your blog prescription has been filled

i love that my profile randomly tells you that i was born during the zodiac year of the rat. what does that mean? that i like to creep around near dirt, garbage and sewers? mmm...lovely.

anyways, i would like to let this entry serve as clarification. i think people, myself included, are affected more so by negative experiences and struggles than positive. not that we aren't affected by positive things, or that they don't occur, but when they do, we feel as though they were deserved or to be expected. newsflash (kim, pay particularly close attention): we don't deserve ANYTHING. it is all by the grace of God that we have positives in our life at all. okay, so the clarification was not intended in that but, rather, the fact that i have let those dumb negative things show their not so nice face more often in my writing than the positives. my sincere apologies, dear readers, and it is now time to change that. 

i have awesome friends. i love that they love me. they are so creative and thoughtful and genuine and real and God fearing people that sometimes i'm waiting for them to discover the extent of my nerd factor and run for the mountains. the reality is i am enormously blessed and i all too often forget that. so if you are a friend of mine and are reading this through forceful coercion  by me, thank you for being you and having love for me. you are appreciated more than blog entries could ever convey.
