Snowfall kind of love

       As much as I love snow, I dislike this obscene amount of it. I mean, a little covering or blanket is beautiful but this, these 14 inches and counting is a cloud of doom! Outside is no longer a winter wonderland but an abyss of agony. I mean, I love being in my house with my family and snow days are delightful but cabin fever is definitely setting in right now at 6:15. I just want to go out. Not in the snow cause I already did that today to shovel and make a snowman (that failed) but go out instead to the mall or somewhere. Anywhere.  I miss the summer for numerous reasons which shall go unsaid. 

Anyway, I've spent a lot of time on the computer today...a little too much time. I must be going insane from some chemical in the brain I mean the computer haha. 

Quote of the day: "When you spent your entire life with someone and they start to die, and you feel that severing, you do things without thinking because what you have to face is so unthinkable." ~From How to Make an American Quilt It was a fantastic movie; watch it. 

The end is near? No, this is just the beginning!

Her story is absolutely incredible. She's changed the world one step at a time so I've decided to post her story on here. We all have a purpose and different experiences that make us all so beautiful and unique. 

Please support and pray for To Write Love On Her Arms. 

Also, this week is National Eating Disorders Awareness week, please remember to think of and pray for all those who struggle or have struggled with eating disorders. Hope is here. Trust me. A year ago I'd be rolling my eyes at someone who would write this, but I've experienced the pain first hand and now I experience life and all it's glory! Beauty is not in the superficial appearances but in the compassion and true actions that each human being is capable of achieving. It is a lifestyle filled with love, and faith, helping me and others to realize how each day has a succinct, important purpose. You can change the world, or even the world around you through your words and actions. 

I live each day devoted to God, and try to reflect his image in my words and actions to bring hope to someone else who needs it. I'll be clear, I am NO saint, but I do attempt which God understands. We all have difficulties and imperfections, they are what make us human.

Feeling hope by one person and inspiring hope in others-- that is a cycle of love and happiness and trust. Not a cycle of pain. Surviving pain is what leads us to happiness. We have to get through those difficult moments in life to truly comprehend and feel the beauty of life in these new moments. Each day is a blessing one filled with ups and downs but you are not being judged for this. You are beautiful and can make a difference. Believe this and love this and trust this. You CAN make a difference. 

You may think you have to strive for perfection, but you do NOT. Perfection isn't real, what is real is the lifestyle you lead and the effect you leave on others. You do not have to be perfect, you should be real, A true, genuine person. It takes hard work, but it is possible and is totally worth it.

Everyone wants a happy ending like in fairy tales, but there are no happy endings...only happy BEGINNINGS. 

Surround yourself with love and positivity. 

Peace to all,

Carolyn

Day by Day

Returning home from DDA's ( retreat weekends at CYFM) is always very difficult. Returning home to reality is even more difficult. Thankfully, I am making major positive changes in my life as a result of this day by day agape retreat. The girls I encountered inspired me as much as I inspired them. I told them of my conversion and transformation, showing them my true self, and ended up having my second real conversion and transformation. Being on this TEAM for the retreat has helped me in so many ways and I just can't wait to spread God's word to all who need/desire it. I needed this weekend. Thank the Lord. 

Praising God with a completely full heart, 

Carolyn

What was your favorite year?

I'd like to go with 1996.. I was four with no worries and didn't know pain besides getting the occasional splinter.
