I...

Love You!


Today, I decided that my blog for the day deserves to be short and sweet so I decided to profess my Love to You; the World. Love is such Beauty, it must be shared & when one feels alone, Love creates a Friend.


So P.S., I Love You World! Let us continue to create many friends by giving out many loves...


After All, Love is so easy to give because it is both short & sweet, said so bluntly but felt so sweetly...


Here's to a short & sweet-i Love you Blog! ;)

Love...

Within one's lifetime Love can be experienced within the following three:

1. An individual that breaks your heart

2. One that fixes your heart

& Finally....

3. One that has your heart


Within forever one can experience this Love, indeed, infinitely:

If you haven't experienced either of the following or feel as if you never will just Remember: Jesus will always have your heart even if it's broken. He is the only one that not only fixes it permanently but he can love it forever. Jesus welcomes any heart, broken or burnt & there is no need to question Jesus' trust & fidelity because he will always stay true to it. My Lovebugs, this Valentine's Day, give Jesus your heart by making him your valentine once you have Jesus' love, you'll be a lot closer, to finding a love of your own. ;)

The Rite...

The movie has my vote & through watching the movie there were many quotes that struck me not only mentally & physically but spiritually. Here's a quote from the movie that remains unforgettable:


(Father Lucas tells Michael, or something within this vicinity)
 "Terror is real but it can be defeated when you believe"


My Analysis:


This quote continues to have me thinking: How can you fight for something when your faith is not there? How can you sing a song when you don't mean the words? You can't! It was one of my AHHH! SO TRUE moments that God wanted not only myself but us all to receive from the movie. I mean, what led me to the movie or what made me choose this movie specifically to watch? The answer: the Father, the Son & (yes) the Holy Spirit. I made it to the theater & walked back feeling even more blessed because I realized that God led me here tonite. God wanted me to watch this movie specifically, so that I can walk in a Christian & walk out not only a Christian but a Believer. My friend, we need to BELIEVE, to have FAITH in Above, in Him. Yes, Satan is real, He is the TERROR but he can be defeated...we just have to believe....
Let us keep in mind
Satan is a deceiver but God keeps his promises, & We, we can become a Believer by having faith in God's promise. 
TEAM JESUS, ALWAYS & FAR MORE THEN FOREVER! ;)

Here's a Spoon of Philosophy for the day...

"And in knowing that you know nothing, that makes you the smartest of all" Socrates


*In other words, we are all intelligent. There is no such thing as stupidity for it only exists when one is in doubt of their potential to be smart. When an individual, does not doubt but think they are not smart, they are characterized as the smartest. It is in doubt and self-hatred that an individual welcomes stupidity. This idea of stupidity begins to cloud one's doubted mind to the point in which they begin to act & think stupidly. In contrast to the doubter, the thinker & acceptor (the individual that is aware that they know nothing) is more closer to achieving intelligence then the doubter because they haven't erased the idea that they have the ability to be an intellect. It is the doubter that permanently deletes the idea of potential because the doubter DOUBTs. Socrates is saying that even believing that you are not intelligent is intelligent because you are aware of the intelligence (that you think) you lack. This is the thinker, acceptor and the  confident; the individuals that believe and are aware of their potential to be smart. You have a mind, Right? An ability to think, Right? Let me guess, you have a great instinct as to when something is either right or wrong? So why don't you think you are smart? Blame society, blame your family, blame yourself, but how about putting aside ALL the Blame and trading it in for Lessons, things in which you've learned from, so that you can fix to build. Blame & Doubt go hand in hand but Confidence and Faith in oneself, go heart to heart.  Knowledge equals intelligence & when you have a brain...you have knowledge & most of all, you belong to the exceptionally smart. So today, let us ALL embrace our inner geek by veiling ourselves away from Mr. Stupidity & patting our brains on the forehead. When in doubt, refrain from crinkling your foreheads & instead warm up your brains with a hot washcloth. Your brain deserves it, even if you think it doesn't ;) So from here on out my Steve Urkels, no more blame & please, no more DOUBT! You hold God's gift of intelligence; a brain

Our Infinite Pumping Families...

Whether they make up a whole, a half, or even as small as a 1/100th, Family make up the golden pieces of our hearts. They are the golden pieces that transform into the muscle tissue that allow our hearts to pump for a lifetime. And like a heart, family allows you to breathe, to live, and most beautifully of all, to Love. Take time out of your day to give thanks for one of God's greatest creations: Our families, our Hearts! ;)

Dreams...

"Dream delivers us to dream, and there is no end to illusion" *Emerson


Dreams: It is indeed not only one of the greatest gifts God has blessed us with but it is also the easiest things to experience. To have a dream, we simply close our vision and enter a world of perfection. This is what Emerson means by a dream delivers us to dream, it's the simple fact that we are dreaming about a dream. There is this previous stage before dreaming in which we create a dream within reality just like a young boy dreams for a video game for Christmas. We, like the young boy, are implanting the dream within our heads before we even start dreaming. The idea is then transported to our minds which then creates the dream when one sleeps. The dream delievers us to dream. This becomes a fantasy within itself, more so perfection within itself. "...there is no end to illusion..." because when we dream we create a world that is not of our current world, but a world of another kind. This dream world has no end, it is infinite, eternity, almost like our imagination has no legs but roller skates that forces it to skate to an infinite skating rink. I've always pondered on the question as to Why God Blesses us with Dreams? So I came up with this....


