Well for me as might some of you dont know is a very important part of my life, she is there when i need it i dont need to explain why i need it or when she is always there. I can put my earphone in my ear choose a song and it helps me through a situation that im going through or need to get through.

Sometimes i listen to a few songs when i write a blog or when i search for some answears and dont know how to find them, for me the music has something special something magical.

It makes it within seconds even better as it already is.

Im glad that i have sometimes the chance to go on concerts and see bands playing and piut my mind on mute and just listen to the songs there were playing, it feels like  that im home there were i love to be and there were i should be.For me its not even important to meet people who play this music for me its important to see people there who i know and share this magical moment with them.

In my friendzone theres a lot of peoplewho share the same love as i do to the music we all have a kind relationship with the music, she is for all of us always there and dont bring us down she can help us in so many ways and music can bring people together and closer to each other, help to meet new people and share things.

Outstanding people dont might understand people like me, i listen more than 5 hours a day to music and couldnt probertly survive without them, she is and always will be a very important part in my life and in my heart, do you feel the same ?

I Love the meet new people who share the same love to the music i think people dont need to share the same love for bands when you  both love the music i think then its already enough might you gonna love the others bands to but you dont need to cause we are all diffrent and this is something good.

When you lay down at night in your bed or in the grass close your eyes and push play on your Favorit song what do you feel ?

I feel free at this time, all problems are gone at this time ..

What is music for you? What does she mean you ? Could you survive without her ?

First thing is to deal with your immediate reaction which will most likely be sadness, anger, anxiety or some other similar emotion.  Often times since these feelings are classified as negative, so we become unhappy that we have to feel something uncomfortable.  However, this only makes us feel worse because now we are unhappy that we are unhappy and it becomes a cycle of getting more and more upset.  So the best option is to just accept it.  You are allowed to not feel happy that something bad just happened, the trick is to just accept it and use it as motivation.  The time these emotions become a bad thing is when you are so overwhelmed by them, they actually prevent you from accomplishing something.

Second, now that you have accepted whatever it is, as I mentioned briefly you want to start turning it around into a good thing.  There are many ways to do this and it is hard to list all of them being that there are so many possible situations, but I’ll give a few examples that might help you find your own.  If the bad thing doesn’t actively prevent you from doing what you wanted to, you could use it as a motivation to do better.  You just lost the a chunk of the time you were going to use to work on a project?  Well use that to motivate you to work harder in the time you do have.  Another tactic is to think long term and see what you can gain from something negative.  This works better for something major, for example if you get really sick, you could use it to motivate you to be healthier in your lifestyles.  So in a way, even though getting sick was terrible for you, in the long run it was a good thing because it made you better than you were before.  Or if you get fired from your job, use that as an opportunity to better yourself with your new found time.  That will be a double positive because by bettering yourself it will make it easier to find a new (hopefully better) job, and you’ll feel great that you are being so productive.  People say that tough times build character, which is true but I want to add something to that.  Take yourself out of the moment and make sure the character it is building is someone you want to be around.  We learn from tough situations but try to make sure the message is positive.  Take yourself out of the moment and I bet you can find some good in anything.

Another really important tip is to remember that probability I mentioned at the beginning.  When you feel down about something it often feels like everything is going wrong for you, while everyone around you is moving forward.  But according to those numbers, and a little rational thinking, that isn’t true.  Even the most successful, happy person, has huge setbacks that keep them up at night.  No one is immune to these tragedies in their life.  It is so easy to say that if you were successful you wouldn’t be so sad.  But I am willing to bet that if you met that level of success, there would still be stuff to make you unhappy.  You can always want better for yourself, but why can’t you be happy during the process?  There is always going to be something you have to work through, but rather than letting that discourage you and put off your happiness, just accept where you are and know that in future you will be someplace even better.

Everything is a matter of perspective.  If there is a food it might be terrible in your opinion but another person might love it.  The same can be said for situations.  You might see something that occurred as terrible, but if you really step back and make the best of it, you might see it as something that is moving you forward even if it pulled you back initially.  Just because something is unplanned, doesn’t mean you have to see it as a negative.  Also, just as easily as bad things can happen unexpectedly, good things can too, they just often aren’t as jarring so we don’t notice them.  But if you really think about it there are always good things happening to you as well.

