This blog is going to be a free write. I have so much on my mind but I really don't know how to type it out. Last few days have been a challenge. You set so many goals up for yourself and you try to every single one and it becomes challenging. Hope you guys are really trying to try the challenges I throw out there for yeah. I promise you it makes you feel so good inside. Once you have gotten past the awkward stage things start to really open up for you. I really do believe in whatever good you do that something good will come out of it. Whether that be helping a friend pay for his dinner or what not that money will come back to you maybe even double of that money. I have really realized the more generous you are the more people start to see it and repay you. It's really cool how life can work that way.
Recently I have been doing a lot of chores for my dad around the house so it can speed up of me paying off my truck. Well one of these chores is painting these really light shelves. Now I have to paint them black. Now when you are trying to make a really bright color turn to a really dark color it is easy to see the mistakes. This isn't the point though. The big picture of it all is when your done and your cleaning off your brush. Now picture the brush that has the black paint on it as your heart. Let's say you just keep making mistakes and you just keep messing up every corner you turn. Well now your trying to make up for those mistakes as yourself as a human. I still to this day have black paint on those brushes, because we as humans cannot physically or mentally wipe away those mistakes or sins. No matter how hard you try to hide it those little marks will always be there. Therefore there must be a bigger power above us right????? Let's not be blind but see. Let's not walk around darkness like a dumb blind bat but turn on our iphone apps that is a flashlight so that we may see.
That is my little story for the day and just something I was thinking about as my hands were cramping from painting some freaking shelves. =) I hope you guys are having a really good week. If not just remember there is always another week ahead of you. Try to keep the smile on your face and try and not make it fake. To be honest you can totally tell if it's a fake smile rather than a real one. Tomorrow is my birthday and Kristi has me busy busy this weekend so another blog probably won't be coming up till next week. Thank you guys again for reading and staying in touch it really means a lot and I hope you guys are getting something out of it. Maybe your starting to see things from different views... I don't know. Be careful this weekend and if your under 21 please refrain from getting drunk. For all of you who can get drunk please I encourage you not to drive. You could save someones life for not driving this weekend. Really do love you guys. If you have anything you want to talk about or get off your chest just email me: brownau18@yahoo.com or even better contact me on my facebook. I always check that sucker.
This is it for not keep checking in and maybe one of these blogs will be perfect for you. Remember throw me your ideas of what you want me to write on next. My brain can only come up with so much.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts Austin. It's awesome how God uses random events (like painting for you, or fighting for me) to teach us things. It's even more awesome when other people are blessed by us sharing those things, even if its one person its worth the time to write it down.