God Blesses us with dreams to gift us with glimpses of heaven, a perfect world, and sometimes he gives us not glimpses but warnings as to how it is in hell. I've had my many share of typical dreams from talking to a loved one to almost being killed by Michael Myers however what I've realized is you always WAKE UP! It's almost as if God gives us the dream and then the moment we are about to mistaken the fake for the real he wakes us up. God is secretly teaching us a lesson, that we are in an imperfect world and yes as humans we do fall for the dreams of our imperfect world whether it being materialistic or worldly things however God promises us a chance to live in a perfect world.  He wakes us up in hopes of us realizing and dissecting the moral of our dreams; that is, the fact that this imperfect world is temporary, it's the perfect world of His that's permanent.  He has been creating a dream for us ever since the day Jesus Christ died on the cross for us all, the dream of living in a perfect and magnifying world; with Him. We need to seek it and believe in it, whether we find this perfection within a dream or within reality, the moment we wake up. It's our number one goals as Christians in getting to heaven, it's this notion of discovering one's Faith. Dreams promises us perfection just like God promises us everlasting life. We must find our faith. Thus, in a sense God gives us dreams to help us find it. So once we have our faith, and we get to heaven, it is then God that delivers us to dream, (whether DREAM be defined as death or the implanted idea of being with our Father in heaven). The result is: HEAVEN & like a dream, within heaven, there is indeed no end to illusion. Keep dreaming within His Grace so we can all sail and dream within the seas of His pearly, perfected & dream-like shores ;)

A Look At Emerson's Self Reliance

In my American Lit Class, we were discussing the famous poet Ralph Waldo Emerson's  essay on "SELF-RELIANCE," and it teaches us as individuals that we must be self-reliant in order to be connected to the higher power. Whether your higher power be Buddha or God, Emerson argues that this notion of self-reliance will indeed get you there. For me, I am a full-out Christian and I most definitely believe in my Heavenly Father so I pondered on the thought, Do I have Self-Reliance? Do I trust myself? What's the point of doing good things if I don't trust & specifically rely on myself? My answer came from Emerson teaching us to "do your own thing," that is to be different, to be a true individual by creating your own ideas, not on the basis of others but on the basis of unique creativity, getting inspired from nature and looking to the highest. We all have self-reliance but we all too, suffer from realizing it. This is where we need to welcome TRUST, having trust in ourselves to then have faith in our Heavenly Father. In other words, I, you, we & all have potential to be originals and this true individual, we just need to realize it instead of being too dependent on society and it's stereotypes. Sometimes, most of us mold ourselves into the images society expects us to be (I too suffer from this), however knowing our self-reliance and the fact that we can be self-reliant will allow us to escape from society's conventions and social constraints. When this occurs, we become more closer to God, the highest. We become an eligible individual of the Lord's pre-elect (heavenly chosen), or more closer to God. So not only do we have to believe in God, but we must believe in ourselves...we must be self-reliant...we must recognize & have FAITH in the Lord & see it within ourselves. As my professor states "in being truth to oneself (having this self-reliance) it begins to connect to to others, by becoming independent you become Dependent." So Hence, Let's depend on firstly the Lord, and secondly ourselves so that thirdly others can depend on us. The result: a peaceful & magnifying world. GOD BLESS YOUR DAY TODAY MY TRUE Individuals! ;)

This Monday, is exceptionally BEAUTIFUL to the capitol B!

To kickoff my exceptional Monday I am having toasted eggos with Nutella spread complimented with a nice hot tea. I know, it's not really considered your go-to breakfast especially when you want to maintain a healthy diet for the new year, however for me, it's a go to i want something sweet, please just only this one time kind of breakfast. Nod your heads and be bewildered at the amount of calories I have consumed but all I hear is blah, blah and BLAH! lol No offense, I truly admire all of your concerns but we really do live only once, not twice or in thirds but ONCE. So hence, I'm gonna lavish my sweet tooth with the joy of Nutella and the crunch of eggos. I'll sip my nice hot tea even if it has endless amounts of sugars. Individuals, live in the NOW with me and if tomorrow exists let us keep doing the same or add a little difference even if it means working off the now Nutella and endless amount of eggos (like my sister always says)... in due time. It is one of the many life lessons I have just discovered throughout my quest in life: Live in the Now. So let us simply, live in the now by raising our Nutella jars and crunching away our eggos. lol That's why there is a later where we can feel guilty and do something about it but the now my world is NOW! So let us start living...in the now.....

as cliche as it sounds, it's my first blog!!!

To the Blogging World,
YAY! I am officially a blogger. I have finally thrown out all my diaries and journals and traded them in for the new techniCOLOR world of Blogging. Don't get me wrong, those many years I've spent writing in my diary, which include love poems and my many encounters of heart-throbbing high school crushes, have indeed brought me value. That is, value that has inspired me to be a writer. I am no Ralph Waldo Emerson or Charles Dickens, I am a young lady that uses writing to not only experience but learn the world. I have been in a relationship with English, all my life, and the best thing about it, is it never leaves me just the way I wouldn't leave it. Therefore, I am now a blogger and have decided, just this morning that I, Karina Lewoohoo, is now going to embark on a long and exciting adventure of blogging my life away. Whether I inspire you or not, feel free to follow, comment, or whatever you bloggers do to connect with me. I am ready for the blogging challenge even if it means risking my hands for carpal tunnel syndrome, I hope to touch you with my writing, even if it's as small as a blogging pinch. So here I am, ready, willing, and yes oh yes, ready to blog....
Yours Truly ;)
