My husband and I just watched a really good movie. It's called The Ultimate Gift. It is a Christian made film so slightly cheesy at times, but overall very good.
The main message of the movie was that money generally corrupts people. I remember hearing a good quote, "Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely."
Money is power in many ways.
I suppose I count myself fortunate then that I have never had money.
Well for about one month after a life insurance check I was rich. :)
But it certainly didn't last. And money never lasts.
Love really is the only thing that lasts. People don't last, because people may die at any time.
But love and the ability to love others lasts as long as you are alive, and that has the greatest reward and return for what you give.
They say for people who are struggling with depression that they just need to go out and help someone.
Many who retire fall into depression because they are doing nothing then to benefit society.
I have always chosen more menial jobs I guess one would say, jobs in customer service, where the pay isn't great but the satisfaction I get from working is so much more, because I love being able to help people. There is no greater calling in life than to help others.
This is why I am very much looking forward to being a mom. I am actually excited about the 24/7 aspect of it and all the serving I will get to do.
I know it will make me a better person. Because service always makes us better people.
Every job I have picked has been doing something to serve others; child care, waitressing, or simple cashier jobs. But I love those the most.
A friend's dad had a talk with me once and questioned how much self-esteem I had. He could not get why I would go for such simple jobs when, according to him, I have the intellect to be an assistant to a CEO in a company or something.
But it has never been about money for me. I always knew money can't buy you happiness.
Money almost always ends up disappointing really.
I am hardly ever satisfied with purchases I make when I do spend money. The whole buying things to bring satisfaction is an illusion. The richest people are the most miserable.
So in the end, love is all that matters. Loving others and finding people that love you. Not money. :)

Observations and Picking a Mate
My brother is visiting and it has been so nice to have him here. Out of anyone in the world he knows me the best, since he has been around me for 28 years and we walked the same path most of our lives.
He gave some feedback about myself which was probably good since he is one of the few people in the world I have always listened to. Well he is the only one my whole life that I have listened to, but the other two people that I will are my mom and best friend Ashley. They have earned the right to speak into my life also because they have been there for me coutless times. But my brother is practically the same person as me so I know he understands me the best out of anyone in the world. :) I love you Nate. :)
My brother said that I have a tendency to expect too much, from myself and others, but mainly myself, and that it drains my energy. Which I can totally see. The only question is how do I fix that? I'm not sure really.
Ben is helping somewhat with that, with me not thinking I always have to be doing something. I think that comes from living in California. The Cali mindset is you always have to be achieving something or your existence is pretty much worthless, at least it seems. Where as Ben is from Texas, which, praise God, has a completely different culture. Things are more laid back there, slower, more calm. Eventually we will be moving there, which will probably be very good for me, as it will help me to slow down I think; to not worry about always achieving so much.
Other things that my brother being here has made me think of is that I need to write a blog about my Grandma. She always said I would write her book someday, which I don't know if I could write a whole book about her life, but I can certainly devote a blog to her and share all the stories she's told me over the last 14 years. She has lived an truly amazing life.
Another thing we noted; we were analyzing the marriages of everyone in our family. I realized that the only real successful marriage in our family was between one of my uncles and his wife, my mom's brother. But every single uncle on my dad's side was divorced once, so their first marriage didn't work, and most have issues in their current marriage. Very sad, but true. But I have seen a good model in my uncle and his wife. They were my primary family that we hung out with for the last 14 years, so praise God for that. My mom's marriage is now good, but things were not good until my current step-dad sadly.
I wonder why most people botched things on their first attempt? Perhaps they were too young in their first marriage? They picked for looks rather than character? I'm not sure. But it seems the first one does not work out for most, for some reason. Luckily Ben and I have already had our first marriage experience. So we are on the second, which should be the one that lasts, like all my uncles have. Everyone deserves a second chance. :) But my uncle is the only one that did it right the first time. The other marriage that has lasted is my grandparents, but I'm not sure how happy I would say their marriage is really.