Lastly, by those numbers remember that you aren’t alone.  Sometimes, just understanding that you aren’t the only one going through something makes it a little easier.  If you know it can be conquered, it can give you more hope.  Because lets face it, if you were really the only one who was unhappy, why would I have even known to write this post.  Often times people want to be perceived as well put together so in public they don’t show it, but I bet on the inside they have the same feelings as you.  Also, share your concerns with someone else, because anyone on earth can relate to unhappiness.  Even if the person doesn’t give you any fixes, sometimes knowing that someone else understands is enough to take some of the weight off of you.

You aren’t alone and there are ways to make the situation better.  But once you accept the situation, make it work for you, and work on it with others make sure you remember that process.  Because chances are you want to be seen as well put together also and some other person will be looking at you with envy.  So don’t forget where you came from and let others know they aren’t alone.  Let them know that you have bad days too.  That is why I wrote this post, because there is always someone who knows what you are going through.  So if you are upset and reading this, try to make the best of the situation.  If you are happy and reading this, try to help someone who might not be.  If we all do this, slowly the world will become that much better and those negative events might happen that much less frequently.  Plus, who doesn’t like feeling happy and helping others?

a cackling cough and a cloud of smoke
exhaust poofs and plumes into the air
trapped in the heat, the starter broke
from lack of fuel or lack of care

the lawn keeps growing, sprouting up and up
slowly creeping, covering the concrete
from east to west, the blades push up and up
surely expanding, like the summer’s heat

now growling again the motor sickly kicks
huffing and wheezing with all its strength
this lawnmower is in need of a fix
or maybe retirement, it’s served its length

but the neighbors insist the green must be groomed
and a well-kept yard says something about you
so for the time being, it’s his job to be assumed
to make the trim, to cut the crew

yet through the hissing, struggling rumble
the cutter moves on, thinning the grass
travels from north to south without stumble
and collects in its stomach the warm fresh mass

and so in all our days we cut on and on
to the places where our bodies rest
across the green, across the lawn
with no where to go but looking our best

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain pg.7-8: “Now, we’ll start this band of robbers and call it Tom Sawyer’s Gang. Everybody that wants to join has got to take an oath, and write his name in blood.” Everybody was willing. So Tom got out a sheet of paper that he had wrote the oath on, and read it. It swore every boy to stick to the band, and never tell any of the secrets; and if anybody done anything to any boy in the band, whichever boy was ordered to kill that person and his family must do it…and he mustn’t eat and he mustn’t sleep till he had killed them and hacked a cross in their breasts, which was the sign of the band…And if anybody that belonged to the band told the secrets, he must have his throat cut, and then have his carcass burnt up and the ashes scattered all around, and his name blotted off of the list with blood and never mentioned again by the gang, but have a curse put on it and be forgot forever…Everybody said it was a real beautiful oath, and asked Tom if he got it out of his own head. He said, some of it, but the rest was out of pirate-books and robber-books, and every gang that was high-toned had it. Then they all stuck a pin in their fingers to get blood to sign with, and I made my mark on the paper.

Tonight as we continue in the book of Genesis with 21:22-34, we will explore a story of an oath, and yet another promise fulfilled by our faithful and true, everlasting God.

To recap: Isaac is born (fulfilling a 25 year promise to the elderly couple of Abraham and Sarah), then Hagar and Ishmael are sent away. And tonight we pick it up with another encounter with Abimelech, King of Gerar—Abimelech was the second victim of Abraham’s pretend-my-wife-is-my-sister scheme, but here we have a covenant-making story, a story of promise—a story of an oath. Nowadays we don’t really use the word “oath” too often—and when we do we use it interchangeably with promise, but an oath is a step further than a promise. An oath is a promise that calls upon God as a witness.

We often see oaths at weddings—in the ceremony of vows—vows to one another, vows before God—to have and to hold, for richer or poorer, for better or worse…till I end up in a hearse.

