It really has been a long time since I wrote here
Some of my better days are posted on here
Tears cried, Loves experienced, Bloomed friendships
I feel a burning desire to write here once more....

Go ahead as you waste your days with thinking
When you fall everyone stands
Another day and you've had your fill of sinking
With the life held in your
Hands are shaking cold
These hands are meant to hold

Speak to me, when all you got to keep is strong
Move along, move along like I know you do
And even when your hope is gone
Move along, move along just to make it through
Move along
Move along

So a day when you've lost yourself completely
Could be a night when your life ends
Such a heart that will lead you to deceiving
All the pain held in your
Hands are shaking cold
Your hands are mine to hold

Speak to me, when all you got to keep is strong
Move along, move along like I know you do
And even when your hope is gone
Move along, move along just to make it through
Move along
(Go on, go on, go on, go on)

When everything is wrong we move along
(Go on, go on, go on, go on)
When everything is wrong, we move along
Along, along, along

When all you got to keep is strong
Move along, move along like I know you do
And even when your hope is gone
Move along, move along just to make it through
[x3]

(Move along)
(Go on, go on, go on, go on)
Right back what is wrong
We move along

No guy cud ever understand...
There is a feeling that goes off inside a womens heart
Every time she sees a baby
It's a precious moment!

Welcoming to the world...

So much goin on inside
But i guess it's bein covered by the outside
At times i cudn't b happier
Moments of silence are the killer
Then u must think
I know all the right answers
But shud i even b havin these questions?
I'm blessed!!!
No doubt bout that...
I love the changes and challenges
Gives excitement and opportunities
I know time will tell...
Very random..

Being back on the streets this past weekend
Really made my spirit come alive again
I miss it, more then i realized!!
There is a boldness and excitement
That just comes all over you wen u are out there
God is really awakening fresh vision and passion inside me..
It's very exciting!!
Yet at this very moment.....
Thats wen those moments of calm and stillness are most treasured.

I've been watching your world from afar,
I've been trying to be where you are,
And I've been secretly falling apart,
I'll see.
To me, you're strange and you're beautiful,
You'd be so perfect with me but you just can't see,
You turn every head but you don't see me.

I'll put a spell on you,
You'll fall asleep and I'll put a spell on you.
And when I wake you,
I'll be the first thing you see, lyricstop
And you'll realise that you love me.

Yeah...
Yeah...

Sometimes, the last thing you want comes in first,
Sometimes, the frist thing you want never comes,
And I know, the waiting is all you can do,
Sometimes...

I'll put a spell on you,
You'll fall asleep,
I'll put a spell on you,
And when I wake you,
I'll be the first thing you see,
And you'll realise that you love me.

I'll put a spell on you,
You'll fall asleep 'cos I'll put a spell on you,
And when I wake you,
I'll be the first thing you see,
And you'll realise that you love me, yeah...

yeah...
yeah...
yeah...
yeah...

Horrible day!!...
but it ended so well...
was originally dreadin the POX vision night...
but it ended up being sooo much fun...EXACTLY wot i needed...
jumpin round during praise & worship...
like back in the good ole youth ralley days...
screamin the lyrics of "in the light"
because no one else remembered it..lol...
got to realieve some supressed anger...
and let go of some tension i've been feelin...
God just proved so faithful to show up right in the middle of it all...
they sang "here i am to worship"...
brought me back to that moment in malmo, sweden...
i became totally consumed once again by His presence..
wot a GREAT feeling..
after all that...
had a nice walk, (oh for fresh air, includin from ppl)
closely followed was my adventure of waxin aaron's arm pits...
i think knowin he was in pain was the best part of all..lol..sorry aaron...
made me miss college A LOT!!..and rachael..oh i can't wait to see her!!...
after that the wrestling began in the computer lab...
louise with jessy, louise with lacie, me with jessy...
louise with me, louise with jessy...
seein a pattern at all here?
great laughs...awesome way to end the night!!!!...
new wind to face the day tomorrow...
night..

FIELDS OF ATHENRY

Through lonely prison walls, I heard a young man calling
Michael they are taking you away
For you stole Trevelyn's corn,
so the young might see the morn
Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay

Low lie the field of Athenry
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
Our love was on the wing, we had dreams and songs to sing
It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry

Trough lonely prison walls, she watched the last star falling
Nothing matters, Mary when you're free
Against the Famine and the Crown
I rebelled, they ran me down
And you must rase our child with dignity

Low lie...

