Prostitution


I HATE that this is legal in New Zealand. What kind of country makes that legal? Frick frick frick. AND what kinda guys actually 'use' these services. AGHHHHH!!!!

Makes me sick when I think about the guys that use them, and breaks my heart when I see a prostitute just waiting on a corner.

Came face to face with it tonight, talked to a girl my age, waiting.......

OH why do they resort to this....is it horrible and terrible for them? Are they so numb that it's just a 'ordinary' job to them, what drives them to do this....last resort? Screwed up childhood, abuse, the recession????? Pressure for finances, for all I/we know they might have a office job, where they get in their corporate gear, get their morning coffee, sit at their desk every day, but at night, they become someone else, to get the extra cash.........I just DONT know. I HATE that it's legal so much. There are so many other options out there for woman, if they only had the support around them or someone close enough to them that just cares and loves them enough to try everything they can to just....protect them from going to jobs like this.

Horrible. Ask me about tonight if you want....in person. I could have done more. I hate that I didn't, my mind hasn't stopped thinking of all the things I could have done to stop her from getting in that car, sooner. I dont understand why God didn't answer my prayers for that hour or two following, and I'm not supposed to understand, I'm beyond disappointed, way beyond. Anything could happen to her, not saying I'm miss 'Life Saver' and that any chat that I would have had with her would be like this genius life changing chat where she broke down in front of me, admitted it was a last resort, pleaded for help, I find her a job or course to do, somewhere cheap to live, financial support and get her on an awesome new path of life.....as amazing as that would have been....it could have been totally possible...jesus could have given me all the right words to pull on her heartstrings and that could have happened. Could have. Didn't.

Too late....

Insomnia

Sooooo it's 5:01am, I have to get up in 2hours to get ready for work.
I havn't slept yet....got into bed at midnight, but am WIDEEE awake. WIDE awake.
The birds have been chriping since THREE a.m.......seems they dont sleep either - punks.
I dont know how my body actually puts up with my no sleep, this is SUCH a regular occurence.

Hmmmm, things I have thought about tonight/this morning.....
contemplating going for a run...
what i would do if i won a million dollars, jess, joanna and amie would be pretty lucky. :)
my brothers wedding
mercy ships
weight loss
things coming up for uni

among other things....

I want sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep.

I think i'm going to invest in some herbals tomorrow, see how those puppies work.
Before i resort to the hardcore sleeping pills.

Would a bb gun hurt a bird?...... ;)
I swear with the amount of birds that live in the tree on my driveway I could start up a couple of avaries aye. Their 'voice boxes' should be on mute from midnight to 7am. A law among feathered creatures.

OK, happy sleeping all you regular sleepers. Appreciate those zzzzzz's you be gettin'. :)

101 Things You Should Do Before Going To Heaven - No.5 - Clean Someone Else's Toilet

On the road to heaven, there are some potholes - unpleasant jobs that are part of living in this not-yet-perfect world. Some people try to avoid them. Others grit their teeth and dive right in. Still others delegate, not because they can't do what's needed, but because they won't. They feel ''dirty jobs'' such as these are not worth of their time. Occasionally there are people who break all the conventional rules. They not only do their own dirty jobs, but they volenterr to help others with theirs. The sense of community, service and sacrifice these people share captures a little of the spirit of your future home in heaven.

Go ahead and be one of these ''oddballs'' here on Earth. (You'll fit right in when you get to heaven) Volenteer to clean someone else's toilet. Wash dishes at a homeless shelter. Dig latrines at a church camp. Help with disaster relief in a third world country....not because you have to but because you want to love others in practical, personal, Christlike ways.

When Jesus washes the feet of his disciples at the Last Supper, he was doing a ''dirty'' job. Cleaning off the dust, dung and sweat from sandled feet was something only servants were expected to do. But Jesus loved his followers so much that he was willing to put their comfort and needs before his own. That's what real love is all about.

What you do to serve others isn't as important as the heart with which you do it. The amazing thing is that once you start serving others, you'll find that even a ''dirty'' job wont feel dirty anymore. It may still be challening, tedious, or tiring, but the satisfaction you'll recieve by helping others will make it feel more like a blessing than a chore, nothing like a pothole at all. The End.

Go on, get ya hands dirty! :) Today is RAK day! Random Acts of Kindess Day. This kinda thing definitely shouldn't be a annual day people recognise, should be a daily thing we're doing without even thinking......agree with what it says, sometimes it might still be challenging, tedious and tiring - it's so much easier to just pretend you didn't see it...keep driving, or look the other way, or turn around, or not reply to a request.....but do it anyway. Turn around, stop, reply to the request, volenteer, acknowledge and totally do it. Becomes a habit of the heart pretty dang quickly. And to sound as cheesy as these crazy Americans, the satisfaction totally comes. :) Dooooo itttttttt. :)
