We don't have long
Recently stuff in my life has gone on....fall outs, listenin to lyrics closely, making new friends, becoming closer to people, helping other people, building my relationship with God. All this has made me relise some stuff...
Sam let me borrow his SwitchFoot album (which is INCREDIBLE!!!) and there first song on there called Meant To Live says in the Chorus...
'We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside'
n it got me thinking...'what am i living MY life for'?? Me? Friends? Family? Money? Fame? God?
A couple of months ago, a was talking to a 'certain friend' (not saying who, but luv ya!xxx) about my relationship with God. I was in a real state because to be honest, i wasn't close, i had just got into like heavy music, which is good, but it was the wrong kind of bands. So i was drifting away from God. I suppose i was being fake towards people, i wasn't swearing or doin anything dodgey or anything like that, i still went to church, but thinking about it now, it was only to sing up front in the band n jam, or meet up with friends n 'chill'. Oh how i was wrong!...so wrong! This 'certain friend' gave me sum good advice as 'this certian friend' was in the same situation. I don't know if this 'certain friend' was praying for me, (they said they would!!!) but i was praying for that 'certain friend' and now were back into it. I still love heavy rock music n loads of different types, but now, i'm listenin to the right kind of music with right lyrics. Theres so much different types of christian music, so don't think its all gonna be like organs or whatever, cuz seriously, ITS NOT!!
People live there lifes for them....but all ur gonna get out of that is like 100 years of life (if that) n then what....hell....what joy!! The bible tells us that hell is gonna be worse than we can EVER think of...i don't wanna go to a place thats gonna be worse than my nightmares, or worse than my horrible most scary thoughts...do u? I know i take alot for granted and having my parents be away for a week and helping out at the holiday club has made me see how much i do take for granted. People who live there lifes for themselves hurt other people aswell as thereselves in the end. I don't wanna be known as a bitch or someone whose stuck-up. I just wanna be 'HAT'! Theres no-one else i'd rather be, God loves me and thats all that matters to me.
People worry about fashion - if its a bargain n it fits u n u have the money n u NEED it, then get it!
People worry about friends - you don't own other people, dont expect them to solve ur problems for u always, friends will be there, but YOU have to sort out the problem, YOU haver to relise.
People worry about weight - WHY??? i used to aswell, but ive become more secure. as some of u know, i can handle jokes (i have an older bro!) As u know, i have moments when i don't eat anything for days apart from like lil' snakcs and other days i completely pig out, thats me.
People worry about appearances - Some people are in wheel-chairs for LIFE, u still have working legs! People are in hospitals waiting for heart transplants and die on the waiting list, they spend there whole life waiting, and we walk around healthy comlaining about being hungary or bored...AT LEAST WE CAN DO STUFF!
People are dying all over the world - are you even bothered? Do you give money to them? Do you go and help them? Or do u spend it on the most recent piece of 'in' clothing or Cd or car, whatever?
STOP BEING OBSESSED WITH PHYSICAL THINGS! grow up! Days are gonna go by where you have arguments with friends, you'll both get over it. Days are gonna go by where u completely embarras yourself..so? as SwitchFoot say
'Gone, like yesterday is gone
Like History is gone
Just try and prove me wrong'
you can't get back 'yesterday', you can't edit it, delete it, change it, ITS GONE AND YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. Don't waste your life picking fights, being 'bored', get out and do something! live for something that means something. I am

