I confess I am feeling young again - I know my age says I should be a granny type, but it's never gonna happen, my blond brain won't let it....young at heart and in love....I can't stand it....sigh....

I have to confess, i'm a bit bummed. Today I'm 50. And although I've learned a whole lot in life, I don't feel proud.

Seems like my whole life, good things just went meant to be. I am glad to be saved, as it determines my finish line. And that's great! But I wish things would have turned out better in my relationships. I know I'm a good person, but why does it seem that sometimes the folks who are crappy and proud always win?

Try Psalm 73... "But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh slipped. For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked...

Winning your heart's desire is a good place to start. Now, that it truly a blessing.

I agree. If you fill your God with the Lord than anything else is a complement and not a completion. you can enjoy someone else in a different way when the love of God and contentment is in your heart. I'm glad that some people found that in each other... I would suppose the best part of being a tourist is when you travel to the place where JesusLives. :)

First off HAPPY BIRTHDAY if you just turned 50 today (life begins there you know).... and then don't give up there is someone out there for you just keep saying your prayers... I didn't know what to pray for in a spouse but my friend was doing all the praying for both of us. God helped us find each other and it has been a wonderful revelation for me. Because he did know what to pray for he found me... So start praying maybe there is another she out there who doesn't know what to pray for and you will be the one praying for you both....God works in mysterious ways... I can vouch for that....Blessings to you in your walk with Jesus

It's midnight. I must confess. I never tell anyone when something good happens to me in case it fails. Last week, I got a really nice job writing and I got paid for work I did for two days last week. I haven't told my mum about it though I know she's been worried and praying I get a job. I just hate seeing enthusiasm and excitement and hope. But yeah... I'm really thankful to God for being there for me. Hopefully, I will get to optimism some day...

Optimism is the next step after hope. Keeping walking forward and you will get there. Jesus will walk with you at your own pace. Beyond optimism is a place called happiness.

There is a certain woman that I love with all of my heart and I intend to marry her. This will happen sooner rather than later. She makes me very sappy and she is one of a kind so I am going to snatch her up and make her mine. There has been a lot of prayer and reflection involved in this decision and I know from God that it is the most important one I will make for the rest of my life. It will also be the best one. God is love and I love my woman.

Other than breathless right now are you trying to make me cry? Keep going you might be successful.....I love you to honey and you already know my answer even though that question has not been asked yet. Makes it easier to ask knowing the answer huh???? Hearts to you...forever and ever....until I really do breathe my last.....

“I would go to any extent in my art to fathom the mystery of humankind’s existence. I want to understand death. I want to understand solitude. I want to understand struggle. I want to understand the philosophy of a growing flower in the middle of a swamp.” -lav diaz

I confess that i have the same obssession as this talented artist.
