Do you believe in God?

Posted on Dec 6th, 2008 by Kris
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for July 28, 2007:

What I believe in is Love, and I believe that God is Love.  Because, no matter what point you are at in your life, if it's good or bad or boring, God is always there for You, and always being there for somebody no matter what = Love...  I find freedom in a faith that is totally forgiving and uncondtionally loving, a faith like I have in Him.

What little things make you happy?

This might sound cheesy :)... but I LOVE to look at the sky.  When I drive to school in the morning, I always see it- beautiful thick white clouds with a bright shining sun right in my face!  IT's truly so so GLORIOUS- and it's always there, everyday, ever-changing... it makes me very happy to be where I'm at.

What's the easiest way to become happy?

This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for November 18, 2007:

If I were to completely let down my guard, and just enjoy being wherever I'm at- good or bad, happy or sad, or whatever-  If I were to accept that I don't have control over what happens and so just enjoy how things do turn out...I think that would make me happy.

How did you meet your partner?

This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for December 22, 2008:

It's not about me- it's how my grandparents met because i think it is so ironic and sweet!  They were 15, and my Grandma's big sister was dating my Grandpa's big brother.  And soon, they met each other and were dating also.  So now, in our family, we have two sisters married to two brothers! ... They're 75 now and a huge inspiration- love lasts, it truly does.

Where would you recommend people give their time?

Children act in the way that gets them the most attention (at least that's what I've noticed).  If we influence children at a young age to show that their kindness and compassion, their sharing and caring attitudes are what get them the most genuine love, then they (i think) will grow up knowing that being good is what gets them noticed, other than violence and loud words.
    Therefore, i think people should volunteer in a children's organization- helping them grow into secure and caring and honest adults.

What book are you reading right now?

Posted on Dec 22nd, 2008 by Kris
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for March 26, 2007:

    Playing with the Grown-ups by Sophia Dahl.  I understand it so well, not just because of her writing, but because of the stage I am at in my life right now.  I am young, but I understand things, and I am curious, just like the heroine.

What's your favorite part of this season?

Posted on Dec 27th, 2008 by Kris

I love all the food!  My mom only makes gingerbread and sugar cookies, and my favorite- chocolate chip cookie dough truffles, yum!- around Christmastime.  So, it's great to anticipate all the delicious (gosh, and fattening :(  goodies, just like presents.

What lifts your spirits?

This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for December 28, 2008:

I "house monitor"(aka babysit) some elementary-age kids if their parents go out at night, and they love to play pretend!  It makes me laugh to take part in their "top secret" plans of late night trips to Madagascar to bury treasure, then England and Australia and Russia, eqiuped with nerf guns to take out those sneaky pirates!  It lifts my spirit to see their huge imaginations, and then become a character in them!

mine was snorkeling on a small reef in Jamaica... it was so amazing with all the colorful fish and crystal water and other pretty things, but it was at times scary becuase it WAS an ocean so i was a little skittish about sharks! (but there weren't any =)
