God is fun

Ever thought God was boring and serious 24/7?
Well check out this, God told a woman to dye her hair pink, God did. Why? To tell people God is fun.
Crazy huh?! Well God's, God and it sounds pretty un-boring to me!

Awesome story

This is a totally awesome story done by Story teller, it is eight parts so I decided to drip feed it to you, just to make you feel better ; )



The Battle Surrendered  
Part One  
Storyteller SilverLoom

     They came at night. Like gliding shadows, they moved soundlessly across my bedroom. I had no idea they were coming for me. There was no time to prepare for their attack.
     I woke just in time to see them reaching toward me. It was too late. Their fingers were like ice; black icicles circling around my arms, my neck, and my head.
     Screaming in terror, I pulled back, trying to roll over, trying to get away from the shadow creatures. Still they clutched at me.
     All at once, a dim light dawned over me and my assailants. But instead of clarifying, this light seemed to make everything blurry. It illuminated the shadow creatures, but they did not disappear like shadows; instead, they seemed to grow more solid, and their skin turned white, soft, and pleasantly warm. Their eyes were dark, but gentle. The light seemed to emanate from someplace unseen behind the creatures.
     A strange feeling invaded my body and mind, similar to the one you get when you have a fever and take a sedative cold medicine. I could feel my eyelids droop under the unnatural disorientation, and I began to wonder why I was fighting. I reasoned that I was not being hurt, so why bother to struggle? It was too much work to try to get away.
     The creatures pulled me into a standing position beside my bed. I didn’t resist. One of the creatures twittered in my ear, its voice soothing, “Follow meee….”
     I didn’t ask where it wanted me to follow it to. I would see when I got there. It would take too much effort to talk.
     I remember taking the first step to follow the creature. Something nagged within me, telling me that what I was doing was stupid and wrong, but I buried the feeling and stepped forward. The next thing I knew, I was blinking as if I had just woken up and saw that I was no longer in my bedroom...

And that's all for now ; (

Can't wait to the next one, huh? ; )

Greetings, me wee guinea pigs!

I've got some reading for you: How 'bout dat? [ uh english please! how about that]

So strong it brings many to their knees, so gripping it leaves one empty.
Like water it fills a well but leaves it dry with thirst. It is demanding.
Like a story that can never be told, a story that that can never be expressed.A story that has incredible power that only the witnesses can dream of retelling. It is unexplainable. It carves out one's heart, it is like a strong wind, it is so big, it is so un-describe-able, how can it ever be put into words? It bursts through walls of iron as if they were made of feathers: It can not be stopped. Some maybe afraid of its rising tide, but I am not. It is so un-contain-able, yes so very terrible, words can not express the thunder of its coming, or the pin drop silence that place when the Master comes, when the hem of the His robe brushes a human's heart, the burning desire for Him that only He can awake. The beauty of its voice. The great honor of of its calling. The immense power, the huge-ness. The GRACE!!. The vastness. It crushes the universe with blinding light. It is so mysterious, it leaves the watcher in tears.To see this is an incredible honor, that can be seen... for free!
It is not to be taken lightly, it takes the broken, the unqualified, the outcast, the shamed and shunned. It takes their pain away, such a beautiful release, such undeserved grace.It can't be compared to anything   ....ever. Without a price!                  
  
It pulls, it tugs, it unravels an adventure, takes the elderly over mountains the children over seas.It falls like rain. Those in its rising flood, turn to those in the desert "Won't you come?! Taste of the rain! Feel the surge of the water! Wade into its unfathomed depths.
Drown in the swells! Here you fear nothing, you need not bring anything except yourselves. Be prepared to change in strange ways.
Oh, sink in the waters of love!"

For it is love that topples many, that sweeps through and leaves one longing for more.Love that tells a story that can never be retold, it craves out the heart with longing; it drives like the wind, it is so large, one can easily lose oneself. Love flies through
every defense. Some are afraid of its changing powers, but the ones who have tasted aren't, no one should, the love is un-hate-able.

Love can never be captured, yet it was nailed to a tree, it is so terrible, terribly magnificent. From the nails blood ran, like water; love can never be stopped. The sweetness of love's voice whispers "Father...forgive"

Without love the earth trembles and breaks mourning its loss to the skies that have lost all color, all light, all stars and moon.
Sweltering blackness has fallen. All suffocates in its thick tangible flow. All can that be seen is a trickle of blood , the trickle of life
the trickle of love ... dying.

Frigid tensions run through the skies agonizing groans ripple through the earth, the surface between is paralysed with fear.
For three risings of the sun the world os empty of life, is stripped of its essence. The earth cries out in grief. The people are the only ones unaware that the universe is in its death throws. They wake on their Sabbat to worship a dead love.

