so while I was sleeping I hit my head..............

You ever hear bits and pieces of a story that someone is telling someone else and instantly fill in the rest of it (in your head, of course) with your own ending. I tend to do that alot. It comes out quite funny, sometimes disturbing, sometimes spiritual, and sometimes just plain weird. The ending usually depends on what kind of mood I am in. I have a very vivid imagination, unfortunately, so my mind tends to explore things that I would rather be left unexplored.
Anyway, the point of this is, for those of you who understand, I am posting this late for Unit 3 blog post because of my story that happened to me on Sunday. Which leads to the title of my post, "so while I was sleeping I hit my head". It is a normal thing for me to hit some part of me on something because I am a natural born klutz. However, I have never whacked my head while I was sleeping, then later fell asleep, then later was woken up and had a horrible headache, nausea, and was dizzy. Then I went to the hospital because everyone kept telling me to and my blood pressure was sky high because of my horrible headache and then they did a cat scan and my brain is still there...................now it's Saturday night on February 27th, 2010 and I am just barely beginning to feel a tiny bit normal.
Fun times, fun times. You never know what you do while you are sleeping until you wake up with a sharp pain..................
So,
while I was sleeping,
I hit my head..................

another day gone by..................

It has been a long but successful day as I try to complete as much of my schoolwork as possible. I feel elated that I have started early in the week and have committed to making this work for me and not against me. It's different for me this time, I can feel that something has changed. I attribute it to my trust in God, that He will help me through no matter what I have to go through. I have a renewed faith, and I feel that is showing in my actions not only at school, but also at work. I hope everyone knows that no matter how difficult life seems, you have no where to go but up as long as you believe in yourself and trust that God will be there for you.

Music and Me, and you too.

What is the reason that you enjoy music? Is it the sound, the beat, the way it makes you tap your feet? Is it how it makes you feel when you hear it? Does some of the songs you hear make you cry or make you irritated? For me, any song seems to lift my spirits and I sing along. It's not even the words. Most of the time it's the music behind the words. I don't like everything, but I will sing along to anything. It is annoying at times, especially when I don't care for the song. I don't why I do it. It drives me crazy, but I do it any way.
My main enjoyment is the sound. When I hear music, it is like it fills something in me that I didn't know was missing. We can't have music at work, which really throws me off, but when I get in my car to go home, I take the longer route home so that I can listen to my favorite songs that help to settle me. Everyone has an explanation to what music does for them. What does music give to you?

.......and you thought it was going to be easy?

Life is never easy or fair. Let's just put that out there. We hear it all the time, so it can't hurt to be said again, right?
Wrong. I say that it is too easy and too simple to phrase it that way. It's a cop out. I say that if we have worked hard and fought hard and struggled and put up with too much and argued and given more of ourselves than we ever thought we could that we shouldn't say life is never easy. Or unfair.
What we should say is: "As a woman, I have been given this task before me to accomplish, and as a person, I am going to complete it come hell or high water. I am not going to take the easy road because I won't become a statistic of failure. I will become a positive influence, not a negative one, and I will make my impression on others a good one. I have strength, I have influence, I have power, I have a voice, and I will be heard!"
You see, life was never meant to be uncomplicated or unbiased, that is why it's called Life.
