was hard.
This world is full of "hell." Yeah no joke. You either need to know how to deal with it, or avoid it, and I've had a LOT of it lately. Yes little ol' Brayden is in a bunch of Hell... Sweet, little Brayden, little, innocent Brayden is in trouble... I know that's what a lot of you are saying.
Well ANYWAY, I went back to my birthtown looking for God, and I found him. His peace is on me now. Other than being grounded I feel GREAT! It feels good to start the new year off with a good attitude. This year I'm going to start with a clean slate. And I'm going to scrub at the little marks that just won't wipe off.
I know what it feels like to be lost. I'm only 15 but I do know. I've felt far away from him, close to him, and even as if he was non-existent. Very recently I felt SO bad, that I was dead-set on quitting going to church, quitting reading my Bible, and quitting on God. But I know now that I was wrong. I know now that God is forever, eternal. That God lives in me and should be seen with every breath I breathe. Thank you Lord! You've helped me see the "light," within the darkness that surrounds my life!

Oh! And Happy New Year!
