"Good Girl"

"Hey, good girl
With your head in the clouds
I bet you I can tell you
What you’re thinkin' about
You'll see a good boy
Gonna give you the world
But he’s gonna leave you cryin'
With your heart in the dirt

His lips are dripping honey
But he’ll sting you like a bee
So lock up all your love and
Go and throw away the key

Hey good girl
Get out while you can
I know you think you got a good man

[Hook]
Why, why you gotta be so blind?
Won’t you open up your eyes?
It’s just a matter of time 'til you find
He’s no good, girl
No good for you
You better get to getting on your goodbye shoes and go, go, go...
Better listen to me
He’s low, low, low..."

Those are lyrics from Carrie Underwoods latest single "Good Girl". Why am I posting them. LOL. They have been stuck in my head lately. I feel like thats what a lot fo girls need to hear. We get too focuesed on whatever guy is paying us attention at that point time and lose sight of who they actually are and the kind of person they are. Who they make us when we are around them and how they change us. Because whether we like it or not,  everyone that we allow into our lives takes a piece of us with them. Even if we dont intend to let that happen. We have no control. As humans, we are flawed. lol. Thats why I like music so much, it says so much more in 3 minutes than I can articulate in 20.  It gets across feelings and explains itself so much more beautifully than I can imagine. I really appreciate song writerd for that. lol. They help me express myself. :)

So, even though I havent blogged in forevevr, I felt the need today. God has really been pulling on my heart lately, about several things. One in particular is my job situation. Which if you talk to me ever, you know all about that. lol. But, recently I have been contemplating whether or not I am on the right path. I know I love kids,...duh! lol But, working in the school system that so often stresses me out and leads perfectly good people into taking anxiety medicines because they cant calm down to function. It is not like that for all, I realized that. I am not so closed minded. I enjoy my kids and know that I genuinely love being with them. Lately I wonder though if maybe my presence isnt required elsewhere. Maybe God has something for me, that I never even thought about. I can't close myself off to that just because it isn't comfortable or what I planned. It is not about me, remember? lol.

Secondly,.....this boy. Enough said. lol. I have finally gotten to a good point with having peace about my singleness and isnt it funny God would throw such a curve. More proof that He has a sense of humor, if you ever doubted that. I am not going to go into great detail about this boy just yet. Just pray for me! I am not even kidding. I am in unfamilir territory with this one girls. lol.

It's funny to me that this post started about with kind of a anti-boy song and ended with me cofessing I like one. lol. But, anyways...Stay Inspired, Keep Praying, and Love those whom you come into contact with, you never know! \

Love you Guys!

What is Beautiful?

So, I am constanly seeing things that are screaming you should be this way, you should look like this....do all these things and you will be happy? How much truth is to that? If you spend all this time making yourself better when are you ever going to truly be happy. I think you should embrace who God has made you to be. We are here on this earth to love, to love despite anything and everything that is thrown in our direction. I don't see anywhere in scripture that says Jesus took preference on anyone, that he picked and choosed who He was going to love on and who was left out. He didn't, He loved on whoever was there, whoever was open. We are all flawed, thats just part of being human, but there is a God who isn't and we need to search for want He says and not worry about what everyone else does...


Untill next time......Courtney

My birthday

Today is my birthday and I wish I could say something amazing happened to me today,but it didn't. I got up, went to class, had lunch with some pretty cool kids, and came home after which I went to work. PLus, to add insult to injury I have a killer eye infection, that just won't seem to go away. I shouldn't say my whole day was a waste, b/c that would be a lie. Some really great friends took me out to lunch, my mom left me a really sweet card wishing me luck on my last first day of college, and my boss at work bought me a cake and some flowers. So, maybe it's those little sweet blessings that should be more focused on than the eye infection, work, of having to go to school.

untill we meet again.........Courtney

My Newest Obsession...

So, when I have time from work, babysitting and the mountains of homework my science methods teacher finds it nesscary to give us, i have this newest facination that I just cannot get enough of. I will probably be obsessed untill i read all the books.
The book series is called Pretty Little Liars and it is just soooo intense. I love it. ABC family turned it into a TV show and I love that too. It gives me a healthy break and escape from my chaotic life which is a plus. And it is so interesting, I am dying to know who A is, which is why you keep watching a reading.


Thats all for now....Untill next time.....Courtney