Trough lonely prison walls, she watched the last star falling
As the prison ship sailed out against the sky
For she live in hope and pray
for her lovely Botany Bay
It's so lonely round the field of Athenry

Low, low lie...

it's so lonely round the field of Athan Rye

The Irish National Anthem

Amhán Na bhFiann

Sinne Fianna Fáil,
Atá Fá gheall ag Éirinn,
Buidhean dár sluagh tar rúinn do ráinig chughainn
Fámhoídh bheírh saor,
Sean-tír ár sinnsear feasta
Ní fágfar fá'n tíorán ná fa'n tráil;
Anocht a theigeamh sa bhearna baoghail,
Le gean ar Gaedhí chun báis nó saoghail,
Le gunna sgréach: Fá lamhach na piléar.
Seo Libh canaidh amhrán na bhFiann.

Seo dhibh a cháirde duan oglaidh
Caithréimeach, bríoghmhar, ceolmhar.
Ár dteinte cnámh go buacach táid,
`S an spéir go min réaltógach.
Is fionmhar faobhrach sinn chun gleo
'S go tiúnmhar glé roimh tigheacht do'n ló,
Fa ciúnas chaoimh na h-oidhche ar seol,
Seo libh, canaídh amhrán na bhFiann.

Cois banta réidhe, ar árdaibh sléibhe.
Ba bhuadhach ár rinnsear romhainn,
Ag lámhach go tréan fá'n sár- bhrat séin
Tá thuas sa ghaoith go seolta;
Ba dhúthchas riamh d'ár gcine cháidh
Gan iompáil riar ó imirt áir,
'Siubhal mar iad i gcoinnibh rámhaid
Seo libh, canaidh amhrán na bhFiann.

A buidhean nach fann d'fuil Ghaoidheal is Gall
Sinn breacadh lae na saoirse,
Tá sgéimhle 's sgannradh í gcroidhthibh namhad,
Roimh ranngaibh laochra ár dtíre;
Ár dteinte is tréith gan spréach anois,
Sin luinne ghlé san spéir anoir,
'S an bíodhbha i raon na bpiléar agaibh:
Seo libh, canaidh amhrán na bhFiann.

A Soldier's Song

Soldiers are we,
whose lives are pledged to Ireland
Some have come from a land beyond the wave,
Some to be free,
no more our ancient sireland
Shall shelter the despot or the slave;
tonight we man the Bearna Baoghal
In Erin's cause.
come woe or weal;
'Mid cannon's roar and rifle's peal
We'll chant a soldier's song.

We'll sing a song, a soldier's song
With cheering, rousing chorus
As round our blazing fires we thong,
The starry heavens o'er us;
Impatient for the coming fight,
And as we wait the mornings light
here in the silence of the night
We'll sing a soldier's song

CHORUS

In valley green or towering crag
Our fathers fought before us,
And conquered 'neath the same old flag
That's floating o'er us,
We're children of a fighting race
That never yet has known disgrace,
And as we march the foe to face,
We'll sing a soldier's song

CHORUS

Sons of the Gael! Men of the Pale!
The Long watched day is breaking;
The serried ranks of Innisfail
Shall set the tyrant quaking.
Our camp fires now are burning low;
See in the east a silvery glow,
Out yonder waits the saxon foe,
So sing a soldier's song.

National Girlfriends Day What would most of us do without our sisters, confidants and shopping, lunching, and traveling girls?
Let's celebrate each other for each other's sake!
TO MY GIRLFRIENDS! Be Happy!

It is good to be a woman:
1. We got off the Titanic first.
2. We can scare male bosses with the mysterious gynecological disorder excuses.
3. Taxis stop for us.
4. We don't look like a frog in a blender when dancing.
5. No fashion faux pas we make, could ever rival the Speedo.
6. We don't have to pass gas to amuse ourselves.
7. If we forget to shave, no one has to know.
8. We can congratulate our teammate without ever touching her rear end.
9. We never have to reach down every so often to make sure our privates are still there.
10. We have the ability to dress ourselves.
11. We can talk to the opposite sex without having to picture them naked.
12. If we marry someone 20 years younger, we are aware that we will look like an idiot.
13. We will never regret piercing our ears.
14. There are times when chocolate really can solve all your problems.
15. We can make comments about how silly men are in their presence because they aren't listening anyway.