Genesis 21:22-24—At that time Abimelech, with Phicol the commander of his army, said to Abraham, ‘God is with you in all that you do; ²³now therefore swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me or with my offspring or with my posterity (future generations), but as I have dealt loyally with you, you will deal with me and with the land where you have resided as an alien.’ ²⁴And Abraham said, ‘I swear it.’

What do we learn initially?—Abimelech, a pagan king recognizes God, and that God is with Abraham—and says to Abraham, “don’t deal falsely with me, my offspring or my future generations, but show loyalty to me, as I have shown you.” The gloss or translation for loyal is from the Hebrew word חסד checed—steadfast love.  And what does Abraham say?—I swear it. Good readers of the NT: Mt. 5

Unfortunately, we will see this union of loyalty, of checed between the ancestors of the Israelites and Canaanites established here, deteriorate over the course of the OT.

So the relationship of checed has just been established when Abraham starts to complains to Abimelech.

vv.25-26—When Abraham complained to Abimelech about a well of water that Abimelech’s servants had seized, ²⁶Abimelech said, ‘I do not know who has done this; you did not tell me, and I have not heard of it until today.’

Aw man! They’re already getting into it! Abraham complains that Abimelech’s servants had seized a well—an important resource in this day and age.  Abimelech responds, I’m sorry, I didn’t know of this issue until just now. This could have been a potentially splitting incident, but the exchange ends with a nonaggression pact.

In 1939, Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union joined in an agreement called the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact—it was a treaty of nonaggression between the two major world powers—they wouldn’t attack one another and they would both share the land of Poland. Well two years later, in 1941 Hitler called for Operation Barbarossa—the invasion of Russia. Nazi Germany would no longer keep this nonaggression pact with such “untermenschen” “sub-humans.” Within six months, the Soviet military had suffered 4.3 million casualties and the Nazis had captured three million Soviet prisoners.

The split between Abimelech and Abraham here could have ended in devastation—over a simple well, but instead of taking up arms…

vv.27-30—Abraham took sheep and oxen and gave them to Abimelech, and the two men made a covenant. ²⁸Abraham set apart seven ewe lambs of the flock. ²⁹And Abimelech said to Abraham, ‘What is the meaning of these seven ewe lambs that you have set apart?’ ³⁰He said, ‘These seven ewe lambs you shall accept from my hand, in order that you may be a witness for me that I dug this well.’

So instead of taking up arms, Abraham gives sheep and oxen to Abimelech and then he sets apart seven female lambs and gives them to Abimelech. But when he does, he says to him—well, you’re going to accept these as a witness that well, I dug this well—well did Abraham dig this well?—Well no! In essence, what’s happening is Abimelech is conceding land to Abraham.

If you’re confused with what’s going on this example might help you: Say I was renting a single bedroom from Jeff and Liz, and then one day I decided I should put my surfboards in his garage, and then I put my fishing poles in his garage, and then I build a cat tower in his garage for my cat Rufio, and then I put my bookshelves in his garage, and then I start parking my car in his garage.  And after all this I’ll go to him and say here’s some movie tickets, I’m going to take your garage. It’s a good way to get yourself evicted, but Abraham’s case, his shrewd move allows him to acquire land and put an end to the conflict. He brings up an issue and offers a solution.

vv.31-32—Therefore that place was called Beer-sheba; because there both of them swore an oath. ³²When they had made a covenant at Beer-sheba, Abimelech, with Phicol the commander of his army, left and returned to the land of the Philistines.

The place was called בְּאֵר Beersheba—the ancient place where beer was first invented.  No, beer is a noun for a well or pit and sheba is seven: “Well of seven.” This place, Beersheba receives its name based on this sworn oath and the gift/acceptance of the seven lambs. In this way, the story provides grounding for both meanings—well of seven or well of the oath (NRSV)—of the name Beersheba.

vv.33-34—Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beer-sheba, and called there on the name of the Lord, the Everlasting God. ³⁴And Abraham resided as an alien for many days in the land of the Philistines.

Abraham plants a tree at Beersheba as a permanent sign of the treaty and worships God. There is a beautiful connection between the tamarisk tree Abraham plants and the description used for God here in this passage.

