Friends

I always wonder which friends are my real friends. Well after all these years I've realized that they are all my REAL friends but, some are true friends, some are new friends, some are friends from the past and some are are just people I call friends. My true friends are those who stick with me thru good and bad, these can include my new friends. New friends are those friends who have helped you out through a new drama in your life, they sometimes become true friends. Friends from the past are those who come in and out of your life, sometimes true and sometimes feels like new, they know who you are and where you come from they love you still in spite of all they TRUTH they know about you. Those you call friends well they could fall into any of the above categories at any time.
You see friends are those people that we need at different times in our lives, sometimes we need someone who knows all are past sins and triumphs and sometimes we need someone who doesn't know and won't let all of that get in the way of what we need at the moment. So you see I can call you friend today and tommorrow and it will still remain true ten or even twenty years from now.
Will you be a true friend, a new friend, a friend from the past or just someone I call friend?
The day goes on and I must leave.

Purpose

I begin this blog on the feast day of St Faustina and pray that God's mercy will continue to uphold me and lead. I pray that the words that come will be encouraging and helpful or at best entertaining. I hope that they will make people think or laugh or cry pretty much anything just something.
Life is too short to believe that my moment means nothing. I once had someone tell me that everyone has a purpose on this earth, some people have 100 years to fulfill it, others must fulfill their purpose in just a few breaths of life, some don't even get to breath the air, only what time was given in their mother's womb.
I have always believed in living as though I have a purpose, even if that purpose is only to bring a smile to someone's face for a few brief moments.
