Something to think about during this time of year....

[1969Mach1]

As some may know I'm not a religious person, although it doesn't stop me from believing in miracles. It really made me think of life is so many ways that I have forgotten to look at it. Christmas is one of the most depressing times for people. Although it is very cheerful and loving, it does have the highest suicide rate. I know a lot of people have had some issues on the board in the last few weeks that I've read. So I hope they get something out of reading this like I did. I am currently going threw some issues with my ex-gf after pretty much 18 months of being with her. She has dropped me like that, from 1 night spending one of the best evening with her to 1 week later where she has left me and is kissing some other guy she really likes, and I get the only reason of her wanting something new. She has pretty much stopped talking to me, I am an unconvient to her if I try to talk to her. + I have some legal issues I'm in right now, school to deal with and everything else. I get threw the days, looking ahead and knowing it has to get better, and one day I will look back and say thanks to the people that put me threw the hell to make me learn so many lessons and I will just wave good-bye and tell them I hope they enjoy there lives now. I will stand beside the great friends I had that were always there for me threw those times. One person I would like to thank is Jenn (Janeofalltrades), sorry for bringing you up but you are always there for me to talk too. If anyone doesn't know her that well, she is an amazing person and always knows what to say. I know I thank you all the time, but everyone really must know how amazing you are. And if anyone bad mouths her, they'll have to deal with me. lol

With all that said, I wish everyone a happy holidays, and a Merry Christmas. Read this following email as it explains a lot in progressing in life. I am not sure if the first story is really true, I guess it's up to you to believe. I like the little sayings at the end.

Enjoy... §am.

Caller ID

Isn't it amazing how God works in our lives! On a Saturday night
several weeks ago, this pastor was working late, and decided to call his wife before he left for home. It was about 10:00 PM, but his wife didn't answer the phone. The pastor let it ring many times.

He thought it was odd that she didn't answer, but decided to wrap up a few things and try again in a few minutes. When he tried again she answered right away. He asked her why she hadn't answered before, and she said that it hadn't rung at their house. They brushed it off as a fluke and went on their merry ways.

The following Monday, the pastor received a call at the church
office, which was the phone that he'd used that Saturday night.

The man that he spoke with wanted to know why he'd called on Saturday night. The pastor couldn't figure out what the man was talking about. Then the man said, "It rang and rang, but I didn't answer." The pastor remembered the mishap and apologized for disturbing him, explaining that he'd intended to call his wife.

The man said, "That's OK. Let me tell you my story. You see, I
was planning to commit suicide on Saturday night, but before I did, I prayed, 'God if you're there, and you don't want me to do this, give me a sign now.'

At that point my phone started to ring. I looked at the caller ID, and it said, 'Almighty God'. I was afraid to answer!"

The reason why it showed on the man's caller ID that the call came from "Almighty God" is because the church that the pastor attends is called Almighty God Tabernacle!!

If you believe that God answers prayers then pass this on. God bless!


READ EACH SENTENCE SLOWLY AND THINK ABOUT IT.

Love starts with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a tear.

Don't cry over anyone who won't cry over you.

Good friends are hard to find, harder to leave, and impossible to forget.

You can only go as far as you push.

Actions speak louder than words.

The hardest thing to do is watch the one you love, love somebody else.

Don't let the past hold you back, you're missing the good stuff.

Life's short. If you don't look around once in a while you might
miss it.

A BEST FRIEND is like a four leaf clover, HARD TO FIND and LUCKY TO HAVE.

Some people make the world SPECIAL just by being in it.

BEST FRIENDS are the siblings God forgot to give us.

When it hurts to look back, and you're scared to look ahead, you can look beside you and your BEST FRIEND will be there.

TRUE FRIENDSHIP "NEVER" ENDS. Friends are FOREVER.

Good friends are like stars....You don't always see them, but you know they are always there.

Don't frown. You never know who is falling in love with your smile.

What do you do when the only person who can make you stop crying is the person who made you cry?

Nobody is perfect until you fall in love with them.

Everything is okay in the end. If it's not okay, then it's not the
end.

Most people walk in and out of your life, but only friends leave
footprints in your heart.

Send this one to everyone special in your life, even the people who really make you mad sometimes and to the people whose lives you want to be in!!!

And send it back to the person who sent it to you if they mean
something to you!!

Remember, every minute spent angry is sixty seconds of happiness wasted.

AWESOME PRAYER:

May today there be peace within you. May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be. "I believe that friends are quiet angels who lift us to our feet when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly."