The Tamarisk tree is an extremely slow-growing tree and has to be cared for in order to do well. Very few grow in wilderness settings; they are usually around communities.

Tamarisk trees can reach a height of 50 feet. Often tree trunks are 16 inches thick. Roots penetrate as deep as 165 feet underground in search of water. The tamarisk has small scale like leaves and small branches, which give the tree a pine-like appearance.

During the heat of the day the tamarisk secretes salt, a process very wasteful of water. The salt dries. During the night the salt absorbs water from the air. In the morning the water evaporates creating a sort of natural air-conditioning. Shade + Air conditioning + beauty—in the winter beautiful pink flowers bloom.

The significance about the Tamarisk tree is that you don’t plant a Tamarisk for yourself, you plant it for the generations to come. So why did Abraham plant the Tamarisk?  To say that this is “for generations to come, my family is going to be here”. “This shade is for the generations to come, I’ll never get to use it.”

It’s a memorial to the covenant between Abraham and Abimelech, and also it is recognition that there has been a fulfillment of acquiring the first of many lands (remember that was one of the promises God gave him). But most importantly, I believe that Abraham planted the Tamarisk tree as a memorial to his commitment to el olam.

The description used for God עוֹלָם אֵ֥ל el olam “God the everlasting” or the Everlasting God—this description expresses a confidence in God’s ability to tend to his people long after Abraham is gone.

Alright, so a year ago, I was scrambling for ANY college that would take me, because  REALLY messed up in terms of getting my stuff straight to go to a good one. Now I would normally beat myself up over this, but now is the time to be strong because I know I will find myself on the streets if I don’t keep my emotions and thoughts intact until I reach my destination. Getting back to the whole year ago thing, I really thought I would do alright…but I was wrong. You see, you should NEVER let working with rocket scientists and engineers cloud your mind with fantasies of bright skies and vibrant pastures before you even get off the ground. I was BIG into fantasizing about life, mainly due to my ADHD and my unstimulating life. And I grew so accustomed to it that the act of fantasizing become synonymous to doing, which is REALLY scary when push comes to shove and don’t even know what’s real.

Fall 2012: I’ve graduated. I’m enrolled in a community college. All is great, right? WRONG! I had NO idea what I was doing and where I was going with this college thing (and life in general) except for the fact that I was really interested in the Art elective (which is the only class that I kept my reading material for). Fast forward to 2013, I’m happy (that we all didn’t die) but yet still empty and hungry for something. That something that would be my next ‘thing’. My baby. My craft. In my search, I ended up over-evaluating and ultimately thinning myself out on top of fighting negative thoughts about myself. And then that all sort of transitions into this present moment. Here, feeling scared because of the fact that I could become homeless. Just earlier today I felt pretty good, but now this? How could this be? Actually, in a way, I do believe this is the universe pushing me, telling me to ‘GO!’. In fact, several things have been pointing in the ‘GO!’ direction. The TED Talks I’ve listened to. The fact that I’ve been a bit more active lately. Even the quote a friend showed me from Alice in Wonderland (“If you don’t know where you’re going, any road will get you there.”). So instead of looking at the negative (which I have been doing for about an hour now), I should look at the positive, and see that it is MY TIME to set a spark and see to it that things get to cracking.

Old Man Markley Live at House Of Blues Houston – February/28/2013.

“No matter how far you have gone on a wrong road, turn back.”

This is a Turkish Quote, I don’t know who made it, but I thought it was beautiful. 

Jesus said to his disciples:
“Now I am going to the one who sent me.
Not one of you has asked, ‘Where are you going?’
Yet you are sad at heart because I have told you this.
Still, I must tell you the truth:
it is for your own good that I am going
because unless I go,
the Advocate will not come to you;
but if I do go,
I will send him to you.
And when he comes,
he will show the world how wrong it was,
about sin,
and about who was in the right,
and about judgement
about sin:
proved by their refusal to believe in me;
about who was in the right:
proved by my going to the Father
and your seeing me no more;
about judgement:
proved by the prince of this world being already condemned.”

