I am extremely sorry for those of you who are awaiting my continuance with my Journey Through The Bible. Right now, with the way my life is going, and the way I feel it would be both extremely unfair to God, and myself to try. I do fully plan on continuing my Journey in good time.
Love -
I can honestly say that I no longer believe in true love. I think love happens, and can happen with anyone. I honestly think that when you decide to love someone, you will. I do not believe it is destined, nor do I believe in soul mates. I think you find someone, and it happens.
I have not always felt this way. I have always felt as though "true love" and "soul mates" do exist until very recently. I also believed that Love would last forever. I have learned very quickly now that Love is not forever. Love is temporary. Always temporary.
Peace -
I think peace is the most important thing in life. If you are at peace, its possible to love, and be happy. If you are at peace, it is possible to be sad and be angry. Peace is even needed in most cases of mourning and hate. I can say that right now, I have peace in nothing. I feel as though I have tried forever to achieve "peace" in my life, and I think I carried it for a long time. But its gone. And I don't see it coming back any time soon.
Flowers -
Flowers are simple yet complex. Flowers are sometimes seen as a symbol of peace and love. They are often used in decoration. Sometimes they are used as antidotes and other medical reasons in different countries.
Sometimes flowers are deadly. In places like Eastern Europe, Western Asia, and North Africa flowers such as : Aconitum, Atropa Belladonna, Conium, Nerium Oleander, Datura, Digitalis, Opium, Brugmansia, Pokeweed, and the Lily of the Valley, are known as some of the most deadly substances known to man.
Freedom -
I do feel like I'm free. My freedom is something that I take great pride in now that I am older. I feel as though the people of the world have become so enthralled with their own conspiracy theories that they wont allow themselves to live freely. Its not the government messing with our freedom, near as much as it is our own personal conspiracy theories.
Happiness -
I think that everyone in life deserves to be happy. I have learned that counting in others to help you achieve happiness is a waste of time. I have come to learn that I would rather be alone and unhappy then with someone and happy. When I feel happiness. I want to be brought on all by myself.

Hello Kale,
ReplyDeleteI don't know how I stumbled upon you on FB, but somewhere clicked & got here. So you are 22yrs, I am 47yrs w/ son almost 26 & daughter 24 yr. I feel most connected to my title of Mom, however I am now a Grandmom, and recently a Widow. These relationships are given in testament to something I KNOW to be TRUE and you WILL find it throughout the bible as you continue reading (Corinthians): LOVE ENDURES FOREVER! Love is def. NOT temporary! Lust, yes, LOVE, No!
I thought you brought up an interesting perspective about loving whomever you decide to love, rather than there being a specific person out there somewhere meant just for you. Who knows? My son is looking for true love & is beginning to give up on it. Many of his friends are married w/ children now. As for soulmates, ha! My truest love used to say we were soulmates & I would give him a hard time. I thought that was an old, lame term from the 70s, but now I believe he may have been right. When he died suddenly/ unexpectedly(from a work "accident" last yr) I felt like a Siamese twin whose other half had died. Honestly. He was/is a part of me. I can tell you that, thank God, you cannot imagine how difficult/painful it is to continue living when half of you is gone. It sucks. But I don't want to end there because, through faith, I know God is in control and it is not for me to understand or question. The reasons for why this happened are beyond me. All God asks is that I trust in Him and I do. I have been blessed exceedling/ abundantly over this past year. I can see the good works that have come from this. Of course, I would rather have him back than anything in this world, but I am beginning, yes- just beginning, to realize that won't happen in this life time.
Peace- peace is the BEST thing a person could hope for. I have alot to say on this subject but I have gone on too long, so I will just wish you Peace, the kind that surpasses all understanding, that is of God, not of man.. I wish you well~
