Messages are everywhere. So are lessons. You can be taught amazing things by almost any situation. I don't think its our lack of available lessons thats the problem. I think the problem is when we hear the messages we don't apply them. And when we take part in these lessons, we don't TRULY learn from them.

Call Me Beautiful.
Urban dictionary's definition of HOTT:
Well it is innapropriate so I'm not going to put it.
Urban dictionary's definition of Sexy:
Well when you type it in, there is a picture of a girl with almost everything hanging out.
Urban dictionary's definition of Beautiful:
Having qualities that delight the senses, especially the sense of sight, but also inner beauty-intelligence. Excellent; wonderful. Classy.
Ok so we are flirting amd you want to compliment me? To start don't call me HOTT. Why? Because it does NOT flatter me. Hott insinuates the idea that I'm sleazy, easy, and other such things.
Don't call me hott.
You think there are things that are attractive about me. Then say that. Don't tell me I'm sexy. Do I look like a poster from victoria secret? Do I walk around in underwear? Um no. So why call me sexy?
Why can't you call me beautiful?
Why can't you call me gorgeous?
Why must you catergorize me as something so common place as a girl who doesn't wear enough clothing?
There are enough easy, promiscuous girls out there.
Not enough modest ones.
There is plenty of skin already being shown off to the rest of the world.
I'd prefer not to use mine for attention.
If you want something common your looking in the wrong place.
Because I'm unique.
I refuse to to grab your interest by using provacitive language.
I will enchant you with my intelligence.
I will shun your offers to act scandalously
And accept your offer to take me to dinner.
Expect to ACTUALLY get to know me- because I AM A PERSON.I'm not just a body.
Notice how Personality's root is Person?
If it was all about the looks then it wouldn't it be called "Bodyality"
Call me gorgeous.
Get to know who I am.
Realize the individual I am.
Recognize the important things.
Realize that in 80 years the looks will have faded. We will both be gray haired and wrinkly. The looks will wither away, but my personality won't.
Beautiful or ugly?:
Kind. Sweet. Caring. Devoted. Loyal. Compassionate. Charitable. Friendly. Outoging. Loving.
Beautiful or ugly?:
Rude. Spiteful. Dishonest. Selfish. Fake.
Has your perception on beautiful changed yet?
Well I'm beautful, so take a good look.
Well it is innapropriate so I'm not going to put it.

Attention: Low Self Esteemed Young Women
FACT: Every girl wants that perfect guy.
FACT:But we must remember that every guy wants an awesome girl.
HYPOTHESIS: Girls who don't repsect themselves won't reach their full potential of awesomeness.
COME ON GIRLS! Show yourself a lil RESPECT!!!!
This is from an actual experience with an actual girl.
So I call my boyfriend who I had not been dating long(now exboyfriend) and a girl answers the phone and tells me to bug off because she is now with my boyfriend. I hang up.
Ok WHAT?! Rewind!!!! First off, when did my boyfriend decide to delete me from his life?! And WHY did he not tell me?!?!?!
Answer: He is a cheater face. Mean, Selfish, and not to be trusted. Also Obviously LAME for not doing it himself. Can anybody say coward??
1 minute after the phone call I feel angry. Mad. Frustrated.
2 minutes after I feel sad and hurt.
3 minutes after I wonder why the heck I dated such an OBVIOUS loser.
4 minutes later I get a text from the girl, on a different number.
My reply: Um sorry my mistake.
Text from girl: No really who are you?
My reply: Well aparently now im his EX girlfriend. So you have nothing to worry about.
Text from girl: So you two were dating?
My reply: obviously.
Text from girl: For how long?
My reply: I really don't want to talk to you. I don't know you and you were really mean to me on the phone.
Text from girl: I'm sorry I'm just super uspet right now. I can't believe this.
My reply: Well I'm sorry but I think we were both being played.
Text from girl: This sucks. Sorry for being mean.
My reply: It's understandable I would do the same thing.
Text from girl: I'm like totally sad now.
My reply: Well I'm not going to have anything to do with him anymore so he's all yours.
Text from girl: Yeah I am so done with him too!
My reply: SMart girl. He is obviously NOT good enough for either of us.
