Gloomy Rainy Day...

I've spent the last couple of days just relaxing and thinking about what I need to do to get my life together. I am kinda in a place right now where I dont know which way to go...I can go up or I can go down. I want so much but right now dont know what to do to get it. I have to get my life together and start planning for the future. I can't continue living my life in limbo...I just want to be able to have all the things I've always wanted and I know that I can...I just have to make a plan and stick to it. So starting today, I am going to be creating a life plan. I have lots of things to include in it...I'll let you know how the plan turns out...

Poems that Touch your Soul

Count That Day Lost

If you sit down at set of sun
And count the acts that you have done,
And, counting, find
One self-denying deed, one word.
That eased the heart of him who heard,
One glance most kind
That fell like sunshine where it went --
Then you may count that day well spent.
But if, through all the livelong day,
You've cheered no heart, by yea or nay --
If, through it all
You've nothing done that you can trace
That brought the sunshine to one face--
No act most small
That helped some soul and nothing cost --
Then count that day as worse than lost.

George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans)

Makes me think...

Swallowing Darkness

So I finally have finished all the books in the fairy series I was reading. The last book, Swallowing Darkness, was a nice end to the series. I'm not real sure if she is leaving that as the end or will write more. I think that would be a nice end. She is finally pregnant with twins with 3 fathers each. She killed her cousin, Cel and turned down the role of queen so she could have her Frost back. In turn she moved back to LA where she is far away from the faerie mound.

Overall I would say the series was a good read but the last couple books I had to force myself to read just because I was tired of them. I would really recommend that she not elaborate so much. I did like the dreamy aspect of fairy land.

Changeling...



This is a FANTASTIC movie. It was released in 2008 and nominated for 3 academy awards. Producer Clint Eastwood did a phenomenal job. Angelina was great. I highly recommend this movie for anyone who loves drama. The movie was based on the 1928 disappearance of Walter Collins from his home in Los Angeles. Once you watch the movie you have to look up and read about the actual history behind it. It is very interesting. The movie is a little long but it is very interesting so you will definitely not want to miss any of it. WHATEVER you do; don't look it up before you watch it...Let it be a surprise. Now go out...get some popcorn and rent it!!!
