So i rode in an airplane to Houston then to Vancouver, Canada. We got on the ship, it was huge!!! it had 9 floors and it was beautiful. The scenery is beautiful, it is so calming, i loved the mountains and the ocean, i saw humpback whales, orcas, seal, sea otter, it was amazing. all of the beauty of it, i had a deck attached to my room it was awesome waking up in the morning being able to walk on the deck in my robe and be in awe surrounded by the ocean, mountains, and the beauty of the world, while i was there i understood the beauty of the world, if you don't tear down the trees and you only use the wood you need there were no highways everyone got around by either plane or boat. There are a few highways but it is nothing like in Texas, I understood the beauty of the lord, it felt as if i were just surrounded by him and as if he were trying to point it out that yes angela i made all this for you, for your family, friends, for everyone because i love you. i was just amazing. we went to juneau, skagway, and ketchikan. the towns were beautiful. I got tons of free jewelry because i attended a jewelry seminar. The beauty of alaska is amazing. wow. The ship was awesome and the service and food was to die for. although once i flew back into Houston the first thing i wanted was popeye's chicken lol. the elegant food gets a little old. lol. I met some friends one from Germany, 2 from Vancouver, and a few others that don't really stick in my mind. lol. any ways i loved it.

Surrounded by walls smothered in robin’s egg blue, I cannot help but wonder at the profound inanity and prideful disposition of man. We destroy nature, steal it’s salt, and rub it in the gaping wounds we have created. If you disagree, imagine watching, helpless, as the man whom had just demolished your home and murdered your family began erecting a house of his own in its wake and covered the guts of this blasphemous building in paints named after your children.

ROCKY MOUNTAIN NATIONAl PARK---A few years back I saw my first bear in a forest near here. It was the first I had seen in 12 years of coming here, the past two days I have spotted a bear, within ten feet if me. I have named him Buford. This has been a bad year for bears, they come down to eat human trash. Buford toppled my trash receptacle, it had been secured. That was today, yesterday he tried to get into my vehicle.

ROCKY MOUNTAIN NATIONAl PARK---A few years back I saw my first bear in a forest near here. It was the first I had seen in 12 years of coming here, the past two days I have spotted a bear, within ten feet if me. I have named him Buford.
This has been a bad year for bears, they come down to eat human trash. Buford toppled my trash receptacle, it had been secured. That was today, yesterday he tried to get into my vehicle. He tried to pry open the back door, no luck for Buford.
I rode up to the meadows yesterday, where there is a lovely stream for your horse to splash through. I don't get enough opportunities to ride, my grandfather loved to ride horses. He was very proud to put me on my first pony. There are not many things that I find more natural than riding a horse.
We rode up to the highest part of the park along Trail Ridge Road. The view is wondrous, you are above the clouds and timberline. the weather can change in a minute. The ride back down is quicker, a nice break for the horsepower.
Tommorow is another ride, this one to Bear Lake. I remember Bear Lake as the first place I ever saw in the park. It was October, cold and snowy. The lake is a vision, a hike around it is a nice break for your companions before heading back down.
That of course leads me down to another meeting with Buford. We're acquaintances now,Buford. I hope you find a diner up in the mountains, it's best for you. I would dine with you, but you're not a strict vegetarian. Eat healthy my brother, stay away from the garbage food.

nothing new there.. ever feel like your a guinea pig running on one of those wheel thingys??? yeah okay.. never mind Yesterday I was weeding my mom's garden. Not sure if it was a garden persay, but it had lots of beautiful plants in it.. so call it what you will, and I will call it a garden. The plants are beautiful, they are crowded in. Amongst them are weeds and lots of them I sat there listening to my music on loud, as loud as the player would go.

Yesterday I was weeding my mom's garden. Not sure if it was a garden persay, but it had lots of beautiful plants in it.. so call it what you will, and I will call it a garden.
The plants are beautiful, they are crowded in. Amongst them are weeds and lots of them
I sat there listening to my music on loud, as loud as the player would go.
This thought popped into my head about the weeding and the garden. It's like my life for example.. Before I accept God, I had a lot of weeds in it.. They were entangled into everything. God weeds out the things in our lives that aren't right or good for us. It takes years, sometimes a lifetime to weed those things out.
But he is the Gardener and he keeps going until it's finished. Never once does he give up, he tends to his children everyday and very carefully. That is the thought that came to me while I was weeding yesterday. We are God's children, He is our Shepard, we are all part of God's wonderful garden and he is our caretaker and he does a wonderful job. His love is unconditional.

