Always alone, but never lonely

The ideal of being alone is something that I have live with all my life! As an only child my title only included "me introductions". The hidden pain that I experience was so intense for me as a child at 4 years old being left in a car all day while my grandfather was working at the factory. I remembered crying for hours. That fear has followed me throughout my life, never realizing the connection from my childhood.

Our past has a lot to do with our future we create. I never realized why I was so obsessed with getting attention from women, one was never enough. Truth be told told they would never last, I always had a reason why they were never good enough. Don't get me wrong, some were good women, but they could never satisfy me. They only had three qualifications to meet. 1) Physcally attractive to me. 2) Could carry on meaningful conversation. 3) Satisfy my body.

Now believe it or not I could always find atleast 2 of the three qualties but never all three, so they could never live up to my expectations. Who am I fooling, my expectation were I did not want to be left alone, so I would never allow myself to care. Being alone didn't make me lonely, it was when I did not have any one to turn too, that made me feel lonely! I never knew about being insecure until I quit running. So many emotions to deal with is hard to say, the realization of my dysfunctional life has lead me down a long and winding road... You see so many doors that I want to open and I must share. Although I am so afraid of Pandora's Box!

Do you know where Hurricanes Develope?

My fiance and were arguing the other day about where Hurricanes came from. I argued that they developed off the gulf of Mexico. She said they came from Africa. I was wrong,


This is the information that I found. During hurricane season, thunderstorms form over Africa and travel west across the Atlantic, where some develop into tropical cyclones. For hurricanes to develop, specific environmental conditions must be present: warm ocean water, high humidity and favorable atmospheric and upward spiraling wind patterns off the ocean surface.

The Atlantic hurricanes usually start as weak tropical disturbances off the West African coast and intensify into rotating storms with weak winds, called tropical depressions.
Once the winds exceed 35 miles per hour, the system, now called a "tropical storm," gets an alphabetical name. The storm now has the circular structure of a hurricane, although it may not become one. Powered by solar heat that was stored in the ocean and then transferred into the warm, moist air, the tropical storm becomes a hurricane once winds exceed 74 miles per hour. (You might expect a rotating storm to whirl itself apart, but hurricanes feed on themselves to gain strength. In their energy flow, hurricanes resemble large thunderstorms. But while thunderstorms can start over land or water, hurricanes only start over water. Hurricanes also last much longer, carry far greater energy, and cause much greater destruction.



Due to the Coriolis effect, the lower levels of a tropical cyclone start rotating counter-clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere, but clockwise in the Southern.
Eyeball the eye wall Hurricane winds whirl around the bizarrely calm "eye," a circular region with little wind, no rain and often a blue sky. The placid eye is surrounded by a circular "eye wall" of furious, thunderstorm-type clouds and the fiercest winds. Gargantuan winds, combined with extremely low atmospheric pressure near the eye, cause a catastrophic rise in sea level called a storm surge. This destructive mound of water, topped with furious, wind-whipped waves, can hoist the surface 20 feet above average sea level, causing biblical-scale flooding along coastlines.



Although storm surges are the most dangerous element of these storms, water causes another problem: All that condensing moisture eventually falls as torrential rain. Although hurricane winds slow as they move inland and become deprived of energy, rains can still be drenching. A hurricane starts with a tropical disturbance. The warmth and moisture of the ocean during late summer and early fall months (when ocean waters reach their highest temperatures) energizes the pre-storm conditions and leads to thunderstorms.

Tropical storms that continue to intensify will keep pulling in warm and humid air from the lower atmosphere while spitting out cooler, drier air into the upper atmosphere. , at this point in its development, the storm system operates like a huge "heat engine."
"The 'heat engine' gets its energy from warm, humid air over the tropical ocean and releases this heat through the condensation of water vapor," . This energy release is what drives the powerful winds of a hurricane.


Hurricanes are often accompanied by severe flooding. The force of the release is tremendous—the amount of heat energy released by an average hurricane is equivalent to the amount of electric energy produced by the U.S. in an entire year. A small portion of the energy released actually warms what has become the inner core of the storm. As the temperature of the air in the inner core rises, its pressure drops, increasing the speed and intensity of the winds swirling around it. These stronger winds bring more warm, moist air to the clouds surrounding the inner core of the storm further fueling its energy. When the swirling winds reach a speed of 74 miles per hour or more, the tropical storm becomes a hurricane.

