Hello world!

I’m ready for another beginning.  I don’t mean a new beginning either.  Just another beginning.  I want to start another chapter in my life.  This time I plan to orchestrate how I’d like things to go.  Instead of sitting idle and waiting on things to happen I’m gonna be the mover and shaker.  Don’t get me wrong.  God is still very much the Captain and I’m not even the co-captain because He doesn’t need a co-captain.  What I mean is that instead of sitting around and waiting on things to come together in my life I’m gonna start grabbing life by the horns and make IT happen.

I love writing so I submitted a short story to the school magazine.  It was accepted.  I’m feeling like Yeah!  I’m doing it!  I wrote an article for the school newspaper and it will published in the next edition.  This is what I mean by making things happen.  I think most of my life I’ve just let things come to me or waited until someone asked me if I wanted something.  No mas!  If I want something I will ask for it.  If I think I can do something I’m taking my shot at it.  It is ok for me to be happy.  As a matter of fact, I am pretty darn sure that God expects me to be happy.  Why would He want a sad and disgruntled witness for Him.  Who’d want to be a Christian if the life that a Christian leads looks dismal???  I’m happy and I know it so I’m gonna let the world know it by showing it!
