Religion
I am not a person who is big on religion, I would like to think of religion as a divider of people. However I do believe in one god, how you worship and praise should be in your own way. Serving god and being a believer is something so personal and so precious, that I don’t think it’s fair to have folks telling you how to have a relationship with god.
Or if your not a believer, same thing, you don’t need anyone telling you
your wrong for not believing. Some people are raised with that factor in their life some embrace it and some don’t. we were brought into this world with a soul of our own, and we will leave it with that same soul, treat it well.

Family Matters
Family Matters. We don’t pick them, we just enter into them. However the ones that we are born with are not necessarily the ones we will always have in life. Situations change, people change. The morality and strength of the root of that family determines whether or not you will have them through life, or not. Even if you don’t see what you think someone in your family should be doing, doesn’t mean that they are not doing it! Take time to find out, get to know those who you think may be losing their way. And maybe it just may be you who have lost their way. Family matters don’t count them out!

Blood Diamonds, Movie
Blood Diamonds. Controversies about the film Blood Diamond starring Leonardo DiCaprio as Danny Archer, and Djimon Hounsou as Solomon Vandy. One of the controversies of this film was that the casting directors promised 27 children and teens who were amputees, that they would receive prosthetics for being in the film. However, several months after the completion of the film the amputees still have not received the prosthetics.

Tenacious D and the pick of destiny
"Tenacious D and The Pick of Destiny", I absolutely loved that movie! Jack Black is very talented, singing and acting. Co-star Kyle Gass was like the yin to Jacks yang; very funny combo. Story line was funny and rocked out! Really doesn’t get any better than that.

Thieves of Charity
It was said that some men got caught stealing donations form the salvation army through video tape. What exactly is the thought process on this? It’s hard enough to receive enough donations just to keep belly’s full let alone for anything else. What could one be thinking , to put them in the mind set to want to take from those who have to receive clothing, food, and shelter, through charity. A very sickening thing to take from people, especially children in need. Serious prayer is needed to make it through these times!

Funny Little childhood poem
Funny little poem I read as a child. One morning in the middle of the night , two dead men began to fight. Back to back they faced each other, pulled out a knife and shot one another. When the def policeman heard the noise he pulled out a gun and shot the two dead boys. If you don’t believe my story is true ask the blind man he saw it too.
