Volleyball is so fun! I wish I would've signed up.

I'm a slow runner, but I love distances.

you should see me chase chickens to get them back in the pen LOL

I honestly am not a sport person. That's probably why I'm out of shape. I just don't get into soccer or anything else of that matter, I'm more into reading and writing. That's probably why I'm destined to join a Carmelite order.

No, what is that?

I work really hard to be a runner... It's kinda hard to be one who isn't exactly a skin-and-bones skinny person like my brother.

I love to read and write, too... And draw.

There aren't enough hours in the day!
What is a Carmelite order?

I could never do that.

I've got activity induced asthma so seriously, I could never do that.

A Carmelite order is a Order of Nuns. They are very devoted to God, and live in a secluded convent away from the rest of society. They never get to see their family outside of the walls once they enter, so they can get closer and closer to God. I think they can see their family behind a grate though.

Saint Therese of Liseaux was a Carmelite.

Oh my gosh!

I... Wow. It takes devotion to do that.

I would absolutely love to do that, but... I just don't feel that that's what God wants me to do.

I still don't know. I sure don't think that I'm going to be a stay-at-home mom, though I think I'll have kids, and I don't want to be "just a wife", either. I want to get married, but I want to have a job, too.

This is so hard.

No big deal, honestly.

Although, I did almost have an Athsma attack a few weeks ago, but that was my fault as I didn't use my inhaler.


Indeed it does. In all honesty, I feel drawn to one of those orders. But I'm still deciding between A Carmelite order, or the Missionaries of Charity, which was founded by the Confirmation Saint Blessed Mother Thersa of Calcutta. Oh, decisions decisions...

I understand. I was contemplating married life as well, but I specifically asked God to lead me down the right path after Mass several times and I really feel like this is the way for me.

I feel like I couldn't live without my family, but we all need to make sacrifices for God that seem impossible. He won't ever ask us to do something we can't; like Abraham and Isaac. (Did I get the names right?

I know all these stories, but I mix up names.

) He was actually about to sacrifice his only beloved son for God, but it was just a test.

I just hope that whatever I do I can glorify God in it. I'd absolutely love to be a missionary, but I don't know if I could handle that as a career, especially with children. My heart is just touched by Haiti, but that can be a dangerous place if I want to bring kids for a long period of time.

Yeah, it will be a hard decision someday. But, I'm quite willing to do it for the sake of getting to Heaven.


Oh my, that would be hard with children.

You know whats odd, it wasn't until about a month ago that I started putting the pieces together and started figuring out what I should do with my future. I've always wanted to adopt children, I've always wanted to travel to other countrys and help as a Missionary, and I've always wanted to become a Nun. Well, this is what I figure out; As a Missionary of Charity, I could travel to another Country, help plenty of homeless children, and be a Nun.

Same here.

Wow, that's cool.

I just don't know... I know I have a TON of time before I need to think about college and my future seriously, but I've always thought ahead.

If I do become a Nun, I might donate my College fund.

I won't exactly have a need for it after I join....


This is the Missionaries of Charity.

And this is the Carmelites.