Text from girl: Ok. Well Thanks for the info. Good luck to you.
I thought that was the end of it. But a few days later she is sending me texts again.
Text from girl: He keeps calling me and trying to apologize.
(Funny thing- he was calling me too! I don't know what about because I wouldn't asnwer. hmm wonder what he wanted to say. lol)
Me: Look not to be rude, but I kind a want out of this situation.
Text from girl: Well I was just wondering if you could tell me all of the mean things he may have said about me so I won't be tempted to talk to him.
Ok... This is what I am referring to. How sad is it that this girl ASKED to be HURT!!! She wanted to know things that would hurt her feelings so she would not be tempted to talk to Mr. Cheater face!!!! No! The reason this upsets me is if the girl had enough self respect she would have dropped this dude. Her repellant to him should nto have to be mean things he has said about her ON TOP of the fact that he cheated. Isn't the fact that he used, cheated, and played her enough?
Can't young women love themselves enough to do things a little differently?
First, try and be selective as to whom you date. YOU DESERVE THE BEST. YOU CAN GET THE BEST. And if you feel like you are not at this moment worthy for the best- improve upon those things that are holding you back!!!!!
Also, when you do get involved with the wrong guy, when he screws you over, toss him aside and never look back. Because as soon as you look back, It's kinda like you will see a sad, orphaned puppy.
You will feel so bad you will run back to him, and once you get close again, once you are cuddling him, he's gonna maul you!
(Not always but most of the time.) He will have turned into a whole different breed in a manner of seconds.And have the respect for yourself to leave him because you can do better. Because he didn't treat you right.
Men have it easy sometimes. They get to act tough. For most, It is part of their make up. But girls- we can be tough too! We can be strong! We can toss the losers aside and have our happily ever afters. There is hope!!!!
I have had my share of cheater-faces. I have had my share of bad boy experiences. But what I have learned is that I'm worth WAY too much to be jerked around.
On the brighter side- I don't care who you are, what you have done. IT DOESN'T matter. EVERY girl is a princess and deserves to be treated like one.
I just hope us girls can be strong when it comes to guys. I hope we can remember our INFINITE worth.
LOVE YOURSELF LADIES!
Call It Scandalous!
What the heck is Valentines day all about? What's the history behind it? well to sum it up...
"Legend has it that Valentine was a priest who served during third century Rome. There was an Emperor at that time by the name of Claudius II. Emperor Claudius II decided that single men made better soldiers than those that were married. With this thought in mind he outlawed marriage for young men in hopes of building a stronger military base. Supposedly, Valentine, decided this decree just wasn't fair and chose to marry young couples secretly. When Emperor Claudius II found out about Valentine's actions he had him put to death."
http://holidays.kaboose.com/valentines-day/history/val-history.html
Ok so it's a day devoted to forbidden love? That's what I got from it. I don't that was a very practical or even neccesary way of thinking. However it caused me to think of other old ways of thinkning that I believe the world would be better to observe again.
Let's rewind to the early 1900's.
"A typical couple in the early 1900's did a little something called "courting".
Courting wasn't something young people did merely for a good time; it was a serious family business proposition. Surprisingly, the main players in the marriage process often weren't just the bride and groom; they were the parents of the bride and groom. "
http://www.verticalthought.org/issues/vt02/historydating.htm
Whoa. Ok thats a little different. First of all I don't know a ton of teenagers today that actively discuss and involve their parents when it comes to the person he or she may be dating. And also it's funny to think if dating were looked at the same way today as it was then, that it seems 2nd graders would be discussing marriage- because aparently people in second grade these days have somewhat serious relationships. /:(
Now now, I'm not saying that everyone needs to get married right away. Really what I'm reffering to is how the boys treated the girls. Chivalry was far from dead.
A girl was asked on a date and the date was formal. She was treated like a queen (as all women should be treated.) Doors were opened for her, she was given his jacket if it got chilly, and he always went to go get her her drink.
Also, I believe most of the time back then, the boys would nto kiss until like the 5th or 6th date. And sex? Ha yeah right.