Often it is the little things in life that bring joy to our hearts...
I had been pretty down...
Struggling with decisions for my future life.
For some reason, my best friend and I didn't get the chance to talk for about 4 days (believe me - 1 day without talking is long and happens hardly ever ).
It was way too hot in the last days.
And yesterday, everything changed.
I was in room, alone, when my mom came in and told me to get to the door, there was someone who wanted to see me. I was like, "Okay..." and as I rushed outside -- there he was. My best friend. We spent the next two hours together. And suddenly I smiled... And I was satisfied with myself and the world.
And in the evening, it began to rain. First some drops, but then a thunderstorm developed. A real nice thunderstorm. Heavy raindrops lashing against the windows. Thunder cracks. Lightning.
I ran outside, at 11 pm, in my shorts and tanktop, and just stood in the rain. Danced in the rain. Like I was insane, and I didn't care.
I watched the lightning, shaped like crooked arrows, shaped like zigzag lines. Breath-taking.
I went inside again, soaking wet. And happy.
I watched the thunderstorm for a while, standing at my window. And I went to bed after 2 am. And all the time I listened to the comforting sound of rain... It was the best night in days.
I feel refreshed. My spirits revived.
I'm back to reality - back to life.
Cherish, this earth is a wonder...

Ok, I'm starting to write a story, and I decided that the countries are going to be flower names. I've decided on Amaranth and Acacia so far, but I need your opinion on the others. I got mimosa, sage, begonia, celosia, forsythia, ixia, and jonquil. Which ones are your favorites? Do you have any other ideas?

I have witnessed springs temparory witdrawl, its metaphoric retreat to its burrow. And instead of seeing the full extent of springs lovely weather, I see only its head popping out now and again. That is to say, the odd bit of sunshine between grey rain clouds and rain. But somehow despite the weathers miserable grumping, I still have found inspirational sights out of the window.
The one lovely set of little beauties that have properly arrived are the birds in my garden! They are just breathtaking and all have such funny little habits. But my favourite birds are two blacks birds (one female/ one male) called Mr and Mrs Blackbird, they are regulars inmy garden and bring me much pleasure to watch.
Still on the subject of birds, the other morning there was 1 little bird that caught my eye, as it was very cheeky. It wanted some bread but couldn't be bothered to get its own. So it followed other birds and tried to take their bread. Well unsurprisingly , the other birds weren't too pleased. In the end, little cheeky bird ended up eating small insects from one of the rose bushes.
Now onto a topic of the arty kind: Photography!
Not many of you (If any) know I love photography! I love capturing a moment in time, a beautiful landscape or even an abstract portrait.
When I do a portrait I always like to see if I can use a different angle or capture an action. It makes the picture so much more lively and full of character!
Something I am definitely looking forward to, is being able to take some more pictures of springs glorious beauty (hopefully on nicer day when rain hasn't got its nasty grip on the weather).
**********
I feel that art and expressing oneself can be done in many different ways, and that mixing two forms of self expresion olny make them more beautiful. Never be afraid to mix different types of art forms!
Till my next ...

All that I'm living for
All that I'm dying for
All that I can't ignore all at night
I can feel the night beginning
Separate me from the living
Understanding me
After all I've seen
Piecing every thought together
Find the words to make me better
If I only knew how to pull myself apart
All that I'm living for
All that I'm dying for
All that I can't ignore alone at night
All that I'm wanted for
Although I wanted more
Lock the last open door-
My ghosts are gaining on me
I believe that dreams are sacred
Take my darkest fears and play them
Like a lullaby
Like a reason why
Like a play of my obsessions
Make me understand the lesson
So I'll find myself so I wont be lost agaon
All that I'm living for
All that I'm dying for
All that I can't ignore alone at night
All that I'm wanted for
Although I wanted more
Lock the last open door-
My ghosts are gaining on me
Guess I thought I'd have to change the world
To make you see me
To be the one
I could have run forever
But how far would I have come
Without mourning your love?
All that I'm living for
All that I'm dying for
All that I can't ignore alone at night
All that I'm wanted for
Although I wanted more
Lock the last open door-
My ghosts are gaining on me
Should it hurt to love you?
Should I feel like I do?
Should I lock the last door open door-
My ghosts are gaining me

I'm hunting in the woods, looking for food to feed my mother and my father. I stumble into a feral cat, cheetah, and I'm stalking it slowly. It hears my steps but looks in the other direction. As I plan to attack it, it dashes past me, not noticing me gaping. Then I hear something approaching. I turn and you pin me to the tree. "Who are you?" I growled as I tried to set myself free from his steely grip. "I belong to no clan, I've come seeking for something." You gaze over me, slowly ...

