I know there are a lot of people out there, that want to follow the bible and they claim that being gay is a sin and all of that. That’s fine for them, they can believe anything they want. I think religion should be kept out of it. The two should have nothing to do with one another. We were put on this earth to be happy and prosper, if it means loving someone of the same sex, so be it. Seriously who are you to tell someone how to live their life, will you be sitting in their home watching their every move? NO of course not, so get off your homophobic trip and let them be. I strongly believe this because I have a few friends that are gay, and my sister is gay. And I will always stand up for her, and equality for all people. If you don’t agree with what I say that’s fine, I’m not here to debate about it, because I will win lol. NO seriously I’m just here to share my views/thoughts on the topic, and that’s my two cents on this topic

I couldn’t help it, but I looked out the window on the way home from a birthday party last weekend, and just had to take a few photos. I sometimes see things with my eye, and try to capture it with my lens, sometimes it comes out, sometimes id doesn’t, I don’t think I quite captured it in this photo, but I tried

Day 17: A Book You’ve Read That Changed Your Views On Something

I read the book by Dean Koontz called False Memory, it’s been quite a few years since I read the book. This is what the website says about the book. You can read a plot summary of it at wikipedia here. It’s a really good book, and I don’t really want to give much away, you can read the summary there and decide for yourself.

But what I do have to say about this book is there isn’t many books that make me cry, but this one did. I feel it’s because of one of the scenes, the bath tub scene. It was just so sad the way things happened, and how she came to be there, and what lead to her demise, it’s all psychological, and the fact that you can so easily be mind fucked is what really got to me, it made me mad, upset, cry, and even thought it’s all made up, in a way things like that can really happen. So I guess that’s the best way I can explain how a book changed my views on something. Here is a great review on the book, that I came across *clickity*, I just may re-read this book again, although there are so many Dean Koontz books I need to catch up on

I have a Tumblr account, as so many do, I’ve had the same theme on it for a while now, and I’m getting rather bored with it. I came across a lovely Tumblr theme, but unfortunately they won’t let you download it! So if you have more than one Tumblr you would like to use it on, you have to pay for it again, and how much does it cost? $49!! *pulls hair out*!! I’m not really pulling my hair out is that madness or what? No I’m not trying to point fingers or anything like that. But I think if you are paying that much, you should be able to use it on as many accounts as you like. It’s a bit over the top, and I guess that is why I won’t pay $49 for a one time use theme. Any theme on anything. But that is just me

I know I’m going on about something that is just insignificant right? … I don’t think so, not to me it isn’t, it has to do with a lot of things. I know that Tumblr is no big deal, and it really isn’t but that wasn’t my point, and if you didn’t get it then I’m sorry. Most of my stuff is auto posted anyway lol. I guess that was kind of a rant again. Lol. Ok I’m done.

Day 16: Someone Or Something You Definitely Could Live Without

Let me take a stab at ‘Someone’ I could definitely live without I would say a man I met some time ago, I don’t talk to him anymore, Steve. I would say he is someone I can live without, and be happy about it. I feel the man could of been a good person, but isn’t in my book. He was a minister, and believe me his behavior shows the contrary. I’m glad he is not in my life anymore, and hope whomever comes across him, sees who he really is, and knows to run the other way. I know that may be harsh, and I tried to keep things at a minimum about what he’s done. But I did want to make a point about his name, because I’m sure he probably has come to my website at times, not 100% sure about that now, but it’s a high possibility.

I never thought I could say that about a person, but anyone that does not enrich my life, I can do without. I try to forgive people, I know it’s a very difficult thing to do, but it doesn’t mean I need to have them around me to continuously remind me why I can’t forgive then lol, makes sense hey?. I think that’s the best way I can say it, without being over dramatic hehe. Ok well I guess that’s all for now, I really can’t think of what else to add, except for what I have already. I think it makes a person think though. Is there something or someone you definitely could live without? What is it? Give me one thing, that’s enough. I’m just curious Have a great day!

