Feelings show who you are as a person and what kind of person you&#8217;ll become. It&#8217;s a way of life. Everyone has feelings, either they&#8217;re good or bad.

<p style="text-align: center">Are they real?</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Do they exist?</p>
<p style="text-align: center">What do you do when your feelings take over your body?</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Feelings show who you are as a person and what kind of person you&#8217;ll become.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">It&#8217;s a way of life.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Everyone has feelings, either they&#8217;re good or bad.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">You can&#8217;t control them, but sometimes they can become very powerful.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">You can&#8217;t let other peoples feeling and emotions get to you.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">You will be wasting your life trying to solve it, or trying to pretend like nothing happened.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">You deserve to have an amazing, healthy, and jubilant life.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">You deserve to live to be at least 100 years old.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Don&#8217;t let your pain get to you.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Feelings are very real.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">They make you understand things that you <span>probably wouldn&#8217;t have understood if you didn&#8217;t have any. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: center">A lot of people don&#8217;t believe in feelings, or emotions.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">But how do you explain when you have water coming from your eyes when you are watching a sad movie.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">See, when I said &#8220;sad movie&#8221; your mind thinks sad is an emotion, to which you believe is a feeling to become mournful and makes you want to fill yourself with sorrow.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">See, your emotions and your mind makes you feel the way you do, by feeling.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">That&#8217;s how you become who you are.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Not what other people think of you, or what you are trying to be to fit in, or anything else. You are who you are and nobody can change that.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">That&#8217;s what feeling are.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Our Orlando Magic team,<a href="http://www.howardhype.com/files/2012/01/orlando-magic.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-11105" src="http://www.howardhype.com/files/2012/01/orlando-magic.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="168" /></a></p>
<p>is going upstream.</p>
<p>But people are second guessing? They say Dwight Howard is leaving and that&#8217;s what they believe,</p>
<p>but if they do what they need, they can achieve.</p>
<p>So which do you like better? The Lakers,</p>
<p>or put your bet on the one and only Orlando Magic.</p>
<p>Everyone always loves J.J Redick,</p>
<p>Cause he never shoots a brick.</p>
<p>But of course everyone&#8217;s favorite is Dwight Howard,</p>
<p>cause he makes Kobe Bryant feel like a coward.</p>
<p>Ryan Anderson, shoots the ball,</p>
<p>better than Pau Gasol</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t you ever have that moment where you  pronounce Hedo Turkoglu&#8217;s name a funny way?</p>
<p>But even Hedo believes Ron Artest is child&#8217;s play.</p>
<p>My mom&#8217;s favorite is Jameer Nelson. Even though he might be short,</p>
<p>he is better than Derek Fisher on the court.</p>
<p>Even though we have some games on Monday,</p>
<p>it&#8217;s not as good as having a coach like Stan Van Gundy!</p>

Shining bright<br />
Looking into the eyes of a loved one<br />
Now is once upon a time<br />
You hope that the future for the two of you will be<br />
Happily ever after<br />
Holding each other&#8217;s hand, recapturing the moments you&#8217;ve shared<br />
The love united is being shattered</p>
<p>The time of the year is filled with ecstasy and full of love<br />
Understanding that you were meant to be<br />
Our future is a mile a head as the presence passes by<br />
That moment in time when family and friends are shouting, exultant<br />
As your hearts pounds each step down that aisle<br />
The melody is soothing and the crowd too.<br />
That minute, that second when the both of you says<br />
&#8220;I Do!&#8221;</p>