Once a storm officially becomes a hurricane, it receives an intensity rating based on its wind speed and potential to cause damage. As a hurricane develops, its intensity rating often changes. ICategory Once hurricanes have wind speeds between 74 and 95 miles per hour and are expected to cause minimal damage to buildings and homes. Trees, shrubbery and mobile homes tend to bear the brunt of the damage caused by Category One hurricanes.






With wind speeds reaching 100 miles per hour, this is typical of a Category Two storm. Category Three and Four hurricanes are characterized by even stronger winds and much more damage to homes, buildings and trees.
The most intense classification of a storm is the Category Five hurricane. A Category Five storm will have sustained winds of 155 miles per hour or more and is capable of extensive damage. The inner core of the hurricane is known as the eye of the storm—a calm, often clear-skied patch where winds are lightest and pressure is lowest. Surrounding the paradoxically calm region of the hurricane is a ring of clouds called the eye wall. The eye wall clouds are thunderstorm clouds, and it is in this region of the hurricane where the heaviest rains and winds originate. The outermost ring of the hurricane is made up of bands of heavy rains that swirl inward toward the storm's center, called spiral rain bands.

While the clouds and rain bands are forming in the sky above, the weather on the land below the hurricane turns nasty. The spiraling winds that accompany hurricanes can extend even further beyond the eye of the storm. Typically, hurricanes are about 300 miles wide, so they can affect fairly large areas at one time.
Unfortunately for those in its path, a hurricane's speed of travel is hard to predict and varies greatly from storm to storm. Weather experts have calculated that hurricanes move forward at an average speed of 15-20 miles per hour, but a big storm also has the potential to linger over one area for a while, causing torrential rains, or move so quickly that there is no time to prepare for its arrival.


Eventually, a hurricane's energy begins to dissipate and the storm weakens. Weather experts have identified several factors that contribute to a hurricane's demise, including the storm's movement over cooler water or drier areas. Even when a hurricane appears to have blown over, however, it can potentially re intensify if it hits weather conditions that are favorable for its development.


Every year between June 1 and November 30 (commonly called hurricane season), hurricanes threaten the ­eastern and gulf coasts of the United States, Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean. In other parts of the world, the same types of storms are called typhoons or cyclones. Hurricanes wreak havoc when they make landfall, and they can kill thousands of people and cause billions of dollars of property damage when they hit heavily ­populated areas.

Gas Prices on the Rise!

I suppose if you have not looked lately you did not see that the price of gas goes up every other week, and keeps reaching record highs. Over an over again we keep complain about when is it going to stop! The candidates whether they are democrats or republicans are not making the economy a number 1 priority, currently the war is. The United States have fallen into a recession. Yet we keep extending our hand to other countries trying to help them resolve their issues. So what do they do for us after we help them with their problems? Absolutely nothing!

Hey here is an ideal we are over in Iraq making that country free of dictatorship, why not make the country pay us back for the cost of liberating them from the torture chambers of Saddam Hussein. Iraq's sustainable oil production capacity is almost 3 million barrels per day. The earth beneath Iraqi sands holds more than 112 billion barrels of oil – the world's second largest proven reserves – and unexplored regions could yield an additional 100 billion barrels, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration. Iraq also contains 110 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. And yet this war has nearly bankrupted our treasury.
The Republicans continue to pump money from American taxpayers to support this unpopular war instead of pumping Iraqi oil. We have spent 500 billion, half a trillion dollars so far on making the Sunni triangle safe for democracy, but it hasn't even kept our own soilders safe. The month that President Bush was sworn into office, gas was $1.30 a gallon. This week, gas is averaging $3.30 a gallon, and near $5 a gallon in Los Angeles. Two dollars a gallon more for the war on terror! Make the Iraqis foot the bill for their own liberation!
When the Republican Party stops depleting the tax base for this endless war, Iraq's oil can be used to rebuild their country and pay us back. Now it is time for the 24 million liberated Iraqis to pay back their liberators. With the one resource they have – oil.

