Must See Movie

My Sister's Keeper is a must see movie. If you like to cry like I do, you will surely enjoy this one.
It is probably based on a true story, not sure. I actually cried just looking at the preview on the computer, so I knew I was going to cry alot.

Let me know if you see it and what you think of it. I very much enjoyed it.

Another great movie that is a tear jerker would be Gracie's Choice, which is based on a true story.

Occupation-Medical Records Clerk

I think I have learned real quick that I will be remaining in my current job for quite some time.
I believe I got a wake up call my first night of the workshop I signed up for.

The teacher was some looney. It was like he wasn't really a teacher at all. He was more like a stand-up comedian wanna be. Most of the time was spent joking and it wasn't really funny. The things he talked about had to do with alcohol mostly. He could not stick to teaching us anything. I couldn't believe what he was saying considering most of the ladies were older in the class and they didn't find it funny. I thought some was funny, but I thought he took it too far and too long. We even got out 30 minutes early. I really was thinking I made a big mistake. We did take a small test at the end that didn't count for anything, but even that made me realize that I don't have what it takes to be working with kids if I have to know the material they were covering. I think I need to stay where I am until I am literally moved by God, I then will know I am not making a move I should not be making. It's too risky these days, especially with the economy. I really think I won't be the only one not going back next week. I am not just deciding to not go back because of how this guy was, I am not going back because I think God was really telling me to consider what I am doing and is it worth it. No, it's not. Roger didn't really want me to do it in the first place. He is ok with me not going back. I am glad I feel more at peace about things and not confused anymore.

Every New Day is a Gift, that's why we call it the Present.

Today is a New Day. It is not yesterday, nor is it tomorrow. It is a gift, just as everyday is. I will choose how I will spend this gift given to me. I will not fret about yesterday, or worry about tomorrow. I will accept the things I can not change and trust God to help me change the things I can. God's mercies are new every day. I will choose to show mercy to those who do not deserve it, just as I do not deserve it. I will see my troubles as opportunities for growth and as a chance to get to know God's thoughts, instead of set backs and becoming discouraged. I will live as though this day might be my last, because it just might be. I will live with no regrets, and strive to keep God smiling down on me. My faith, hope, peace and love come from Jesus alone, nobody or nothing on this earth can give these things to me. I am complete in Him. I am not ashamed, I am no longer condemned. I might be criticized, and judged by others and persecuted, but I am will not be moved. I am not perfect, and never will be on this earth. But I can strive for perfection, because after all, I want to be like my Father. No, not like my earthly father. I already have some of his qualities. But my heavenly Father has the eternal, everlasting qualities I am searching for. His Love lasts forever and will never fail me, nor forsake me. I would never want to live on this earth without Him in me and in my life.
