Enjoyed things•

a little bit of goodness

I had a gut feeling to come on here today . I guess the idea of recalling things and having them noted so that I don't forget is better ... Have you ever had a great feeling of doing something but yet the fear of being alone  , becomes the reason for not doing it?. Yeah I felt that way yesterday. I had to run some errands yesterday that involved driving from one end of the city to the other. Driving with two kids isn't always easy , but its fun when you find yourself bumping little Einstein's and the car next to you giggles while staring at you like your crazy. There are perks you see; to having children  what ( well you get to justify your actions because you do have kids , and children need to be entertained ). ha!
 We had stopped to buy some carls jr. prior to heading to the mothers market , that is located in area where a lot of homeless people hangout . Sort of the ghetto minus the gangsters, there are a lot of empty business buildings , so maybe that's why I see them every time  I go.  It is a sad sight. The US being one of the wealthiest countries and this is what we have too show for it. *shakes head*. I had bought a burger and basically let it sit there while I went into the market to pick up some goods. Once we got out and in the car I seen this elderly man walking with a cart full od bedding,  blankets and other things.  I can't really just go up to people given that I am by myself with two kids. I drove off feeling so guilty , here I am with a burger sitting on the passenger side . I kept asking the lord for forgiveness , because I had not given this man some food. I would redeem myself, and that I had promised . Forward several hours passed when I had to pick up my son from school . and we all set  off to Costco which is again on the other side of town. We finally went in came out and lets go, it's kind of a drag going to Costco its always so packed. As we made a stop I seen a couple who look rather young  and a baby in a stroller  with a sign asking for money . I didn't think about it twice, I rolled down my window and hand them some money. After I drive off , I'm thinking wow the struggle is real ..I head by Joann's and too my left I see a man with his belongings and with also a sign up asking for help. I  go through the drive thru order some food and extra food ,we drive out and I hand him the food and a couple of bucks. Honestly, it seems surreal these series of events. The lord really hears our hearts . As a human race we might not be able to save the world , but we can change the life of one person . No I'm not rich but for charity there is no social standard, its what's right . The lord is a great example of this. I am a strong believer of uplifting some ones spirit , we are all struggling in one way or another, but when we give a helping hand our struggle doesn't seem as bad anymore.
p.s.
It's amazing how the lord works in mysterious ways, he's always by our side guiding us all he ask for is for us to listen to him.

This weekend.

(Instagram photos)
I can honestly say it was a very nice Halloween . The night was perfect , by that I mean the weather . It seem as if people were in the Halloween spirit this year. A lot of homes were decorated , they looked so inviting .  everyone we saw was in a costume . Ah! It was nice , quiet and peaceful night. With all this said this year we did things a bit different; we drove up to Moreno Valley to meet up with my little nephew and mom so we could celebrate together.(given that my brother and sister in law were on a trip) My babies  really enjoyed it. That was all that counted. So I can say with certainty that this day went down in the books 2015 totally rocked .
