John Corby's Worlds Largest Garage Sale 2012


I went to John Corby's Worlds Largest Garage Sale 2012 today to hopefully sell some of my books and start the process of getting my name out there. I was able to talk to John Corby (Thanks Mom!) and be on the radio!!! I was incredibly nervous but I did my best to slow down and explain my book in away to catch people's attention. I sold six books today and I am thrilled, ecstatic, & elated...& if all those words mean the same thing then I guess you know how excited I am. Thank you to those who bought my book today. If you took one of my business card please feel welcomed to contact me. 


 
Oooo & thanks to both of my parents (Shawn & Angie) for taking me up there and coming up with the idea in the first place. I Love my biggest fans =D

Reason Why??

If you could have asked...you would have.
If your pride and torn heart would have let you...
You would have asked, "Why?"

"Why!?! When I loved you so much, would you do this to me?"
I wouldn't have told you then...
but now...??

There was this still, soft voice in my head...in my heart,
Telling me...
"No..."

And, Oh, how I prayed, how I ached, and how I burned inside
After what I did to you.
But, honestly, wasn't it easier to take then, 
Then to hear it from me now...??
(You're still holding on...but I let you go years ago)

So, My Reason Why...??

It's Simple...
                       
....but not at all Sweet.

"Nobody puts Baby in a corner!"

"No body puts Baby in a corner..." Classic line by Patrick Swayze on the movie 'Dirty Dancing' ...which I Love! And the reason Baby was sitting in the corner, those who have not seen the movie might ask...?? Baby had found something that she was passionate about, that she loved to do, that made her feel alive; that brought her out of her melancholy life of appearances, proper behavior,and expectations. Needless to say, her parents did not approve...
How many times have we given up on an idea or a dream because someone told us we couldn't do it or 'that's Stupid!' or shot you down like you were living in some childish fantasy?? How many times have we actually listened to the critics & haters in our lives?? I believe with every breath in my body if you (through Jesus Christ) stand firm and believe in yourself anything is possible. Stay determined, keep fighting for your passions, and dreams; don't let them go! Believe in yourself! Trust yourself!! Find something you Love, be it a career or a hobby, don't limit yourself and what YOU can do. No matter what happens in your life or the people in your life the only thing really holding you back is YOU! You have a brain...USE IT!! And start thinking for yourself. Don't let anyone put your dreams in a corner or sweep them under a rug. But most of all, don't let yourself. We are our own worse enemies at times.

Strong Enough...??

If I am strong enough to believe in myself, respect myself, dream for myself....
Why would I need you??
Who are you to me??

Are you Strong Enough to 
put up with me....??
Love me through every rejection,
Forgive me every time I hurt you
(& trust me, it will be on purpose),
Fight with me when I tell you to leave???

Are you Strong Enough
to challenge me,
make me laugh,
 bring me to love???

Are you still going to love me when I don't love you...
....and never will.

Something...or Someone??

Something came through my window last night....
Was it a Ghost, an Angel, an Iblis (a demon),
or was it Love...??

Something...or Someone crawled through my window last night...
Bring me peace, joy, contentment 
& a sense of freedom I haven't felt in so long...

"Who are you??" I ask "What are you??
Please! Don't leave...
Come closer...."

The Presence came closer and closer
Surrounding me, overwhelming me...

"If you don't ask, I won't tell..."

Life...

We all make mistakes, we all have regrets, we all look back over our lives at times and say, 'What was I thinking?!?' But that's LIFE!! We make mistakes, we learn from them. A regret I had today: a delivery guy came to take my grandma's refrigerator away; I opened the door for him and immediately his cheery disposition just shot through me. I'm serious! For 8am this guy had a 'Singin' in the rain' kind of attitude...Oh and he was very, very...very good looking. Haha! And now this is my regret: I was standing there in my scrubs, I had just got done working out, I was tired; I hadn't slept well the night before and I was really in no mood to talk to talk all 'Sunshine and Rainbows' with anyone while this guy was going on about how grateful he was to have a job. I agreed with him and then just went back inside. I could have totally witnessed to this guy, talked to him more...anything other then what I did. Maybe even got his #, who knows...?? Haha! But that's not the point...if you have regrets for doing something completely stupid in your life, you know what you did wrong....DON'T DO IT AGAIN!! But if you miss an opportunity, like I did, because you have all these excuses why you shouldn't take a chance then you could be cheating yourself out of an AMAZING Experience!!! Regrets, Mistakes, Stupidity, Foolishness, Spontaneity, Overwhelming Happiness, Accomplishment, an 'On Top of the World' feeling; is all part of a little thing I like to call...LIFE!!! So Enjoy it!

My first book is called 'Forbidden'.  Its a Teen based Sci-FY book. (if you like Twilight...You will like my book. But if not, try something new and expand your horizon). If you have any questions or would like to know more about my book...just ask.

Life without a reason to Live it...

Day after day we struggle with the hardships that are called LIFE. We fall down, we get back up again. We make mistakes, we make hasty decisions and then we learn from them. Life isn't a race. Don't get me wrong, we all have an ultimate goal. Heaven or Hell?? Both two VERY real places. But some people seem to race against the clock. We are TOO busy to spend time with our families. We are TOO busy to be there for the people who need us the most. We are TOO concerned with # 1 to worry about those suffering around us. But the clock is running out. Time will not be beat. You can't pay off Time and you can't win Time over with numerous good deeds. We will all come to our end one way or another but will it be a peacefully end, ready to meet your maker or an end full of regrets and fear?? That my friend's is up to YOU. No one can make the hard decisions for you....
HE already made the ultimate choice, HE already made the ultimate decision. HE choose to die...for YOU!!!

Whatz it all about??

Desperation, Passion, Life...
       Where do the broken hearted go when they have no escape from what life throws at each of us everyday?? I appreciate opinions and free thought. Nothing is too radical, nothing is too big to imagine possible.