I have read statistics that the closer someone is to 30 when they get married the greater their odds are of sticking with that person and not getting divorced. Why? Because you don't really know who you are or what you are looking for until you are about 30 or close to it. So people pick someone in their early twenties only to discover later that they have drifted apart because they grew into two different people. Or they just did not think as much in their early 20's when they picked someone as they would have later in their 20's. Perhaps because the teen mindset is that we are invincible and we can do anything. We think everything will work out. This takes some time to wear off in our 20's. This can cause people to pick people that they know are a bad pick but they think they can do anything so it will work out somehow. So sad. Better to pick someone you know is right for you through and through, that has the same background, social status etc. Ben and I are a perfect match in so many ways, it's like we grew up in the same setting all along. But we are both more mature now, so we could see that and discern that.
If you are reading this and are still looking for your special someone, put a lot of thought into what you are looking for before you even date someone. Also, you cannot know who is compatible with you if you do not even really know yourself yet. So take time to know yourself. That was the problem in the movie Runaway Bride. She did not know herself yet, so did not know what she really wanted. It takes most of us years to figure ourselves out. But there are ways to speed up the process, such as by writing, journaling, meditation etc.....spending time alone with yourself.
I hope this blog has been useful and informative. May God bless you! And may he give you wisdom in your choice of who you will marry, because it will affect your entire life, so choose wisely. :)
Take care!

Poems To My Family
To Mom
Always willing to listen
Gentle, humble, fearing God
A great spiritual leader
A model of service to God
A dedication to church and loving God’s
family
Studious, disciplined, a hard worker
Always providing for me
Always taking care of me
Strict, but in love
Watching closely my friends, apparel,
influences
Helping me walk on the straighter path
Expecting more of me
Pushing me to excel in everything
Having high hopes for me
I hope I did not let you down too much, Mom
I hope you have been proud of me
I have always looked up to you
I admire you
For your perseverance, honesty, kindness
For how you survived through so much
How you kept pressing on
And didn’t give up
As a result,
“Her children rise up and bless her.”
May God bless you mom!
For all you have done for me
And for all that you have been
You are my hero, my rock
My guiding light in so many ways
My beacon of peace and serenity
A safe harbor that I could always return to
And find rest and solace from the storms of
life
Thank you for your care, your concern
Your dedication to make me all that I could
be
To help me grow into a pure woman of God
Your efforts were not wasted
God has watered what you helped grow
Though I have taken some detours
I always get back on the path you set me on
I thank you for all the effort you put into
me
You are amazing
And I love you!
To My Step-Dad
I know you thought I didn’t like you
You came into a role that was very hard
But I am glad that you did
The man in your place before greatly broke
our trust
But you have redeemed the titles
Of caring father who protects for me
And faithful spouse worthy of trust for my
mom
I’m sorry I was not more accepting of you
at the beginning
I’m sorry I was not more polite
I’m sorry I was full of doubt and suspicion
But you have been a huge blessing to our
family
Bringing grace and new life to it
I have always seen you like a solid oak
tree
Unwavering, patient, and resilient
You too never gave up
You too had to endure a lot
You are strong, secure and at peace
More than anyone I have ever known
You embody more of the fruit of the Spirit
Than I have ever seen in a person
You are very much like Jesus to everyone
around you
You are patient, kind, loving and humble
Yet you are incredibly intelligent and
gifted
Our family has been so much better since
you came into it
You brought fun and good times
You helped us bond as a family again
Thank you for all the meals out
And all the mini golf
And all the ways you tried to help our
family have fun
Thank you for your prayers
For your example
For the wonderful Christian model that you
were and are
I can only hope to be more like you someday
To be less judgmental
And more patient and more loving, like you
Thank you for all that you provided for us
We are externally grateful for you
For who you are and for all you’ve done
Thank you David, for everything
You are awesome!
