I Am A Very Blessed Girl.

Life has came with it's blessings many times throughout my life, but the largest blessing that I continually thank God for is the blessing of an amazing family. I have a lot of family you could say, because it's definitely true!

They're what get me by each day, where all my smiles are developed and where my happiness comes from. My compassion, love for others has been passed on from the way my family communicates and shows me each and everyday. The love that my family shares with the world is too large to describe. So, I have a lot of family is what I said previously, and that I will explain to you as to what I mean exactly by a lot. Okay, so what I mean by a lot of family is this: I have my dad's family, and then there's my mom's family and my mom's dad's family and my boyfriend's family. See, I told you it was a lot! They're all different in their own amazing ways. They have made me who I am today, and I will eternally be grateful, and to end this I would say that I am a very blessed girl. :)

Happy Holidays.

I know it's been about three days since I've last blogged, the thing is I promised myself that I would blog at least once a day. I am going to still stick to that, I guess I had just been a little too caught up in what I was doing to even notice that I missed days of blogging, but hey I'm back and not going anywhere. :)

So, the holidays are soon to be here, Christmas, New Years! It is so crazy how time fly's, not too long ago it was Thanksgiving. Anyways, like I said the holidays are coming sooner than we know it, and I am pretty sure that most are spending it with there family, am I right? Okay, well if that's the case I just ask for a few things from ya'll. Wait! Did I just say ya'll ?! haha Oh, wow I guess there is still a bit of country in me laying around from the good old days in Liberty Hill, Texas. Okay, back to what I was saying, I ask a few things from you all when you celebrate these holidays.

Be happy, Giving, Unselfish
Be thankful, and Loving
Be Helpful, lend a hand.

Never take anything for granted,

Love hard and never Hate,

Show love & Compassion always.

Enjoy the time spent with loved ones 

And don't ever take them for granted.

Eat tons, because hey this only comes around once a year!

The best of all gifts around any Christmas tree:  the presence of a happy family all wrapped up in each other.  -Burton Hillis

 

May you all have an amazing Christmas & a Happy New Year!

Why Accept The Jerk and Not Better?

This is a topic that I had hesitated to blog about because I felt it might take offense to some, but I think that this will benefit some people. So, the title of this post explains it all, your question is why do women do this?

Well let's see maybe it's because of there own insecurities, or maybe it's just plain blindness. Many also ask why do women always go for the guy that treats them like they are worth nothing, I from my own experiences can answer these questions. Let me give my own past experiences and reasoning and then speak my full opinion of why this may be occurring. 

I would always choose the guy that was the bad boy, the guy that was so good-looking, who had that smooth talk that somehow would get every girl's attention, including mine. Once I was able to get the guy, everything would seem great at first but once time progressed things began to change drastically!  He would rarely text or call, was never on time whenever something was planned. He always managed to find anyway to avoid me and treat me bad. Whether it was name calling or even just flirting with other girls. Now your probably thinking to yourself right now, what the heck was wrong with her, why didn't she leave him. Well, to answer your question, I stayed with him because I loved him with all my heart and deep down inside I had always thought that maybe he would change. Did he? No. The fact of the matter is nobody can change you, anyone can say that and believe that it is possible, but in all reality it cannot happen. The person has to be willing to change on their own. 

Now, this is my opinion on why this may be occurring with many women, and just my own outlook on this specific topic.

I think a big part of it is many gals like bad boys. The bad boy, when he wants something, he definitely will not beg pretty please. He just grabs what he wants. Many--not all--women get thrilled by this unbridled desire and dominance.

The bad boy does this because he's not afraid. He's not afraid it will alienate her because he says to himself "if the girl likes it, there's more where she came from." Whereas gentlemen appreciate a woman's individual attributes and are afraid of losing one who seems like a good one. This fearlessness of the bad boy makes him seem more virile and therefore more appealing to women.