Something to make you think

One day, when I was a freshman in high school, I saw a kid from my class was walking home from school. His name was Kyle. It looked like he was carrying all of his books. I thought to myself, "Why would anyone bring home all his books on a Friday? He must really be a nerd." I had quite a weekend planned (parties and a football game with my friend tomorrow afternoon), so I shrugged my shoulders and went on. As I was walking, I saw a bunch of kids running toward him. They ran at him, knocking all his books out of his arms and tripping him so he landed in the dirt. His glasses went flying, and I saw them land in the grass about ten feet from him. He looked up and I saw this terrible sadness in his eyes. My heart went out to him.

So, I jogged over to him and as he crawled around looking for his glasses, and I saw a tear in his eye. As I handed him his glasses, I said, "Those guys are jerks. They really should get lives." He looked at me and said, "Hey thanks!" There was a big smile on his face. It was one of those smiles that showed real gratitude. I helped him pick up his books, and asked him where he lived. As it turned out, he lived near me, so I asked him why I had never seen him before. He said he had gone to private school before now. I would have never hung out with a private school kid before. We talked all the way home, and I carried his books. He turned out to be a pretty cool kid. I asked him if he wanted to play football on Saturday with my friends and me. He said yes. We hung all weekend and the more I got to know Kyle, the more I liked him. And my friends thought the same of him. Monday morning came, and there was Kyle with the huge stack of books again. I stopped him and said, "Hey boy, you are going to really build some serious muscles with this pile of books everyday!"

He just laughed and handed me half the books. Over the next four years, Kyle and I became best friends. When we were seniors, we began to think about college. Kyle decided on Georgetown, and I was going to duke. I knew that we would always be Friends, that the miles would never be a problem. He was going to be a Doctor, and I was going for business on a football scholarship. Kyle Was valedictorian of our class? I teased him all the time about being a Nerd. He had to prepare a speech for graduation. I was so glad it Wasn’t me having to get up there and speak. Graduation day, I saw Kyle. He looked great. He was one of those guys that really found him during high school. He filled out and actually looked good in glasses. He had more dates than me and all the girls loved him! Boy, sometimes I was jealous. Today was one of those days. I could see that he was nervous about his speech. So, I smacked him on the back and said, "Hey, big guy, you'll be great!" He looked at me with one of those looks (the really grateful one) and smiled.

"Thanks," he said. As he started his speech, he cleared his throat, and began. "Graduation is a time to thank those who helped you make it through those tough years. Your parents, your teachers, your siblings, maybe a coach... but mostly your friends. I am here to tell all of you that being a friend to someone is the best gift you can give him or her. I am going to tell you a Story." I just looked at my friend with disbelief as he told the story of the first day we met. He had planned to kill himself over the weekend. He talked of how he had cleaned out his locker so his Mom wouldn't have to do it later and was carrying his stuff home. He looked hard at me and gave me a little smile. "Thankfully, I was saved. My friend saved me from doing the unspeakable." I heard the gasp go Through the crowd as this handsome, popular boy told us all about his weakest moment. I saw his Mom and dad looking at me and smiling that same grateful smile. Not until that moment did I realize its depth. Never underestimate the power of your actions. With one small gesture you can change a person's life. For better or for worse. God puts us all in each other's lives to impact one another in some way.

No Arms or Legs

This is Nick Vujicic, he as given over 1,600 speeches and traveled to 12 nations. Nicks story caught my attention not because of what he had done, but how he is doing it. He is amazing not because he has no arms or legs, but because he is inspiring thousands of people as a evangelist and corporate motivational speaker. He fills stadiums with tens of thousands of people wanting to hear his words.

Nick said when he was younger his mother told him that when people start to stare to speak, and thats just what he has been doing. At 17 he started speaking at groups, at 19 he received dozens of invitations to speak.

Nick is 25 has bought a home in Southern California and started a non-profit organization called "Life with out Limbs". Within the last 6 months his staff has grown from 3 to 10 people and he has a personal assistant that helps him with his daily routine.

Everyday at some point in time we hear these words coming from somones mouth " I can'nt do it"! So lets drop the pity party and stand up.

Nick says people relate to him not because they have no arms or legs, but because they understand about being alone, confused and he rejected.

So the reason that I put this story together is not to show you what Nick can do, but to give us all inspiration, to do anything that we chose to do!