V. The Gospel of the Lord.
R. Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

Castle with a chocolate festival in the foreground. NOT terrible

getting closer…

heading inside for the tour. I will never tire of castles.

Then  there’s a lake (unfortunately we only got to see the lake from a distance, because of time constraints, but I am psyched to return to the lake in the nearish future to enjoy its wonderousness up close).

pretty

looking at the pretty lake FROM the castle. Life is terrible

can you stand the horribleness?

And in this most charming of piazzas was a bitty little restaurant, which might have served the greatest lunch of all time. Smoked duck and goose, followed by a chocolate cinghiale pasta anyone?

charming-est piazza of all time

This is the place the children get to be the victims because control (specifically for the spouse who was simply left) becomes the important issue over these circumstances. When this happens so often does parent alienation syndrome. There is nothing more debilitating emotionally an essay our spouse manipulates the youngsters against the other. The loss of one’s children to manipulation is maddening and intensely difficult to recover from for the reason that children are not tall enough or mature enough to really see what’s happening. When these circumstances occur, which sadly is a lot more often absolutely nothing, it may feel impossible to keep any balance inside our lives or perhaps the lives with the children because there is so much manipulation being inflicted upon them that they can cannot see.

When this type of situation is occurring there is only 1 recourse. We have to remain focused on the love we are able to give our little ones when we’ve our time with these. We have to focus on one goal on our individual lives to make them so strong that people have fulfillment individually which can make us a happier more emotionally available parent. When we have control inside our own world’s it gives the kids the space to feel their own emotions and undergo their own experience from the manipulation. In scaling back and emphasizing our own lives this will not merely start to bring stability back in our world but it will also begin to slowly bring stability into the world from the children when they are on our custodial time.

If an amicable relationship is not had no matter your efforts together with your ex-spouse then discover ways to treat the face as an enterprise. This relationship ought to be minimized to talking only about your children and their needs. This just isn’t an easy thing to get down especially when you might be aware the youngsters are being manipulated. We must keep in mind that there is absolutely no way to regulate our ex’s or what they covertly do to the children emotionally. The only thing that may heal that wound is going to be time. See, the reality is like the cream in coffee it will eventually raise to the surface.

The steps to take to make this relationship a business are the following:

First: Only communicate the necessary information for your ex regarding the children.

Second: Get wages garnished to get rid of money games.

Third: Communicate only through writing so you have a distinctive line of documentation if necessary to review along with your legal team.

Fourth: If your boyfriend or girlfriend responds for your communication with attack, re-read what you sent and see if you communicated all the necessary information and if so, don’t respond to the attack.

Fifth: Become mindful of covert tactics and manipulations by he or she. Educate yourself so you can see them to help you avoid getting sucked in.

Sixth: Respect the custodial schedule. Minimize asking favors from the ex like switching weekends as this may be held against you later on.

Seventh: When your kids are with our ex limit your contact with these to on one occasion daily. Respect their time with their other parent.

Eighth: If your young ones have athletic practices on him or her’s custodial times tend not to attend them. Attend practices on your own time and attend all games.

Ninth: Be cordial but say almost no when in person along with your ex.

Tenth: Let you ex head to be free to be whomever he/she is going to be because there isn’t any way to regulate this.

Remember that the youngsters love you both and deserve that you can both love them in lieu of barter and fight over them. If one partner stops the fighting another will soon have nothing left to fight with and things will calm down. Never defend yourself for your ex and allow them isolate you in conversations. You are divorced.

Quick tip: In conversations state the reality and keep the emotions from the jawhorse.

Quick tip: Refrain from telling your ex how to parent. Let the youngsters experience he or she in the truth of who they may be. Manipulation can be hard for the children to see so you should be patient’time will heal this.

Quick tip: Focus on the own individual life and grow it with love, laughter and success. It is the right to move ahead and be happy.

Quick tip: Stay out of manipulating offers of friendship by your boyfriend or girlfriend when friendship implies that you do whatever your boyfriend or girlfriend wants in order that they won’t manipulate your young ones. This is extortion not friendship.