It is indeed very sickening to hear from women "there's no good men out there" when the real problem is the preference they show for bad boys and attached men who are weak enough in character to be receptive to other woman's flirtations.So it seems like they want bad boys. But actually they want handsome, interesting, highly coveted and confident guys... but those are often used to being wanted and therefore like to play with those girls. And the girls don't care until they are crying and left alone. This is still something that I still try to understand, but my advice to those who are in a situation such as this, give the nice ones a shot, think about what you need, what you deserve. I believe that all women deserve a wonderful man that will treat them with great respect, love only them and show them what real love is. I am tired of seeing such amazing girl's being treated in such awful ways by their boyfriends, husbands.. etc. It's such a touchy subject, but I felt that this is something that needs to be spoken about. Maybe this will help someone out there who is struggling with this type of situation, and if it does I feel so grateful and to have touched, helped someone in need of advice or even just that little push to get them to get out of a relationship like that.

All I can say is that from my own experience I have overcame what I call the bad boy syndrome, I gave it time and waited for that one that was going to be wonderful and who was going to treat me the way I should. Before I knew it he came along, Cesar, who has been my boyfriend for about seven months, loves me with all his heart and treats me better than I've ever been treated. He is amazing, more than I ever asked for. Always thinking of me, never letting me down. Just there for me for anything, through everything, and I am truly grateful.<3

Love Story: My uncle Javier & fiance Diandra, soon to be wife! Let's see how to describe there love, one word WOW! The love they share is just so pure and beautiful, they've shown others what real love looks like, including myself. Just being the amazing people they're already, show there unconditional love for one another with passion and happiness. It's just too cute! :) I love you guys.

Fully Grown!

I never thought much that time would fly as fast as it did, until today. This morning I went to an award assembly, alongside was my grandpa. We where going to see my sister, Samantha who is 8 and my brother Vincent, who is 9. I was unsure of what the award they where receiving was exactly, which made me real anxious to hear about.(: So, as all parents, brothers sisters, and other family members gathered, squeezed tight in the small auditorium they had, then began the ceremony. It was like any ordinary awards ceremony where each student was called up, while on stage, camera's where flashing, and there where loud cheers from the audience. By the way I forgot to add, I had been running on little sleep, due to other reasons, so anyway, I was half asleep. But, I stuck it out and I promised I would keep both eyes wide open because it was my babies special day. Students where called one after thee other, and finally my first award winner was called up, Samantha Toyos they announced on the mic, as I watched her every movement making sure she had made it up there fine, I saw her up on that stage and through the midst of all the pictures I was taking, by the way I was a total paparazzi and I think some parents might had wanted to give me the boot from hogging all the spot. Back to the story, like I was saying through the midst of it all, it dawned on me, that moment of reality, I thought to myself, my babies are no longer babies anymore. They're so much older, growing more and more each day, they're almost out of the little kid stage. It was time to move past that, of course they would always be my babies, but they will also become something so much greater whether it was being a doctor, teacher, or even a firefighter. At that exact moment I knew that they where no longer little babies as they once where, they where grown children. I was willing to accept that, as much as I want them to be those tiny little bundles of joy's that I held in my arms, I understand that there comes a time in life when you have to let them carry on and blossom into something amazing. My lesson to parents, although, I am not a parent I raised my brother's and sister's since the diaper stage. They're the greatest gift that you could ever receive, from my own experience and thoughts, they're my life, my happiness, seeing them smile, brings so much happiness to my life. The feeling is indescribable, but simply well worth it.

I like this quote: "A baby is God's opinion that the world should go on." Carl Sandburg 

To my brother and sister: You guys will always be my baby's. Love you.

Life to me is like...

I was thinking to myself about my analogy on life, and I have came to a conclusion that life to me is too deep for words, so I say don't try to describe it, just live it.Why that? You might be thinking to yourself. Let's look at the definition for "Life" shall we.


-The power of adaptation to environment through changes originating internally.

The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. Focus less on what you used to do, before, and focus on what today has brought you, what makes you smile each day and the people that have been brought into your life and be grateful.. satisfied.. and in conclusion to that, be happy with who you are, love strong, live life to your fullest extent, and be thankful for each day that is given.
