I went with my husband and boys to go see the detroit tigers play. It was important to my husband that we all go for my youngest boy's birthday. I must say as much as I tried I did not enjoy myself. I wasn't keen on going in the 1st place. Looking back now I must say I am somewhat ashamed of myself. I should've done my best to remember why we were all there to begin with and now I see what my husband was trying to do bless his heart.I got a reallly bad sunburn and I was drained and I let it get the better of me.Sammy had a good time and that is what counts.although I was winey when the game went in overtime and I think that is why sammy said it was ok that we went ahead and left.We are only here on borrowed time and sometimes it's so hard to remember that.At time life can seem as though it would go on forever.The fact is lives are forever changing and we must remember this because it helps prepare us for the next phase.

I have been a born again christian now going on 3 years. I must say i am still profoundly amazed at how the Lord continues to work changes in me. It took a horrible tragedy for me to come to Him and this did not happen over night.I work in a nursing home as a nurse aide and whenever anyone gives me a compliment I do my best to remember who gives me the strength and the power to be great at what I do. So I usually say well I cannot take the credit that goes to the Lord. I was not brought up in a nonchristian enviorment my mom always told me there is a God and told me what she knew about Jesus as well. Knowing God truly loves me and wants me as his child has given me a whole knew perspective on life.It has worked wonders for me especially in my workplace. Through Gods love for and teaching I have learned that I can remain peaceful on the inside even though my world might be crazy and stressed on the outside.
