Esther..

Lol so as I was writing the above headline "Esther" the strangest thought came to my mind.By the way its the Esther in the Bible.I started thhinking mmmh I wonder what her last name was and then wondered some more hey did people in the Bible have last names lol I know ....the randomness of that idea...no seriously like was it Abraham Smith or Jacob Brown or Peter now that I think about it the only two name person I can think of in the Bible is Simon-Peter oh and Mary-Magdalene like what was Moses second name or Saul or Joshua or did Jews used to only use one name like where did this whole two or three name business come from I dunno I should contact a dear lady in D.C who would help me out she is Hebrew to the core and teaches Jewish culture....so anyway why I thought of Esther is I stumbled upon such a deep verse in the book of Esther this morning its Esther 4;14 "For if you remain silent at this time relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place but you and your fathers family will perish.And who knows but that you have come to royal position for such a time as this?"
It was basically Mordecai askig Esther to help out the Jews who were all about to be killed after some crazy guy Haman wanted all Jews killed after Mordecai refused to bow down to him.Esther at the time was one of the queens but a Jew.So anyway I like the part he says and who knows that you have come to royal position for a time such as this???Like I was thinking do you ever wonder why you are where you are.Is it coincidence that you have the power to make so many things happen that can absolutely alter the course of yoru life and so many other people.Like there is a reason why you have been placed where you are - have the resources you have.Either way Gods plan will work whethe ror not you use what he has given you..I dunno another random moment I had to blog about...

Through the Looking glass - Kwa Dirisha baby!!!

So a friend of mine and I were in Boston recently well actually it was in the summer.She told me about some glass exhibit and I was like am down - you know my randomness am down for whatever sounds fun...so the guy is called chihuly he blows glass for a living here are some pics I found preety nice...I think I may take a class on glass blowing looks like fun...oh and note the price I had to take the price of one of his pieces just for laughs

study for this study for that study study study aaaghhh

So I am such a Good morning America fanatic yani my head alarm clock is tuned to seven a.m every morning to watch Robin and whats the other guys name?? so anyhu the thing I really do not like is when I hear these famous words, "A new study out shows" bla bla bla.I mean its all fine and dandy studies have led to so many breakthroughs in the field of medicine, weight watching, kids in school but PALEASE!!!Gimme a break the other day it was a new study out shows "two cups of coffee a day may actually reduce your risk of basal cell carcinoma" aka skin cancer ok well fine I get it there are some scientists who spend their lives doing all this research and its great absolutely but really - the classic we are at the store with some lady and she tells me oh no dont get too many bananas studies show they have too much pottasium.Theoretically its true bananas are a good source of pottasium but seriously I honestly asked can you really have too many bananas?? and she goes like well thats what the experts say...WHO ARE THE EXPERTS????You are the expert of yourself why wait for a new study to tell you cigarrete smoking is harmful to your health or isnt it obvious that children who play outside longer are more social and less prone to anti-social behaviours compared to kids who spend most of their time playing video games???Its such a great thing that the world is changing drastically and at sich an alarming rate.And gosh so much good stuff has come out of all the research - from breakthroughs in stem cell research to even acne treatment to technology changes - I mean think about how we used to watch VCRs and listen to tapes you could rewind and forward with a pen lol???However there is a saying I just saw somwhere in French "plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose" the more things change the more they remain the same...so great job wiith all the studies out there but truth be told life is that mysery that no scientist can ever fully explain and thats how it was intended so live and let live.Some studies are very useful and some studies are in the words of Harry Potter hogwash....thats my story and am sticking to it....
