Happy Fourth Of July my loves!
Today we celebrate our independence from the british people. I never thought about it before this year but imagine how brave these people had to have been. To sign the form and announce that they're willing to give up what they know (kind of like leaving your parents house for the first time) and just go off on their own not sure of whats to come. That my friends, is FEARLESS. So I salute all those original americans that made the life i'm living here in this beautiful countey today. America still remains one of the only countries where someone can be born poor with nothing, and achieve greatness. Kind of like Obama's story. The American dream lives and will continue to live as long as American's have the same heart. So the rant is over, God bless America. I'll tell you guys how I speant my fourth of July.
I woke up to plumming work being done at my house, and spent some quality time with my Harry Potter book. I'm trying to read it as fast possible to finish before the last movie comes out. I hung out with my family a little then we went to the party we were invited too. It was at a Kenyans family's home and they invited all people from kenya with the exception of my family, we're from Tanzania which is also in East Africa if you didn't know. Kenyan peple and Tanzanian people seem the same but they're very different. I enjoy spending time with both groups. We had dinner together, we prayed together, then we went out and played soccer..which is highly unusual for me. I'm really bad at sports which can be really embarassing in certain situations. I feel guilty for letting the whole team down but everyone was playing. People from ages 21 to 6. It was fun. I felt very together. They are good people. Us
African people have got each others backs.
At the party there was a very unique couple. There was a midget man, with a hunchback..married to a tall woman. I know these things happen all the time but I thought it was the cutest thing. It reminded me that love has no words or boundries and it isn't alway predictable. It just reinforced the whole soulmate theory for me. Everyone has that one person they were meant to be with. And there are lots of trials and issues that might occur and get in the way but at the end of the day the person who you really belong with, the right person..they won't care. A lot of the time I sit and fantasize about that person in my life. I hope I get to expireance a great romance like that of the notebook or titanic in my life. I'm not in a rush though, when it's the right time with the right person everything will all in place. No effort needed. It's called the "sit and wait method". It was preached to me and my best friend a couple years ago and we never forgot it.
song of the day: Firework by Katy Perry (It seems appropriate seeing as it's the fourth of July)
quote of the day: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness - Decleration of Independence
