Question

What is a dream?
Why do we dream?
Why do we not dream?
Why do dreams inspire us?
Are we all living a dream?
Are we all living in a dream?

Dreams

Have you ever wished you could finish a dream? I feel that whenever I dream I am always awakened at a vital part. So tonight I wish u could have the same dream I had last night but actually finish it.
While I am on the subject of dreams I'm finding that I am having less and less nightmares. This makes me happy because let's face it, who likes nightmares because I sure don't.
Hope you all gave plesent dreams tonight that make you feel better about yourself and life.
:0) PEACE

Prayer Labrinth

Over this weekend I went to Camp Johnsonburg with members of my church and another church from Trenton. At J-Burg (what we call the camp) there is a prayer labyrinth in the middle of the woods. To give you a little background on the labyrinth, it is made up of rocks and there are trees growing in certain spots.

On the first night I was there, my friends (Tadd, Kelly, Kenz, Mel and Than) and I walked out in the dark, freezing cold. Only some had flashlights with us and I was not one of them. Once we got there I was the first to go in.

The beginning of the labyrinth was sorta easy because some of the light was being shinned on the ground but when you are in the begining of a line of people and you have no way of knowing where you are going, your going to trip and that's exactly what i did is stumbled and tripped my way through the labyrinth and I even went the wrong way and one point. However I did make it to the end and makeing it though to Part 1 of the end was so moving for me. What made life even easier is after I was ready to make my way back Tadd walked before me and lighted the way for me. What I thought was so amazing was that when someone has the tools to walk though life (in this case it was a flashlight) the people following have it easier because now they know where they are going. While in the prayer labyrinth I was happy to have Tadd infront of me because I had a feeling that if I was leading again I would have tripped and stumbled again. Sometimes you just have to let someone else lead when you aren't ready enough and don't have the tools to reach your final destination safely.

Vacation

My life is so busy. I feel like I have no "me time". I'm in school to 4 or 5 everyday because of:

Vocal ensemble (till 5)
Vocal Chorale (till 4)
Tech Club (till 4)
STAND (till 4:30)

then I go to church for:

Youth Bells (6:15-7:15)
Chancel bells (7:15-9)
Choir (7-9)

add in homework and I'm up anywhere from 11pm- 1 am. And I'm still doing homework at lunch and on the bus.
What is even worse is that I'm the type of person who gets sick and tired when she doesn't get more than 8 hours of sleep a day. I've been sick for a month.


This is why I'm so glad to be getting away from it all for a weekend and having a somewhat of a "me time." its just me, nature, and god. . . (and church friends)

I found this quote most true today.

Sorry.

To all who read my no so much of a blog (Tadd, Mel, McKenzie). I'm sorry. I abandoned my blog for almost two months but I'm making a promise to myself and you.
I Abigail May Gardner will update my blog every single week until posted otherwise. Each post must be more than 3 sentences long and cannot be a rant about something stupid (ex: toilet paper) . If I break one of these promises, I give you full permission to yell at me until i fix said mistake.

Your, now, proper blogger,
Abi

P.S I also want to put a quote on everyday. . . but I'd forget once in a while.
