i haven't blogged for a long time. not sure if that's cuz i've had no thoughts or just that none of them are worth blogging. i have noticed lately that it seems like the people that i associate with at church or other places are all alike in that they are not the type to just go talk to those they don't know. but since we're all like that, nobody ends up talking and then thinking the others are just snots. it would be so nice if people are not going to initiate a conversation or friendship, if they could recognize that they are not the only person struggling with being an introvert. the thought of how many more friendships could be formed if people were more in tune with others feelings instead of how it's effecting themselves. so go out and talk to someone you don't know.

i'm right here

kyra and shayla have both always loved to play hide and seek with us around the house. but at kyra's age they think they're supposed to tell us where they are while they're hiding. i realized the other night while playing that when we're not playing the game and they're hiding from us (in their mind we're playing), i tell them to answer me when i'm calling them. so how, when they're playing whether i know we are or not, can i expect them to tell me where they are sometimes and not other times? so, for now, we'll just let kyra tell us where she is.

a guest at your own funeral

do you ever wish you knew what people think of you but, what can you do...ask them? awkward. sometimes i wish i could visit my own funeral in the future and see what people had to say about me. i would hope most of it would be good and i guess your funeral wouldn't be the best place to hear the most honest opinions.
