First and Foremost there is a movie that has recently been released and may be in a theater near you called OVER COMER Go see it!! It is amazing, very inspirational and encouraging. It shows how we should continue persevering despite our circumstances no matter what we face. Whatever might be one's circumstance, I promise you that everyone has something that needs to be "overcome" Whether its health, finance, family issues IT is all important and ALL valuable!! While the issues that need to be overcome might be discussed or not, THEY are all important and God cares about each one. Please hear me when I say, I am not Preaching to you all in any fashion! If you all know me off screen at all, I am sure you know some or at least one of my struggles that needs to be overcome. It is hard to do it sometimes more than other times and truly I say to you brothers and sisters, it is my opinion that you and I cannot do it on our own!! We are weak helpless human beings that de...
When I lived in the village we had small cute little mice (NOT CUTE) (another story) and then we had..... RATS not R.O.U.S (Rodents of unusual size) but they were certainly RATS!! Anyhow one of the good old times was watching young boys go after RATS and killing them.. These RATS would have these nice deep holes and so they had to be forced out of the hole! The boys were clever and so they would have a big bucket of water and pour that into the hole. There were always a group of the boys that had sticks whatever they could gather and when the RAT came rushing out they would proceed to beat It and chase it if need be.. When the RAT was deceased they would burn the hair off and clean it and in the very end eat it Happy RAT hunting!! :) Laura

This is a part of me that up to now has not been shared with many, but sometimes sharing the painful parts can bring healing and can let people see why someone might be how they are. In 1991, I was in the fourth grade and my family was back in the USA for the year. At that point my learning disorder had not been officially diagnosed and I was desperate to understand my instructions in school and to fit in. Thankfully, I do not recall every day of that awful year but my mom has told me that I came home every day crying over some event that had taken place that day. I recall being teased, bullied and not included in what I longed for,friends and acceptance.I recall getting in trouble because my teacher had to document sending home a student for spitting on me. i recall asking to play with the class and I was told by a classmate that they ha...
