 Dear Santa...
Dear Santa,
This year I've been busy!
In August I broke ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) julia_on_toast's X-Box (-12 points). Last Wednesday I gave free_radikal a kidney (1000 points). In November I ruled Asscrackistan as a kind and benevolent dictator (700 points). Last Friday I had a shoot-out with rival gang lords on the 5 near LA (-76 points). Last Thursday I bought porn for julia_on_toast (-10 points).
Overall, I've been nice (1602 points). For Christmas I deserve a shiny red ball!
Sincerely,
monrock |

Dear Santa...
Dear Santa,
This year I've been busy!
In September I farted in an elevator (-6 points). In July I got in line at the supermarket at the same time as someone else and I didn't yield (-8 points). Last Sunday I helped julia_on_toast hide a body (-173 points). In January I put money in free_radikal's expired parking meter (14 points). Last Tuesday on a flight to Colorado Springs, I stole the emergency flight information card (-40 points).
Overall, I've been naughty (-213 points). For Christmas I deserve a lump of coal!
Sincerely,

"In our lives there are no surprises,
we know when the sun goes down and we know when it rises.
Do not be surprised when things come to change,
do not compromise just try to rearrange."

All that i once knew has gone,
Yet hope is still near.
I can't even pretend to know
what tomorrow will bring.
Why should i fear?
It often times is a scary thought
when i realize my future isn't
completely in my control.
Then again it never was,
Despite whatever freedom of choice taught.
To follow that way would only lead me
astray.
For who is capable of controlling their own
life without life leaving their control.
Not me.
I'm learning more just as one
cannot change the past,
neither can one change the future.
Our choices are made in the NOW.
In God's awesome plan, He determined the
course of time using His Will and
each persons ability to choose.
The choices made in the past determine the
choices being made in the now,
which determine the choices yet to be
made.
If God's Will determines ones ability to choose,
then by God's Will ones choices will be
made. All the more, my selfish desires
begin to fade. |

I was not truly free until i realized there was more to life than just me. |

I'm no better than anyone else in this world, yet everyone seems so spaced out into their own little world of life leaving me alone to do nothing else, but the same thing they're doing. what am i talking about? O, I'll answer this question. everyone i know is in on this whole thing called "LIFE" completely for themselves, to make themselves happy, to live thinking its all for them when they truly know its not, which puts them in denial making them believe they are most special, that they are useful, and they have something to contribute to society. in the end you will be forgotten. in the end you will not have made a difference. in the end you are as useless as any other man in a history book. of course the name was remembered, but that person is no longer truly loved by mankind. He was only remembered for the selfish gain everyone got out of the unselfish thing that man did for society. when i'm dead it will no longer matter to me wether my name was remembered on earth. i want to die knowing that i made the demons quiver, the people find truth, and knowing that God used me.
i want to break free from this little life that i've been living for my satisfaction. i want to truly die to myself. once every man looks at me in discuss from seeing how much opportunity i've given up to make sure that my life has had no purpose in terms of man's understanding... BUT everlasting purpose in God's eyes, then i feel that my life has had meaning. i can look at very few people and call them my real friends. the people trying to make purpose out of their lives for eternity I am honored to have as friends.
i can no longer take a conversation seriously when their is no meaning to it. (in terms of meaning its debatable).
one thing i ask to whoever is reading this: please stop what you are doing, take up your cross, and follow Christ.
stop being useless. i have to remind myself of this often. i hunger for something that CAN NOT satisfy me. i'm talking about my self esteem. it will never satisfy me. where do i look from here but to CHRIST who deserves to be esteemed. |

today was quite an adventure.... i mean seriously... it was craaaaaazy.
AARON'S GRAND ADVENTURE:
today i was not at all in the mood to be bored. so right after i finished my school work, i exploited onto i magical adventure. the plan was to ride my bike from here in stuart to abacoa. so around 12:00 noon i got on my bike and started heading down on dixie highway. one-eight of the way there my left foot peddle decides to fall off. so i couldn't get it back on, so i decided to walk back home. about 45 minutes later i finally got back home. But a broken bike peddle didn't stop me... right when i got home i decide to use my sister's beach cruiser. then i headed back out. i took dixie all the way to u.s. 1 heading south. once i was about three-fourths of the way their i started getting really hungry. i didn't think i was going to make it to jupiter before i died of starvation.. thats when i remembered that i had packed an apple in my camel back bag. and believe me, i don't think an apple ever tasted so good.
well eventually i got to a Wendy's in jupiter on u.s. 1. i got a number 3 biggie size. it was magical. so, after about another 5 miles i made it to abacoa where my dad was, and then we drove back home. altogether it took me about two and a half hours to get to jupiter only because it was extremely windy and i was going against the wind. i covered a distance of about 22 of 23 miles today not including the walk home after my peddle broke.
well, that concludes my magical day... THE END |

