The Eclipse

Tonight was the Lunar Eclipse. Watching it made it me think about a lot of things. This last month as been the hardest of my life.
When a lunar eclipse happens, the earth comes in between the moon and the sun, leaving a reddish tent on the moon.
But something that I found interesting was that, even though there is something blocking the sun and moon, a light still shine on the moon coming from the sun.
Colecta reminded me tonight the sun is bigger than the earth.
It just shows me that, although I feel that God(The Sun;son) is not there, I can still see and feel His light. Because of everything in my life, I may not feel Him like I use too,but He is still there. That light is always there. NO MATTER WHAT!
I really think that was God's way of showing me that nothing can ever block me from His love. He made the sun and moon for a reason and tonight was a prime example that the light doesn't go away just because something is in between it.
Thanks be to God for his light, the Son!(sun)

The hardest time of my life

It's been a month since I've blogged. In the last month, My life has changed forever.
Yesterday was february 3rd. Three years ago yesterday, Mother died.
Like I told you before, My Birth parents were drugged addicts. I was raised by my Grandmother(Mother) and my Godmother.
On January 9th, 2008, My Godmother had a massive heart attack and was on a ventatator for three days and died on January 12th. She was the last family I had. She was truly like a mother. We talked everyday. Sometimes several times a day. She called me for no reason and I did the same to her. She was my best friend.
This last month has been really hard. I have been pushed truly into independence. I now have to learn how to live my life without her or mother. I thought that living without mother was hard, but this is harder.
I pick up the phone to call her out habit and then realize she's not there for me to call.
I know God has a plan. But the last 21 years of my life has been rough. I have learned a lot of things. There have been nights that I just want to die. Nights that I really feel like I just want to give up. And I do feel that I dont know what I did to deserve this. My heart is empty. This is real guys. You are gonna see a side of me that even I havent seen. A side that wants to give up and die. But I have the heart of my Godmother and Mother... A surviver. Its not going to be easy AT ALL and its gonna be hard journey. But I know that I have to come out of this stronger.
I am so thankful for my friends like Colecta and Stephanie and Jose who have been there whenever I needed them. Listening to me cry or be angry and still listen and say I love you just like my Godmother did. I love you!

To my Godmother- You have been there for me since I was 6 years old. I remember the times when we use to just go out and have a good time. You never denied me anything that I didnt need and in many cases, wanted. I love you so much. The things that you have taught me will be with my forever. I truly dont know how I am gonna survive without you. You were my rock. Loving me for who I am NO MATTER WHAT! If I could turn back time, I truly would go back to January 8th and tell you so much and try to change things. I wan to THANK YOU for loving me and being there me. I know that you and Mother are walking around heaven all day. Doing what you have talked about. I love you. I miss you. I need you.

You truly are the wind beneath my wings. I love you and I miss you.

Your baby,
Antony (anthony)