These steps will clean up the ability struggle which frequently occurs when people divorce. There is a lot of grief adjusting and loss when our nuclear family falls apart and many of us get caught up in succeeding as more focused on our ex’s in fear or perhaps hate than we were ever devoted to them in love and also this makes the divorce even harder than the wedding.

We are only able to be dedicated to fearing or hating someone until we decide it really is not really worth the energy and time. If we’ve divorced we should instead remember why we made this decision. The decision was made inside thoughts of getting our lives back to happy and now we did it for the health of our youngsters. Stay with this mindset. We made this decision to create our lives more peaceful and more open for love. No matter who our ex is or how difficult these are to deal with it is up to us just how much of this we’ll tolerate or otherwise not.

It is a vital to learn to allow go in our needs to feel some control. When we’re feeling these emotions we should instead scale back and concentrate on ourselves and obtain out from the negativity commitment. We have to ask ourselves what our life could resemble if we weren’t spending much time battling our ex? What do we must surrender to, permit go of with this ex as well as their games to have to that peaceful life? Is this something we can easily allow ourselves permit go of? When someone is manipulating our kids it is most likely the hardest thing to let go of. There is no greater pain then watching our kids being manipulated. We often feel powerless and heart broken. The only cure for this can be time.

In time children always come to find out the challenge.

After a divorce it can be our time to focus on loving ourselves. Giving ourselves the love we had been in drought of in wedding. We ought to find the places, out in the marriage, where we could see freedom. We must be creative and get into new adventures. When we’ve our kids we need to generate the world about them with love and discipline, and if they’re with our ex we need to let them be with your ex. When we now have our alone time we need to consider advantage with this time to give attention to ourselves by setting some goals and using the steps to offer the happiness we made a decision to find in making a choice to divorce.

It is often a new time in your lives as well as a time for individuals to celebrate and find love again. It is just not a time for people waste a myriad of energy in wanting to either control our ex or spending too much effort defending ourselves to ex. If this this happening then were not free yet.

If the manipulation by our ex has given us the feeling that people have lost our little ones we must find people who we are able to love and trust to express our grief with. Find a good therapist and legal team. Be assured that with time children always see the truth. Boundaries together with your ex provides life- saving rules to follow along with. Boundaries plus a fixed custody agreement leave for little negotiation or potential arguments.

Quick Tip: Focus for the best interest of your children and focus for the best interest people. If your sons or daughters ask you questions respond honestly. It is within no one’s welfare to stay devoted to negativity. Let go. Let go in the need to control, let go with the need to defend and let go in the need to address. Start to produce a list of every one of the things you choose do and achieve as a single person and make steps every day to reclaim your identity plus your life.

When you stop allowing your ex to engage you in drama, you ultimately sever the last bit of commitment involving the two person. It is really a real lesson in humility to do this but it’s the one thing that will set you free. At the end from the day we need to let each soul walk its path. The only path you need to focus on is the path.

Whether you like you ex as a person or not you will always have to respect that to your children which is their other parent. Not always a straightforward pill to swallow but those would be the facts. When your kids see that you accept this it requires pressure off of them to not need to take sides or to feel as if these are somehow flawed and defective when they still love their other parent. Guilt is one from the most covertly manipulative tools applied to children.

We all have lessons to learn from the relationships we have, and what we must trust for our children is that they can were supposed to have the exact parents which they do if not things can be different. There will likely be many learning opportunities provided for the children via your ex they could not get from any other person good or bad. They are designed to have these lessons so try and back off and trust that. If they arrive at you in pain be there to be aware of and comfort them and this may build deep bonds between you and your young ones based in understanding by experience.

For now, give attention to renewal and rebirth. Separate all of your emotions from he or she and let them go to be whoever it really is they are. If they choose to keep connected for you through their unique hate (whether overtly or covertly) then so whether it is. That is their waste of life and energy and one does not have to engage. Focus on you. Add love for your life. Eat right, laugh, go out with friends, love your brand-new romantic interest in case you have one, exercise, get enough rest and love your kids. That is exactly what life is about.

Little Life Message: When we take good care of ourselves and our emotions we teach and model our children to the same.
