lessons.

So, I think I'm going to have some sort of direction with this thing. 
I'm hoping that everyday I can and will learn a new lesson. 
I'm still including pictures 'cause let's be real, those just make it more fun! :D
So, here we go. Today's lesson was

DON'T JUDGE A BOOK BY IT'S COVER.

So what happened was this... 
Today at work I upset a dear friend of mine. 
It was not intentional AT ALL! 
And I hope now he knows that. (Which I think he does)
But he told me, 
"I'm surprised. I thought you knew me better."
To which I thought, 
"WOW! I am totally wrong! About all of it."

Two points.
A.) I felt awful for not being a better friend.
B.) I'm glad I was able to realize that now instead of later.

But what kind of person does that make me?


Picture time! 

This is a picture of my Bible. 

Here I go...
Keep in mind that lesson from above. 
Now in my case today at work it had to do with a friend.
But for the past months the Bible has been my biggest challenge.
It has taken me on one emotional roller coaster ride. 
Just ask everyone around me. 
Now don't forget.
This wonderfully crafted literature has heartbreak, peace, love, and sorrow.
(To name a few)
Lately I've been trying to focus on the good.
'Cause let's face it. 
I need some good vibes my way.
Now more than ever in my life it seems. 
And I can't even tell you how much it has helped. 

I'm gonna tell you right now. 
there was a point in my life when I judged this book by it's cover.
and for the record.
SHAME ON ME! 
I was so afraid that I would flip to the one random page and it would have my
 "slap in the face" moment waiting for me. 
How foolish was I? 
Because let's face it.
I NEEDED THAT SLAP IN THE FACE!!
You think I would've learned this lesson then. 
but I'm just stubborn enough to still turn a blind eye.
NOT ANYMORE FOLKS! 

My lesson was learned today. 
so thank you my dear friend for helping me open my eyes.
Even though I upset you, and I am sorry for that.
You helped me once again. 
:D