In another world love enters. A kingdom black, heavy, soaked in evil. A place where blood is the water. A place that has never known love. A place reeking with hate, murder. A place where the sun was too scared to rise... the land of fear.
Then like the ripping of curtains, like the crashing of thunder, like a fork of lighting. Love enters, the first rays of its liberating dawn span across a wasted landscape. A delightful aroma arises like steam. Darkness flees, things begin to grow, the sewers of blood vanish. Life has arrived. In the middle of this land is a towering mountain atop of this is an empty pool, Love lands on the  east side of this, the angel of light [ The devil was an angel + most people wouldn't listen to something devil-ish looking I picture him like so:] with dark blood dripping from his hands, the prince of darkness, crouches on the other side. Into the pool bright blood pours: flowing from the one named Love. The dark Prince trembles and hands Love an ancient looking pair of keys.
"Love" leaves the land. Darkness returns.

On earth it is the hours before light. The weary earth will yet again see a lifeless sun rise, the plants will another day suffocate
with its dying presence. Yet the people are unaware that this day the curtain will tear, that from this day the earth will never be the same again. And yet shepherds lie by their sheep and kings by their treasure -sleeping! 

The sky lightens to a deep purple. A breeze blows across the earth. The trees, plants waters and oceans stir beneath its power.
The wind carries a secret; a promise of change.

And then light, blinding light, rips across the land. You can almost hear the universe laughing with unimaginable joy. The ocean dance frenzied dances of happiness,the earth rumbles with delight and the sky shouts out its pleasure. The very air jumps with excitement.
Love has returned!
It's still hear, right now. Unknown to most is its power, its force and its name: Jesus.
Some are still in the desert of darkness, some are still slaves to another world to a dark force.
Few are in the rain of love, few feel its strong insistent pull.But it is there for anyone should they just see what 
"love" has done for them and repent of their sins, freedom is there, joy is there, peace is there for the broken who ask

So what think you?
Impatiently awaiting your comments

story brewin' -'gain

I feel like writing something, my lovely guinea pigs.
Beware:

Should sailing through wind stop you?
The sentence scripted on the wall, held her spell bound, sailing through wind?
Would not slicing be a better word? She thought of the gail-force eastilys that rode in
across the waves, sail through that?  
What could it mean?
She touched the writing, and gazed down the "hall" this place was strange, [hold onto your imaginations people]
This whole wall was covered with history, in fact the entire building was drenched with it.
"I wonder what this place was built for?"She whispered to herself "That it be crumbling on the outside, but not a day old in, how curious!
She walked along this wall toward the front of the room, letting her fingers trail on the cold stone. She was unaware that the letters and words she touched, were turned into the shining blues of a peacocks tail, behind her.Or that the same colour was filling her footsteps.Onward she walked, up on to a dias the tattered blue carpet crunching under each.She reached the top step and turned around and looked down at the long hall, she saw the grey walls and wooden floor all the way down to the open door in the corner, it was a long way, but she could still make out the willows bending in the punishing wind.

All of a sudden she felt cold. A gust of wind must have come in, she thought, as she rubbed her bare arms. She turned around to see if there was any good carpet to cover her arms.She gasped, the wall that had once been stone had turned into a giant sapphire curtain, spanning floor and ceiling.The wind caught it, and as it rippled the letters of the word Istenba appeared in burning blue.The world she saw  jumped but her vision never refoucsed, she stepped back, she felt like she was wading through oil.
She lost her blance and kneeled over, slowly, because of the... air. The ground opened up beneath her,
a black abyss, she screamed and tried to stop herself, but she kept falling, the air was forced out of her lungs, everything turned black.

She woke up to the crashings of waves against a beach, she sat up slowly, her head spinning, it was dawn.



Aaaaaaannndddddd I have to eat tea

Different things

Different things...

A little girl boards a boat, a far from sea worthy boat, her Mum pushes her on the flimsy thing.
"Mother there is no room for us!"The little girl cries looking at the 50 or so on board.
Her Mother still pushes her on board.


Veilima looks down at the boat "Husband, where are we going?You said this would take us to another land, this boat will not go far!"
Her Husband just stares, his eyes glaze over,"Honey I did not know"....



Another woman boards a different boat in another land, the boat looks similar.
She is in a experiment, she gets her travel bags taken off her, she gets on this boat, she too does not know where she is going. She moans that she's sick when she's not, she argues with her fellow passengers, a few hours later she says she's gonna get off, there surrounded by water. She stays sullen for the rest of the day. Night comes and the boat takes on water, the others bail out she just stares.
Things get worse and fire breaks out in the cabin, they all put on life jackets. Just before they jump in a boat finds them.

In that rescue boat they see the director of this experiment.He tells them that the boat they were on was perfectly fine, the whole thing was rigged up. Some people get really anoyed, and say they're Australians, this shouldn't happen to them, they have rights!


This is all true, though I had to make up the first bit. The first people would become illegal refugees in Australia, the second people were in an experiment to see what the refugees go through. Most of those people were racist, like the woman above, or just annoyed that the Australian Government are spending money on refugees, they think that freedom is only for Australians, and as the woman above says later when they are watching people being rounded up because they have need to flee the country [this is in  their native country] and being beaten up for it, she says the should being doing that in Australia.
How twisted are we?
That we think our brother should be beaten for his colour, for escaping from the worst the world can throw at him?