| The world which we live |
[Apr. 5th, 2005|09:53 pm] |
today i just found an old journal i wrote at the beginning of the school year. i decided to modify it a little. so here it is:
THE WORLD WHICH WE LIVE
i've grown up in a world were everything is about the perfect life, or if you great edumacaton you will live a horrible live in which you can not contribute anything to society.
don't get me wrong, i think education is a great thing to have. not so we can solve the worlds problems, make millions of dollars on some invention, or so we can have a good future career, but so we can be the best at what God intended us to do. The more knowledge we have about a particular job or service, the better we can complete that task. when God uses us, he doesn't need our knowledge, but he gave it to us this awesome anyway for the greater good so that we can use it to glorify him in every service we have to offer.
The world which we live in drills it into our heads that we need to do all in our power to make our lives great, so WE can enjoy OUR lives.
this world which we live... its called America. USA
Us Americans are so blinded by the society we live in... that we don't even know that theirs even a world outside of the U.S.
The United States is truly blessed. I'm sixteen years old. so i only have sixteen years of experience and knowledge of this world. I would have to say that in many cases i might not be too bright. BUT one thing i know for sure is that the U.S. is blessed beyond any other country there is And as Americans we take every thing for granted. we are so blessed and we rarely even recognize it. Their are people in this country so blinded by our wealth that they could never fathom how much poverty is taken place in the world. there are also people in other countries that are so blinded by the poverty in which they live that they can't even fathom how much we Americans have. an average teen that works as a bagger at publix makes about 100 to 120 dollars a week. thats how much the sudanese are lucky to make in a month.
when i was in sudan one night watching Legally Blond, using the electricity from the generator, one of our sudanese guards kept commenting how nice the grass in the movie was. look at all the money us americans put into something as little as a yard, a lot of people in africa can't even understand what the point of taking care of a yard or even taking care of a pet for that matter. the only things they worry about are taking care of their families and keeping a grass roof over their heads.
well, I'm sure glad i was born in America....
one of the most well known American excuses now days for why our lives are greater than the lives of people in other countries is, " Its because we are harder workers". i personally don't find that true. all i know is that one day i was born and it just so happen that i was born in America. i didn't work harder that anyone else to be born into this country. And since than these entire sixteen years that I've lived, all I've done was live off of our wealth. I did nothing to deserve this life. i personally think it would be a sin to not be happy with this awesome life that i live. i don't deserve anything. in fact the people who were born into poverty, they don't even deserve the little they were given. the only thing that any of us deserve.... is to be crucified. BUT even that was taken care of by God. every little blessing is not our own. my good friend Jeff Jackson said, " we are blessed so that we can bless others". these blessings God has given me as an American i will not keep to myself. though i work for money, i still don't deserve it. its a blessing from God that we can even work for money. i will not hold any of my blessings to myself, i will bless others with what i have been blessed with. God has given everyone their own unique gifts.. don't use those blessings for your self, but use them to bless others.
I don't understand why God loves me so much. He has some kind of plan in which all things work together for. I don't know what it is, but i want to live for God's Will. My life is for his purpose. God doesn't need me, but for some reason he still wants to use me. I will make sure that i step outside of this world which i live to make sure God gets the glory throughout the worlds beyond our knowing. |

| feelings |
[Apr. 4th, 2005|11:41 am] |
Feeling, they are deceptive. we have a habit of making our feelings change the way we think.
many times we let the way we feel corrupt our perspective of what we know as right. If I dislike some one i would usually consider them a bad person, but just because i feel that way about them, doesn't mean they are a bad person. of course we need feelings, other wise we wouldn't be able to have an opinion or i wouldn't even be able to right about this journal.
from experience, i know that feelings shouldn't be what defines your actions. right now i feel like this is a waste of time to write, but the truth is, i really have to much time on my hands. i know that people need to be reminded that their decisions shouldn't be based on what they feel. i too need to be reminded of that as well. most of the time i make bad decisions based on how i feel, but lots of times i regret those decisions. why? because like i said our feelings are deceptive. our feelings are selfish and put us first. BUT feelings are not uncontrollable. self-control is what helps us make good decisions. looking out for the good of others based on what we know is right is what helps us make good decisions.
one of the worst possible things to make decisions based on... are the feelings of others. Because, just as our feelings are based on what we want, so are their feelings based upon what they want, and we all know that making the right decisions shouldn't be based on wants, but needs, and what's right.
how do we no what is right or moral? the answers are all in the bible. so if we base our decisions on what we know God wants for our lives and the needs of others, we can make absolute with out a doubt decisions, knowing what is right and what will glorify GOD.
God gave us our feelings so that we could enjoy life, not so we could be selfish. |

hey this is my first journal....so i guess i tell you all about me.
i will take you on a magical adventure through my average week.
MONDAY: i wake up like every normal person, but instead of having to get up extremely early to go to school, i get up at whatever time that pleases me. mondays are pretty boring all i basically do is nothing except for my homeschool work for like an hour and then i just go online and write stupid journals.
now Tuesdays on the other hand they are craaaazy.... actually they'er practically the same as mondays.
Wednesday: now these days are my favorite.. usually on these days, after i finish my schoolwork, i go into my church offices where i work on making crazy movies or slideshows for my church. i eventually will be starting a missions video production in a few years. i will be filming around the world so people can see what life is like out of America.well, after i'm done working at the offices i usually go to an insane rope swing with my frinds, and after that i go to youth group. before i go into what thursday is like, let me tell you little more about me.
not to long ago i lived in a country in africa called sudan, this place is absolutly war stricken. so ever since i got back i've really had a heart for missions.
one of my favorite things to do is draw. i would have to say i'm pretty good at it too. for a while i was even selling my pictures to a clothing line. o and one of my absolutly favorite things to do is pretend i know how to play guitar, but seriously i do play the harmonica. well, thats about it. lets see what a thursday is like.......
thursday: pretty much the same as monday and tuesday except i'm happy its almost friday.
Friday: i spend my friday nights curled up in the corner of my bed crying.
saturdays: go to the beach and what not
sunday: i go to church and then i go to the beach and what not.
well i hope my week was a magical adventure for whom ever read this. tune in next tomorrow for more of my journal.
o one more thing... if your wondering what this whole monrock thing is all about, then i prolly should tell you that i have a hobby of making my own music and Monrock is the name of my new album. THE END |
