piece of me is missing

A piece of me today was ripped out, my heart is breaking. So many emotions and feelings running through me, ANGER, sadness, crying. They always used to say you never really appreciate something until its gone, which is so true. Though this may not be important to you like it is to me, but my dog is now moving in with my brother today. He didn't even give me a chance to say a proper goodbye.

I had just woken up and my hair was a mess there was a knock on the door and there was my brother saying hes taking her. Though him taking her is for the better because he has a yard that she can run and play in. She was so excited to see him she completely forgot about me but she didn't know that she was leaving for good.

Though it does sound a little silly now that I write it out on my laptop but I miss her, she was like a bestfriend, a sister a piece of my family. we've been through good times and bad, her abusing me (shes a boxer and she hits me, its funny). I guess i will have to remember her for the cone headed, annoying little dog that she is. I LOVE YOU DIAMOND!

they say blogging is a good form of therapy and i feel they are correct.

peace and blessings :]

IMPORTANT !

I just became aware of this group of adults who started a organization called "Invisible Children" and i think that what they are doing is amazing! and i'd really like to help them out but i'm not sure how yet but i will find a way.

A little information about them...
They were originally three goofy boys (20 or so) going to Uganda but ended up going to Sudan and while they were there they discovered the horrors and truths of the things that have been going on there for many years now. When they went to the Sudan they saw millions of children hiding and going from hospital to hospital hoping to find shelter and escape the Rebels.

[A little history on the Rebels]
It was started by a Joseph Kony who now is the leader who goes around kidnapping children from their homes and schools and taking them to brainwash them into being child soldiers. They are abducted at a young age of like 6 to 10 because then its easier to brain wash them. They sometimes don't even abduct you just shoot you dead right there on the spot. Also, he takes the female girls and makes them into his wives. YOUNG GIRLS ! Thats horrifying, imagine if while you were sleeping your brother or sister were taken from their bed while they were right next to you. And these kids don't have a choice, they could be killed, tortured, or beaten if they try to escape or run.

And so more about the organization.
This organization is trying to bring this to the peoples attention, which he has. They have gotten Barrack Obama to send in 100 green berets which is fantastic. Also you can track the LRA on their website.


if you would like to know more about them you can check out their website and see their videos at http://www.invisiblechildren.com/ . i promise you what these guys are doing is amazing :] and i would love to help them out.

so you will most likely be hearing nothing but invisible children on my blog for sometime.

peace and blessings :]