To My Big Brother
So many memories with you
Riding bikes, playing video games,
exploring
You were always so funny, such a good friend
I always looked up to you, admired you
Wanted to be more like you
You seemed so smart and wise to me when we
were kids
Like you could do anything
You were so cool
But a bomb was dropped into our child hood
And we got a little lost
A little broken, a little confused
About life, about family, about God
But may you still trust God
That He loves you
May you remember him
Even though life sucks sometimes
May you never forget where you came from
The bible studies, church, worship as a
family
May mom’s efforts to set you on the
straight path
Not have been in vain
May you seek to honor God in everything
Even if you get side tracked sometimes
I pray I will see you in heaven one day,
big brother
I pray we can play Frisbee on the beaches
of heaven together
I pray we can laugh and talk about old
times in heaven
Someday
May God watch over you in your life
May He bless you and bring you good times
May you find what you are alive to do
And may you see meaning and purpose in your
life
I love you more than you know
And I am truly lucky and blessed
To have as cool of a brother as you
You are the best!
To My Grandma
I have always greatly admired you
Have always looked up to you
For your ministry to help the less
fortunate
For your time as a teacher
When you inspired youth to be better
You inspired me very much to be better
When I was a youth
I wanted to make you proud of me
I wanted to be different than I had been
before
I always admired all you had to endure in
life
Being raised in an orphanage
But still finding Grandpa and staying
married for 60 plus years
Raising a Godly family where everyone was
devoted to the Lord
Serving in church, helping the poor
You always had so much confidence
Such a zest for life
Such an ambitious and courageous spirit
That was quite contagious
You are a great encourager
A person who puts wind beneath other
people’s wings
You make people believe they can do
What they never thought they could
You know how to build others up with your
never ending charm
You are regal, elegant and very admirable
You make people that are around you feel
better
And increase their faith in God
You challenge people to be better
To not get stuck in a pit
To not give up on life
You had such a hard life
Yet you never gave up
You just keep pushing on, striving,
thriving
You have truly been an inspiration to our
family
Our guiding light
The glue that has held us all together
The life of the party
The leader of our pack
You have always been strong, always
dependable
And you never ask anything for yourself
Only that we would listen to you
And I was always happy to
To see the way your eyes would light up
when you told a story
Or the wisdom that you wanted to impart to
us
You are truly an amazing person
You are an inspirer
A life giver
A gushing water to those in a dessert
Bringing life and happiness to all who have
known you
I hope one day I can be just as infectious
as you have been
Just as personable and friendly to everyone
I meet
Just as confident and knowledgeable
You seemed to know everything
About nutrition, about faith and God, about
life, about people
You are by far the wisest person I have
ever known
Thank you for all the wisdom you imparted
to our family
Thank you for helping us grow strong
In the Lord, in confidence, in happiness
Thank you for all the times you supported
me
And came to my school choir concerts etc.
You have always been there for me
Cheering me on
Encouraging me, believing in me
Thank you
You have always been wonderful
To My Grandpa
Thank you for trying to be a father figure
to me
When I didn’t have one
And for taking me bowling so many times
Thank you for all your wisdom and concern
For asking me questions about my life
And showing interest
Thank you for being such a great spiritual
leader for our family
Thank you for saying on holidays,
“Let’s all share what the Lord has been
teaching us.”
And for calling us together for family
prayer circle times so often
Thank you for challenging us all in our
faith
And helping us strive to be better
In every aspect of life
Thank you for being so strong
For never being a burden or showing it if
you felt weak
You always seemed to be without problems
And not have a care in the world
You were so gentle, so caring, so
compassionate
You were the best grandpa a girl could ask
for
I always felt protected by you, and safe
because of you
Thank you for all the home repairs you did
for my mom and I
And all the ways you took care of us
Thank you for raising my mom
And taking care of Grandma all these years
You have been the spiritual rock of our
family
And we are all indebted to you so much
For increasing our faith and challenging us
Thank you for being such a great leader
I love you J