But What if??? None of us are perfect so what if we are all going to hell anyway. shouldnt we live life however we want do what we like without the bondries of trying to do what God likes. Why cant we listen to heavy "un-religious" rock music y cant we swear and shag every fucker we meet y not?? I mean y try and be good all the time when oopsy that swear word you said in year 3 has already sent you to hell.
we can listen to 'heavy un-religious music', i enjoy it, but i was sayin that it didn't help me, it got me further away from God. Im not saying u HAVE to follow God, but ur missing out. Its what i believe and i believe its the truth, but everyone has there own opinion. Yeh, that swear word in year 3 maybe has sent u to hell, but u can change that...
Im not 'dicthing' any old friends amber, YOU made the decision for us not to be friends.
ROCK on!!!! What a post.. From the heart... Totally loved it!! Keep em coming thats totally cool Hat... Ive learnt something more about you and yeh thats encouraging... Im in the same boat in your way of thinking. Switchfoot totally rocks!! If you get a chance listen to Seven Places...
Keep it real always B XxX
How can you change that then. how do you know anything you do now will make up for what you did in the past. could a murderer. make up for what they did?
they may not be able to make up for what they did but if they turn to god and repent they they dobt have to make up murdering some one.
gr8 blog hat keep it coming!
lv nix
Yes but are you doing this too because it seems as though you are having a go at us and yelling at us to do all this but I bet you are not:*&^%!
You should think about everything you do too.
Good Bye
DAN

Thanks Tim!

Anon:I don't know, but i have faith.

Rulage.
What the?
Who the heck are you?
Have to agree though.
haha!
thanks sam!
It sounded like you were to me. I think you should put it gently next time. I don't want a blog i want friends.
Dan
i just wanna say sorry if this is harsh but amber, stop stringing hat along and making her feel lyk shit. She has intoduced u to new friends, got u involved, always listened to and bin there for u and shes a great friend!!! if u wanna go out or talk to ppl u shudnt expect hat to do it for u, in life we cant have a chip on our shoulder and think the world owes us something, we just have to make the best of th situation at hand. I know that i cud always talk to hat, even if she had never bin in th same situation or we didnt neccessarily see eye to eye she'd always be there, u shud be grateful uv got her, my friends get me thru th day and wen stuff sucks at home i know i can talk to em, if u expect too much of ur friends and push em away ul have no one to talk stuff thru with wen ur down. U may think im just being a bitch but im not i genuinely care and i also care that hat is being hurt. Hat said to me the other day that 'god wants to use me' i wasnt sure what to make of this, but i think she was refering to th fact that i help my friends, so im trying. No, im not a christian, not at this point in tym but I still wana help ppl. Please amber sort this mess out, u cant just cut ppl out ur life wen theyv made such a big impact on it. Please think about this, think about wot ur loosing, wot a good person hat is. She has shown both of us so much and hat im proud of u too thnx hun xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
also amber hat has not 'ditched' her old friends, quite the contrary she has made loads of effort with u and she makes effort to get on with us all it seems to be u with th problem.
i agree hat ur so right we are way too selfish especially in western society, its quite sickening, cool post, i really admire u hun luv ya. but one thing i dont get is why swear words matter, god is above that they are just words which man has made up to express emotions that god himself has enabled us to feel, i dont understand why god wud be particularly offended. Plus there is evil all around us, we are all evil in some way or another, why shud u stupid lil words matter?? xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Aww Becky, thank you so much! those comments were sweeeeeeet!!
God doesn't like swear-words because they use his name in vain. like 'Oh for God's sake!', thats using God's name.
Time, you can help me out on this one....Im not exactly sure about otherones, like Sht, etc.TIM HELP!
I didn't say none-christian music is bad, but when you REALLY get into it and thats all you listen to, it doesn't help. Well, it didn't help me. I got so stuck in that that was all i listened to. No Christian music what so ever. It changed my opinion about church music when i got into it. But now im back into a mixture, so it helps me now.
Thanks Tim!!!!
hat do u fancy sam? b honest coz to me it seems like u do.
She does. Don't deny it Hat.
Soooooooooo much love goin' down.
haha!
im thinkin i know who annonymous is!
sam, was the guruoffunkyslippers you? cuz if not, thats well confusing ay?!
I dont want to be seen a gossip macker but ive really started to pick up on hat and sam. Its not all the comments that have already been put down but in general everywhere. you flirt so much and it looks more than just gd mates.
thanks so much for whoever wrote that i thought it was me just stirring and being stupid but reading the other comments on other posts i now see that other people are noticing it. please let it out guys.!