Something to ponder [and comment about :P]

Idea, help too!

Name HELP!!!Please see end of post

Why?

I'm brewing up a story.I'm gonna try Romance, I probably won't get that far.
What is the idea that is the water to my story soup?
Mail order Bride.
Why? I like the idea, but I'd like to add some flavour, some stock, the guy who 'ordered her' has died and the farm has been sold.
It'll be set in the 1800s.South Dakota.
Herbs she's an optimist he's a pessimist.He tolerates people, she couldn't be without them.
Spice: she's terrified of angry people, scared of the dark and scary dreams  [similar to someone I know]
He has an explosive temper, hates himself, he's a choleric type.
She's 4#, 7# 3#.
He's 8# 6# 5#.
The last thing he wants right now is a wife, and when he wants one, she'll be quite, demure, shy a 2#, but God had other ideas.So when a small bubbly red head [well it's auburn, funny how most of my females end up with red hair] with big violet-grey eyes, turns up on his door step saying she's his bride, things go funny.
If I used one word to describe her, it'd be alive
him, grumpy
So I have to now go and figure out the rest.

Your part:
 I have though of names but I would like your opinion
what names do you think would suit?
Can't wait for comments!!

Something else

I thought you readers-not-writers might like something different.
We have not a lake, much to my sisters utter disappointment, they have been praying this week and staring at the computer weather forecast and praying for rain again, and telling the sun to shoo, while every one else would quite welcome the change.Ah dear I just hope it either pours or shines, and if we get a lake that we will have food for our sheep.We don't have lambs, won't til Christmas

Birth Order

Did you know that the order in which you were born greatly affects you?
Well it does, read and see if it is...

The eldest is the apple of their parents eyes, because its their first wee darling-they are likely to be the most responsible.Two years later number 2 comes and number 1 has a fit of jealousy because they are no longer number 1 and only, they now have to share their parents. So the eldest will grow up saying "I was here" first and 2 will say "I try harder".
They will generally be in some kind of competion all their childhood days. The first might be good at drawing and the other scrapbooking [this is true for two people I know, remember I am first born]
One might be a socialite [generally the second] and the other not, they complement each other if they work together.Middle-ies tend to be peace makers, how sad for the 'norm' of 2 children!! [and they say life is unfair] We'll all be at logger heads.  
Youngest's  are the charmers, [this is probably the same for only children] they tend to expect things done for them, everybody else will be looking for baby's stuff while baby waits round.Bit of a mix huh?This is not always true though...

So what could they grow up to be?
Interesting Info from a counseler.
Eldests tend to be doctors CEOS lawyers 92% of US astronauts and 94% presidents were first born.
Seconds more popular.
Middles Peacemakers
Youngests, *because of their charm* make good actors, sales people and con- artists!
[Mr Wickham was the only child aka the youngest]
[Mr Darcy the eldest]
See how this can make a difference, to your character?

Something funny a person put all the eldests in a group, middles and youngests. They were all asked to do something, when their time was up, they were all ask to present, the oldests had elected a spokesperson to speak so he started, the middle said they hadn't enough time, and the youngests all started talking at once, familiar?

So where did I get all this info? Laurie Campbell *warning one bit one may like to skip*

Enneagram

I've been reading Crafting unforgettable characters an e-book and its proving quite interesting *see end of post*
And it talked of enneagrams, ennea, means 9 in greek.I didn't know what that was and it has to do with psychology.

So what is an enneagram?
It is like the king, servant, thing in my meet me post.But it is more than that.
It's to do with different personalities [warning you can't actually say someone is 1 or 2 it's their choice]
So it's useful for guess what- finding your character's personality
so what could your character be?

1# Perfectionist or Reformer [I think this is like prophet]

2# Helper, Nurturer, Giver, Caretaker or Pleaser [Servant]

3# Achiever, Succeeder, Performer

4# Artist, Individualist, Romantic [Dreamer]

5# Observer, Watcher, Thinker

6# Trooper, Loyalist, Guardian, Defender

7# Enthusiast, Adventurer

8# Controller, Aggressor,  Chief [King]

9# Peacemaker, Mediator

Twos, Threes, Fours -come from the heart- these people are more caring, more emotional, think about the past-

Fives, Sixes Sevens- are from the head- these people tend to plan, plan, plan and think about the future-

Eights, Nines, and Ones-are from the gut/body- and I suppose you can tell what these people are like-they tend to think about now/the present.

And if you are writing about a husband and wife or romance, the same thing goes for them as in the preparing to be a help meet, opposites attract, good thing for us writers because it causes conflict, which is needed in stories, and it's just good in general, imagine two pleasers married! They'd  both be up at 5am bumping heads, because their making each other breakfast in bed!!!Or two Controllers trying to boss each other round.God knew!!! What a relief!*some people do marry the same but it's very rare*
Hope you found that interesting.I'll talk about how birth order can change your character.