(chorus)

I woke up this morning, the sunshine was shining

I put on my happy face

I'm living, I'm able, I'm breathing, I'm grateful

To put on my happy face

...............

Woke up and realized this world's not so bad after all

Looked at it through a child's eyes, and I saw these beautiful

Things that you never think about

Like the ocean, moonlight, stars and clouds

It's amazing how we don't appreciate our blessings

There's plenty of people who don't like me

But since there are more who love me and I love myself

Sometimes, it gets tough, it gets tough

But I can't give up, can't give up

Just take a deep breath, close my eyes

Feel the love and give a smile

(chorus)

It's me, I just wanna be happy

Uh, just be happy, uh, just be happy

Today is the day I am willing to say

I will put all the past behind me, no more enemies

Ready cause (ready cause)

I'm living in this world (living in this world)

I wanna make a change (wanna make a change)

Gonna make a change (gonna make a change)

Put on my happy face

(chorus)

Everything's gonna be alright, everything's gonna be okay

Gonna be alright, everything's gonna be alright

Everything's gonna be alright, everything's gonna be okay

Gonna be alright, everything's gonna be alright

Everything's gonna be alright, everything's gonna be okay

Gonna be alright, everything's gonna be alright

Everything's gonna be alright, everything's gonna be okay

(chorus)

I woke up this morning with a happy face

I'm flying, I'm flying, I'm flying, I'm flying

Flying, flying....

If one day you feel like
crying...

Call me.
I don't promise that
I will make you laugh,
But I can cry with you.

If one day you want to run away-
Don't be afraid to call me.
I don't promise to ask you to
stop...
But I can run with you.

If one day you don't want to
listen
to anyone...
Call me.
I promise to be there for you.
And I promise to be very quiet.

But if one day you call...
And there is no answer...
Come fast to see me.
Maybe I need you.

If I ever ignored you.

I'm Sorry...

If I ever made you feel bad or put you
down.

I'm Sorry...

If I ever thought I was bigger or better
than you.

I Luv You...

Don't ever forget that! Through bad times
and good,

I'll always be here for you.

I am Sorry...

For everything wrong I've ever done.

I'm writing this because what if tomorrow
never comes?

What if i never get to say good-bye or give a
u a BIG hug?

What if i never get to say I'm sorry or I
love you?

Because what if tomorrow never comes?

I LOVE YOU!

and not be moved by you

you calm the storms

you give me rest

you hold me in your hands

you won't let me fall

you still my heart

and you take my breath away

would you take me in

would you take me deeper now

'cause you're all i want

you are all i need

you are everything

*day&night, lisa do u remember that night?..good times babe..hit me hard while i heard it*

went out to a cafe tonight 4dinner & it was gr8!! had my eyes opened to a whole new way of seein things i've been thinking about. esp being here next year...i've been pretty one tracked about it up until recently. learning to leave doors open uless god is the one who really closes them...tonight was good because i also got to hear how they were doin! i miss so terribly being close to my friends & always aware of how they are spiritually, emotionally, ect.. i admire this friend soooo much!! she is a lady of high integrity & strong godly personality. i feel uplifted right now & like i can trully say i'm endin my night on a high...

off to sweden tomorrow for a conference..should be interestin! i'm quite excited to be honest, even though i know i'll not be able to understand a word that is said all weekend..lol..i think i'm just excited at the fact of goin on a trip with so many of master's..i miss things like that. they are always good craic & many memories are always made!! plus i get to go to sweden..another country to mark of the list..lol..i'm gonna do it nat u just watch, b4 i die i'll have done it!

got home tonight to the wonderful joys of the sleep-in...my clothes that i was washin for this trip away wear locked in our friggin washer!! it had something wrong with it & wouldn't open so i could put them in another one..& ere we only get the one day a week to wash, plus we have the trip tomorrow..so needless to say i was quite frustrated...lets just pray jay will be graceous with me in the morning... ; ) ...

