Keep It Sybil

Jay-Z said, "Have an affair, act like an adult for once".  Those words got me to thinking about having an affair.  An affair is really an adult thing to do and since I am 36 years old I figure that there is no time like the present.  So I set out to plan an affair.  It's not an easy process. Because an affair requires more than just you it takes coordination with the other person and you have to decide on a place and what the atmosphere will be like.  There were plenty of conversations being had and a list was made.  The time to execute the plan that would make my affair had arrived.  I was surprisingly calm in this situation.  I did all of my prep work and I was running a bit late for the agreed upon time for the rendezvous.  Other than that I was happy to be able to check, having an affair, off of my list of to-do's.  Here I go. I walk into the agreed upon location and I feel an immediate sense of accomplishment.  My first tha...

Love is always a hot topic.  There are literally millions of people everyday that ask questions about love.  Many people would probably say that love is elusive.  Others may say that love is a many splendid things.  Some may say that love is something that can do without.  Love makes the world go around! Love can be blind but in most cases, it is something that opens your eyes to so much.  As a child you look at your parents and get so upset that they have all of these rules and regulations.  Why do they have to get on your case so much and if they really loved you they wouldn't do 90% of the things they do to you.  As we get older and begin to see things from an adults eyes and maybe you have your own children and you have that aha moment that allows to understand how deeply  your parents really do love you.  Then you can understand the rules and why you weren't allowed to strap on your skates and jump out of that tree onto the roof o...

War, what is it good for?  Well the lyrics to the song say, "absolutely nothing", I don't believe in that personally.  Well, actually it depends on what you are going to war for.  Are you going to war to bring justice to a person that has been wronged?  This is a good reason.  Think about it, there are children in our country who are suffering because the big juggernaut of a medical field will not help ease the child's pain or give them medical attention if their parent is unfortunate enough as not to have any medical insurance. Another example of going to war would be the reason the President of the United States of America went to war over 10 years ago, for the control over another country's natural resources.  That for me is not a good reason to go to war.  This for me doesn't need any further explanation.  I can think of many other types of war but, I am actually wanting to talk about.  First let me give the definition of war that I am ...

Freedom from doubt is the definition of trust. This definition got me thinking about the things that people in general and me specifically have trust in. Of course th first thing that comes to mind is my trust in my savior and best friend Jesus Christ. That being said God is love so by extension I trust love. I trust that love will do exactly what it says it will do. I also trust that love is truth and therefore it may hurt you but it will always turn out the way it should in the end. One Sunday I went to church and I was feeling a little down on myself. So, I sat down with my deacon and a good church friend and discussed with them my thoughts. I explained allnof these scenarios and different circumstances to the both of them. I must say that I do trust and love love these two. Well they did what two friends would, they listened intently to all I had to say then they offered their advice. Very good advice is what they gave and while they spoke I listened intently to them. I...

I have been having an amazing few days. It's so funny how things can turn around so quickly. I am not sure where to begin so I will start from where I feel is the beginning. The beginning may seem like a long time ago but I will make sure it moves along fairly fast. I am going to take you back to 2006. This was a pivotal point in my life. November of the year 2006 was the month that I lost my aunt. She was the person that kept everyone in the family together. When it was Christmas, Easter, New Year's or any other holiday or time for celebration we all knew where to go. She would make sure that everyone felt special for whatever their special occasion was. When she died it took everyone aback. Personally, I didn't get out of my bed or talk to anyone for three days after my dad called and told me she was dead on that Monday morning. I don't remember the funeral except that it was hard being there. I knew that things would never be the same in my family ag...