However my main point that I'm trying to get to (AND NOT TO BE HYPOCRITICAL) But I think sex back then was totally treated differently. Those who had sex before marriage were considered scandalous, wild, and unmannered. It makes me sad to think how easlily accpeted, and widespread premarital sex has become today. I'm OBVIOUSLY not one to speak considering I have had a baby, BUT now that I'm in a better place, and now that I have looked back, I wish i would not have been one to so easily accept it.
I say call premarital sex scandalous! I say don't let something that should be special between two people be an activity to cure boredom. I say stop facilitating a place for your son to bring his girlfriend to spend the night. I understand that people have their ability to choose-So elminating this issue is impossible. But just don't make it so easy.
Just sayin.

Yiddlest Boy
I love when you come over
and sit upon my lap
I love it how your eyes light up
When your happy, when you clap
I love the little sounds you make
to try and talk with me
I think it's cute when you're uspet
Cuz there's no need to be
I love your big blue Tommy eyes
and your lashes oh so dark
You look so great in pictures
Just see the ones from at the park!
I love it how you study me
with those giant sky blue eyes
I love it how you giggle
when you get a big suprise
I love it how you stare
at anything that shines
I love it how you contemplate
when just staring at the blinds!
Tommy you have helped me lots
by showing me your love!
The best yiddle boy aunti Hannah could have
You are so peaceful like a dove!

Following My Yellow Brick Road...
"Despite the familiarity of life in Kansas, Dorothy wondered what life offered beyond the bounds of her experience—she wondered what was "over the rainbow." " "Often, a person has to reach some sort of impasse in their life to spur them to begin their own spiritual journey. We must face the challenges of the spiritual journey, much like Dorothy confronted her own demons ("lions and tigers and bears, oh my!"). "  Very soon I'm leaving my warm, sunny little farm in "Kansas" to head to a dungeon of iceicles. Why? Beacuse I'm following my own yellow brick road. And rather than trying to see what's over the raindbow, I'm in search of my own. I think to have my own rainbow I would be content. So I'm traveling down my yellow brick road! I'm sure there will be Lions, And Tigers, And Bears (Oh my!) Along the way... but I'm ready for them. And what does Lion number one look like?  SNOW. Cold, BELOW Freezing, wet, white, fluffy, (Maybe slushy) SNOW. As opposed to....  My HOT, dry, dusty, cactus filled, barren desert. It will be QUITE the change for me. The weather change I will be experiencing should count as 4 lions. My Tigers... Goodbye friends....   50 Tigers. My bears.... I'm going to miss these people VERY VERY MUCH!  And..... OH MY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  It's enough to make anyone dislike wild animals. My family has been wonderful I'm going to miss sundays when everyone gathers at the house and we have dinner together and gawk at my amazing little nephew tommy. I'm going to miss my grandma and her sweet little self making me clean up after dinner. I'm going to miss Ryan and Katie and how much they adore each other. I'm going to miss Katies chocolate pie. And Ryan playing with tommy. I''m going to miss my yiddlest boy Tommy. I'm going to miss him giving me kisses and trying to play wiht my phone and the other millions of adorable things he does. I'm goign to miss my brudder and his girlfriend and how sick their love makes me. I'm going to miss my little brother, who is such a good kid. I'm going to miss picking on him, and watchign him flex to show off his muscles. I'm going to miss my daddy. I'm going to miss the accute attention he pays to whether or not chores are really done. (ok that's a lie i wont miss that.) But I will miss his goofyness. And his falcon tips. And i'll miss his example of being a hard worker. And last but not least I will miss my momma. I will miss her hugs. I will miss all her help and her good advice. Missing them will be that giant grizzly bear from the Disney movie "the fox and the hound". Scary I know. But amidst the ferocious trials I'm going to face in leaving... I will be one step closer to my rainbow. So February 26th I'm heading off. I'm gonna need a killer pair of red heels for this advetnure. SHOPPING TIME!!!! :) Wish me luck. Both Quotes taken from http://www.turnmeondeadman.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=56&Itemid=69 | <>There's no place like home...
In numbers...
<3
There is 1 single little face that makes me want to be better...
There are 2 beautiful eyes that make me want to be sweeter.,,
There are 3 other people in his eternal family...
There are 4 million times a day I think about him...
There are 5 letters in his name...
I love you my little boo :)