I often wonder what are these bullies thinking of? What is in their mind to really put someone through the BS that they put them through. Hasn’t there been enough negative media about the results of what bullying can cause, and isn’t that enough to just stop!!?? No it doesn’t seem like it is, I really don’t know what it’s going to take for them to stop. Perhaps being bullied themselves, or I’ll go even further to say, that it’s possible they had been bullied and that is why the have become the bully? Hmm yeah that could be what it is.

I don’t think I will ever get it, must be some power trip, especially if it’s done behind a computer screen, I think those are the biggest cowards of them all, hide behind a fake name, and computer screen and attack others. At least those that are being criticized have put themselves out there, they are the brave ones. I know we may have all been bullied at some point or another, by fellow students, parents even siblings, and yes it does happen. We’ve read it in the paper, seen it on the television.

I have a personal experience in regards to bulling, I’d like to share. There was a blogger I knew online, a number of years ago, when I was starting to do the blogging/website thing, this bully was cruel, made fun of me and my website, this bully was glorified by other fellow bloggers, that is the part I didn’t understand. Why people would just sit by and at times participate at the slanderous things this person would blog about me and my website. Even if I was a beginner, and they were more advance, that is no reason to belittle someone, rather than do that, they should set an example and help this person out to fix things. I was not the only one this person targeted, there were many others. I didn’t give in to the pressure or anything, I suppose it was a lot easier ignoring it, because it was online. After this person seen no reaction from me, they gave up and moved on to someone else. I suppose this person was waiting for me to say something, so they can continue with the harassment, but I told myself, if I said something in my defense, this would only fuel them, so I didn’t. Years later, I stumble on this persons blog only to read that they will be having a child added to their family, I was happy for them. But I hope that they remember what they did to others, if their child is ever bullied when it’s growing up. I would hate to see that happen to anyone, no one deserves that kind of treatment. Not even a bully or a bullies offspring.

I’m going a bit off topic here, but what I really really can live without is drama, OH EM GEE!!! I can so live without that, it’s everywhere, on TV, Online, In real life, AHHH! Please, I stay away from it, but sometimes you can’t help yourself, it’s like “If I don’t say something, if I don’t take a stand and express myself and how I feel about a certain subject” then you are deemed a drama queen, thank goodness, I say my piece and that is the end of it, as long as my message gets across I am happy *smiles* I know I touched on like 3 things there, but sometimes you just need to say it!

What about you? Is there something or someone you couldn’t live without, did you try? What is it? I’m curious

If I had to really pick a hero, it would of been my mother (God rest her soul), my mother was wonderful person, very loving and affectionate, she was the heart of the family. After she passed away, the family fell apart, things were never the same. It saddens me to think of that, but it’s true. She was everything to everyone, we idolised her so much. Gosh I really miss her *sad moment* yeah, that would be my answer there.

So really in the end, I didn’t really have a Hero that has let me down.

Moving along now. Did you happen to see Google’s logo, the adorable Valentine’s Day animation, it’s darling! I absolutely loved it. Imagine putting a smile on someone’s face, not because you give them all kinds of gifts, but just because you share in something they like. Wow who would of thought?

I joined that website Screenr, and when Google posts those cute animations, I can’t help but record them. It’s really nice to see what has happened during the year. I just started doing it, but I usually just record the animated ones. It can actually be used for all types of things, I don’t think it records very long, but enough to show say a tutorial of something. Just thought I would share.

So what am I getting William for Valentine’s Day, well I am getting him a really nice watch, he needed another one, he seems to go through them so quickly fast! I hope he likes it, the problem is, that it’s not arriving until after Valentine’s Day, but I got him another little goody to hold him over. Hopefully it comes by end of week. I know I should of done this earlier, and I should of, oh lazy me boo on me lol. For Valentine’s Day he got me my new phone, it’s an amazing electronic device, I love it to bits. I got the new Samsung Nexus, it’s just to awesome. I am so very happy to have got rid of the Blackberry, it was so ancient. I can’t believe how fast that faded out. Hope the Nexus doesn’t. But I’m a happy camper!

Anyway that’s it for me, I hope you all have a wonderful Valentine’s with someone you care about, it could be anyone, even your dog or cat or even a fish
