Doggy Joy


I took this picture of samson last week sometime. I am so happy that my wife had a doggy before we got hitched because then he became my doggy too. You know, he brings so much joy into life(other then when he pees or poops on the floor or when it comes time to walk him outside..lol) When life gets hard and difficult you look at him and he just cheers you up. He is so cute, he does some of the funniest things too. Like when you are sitting on the couch, if there is even a hint of dead space he will try to jump in between like you and the pillow because he thinks he can fit in there. He is overall just pleasant to have around. Sometimes i wish i could be like him though too. Think about it? You get up, cheer humans up when they are having a bad day, play with your toys, eat, drink, use the bathroom, rest through the day, and then go to sleep at night. If only life were that easy..lol. See me and the wife right now are in the midst of making some really hard choices, but the other day she said something that her dad stands by. When it comes to money, this place is not our home, its just money. Its really true though, i mean i know the sermon that God wants us to take care of our money and everything ..i know i know, but really the worst part about money is it puts so much tension and stress on our lives. Our marriages. Our Lives. Our walks with God. Its not worth it really, honestly. I mean two months ago amber and I had things figured out, then bam she has no job. Its not really the finaces i have the problem with as much as some of the people and everything that is involved and how the situation was handled. But due to that situation now finances are tight. But i have had a lot of peace about things here recently, that it really doesnt matter God is in control and he will provide. Its hard to keep positve when literally EVERYTHING goes not like you expect it, or everything just keeps going wrong. Money is just paper, its temporary. You have it, and then its gone. God is permanent, even when your upset at things happening in life. And i have to re-realize that. We'll see what happens with everything. Do i think its fair that we have gone thru all of this, this early in our marriage or lives? No not at all, but we will get through this. Gods funds do not empty out just because things go wrong. I love samson, he always makes me want to be relaxed, and when im relax i can communicate with God.
