"The path I am walking I must go alone
I must take baby steps until I'm full grown."

Something To Think About

"When one door of happiness closes, another opens;

but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which

has been opened for us."

~Helen Keller

Peace.

It does not mean to be in a place where there is

no noise, trouble or hard work.

It means

to be in the midst of those things

and still be

calm

in your

heart.

Deep Thoughts From Camille's Thoughtless Brain

"It's better to be at the bottom of the ladder you want to climb than half way up one you don't."

Welcome to my life. I am totally at the bottom of my ladder. And, to make it worse, I'm scared of heights! How in the world am I gonna get to the top? Sometimes I wonder...what if the freakin' ladder breaks? Then what? I'd just probably fall on my cushiony booty, ladderless, and with no place to go. I say, damn you ladder! You'd better have something incredible-wanna give-up-chocolate-better-than-ess-eee-ex for me in the end!

People, what's up with your ladder?

"Everyone knows I'm in over my head,

Over my head."

February 13th

This is the email I sent everyone:

Hi Friends,

It’s cryday the 13th, and I was thinking to send everyone a Happy Valentine’s Day greeting, but this year is a new year and I have temporarily declared myself asexual and sworn off all men---I lote them! (except my guy friends, of course). I keep meeting reverse evolution princes who have the attitude of a staremaster sans the bod. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t have amoraphobia. I just don’t want to be the Valenspammer of the year or even to be as pathetic as those long-stem posers and fear gogglers who would take anyone even foxymorons.

Please excuse me when I say that for today, I would rather not create blue bawls or be a scamentine, but I’d rather be a GHag working on a lush flush, drimming the night away.

Happy Cryday the 13th.

Not bitter at all & never will be a bandwagoner,
camille

Drama for yo' Momma

Oh my goodness! There's so much drama these days. Intense drama that I can't even post up. And, it's not even so much about me, but other people surrounding me. Yikes. I just hope this all stops some time soon. Although, for some people it might completely turn around their lives. All I can do is *sigh* and pray. Here comes the mushy part that I don't really do normally being the sarcastic, non-confrontal, non-mushy person that I am...but a friend sent this to me and I think it's appropriate during these days for my friends & family:

May you have peace within.

May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be.

May you not forget the infinite possibilities that you are born of faith.

May you use those gifts that you have received and pass on the love that has been given to you.

May you be content knowing that you are a child of God.

Let his presence settle in your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise, & love.