the past few days those are the two words that have been on my mind & heart...FRESHNESS & FOCUS...prayin for a renewed focus & in that renewal will come a freshness. although we try so often to allow God to remain our focus at all times, we somtimes without knowin it, do not succeed. mostly because we are human, but also because we believe the feelin of freshness dies. we always want the newest thing, the most exciting thing, & wen we dont have that feelin in wot we are doin for God...we allow it to slip out of our thoughts. yes, we pray..we go to church..but we do not let it live in our thoughts throughout each moment of our day!! i'm a deep thinker..somtimes that's a bad thing, cause i can so often, without realizin it, allow my thoughts to comsume me. another thing God is dealin with me about...someone told us he other day and i think it was a good way of puttin it...we get caught up in the drudgery (those meanial, small, everyday, routine things) of everday and begin to trully question wot God is really doin. but it's in those times that our character trully shines through!! "live each moments as if it's ur defining moment"...good statement...i think so!! yeah i don't really know where i'm goin with this or wot i'm tryin to say...all i know is God is really remindin me that athough at times i feel like nothing is happening..He is still there & this trully is part of a bigger picture i can not see right now...yupyup...feelin encouraged & just believe i've finally come to realise how important my thoughts trully are in directin my focus to God!!...

just checked the Oswald Chambers site today for the first time in ages and this was wot was there...kinda ironic!!...but good stuff...in a way along the same lines as wot i've been thinkin bout..so enjoy..

Are You Fresh for Everything?
Jesus answered and said to him, ’Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God’ —John 3:3

Sometimes we are fresh and eager to attend a prayer meeting, but do we feel that same freshness for such mundane tasks as polishing shoes?

Being born again by the Spirit is an unmistakable work of God, as mysterious as the wind, and as surprising as God Himself. We don’t know where it begins—it is hidden away in the depths of our soul. Being born again from above is an enduring, perpetual, and eternal beginning. It provides a freshness all the time in thinking, talking, and living—a continual surprise of the life of God. Staleness is an indication that something in our lives is out of step with God. We say to ourselves, "I have to do this thing or it will never get done." That is the first sign of staleness. Do we feel fresh this very moment or are we stale, frantically searching our minds for something to do? Freshness is not the result of obedience; it comes from the Holy Spirit. Obedience keeps us "in the light as He is in the light . . ." ( 1 John 1:7 ).

Jealously guard your relationship with God. Jesus prayed "that they may be one just as We are one"-with nothing in between ( John 17:22 ). Keep your whole life continually open to Jesus Christ. Don’t pretend to be open with Him. Are you drawing your life from any source other than God Himself? If you are depending on something else as your source of freshness and strength, you will not realize when His power is gone.

Being born of the Spirit means much more than we usually think. It gives us new vision and keeps us absolutely fresh for everything through the never-ending supply of the life of God.

love you guys!!..missin u all back home...stay encouraged..sorry for the lack of e-mails, just been goin through and dealin with lots lately, but i'll get on the ball i promise!!!....<3nay

hey all...
sorry i haven't written up in a while! been busy & i've been thinkin A LOT..
"master's"...been good mostly. god really is doin a lot in me since i've been back & has shown me how i've grown. i just have this longin to spend more time with Him. He has really opened my eyes and heart to Him in a new and fresh way. it's like everytime i go to pray or just spend time by myself..i feel Him all over me. i'm really enjoyin the closeness i feel i'm experiencin with Him..yeah i may sound cheesey to some..but it's just how i feel right now. i've just become more reliant on God. ppl will always let u down & hurt u (even if they don't mean to), but God never will..He trully is my BEST FRIEND!!..

As most of u i'm sure know, my friend Ashling was found..and for those of u who don't know here is the news..A friend of mine from college went missin new years eve after been out. they have been lookin for her now & yesterday they found her out side of belfast in a river..she had been raped and badly beatin!!..so as much and all as we are relieved we found her..we are not so happy about her absence or how it was brought about. for me right now....i think distance has gotten to me. i'm very sad!! i feel like cryin, but the tears just aren't there right now...i think it mostly has to do with being so far from all of this, but also the fact i hadn't seen her in months..my heart does break, but right now i've been able to keep a brave face. it's been good cause my friends back home are very torn up & i've been able to encourage..but i'm prayin that in God's timin i will really be able to just let go of all this and deal with it in the best way! i know this wasn't God and i praise Him for the blessing she was to me & the wonderful memories i had the opportunity of makin with her. i pray she called upon God and is with Him now...but for now...just keep her finace, family, & friends in ur prayers..

god bless...<3nay
