It's been a while, and it's almost Christmas!

Hello bloggers and INTERNET surfers, if you just happened to come across my blog, please feel free to check out other blog posts in order to see what it is I blog about here!

It's been a while since my last blog, as I had stated in previous blogs, I am in school now, I am studying to become a hair dresser, some may be shocked, but those who really know me wont be surprised at all! I've always wanted to do this, I love it and I feel like I am dreaming when I am just sitting around at school wondering what task to go to next. It almost brings tears to my eyes that I am actually there! Is that happiness? Is it a life long goal finally met? I believe so, and I can't remember ever feeling that way, about something I've done for myself.

I'm not the best there, but I know I am good! I did 4 different hair cuts yesterday and the people and myself are happy with the end results!

I'm also here to say Merry Christmas to everyone, I may not post before Christmas and I don't know how long it will be before I post something afterwards. Either way though, I'd like you all to know that I do miss you all and that I do often wonder how you are all doing!

Enjoy your Holiday, with safety, love and happiness with Family and Friends.

And always know, There is always someone who cares. Take care

Ann
PS- I'll be keep all those who were taken from us too soon, and praying for their families not to suffer grief too deeply. My heart goes out to you in comfort at this time.

Happy Thanksgiving,from Canada to you all!

Hello! And..
Happy Thanksgiving, from Canada 
To you all!


I know I haven't been posting for quite some time now! I've had some computer issues, and I have also been busy since I started school, last week, school has been great and I have been loving it, it has been something I have been wanting most of my life and now I am finally doing it and that makes me happy, I know it is going to have it's times when I will get discouraged and be hard, but I didn't come all this way and work so hard to get there and just give up on it!
I wanted to stop in for that small update and to say "Happy Thanksgiving", to everyone!!!!

There is just so much I am thankful for right now!!
:-)
Much Love and Happiness to all!

Happy Labour Day!!

I'm Canadian and today it is Labour Day!
I'd like to send out a Happy one to everyone celebrating today and I hope you all enjoy your day off as well as the weekend that has just passed.

I'm not sure what else to add today, I have been researching for when I do start school so I don't feel so new to the subjects and will have a little bit background knowledge. I don't want to go in too overwhelmed with all the information that I am going to have to learn, and process.

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and have a wonderful Labour Day!

Everyone has a past...

Over the years I have heard others say "they have a past", this was referring to different people, so please do not think I am just saying that directed at one person.

Everyone has a past, and everyone makes mistakes. Whether it's a crime committed or a person(or persons) we hurt, there is always that label of having a past. If we think really hard on it, we'll realize that everyone has a past and we all make mistakes, if not for mistakes not one person in this world would have succeeded in anything in life. Some successful people started from the ground up with having done something "bad" or "wrong", but we all know that if we gave up if by making our first mistakes, who would we be and what have we of learned along the way?

Do babies fall when they first start to crawl? Do they give up after the first try? No! Do they stop trying to walk after taking their first steps after falling hard on their backsides? No! Have we given up after first trying to skate or ride a bike? No!

Just because some people make bad life decisions, doesn't mean we should give up on ourselves and or others. They were choices made, maybe out of poor judgement or because of simple peer pressure, either way it's mistakes. Some aren't bad choices, some are just bad timing. No one should give up, you have to have faith in yourself and your abilities!

Why do some people give up because of a few bad life choices? You didn't give up when you fell off your bike or some other thing you "learned from"!

Bad choices are made to teach us, we date someone and maybe they hurt us in a way we never thought we would allow ourselves to get hurt. Maybe we bought something before thinking about it before wasting the money on that item(s), or perhaps we stole something because our friends did or did something drastic because of a dare(Don't jump off of a bridge)?

Mistakes are a part of everyone's life, we all make them and if we didn't we would not have lived, we must learn somehow. With experience and by observing others we can learn a lot. Mistakes are like eating, sleeping, breathing and any other thing we must do in order to live! We must also remember though if we think before we do, it might make all the difference on how people view us. Sure they are going to say, "they have a past", but do they wonder what choices they've made? I'm not saying to go rob a bank or steal a car, I am saying, we all have done something in life we aren't proud of. Some make reckless decisions and some make good ones, but there are times when we all make one or more choices that we aren't proud of.

People make mistakes, that doesn't mean that they themselves are mistakes. No one is a mistake, even killers that haven't been caught aren't mistakes, they are just making bad choices. I am not condoning them, I'm just saying, if you haven't killed anyone, why beat yourself up because you did drugs for years or stole most of your life. So stop yourself if it makes you unhappy in doing those things!

Some people make harsh decisions because they feel their life depends on it, it feels like a need and they feel they don't have a choice. Maybe they don't want to think about those choices, everyone can change and lots of people change for the better, change is a part of life too.

We must choose to better our situation, if we want to change who we are, if we ourselves are making ourselves unhappy. It's not just about others and what they have to say, sure it hurts to hear it, but we can't change for anyone but ourselves. If you're unhappy with your choices, than change them choices, it's never too late...

Thankfulness and being grateful, kind with much!

Thanks to everyone who comes and reads my blogs, with much appreciation!
