Happy Birthday To Me.

I don't want to be a birthday brat but it does bother me a little that out of all the good friends I have, no one can seem to remember. Maybe I just have too good of a memory for dates but I really do remember everyones birthday. It has been quite a crummy day. I went to court this afternoon, followed by an uneventful evening on the couch. I feel a bit lame calling people to ask them if they want to hangout on my birthday haha. Well here's to yet another lonely and forgotten birthday.

Nirvana In A Nutshell

157 Zen Reflections written by Scott Shaw.


This is very short, sweet, and to the point. The novel is made up of 157 different passages that are only a few sentences long. While you may find the writings to be on a bit "extreme" side, there is truth to everything. The novel shares what enlightenment is and is not. The passage that has stuck out to me the most so far is about other's actions. They way people act and feel is in perfect harmony with the universe. It does not mean what they do or say is condoned. It is what is supposed to be. And you do not have to like it.


Sometime we just have to accept things we may not like. We have to understand that those people are serving a different purpose. Just how you and I are serving a different purpose.

I hope this wasn't too deep and philosphical! Just trying to share the love. :)

Dear Kandee Johnson,

I have never been so positive about anything in my life. I have been so hopeful through all of Miss KJ's giveaways. Seeing the results of the others, one can assume there is a good chace I didn't win. Normally I would think thoughts like those, but kandee just has a way of making people feel like they have the best chance in the world. She makes you feel like you are more than just a number. I thank you for that kandee.

Good luck to everyone! Hope the results are up soon.

Love,
B