<p>Whoever knew that reindeer could fly.</p>
<p>HO!HO!HO! The big man says,</p>
<p>&#8220;Have you been a good boy or girl these days&#8221;?</p>
<p>The kids ask if they could ride to the North.</p>
<p>Just for a quick little spin.</p>
<p>They didn&#8217;t get in trouble.</p>
<p>&#8220;That would be cool,&#8221; said Flynn.</p>
<p>As they rode off to the North for a world of wonders.</p>
<p>I think they better hurry up, they said it&#8217;s going to thunder.</p>
<p>The made their way to the elves planet,</p>
<p>They met a creative little girl named Janet.</p>
<p>She was so proud to see the little kids face,</p>
<p>When she saw Mrs. Clause walking with a pace.</p>
<p>The children got a tour around the place,</p>
<p>And knew that before the elves ate they had to say grace.</p>
<p>They did so much things with them they just couldn&#8217;t believe their eyes,</p>
<p>They played this one game where they were Santa&#8217;s spies!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft" src="http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTcERpAQ0H2uDcxUmyD9pNIR5nxsdO4MQ8PTRcfKYdZLbL4xZSGVw" alt="" width="260" height="194" />&#8220;I believe that everything happens for a reason. Things go wrong so that you can appreciate them when they&#8217;re right !&#8221; You may or may not have heard of the shoe line named Toms. Toms founder is a generous man named Blake Mycoskie. All it took was a never-forgotten visit to Argentina, which he had such horror seeing. It was there he had an &#8220;Aha&#8221; moment. Blake decided to come up with a shoe line that had an unique purpose and mission.</p>
<p>Many people often take shoes for granted. There are children around the world who walk barefoot and can&#8217;t afford shoes or are either really torn or even do not have the money to buy new ones. Walking around barefoot can cause many infections such as swelling to the foot or podoconiosis. Blakes idea is not only to give shoes to those in need but to also understand why wearing shoes is so important.Blake Mycoskie is very inspirational about making tomorrow better. The name Toms is derived from the word &#8220;tomorrow&#8221;. Blake is made of such great character and spirit . He lives on a boat in Los Angeles. His favorite quote is by Ghandi&#8230;&#8221;Be the change you wish to see in the world.&#8221;<br />
Movember is an annual event where men come together in November and grow their mustaches out. The Movember Foundation charity is to raise funds and awareness for men with health issues. The men are not to shave for a month during November. Toms is involved with this charity they even have designed shoes established for the Movember Foundation.</p>
<p>Imagining the kids without shoes around the world,is like living with misery. A pair of shoes can change someone&#8217;s entire attitude or even the way they look at life. Smiling from ear to ear and shouting with exultancy. I can just imagine the look on their faces thanks to Toms support. These children whose days are fulfilled with darkness. I know they appreciate what is given, hopefully in just a matter of time their days will enlighten.This makes me sit back and think about life, what it has offered me. I am grateful for what I am and have. There should always be something to be thankful for simple as life itself, tomorrow isn&#8217;t promised to anybody.<br />
Toms has an event consisting of going barefoot for a day. Its an event to spread awareness on how giving a child a pair of shoes can change their life ! Reflecting on my life, me spending a day without shoes would be horrible ! Imagine trying to visit different places without shoes . Basically there&#8217;s no where that you&#8217;re allowed to visit . There&#8217;s almost always a sign that says &#8220;shirts and shoes required&#8221;. The scarce stares as your walking by fault-finding people is an ugly situation. Being so used to shoes and going a day without can be really sensitive to our feet. The fact that we aren&#8217;t adapted to the feeling. Besides visiting places with clothing requirements and</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>being surrounded by critical people , I&#8217;d love to spread my awareness for children in need across the world.<br />
A few years back , I remember my Great Grandma gave me a blanket ! I have since kept it and treated it with care. I <img class="alignright" src="http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQjo_z-1oZLBjKQuiGS7oPg920tixqwj8iZRwVfRcOgA-xxSo8x" alt="" width="225" height="225" />always take it with me when I travel. The nice warm fur snug against me fulfills me with joy ! I was grateful for my blanket and will cherish it forever because I know my Great Grandma is becoming of age. I&#8217;m glad I have &#8221;Blanky,&#8221; it&#8217;s something to have of her when she&#8217;s gone. Sometimes I am well-acknowledged of how blessed I am to have caring people surround me. When I want something new , I try not to be bratty. When I go school shopping every year I go through my closet to find what I no longer want anymore and I&#8217;ll donate it to those in need ! I am a person that understands people&#8217;s situation and if not I try not to be so critical because you never know what people go through. If someone is in need of a hand, I am a free hand always willing to give someone comfort.<br />
&#8220;You have to give, in order to receive.&#8221; Is something I&#8217;ve always been told and believe are words to live by.</p>

<a href="http://www.poetryfoundation.org/poem/177021" target="_blank">Life for me aint been no crystal stair.</a><br />
I feel deep pain inside at times.<br />
I wonder if I have a guardian angel near.<br />
My mama tried her hardest to make ends meet.<br />
Mama soothes me speaking clear with care.<br />
Once told give God your heart and he&#8217;ll never break it.<br />
A strong woman is her own woman.<br />
<a href="http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/quotes/a/aristotle138768.html" target="_blank">Happiness depends upon ourselves.<br />
</a>Mama whispers everything will be fine.<br />
I slowly wipe my tears.<br />
The grace of my soul dances around inside of me in such a mellow form.<br />
Live Life to the fullest, because tomorrow is not promised<br />
is something I&#8217;ve noticed.<br />
Take life as it is and be prepared for the tests yet to come.<br />
Sometimes life has to beat you up in order to build you up.<br />
Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.<br />
Everything happens for a reason.<br />
Don&#8217;t you think?</p>
