Maybe You Should Follow Your Dreams...

I'm not feeling inspired to write today. That's the weird thing about my creativity. I'm only creative half of the time, if I'm lucky. But when I am creative, I can be really creative. CAN is the key word there. Sometimes I'm creative but not creative enough. Like in writing posts, I can think of several topics, but no words to write about that topic. I can put chords together to form music, but I can't think of any words to sing with it. I can think of a story line but no dialogue to go along with it.  And if I can do those things, half the time I'm basically stealing someone elses idea.

I guess that they say there isn't anything new under the sun and that you have to re-create it in a way that is new and interesting, but I find it hard to do that sometimes and I wish I could just have my own idea. Other people seem to do it. Why can't I? Maybe I am, but I can't see it. Maybe it's because I'm to scared to share my work with the world. I guess that nobody ever really thinks that their work is particularly great. Unless, of course, fame has gone to their head. But in most of those cases, that persons work really isn't that great after all.

I guess it's kind of like Marty McFly from 'Back to the Future' and his music. "What if I send in the tape in (to a record label) and they don't like it? What if they say I'm no good? What if they say, "Get out of here kid. You've got no future"? I mean, I just don't think I can take that kind of rejection." Yeah, but what if somebody likes it? What if Noah has given up the first time people made fun of him when he spoke of a flood? The whole of everything would be different.

What if Thomas Edison had given up when people laughed at the idea of his inventions? No light, recorded music, no movies! ETC.

What if musical groups gave up when they were first rejected? like what if Liam Payne decided that since Simon Cowell Rejected him once that he would do it again? He wouldn't have come back to the XFactor 2 years later, and their wouldn't be a One Direction. (Please forgive my obsession with the band One Direction)

I guess you've got to try. The worst they can say is "No. It's no good." right? If you don't try you might be left wondering for the rest of your life. "What would have happened if...(insert the pursuit of your dream here)." But of course, there are times when you shouldn't try. Sometimes you want to pursue something but you know (or GOD knows) that it isn't the right thing for you. That you are to go down a different path. I guess that is different for everybody, and everybody has to ask GOD about it themselves. But as for me, I believe that I should be using my talents for the LORD, so if you need me, I will be building up the courage to continue to do that.

WOW, this entire post is a cliche...I'm sorry. You get what I'm inspired to type. HEY! I guess I was inspired after all!! :) :) :) PTL!! :) :)

One of my Thoughts

Have you ever stopped and thought about just how awesome our God is? Just how much he cares for us? Just how BIG he is? I was thinking about it one time and these are my thoughts. I think that it's amazing personally.

Our sun is actually on of the smallest stars in the universe. The largest, or at least of on the, is Canis Majoris. That star is thought to be just under 2000 times bigger then our sun and our sun is about 109 times bigger than our home planet, Earth. Here are a few pictures that I found for us visual people who hate math. 



Okay, now think about how big the earth is compared to us humans. (you could even go further and think about atoms, and micro organisms, and germs). The universe is absolutely massive and GOD is even bigger than the universe! We are these microscopic fire ants that keep on biting but God still cares about us. He loves us so much that He gave up his only son for us, and even though we keep on sinning He hasn't turned away from us. So undeserving of so much love, so tiny, yet so important to Him. The one person that truly loves us unconditionally. He sees all our our flaws, yet he doesn't throw us out. He has the patience to stick by us even when we're so stubborn no-one else would, The mercy to forgive us every time we disappoint Him. I'm so unworthy of a king like Him. 

(I got the pictures from www.jesus-is-savior.com. I didn't read any of it, I just took the pictures. The other info that I couldn't remember I got from google searching.)

Introducing Me

On a semi-random whim I created a blog. I have been thinking a alot lately about what I want to be when I grow up, I'm still not exactly sure what it is but I do know that it should involve one of my God given talents. (which probably sounds obvious but whatever)

 One of the things I consider to be a talent is the fact that I can write better than I can talk. Meaning that if you give me a question, a bit of time, and let me type my answer out I would sound much smarter than if you asked me in person. In person if you ask me anything, my answer 99.5% of the time is "I don't know". I'm not lieing, you can ask anybody. Well, not ANYBODY, it would have to be a 'body' that knows me. Anyway, the fact that I am typing this post is proof enough that I write better then  speak. I went on a week long church trip once and for three entire days one of the chaperones didn't hear me say one word. I don't talk much.

Yeah, yeah, you don't talk much why did you decide to blog? Well, it started november of 2012 when one of my friends introduced me to a Vlogger on YouTube (same this as blogger except with videos). From then on I loved the idea of vlogging, but i've havn't ever had the courage to actually make a video by myself. Then recently thinking about my mom having a blog and the afore mentioned 'writing better than speakng' thing, I said to myself "Hey, you could do a bloggy type thing!" and I said back to myself "That's a cool idea! it's worth a shot!" so here I am, typing on my tablet that I have named Augustus(thats another post in itself).

Ever since I was 7, I have been interested in being a writer. I wrote a series of childrens books when I was 7 or 8 along with a few other random stories, and I am now writing a book for school. The thing I find interesting is that I hate writing essays, and I have only recently started to enjoy reading. The two things that, to me, a writer would need to like. But I have also realized that in order to achieve anything you have to work for it, and work isn't always fun, so maybe I will be a writer when I grow up, or maybe I will achieve one of my other dreams. Who knows? Only God does, and I trust him to reveal the answer in his time. In the meantime, I will try not to freak myself out about it. :)

Oh yeah, you probably would like to know what to call me. My name is Mikaela, but you can call me by my Username(if you can pronouce it). Aleakim69. Its my name and year of birth backwards, because I couldn't think of anything creative.

I like Moutain Dew, Teddy Bears, and One Direction. :) have a nice day.

(UPDATE!! my username is now KaeZanne. 3 letter of my first name and 5 of my middle name.)