Then I hear something approaching. I turn and you pin me to the tree. "Who are you?" I growled as I tried to set myself free from his steely grip. "I belong to no clan, I've come seeking for something." You gaze over me, slowly releasing your grip. "Well, I'm busy looking for a meal," I tried to distract you but you ignore. You start caressing my shoulder, chills trailing behind your fingers. "L-l-look I'm must b-be leaving," I shrug my shoulder and tried to leave. You pull me back and press me close to your body. Your scent slowly arouses me, I inhale you but need to focus away.
"Please, let me go," I plead as I see your eyes hungrily peer at my body. "I must take you, you have stolen something that is important to me."
Your grip tightens again on my arm and pull me away from my family. "Where are you taking me, savage?" I demanded, as he stopped ten steps. You kiss me hard and fierce, my lips react rapidly. An emotion erupts slowly but powerful. I try to take control and stop the interaction but your hands are wrapped tightly around me. I focus on my option to attack you but my mind is entwined with my emotions and I lose control. I press my body against yours and start biting your lower lip. I hear a groan deep in your throat, you hoist me up and I wrap my legs around your waist. This arouses you even more. You groan a whisper in my ear, "why must you taunt my cravings, beautiful warrior?"
You kiss my shoulder slowly, trailing them to my chest and I let my head tilt back. I whisper to you, "we must not continue this, I must head out." Though I'm touching your chest, smooth yet hard. You direct my hand to your lips, kissing my palms. You remove my clothing and moan as you worshipped what the Gods have given me. You begin to tear at your clothing, laying me down on the earthen ground and kiss every curve of my body. Your lips kissing my forehead, my lips, my neck. They touch my chest and the curves of my breasts. Your lips moist my underbelly. Then you head lower, and spread my legs apart. "Oh God!" I gasp as you slip your tounge inside me. As you move your tounge around, I arch my back and bite my lip. You pull my lower abdomen closer to your mouth and starting ta...

Mankind is draining earth with no thought for future consequences. We think ourselves the masters of this planet. But were we true masters, would it ever have come to this?

Scientists are using animals like monkeys, mice, cats, rabbits, and dogs for testing products, finding cures, drugs, cosmetics, pesticides and other items that might be harmful and hazardous to us or the envirorment.

Lots of the animals suffer with most of the things like the filthy and small cages, deseases spreading, and the pain that has to be reapeated every single day! Also 10% of all animals are used for scientific purposes, which amounts to millions of animals per year world wide! In my opinion, the appriotness of harming, injuring, and killing animals for a new brand of cosmetics instead of sparing the animals is really cruel. After all, animals have emotions just like us.
With your help, we could spare millions of animals that deserve rights and loving homes instead of being harmed and mistreated as they are now. Let's help save the animals!!!

We got 2-3 inches of snow yesterday. It was very pretty, but the bad side is it all melted then froze on the streets, causing black ice, so it was very dangerous to be out riding in it...

These idiots around here can not drive on a sunny day, much
less if you add snow into the mix. It creates chaos and everybody
goes and buys milk and bread for some reason. I never got that...

It's summer here in New Zealand and today was one of those days where you feel like you are about to melt into a puddle of goo the heat is that smothering. So my friend Abby and I decided to go for a swim. Thank god for my pool! When I was about to go down the steps what do I see but a very small, green frog! We named him/her Kermit/Kerminita. It was so cute!!! Kermit leaped into the water and did several laps of the pool, scaling the walls ninja style. Sadly we couldn't leave froggy be because the chemicals we use to clean the pool would have been terrible for his health. In the end we managed to catch slippery little Kermit and set him/her free in a dirty pond that is in the neighborhood (the most likely place for Kermit to come from) We hope Kermit's happy and safe and it made us feel like we did a good deed for the environment. :-) Karma!
