Her name is Yarissa Lily she is 12 years old and lives with her mom in a poor community in the eastern region of Honduras. She an only child. Please pray that I can continue to commit my time and a payment of $30 a month to this wonderful child of god. Thanks for your prayers!!!

Fun times

lol so my friend Kendyl and I went to help feed a friends horse tonight. she is in a wheelchair and I usually take her places for fun. so we loaded up her wheelchair and went to the 6 white horse ranch down the street. we got out and I went and feed the horse rode him a little while and put him up for the night but kendyl decided that it was to cold and went to wait in the car. after I was done I went and got in the car and we drove back home lol. we got to the dorm and I went to unload her chair... IT WASN'T THERE... lol. I forgot it at the ranch what a bad thing to do but we couldn't stop laughing and so we turned around and went back to get it!!! lol what a day what a day

Psychology

I love my Abnormal Psychology class!!! I have learned so much!!! However when we are going over the material I can't help taking what we are learning and analyzing if it explains people in my life like friends or family!!! lol I know how stupid is that!!!! lol Today our class was talking about Major Depression... we talked about all the attributes that cause this type of depression and couldn't help noticing that I fit alot of those attributes for depression. The attributes that apply to me are: I take my anger and turn it inward and blame myself, I idealize a goal which means i set a goal I can't achieve, and finally I have been conditioned behaviorally by my parents due to low reward giving and higher punishment giving. I have also had a depressive episode earlier which sets me up for another episode now or later on in life because I didn't receive treatment for my depression!!!! This isn't good the statistics for this is there is a 50% chance after the first episode I will relapse into a depressive state, after the second episode there is a 70% chance I will relapse into another episode, and after the third episode there is a 90% chance to relapse into another episode ugggh that isn't good!!! I am doing everything possible to keep this from happening because the last time I was in this depressive episode I was cutting almost every single day which in itself isn't good!!!! I am doing group therapy and a 12 step program. But how do I not go into a second depressive episode when my parents set me up for failure by not providing enough rewards to overcome the punishment factor they give me? Or how do I not internalize my anger towards them??? I don't know I guess I can only give it a true try before I seek help for something I have dealt with my whole life but I don't want to set myself up for another depressive episode!!! Like my teacher said a little help goes a long way and the best way to cut 1 episode in half is to seek help!!!! I guess I can take his advise.

Another Thought

So above I talked about depression and the effects of factors in your life that set you up for depression!!! I also said that seeking help after your 1st episode is the best thing for you to not have a relapse back into depression later. But what if you don't want to be labeled as going to a psychologist or help group??? I am this way my fear is being labeled and I don't like to be labeled!!!! I am more passive and rely on my friends to get me through things and I feel if I was labeled as getting psychological help my friends wouldn't look at me the same!!! I know I know everything you say to a psychologist is confidential and would not be repeated but how do you tell your friends where you are going when you go to a session??? I don't want to lie to them but I need this so much ugghh decisions decisions!!!!

Finally the end to what I have written on myspace lol

Poems I wrote
Gone…

You don't know how much you hurt me,
And I don't think you care.
You don't know how much I cry,
Because you aren't ever there.
What happened to this family?
We were so close before
And now we're so far gone
And I don't know how to get us back there!!!

Alone…

I'm so alone
Spending time on my own
It's like I'm from a world unknown.
I feel so isolated
I cry when I go to bed
Almost wishing I were dead.
I don't fit in not here or there
And people walk by as if they don't care
With that black hearted glare.
This time will I ever make it through?
Of always feeling blue
And find someone that will be true.
Words of a Sorrow Girl…

I have been hurt
I have lost my only love I have for them.
My mistake was
That I trusted them
They should not have punished me
They should have killed me instead.
I have no life!!
No One Knows…

Treachery and lies
Heartbreak and silent cries
Torment behind these blue eyes
Way too many early good-byes.
Loss of memory
Loss of faith
Only things that keep me safe.
From myself
From the rest of human kind
My own person
Of my own mind.
Living day by day
In my own private hell
Dying slowly on the inside
And no one can tell.

Welcome to my life

Now I will tell you what I have done for you. 1,000's of tears I have cried due to the screaming, deceiving, and pure hate coming from you. I bleed every time we fight yet still you don't hear me. I don't want your help this time maybe I will try saving myself. Maybe I will wake up for once without being tormented and defeated daily by you. Always blurring and bending the truth to make you happy if only for a moment. I don't know what's real and what's not, always confusing the thought in my head so much so that I can't trust myself anymore. Like a shattered mirror all the little pieces of our fights cut me like a knife. Leaving scars and memories that are to painful to want to remember. Tell me before you were my age did you ever feel like breaking down or out of place in your own family? Why must I go on fearing to come home? I feel hurt and lost like I have been left in the dark to scared to face you. Always feeling like all you want to do is to kick me to the ground and push me around and feeling like I am always on the edge of once again breaking down yet no one is there to save me. I have always put on a happy face when around friends and other family but not five years ago the shit that has gone on behind closed doors caused me to get depressed. If not for my faith and determination to leave this place I don't know what would have happened. This is what I feel about our fights welcome to my life and hope you understand what it is like for once.

Fun
Gravity- a natural force that pulls us one way, yet heaven is pulling us at the same time to be good, pure, and holy.

The Bible says "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you," God has always known us even before the creation of time. And despite our sin and knowing all the things we were (and are still) going to do against him, he still loved us enough to give his life away for us. He has and always will love us.
....
Knowing god is not always easy. Probably the most biggest hurdles is the difference between "knowing" Him and simply "believing" in Him. In James 2:17 it says that faith without action or good deeds is of no value. As we desire to know god better, one question we have to ask ourselves is do we just believe in god or are we seeking to know him more"
....
As believers in the power of prayer, we believe that Christians can ask God to send Christian friends who we can be accountable to and lead us into spiritual growth. Just as David and Jonathan made a Covenant in 1 Samuel 8:13, we have the same opportunities today with the friends God sends.
....
In our modern world, we are trapped in our routines with a myriad of amusements to distract us from the larger questions of existence. Through God I believe I am afforded the life I was created for – a life built around the companionship of creator and creation, God and man. Just as drowning cannot be equated to swimming mere existence is not the same as abundant life. We have been offered a new way to live – a new way to be human.

Some of what I have written on Myspace

Bible Verses
Psalms 55 1-3, 16-17Listen to my prayer, O God,do not ignore my plea hear me and answer me.My thoughts trouble me and I am distraught at the voice of the enemy,at the stares of the wicked;for they bring down suffering upon me and revile me in their anger. (1-3)But I call to God, and the Lord saves me.Evening, morning and noon I cry out in distress,and he hears my voice. (16-17)

Great Song Verses
Devils used to be gods, angels that fell from the top. The devil grows inside the hearts of the selfish and wicked white, brown, yellow, and black colored is not restricted you have a self destructive destiny when your inflicted and you'll be one of gods children that fell form the top there's no diversity because we're burning in the melting pot so when the devil wants to dance with you, you better say never because a dance with the devil might last you forever.Immortal Technique: Dance with the Devil A pebble in the water makes a ripple effect every action in this world will bear a consequence if you wade around forever you will surely drown I see what's going down.

Great Quote
Walls they are everywhere they define us, limit us, we can try to go around them, break through them, or give up and let them close us in but every once in awhile if we're lucky someone opens the door and then it is up to us to have the courage to walk through.
