a few weeks ago someone mentioned to me there was going to be a Relay for Life walk in town.
i didn't think much of it but then a couple of days ago i had a chance to write a name on one of the luminaries.
i chose one name. Rod Kimbler. good old Pastor Rod.
we miss you.
i caught myself saying the other day, "that is one man the Earth did not need to lose."
but i am happy to know that heaven gained that day.
then last night i was thinking of all the other people in my life who have been touched by cancer.
my grandpa
a friend at school
my uncle
my aunt
my teachers
a friends mother
my pastor
a friend of my moms
a lady from church
my own dad
...
....
there's more that i am missing. but that is just my life.
yes some may not have been serious cases but it's still a case.
and i am going to walk.
walk for all those.
this battle needs to end all together.
i don't want to type another pink name.
i don't want to have to remember another important person.
i want them all to be here with me for as long as possible.
and i'm going to walk.
will you?

they told me i would change and i denied it.
i can't decide
am i a homebody
or outgoing
i think it may be switching.
ever since i can remember i have wanted almost nothing to do with busy life,
but i have taken a sip of it and well,
it was quite refreshing.
i like going to sporting events
i love the atmosphere
i sit alone at most of the games
and people walk by and mention how bored i look.
parents sit around and laugh.
and i sit and enjoy using my christian nature to, with time, mention how i am eavesdropping and add in my two cents.
(where did two cents come from... anyone?)
truth is i am never bored .
i love it.
just being with people.
i think i had too much of my small secluded lifestyle as a youngster.
and i think i may try this busy thing a bit more.
i find it quite,
well lets say,
fun :)
