these are in random order... but i just want to say:


i am thankful that i am alive and well another day.

i am thankful for my family and my dear friends.

i am thankful for everyone who has helped me to become the person i am.

i am thankful for everyone who has ever believed in me.

i am thankful for LOVE... for that is what saved me.

i am thankful for the roof over my head, the clothes i that own, and the food that i eat.

i am thankful for the new car that i have.

i am thankful that i have a brain and can think.

i am thankful for joy.

i am thankful for all the promises that God has made for me.

i am thankful for NJSTARS and being able to attend school tuition free.

i am thankful for music.

i am thankful for freedom and that i am FREE.

i am thankful for the resources available to gain more knowledge.

i am thankful that my parents are still married.

i am thankful for mercy and forgiveness.

i am thankful for the church of Grace and Peace.

i am thankful for Cutting Edge Youth Ministries and all it's leaders especially PJ (Pastor Jim).

i am thankful for all the blessings in my life.

i am thankful for spring time and when flowers bloom.

i am thankful for the sun.

i am thankful for my cute little cat.

i am thankful for the ocean, trees and just nature in general.

i am thankful for creativity.

i am thankful for communication.

i am thankful that i am not alone and i never have to feel alone.

i am thankful for whoever is reading this.

most importantly, i am thankful for Jesus and the sacrifice He has made to save me. He gave His life for me, and because of that, i put my life in His hands. it's the best decision i ever made. He brought me to life... and I love Him.

i feel like there is so much more to add to this list... but i guess this is it for now. i will add more as i think of them. "a thankful heart is a happy heart"- i really do believe this... because it's not until you actually count your blessings that you realize how much you have. it's unbelievable. you can't help but feel just a little bit happier after being a little more grateful for what you have. true story.

exquisite corpse

this was an exhibition that had its opening today. some people have gotten confused about the title... so to clear up any confusion or misleading thoughts you may have about what this exhibition entails... here is the history of this game. it all started with the surrealists :)

tonight's show had 92 artists, from new jersey, new york and pennsylvania, that have collaborated on 30 mixed-media works. my dear friend amy ortiz was one of the artists. and i also got to meet a few others.

ok, so now that i got all that squared away. here are some pictures of the works that were in this particular exquisite corpse exhibition.

warning: these are only cell phone shots, left my good cameras at home... so yea.
