How far can you go...

So many times we put limits on how far a single item or human being can venture. Tonight or today while i was going for a stroll to our local 24/7 gas station "Food Mart" i started to make a list of how far one thing could go, let it be your body or a friendship now it's time to put list to paper or in this case virtual space!!

Your legs will only walk as far as you lead them

Your friends only treat you as well as you treat them

Your parents will only sympathsize as much as you prove your self worthy

Your car will only travel as far as the amount of. Gas is givin

Your wife/girlfriend will only show as much love as you show them

Your medicine will only take away your pain/sickness for the moment

The devil will only win the battles you allow him to

God will always give us love,Joy,Peace, Patience,kindness,goodness,faithfulness,gentalness, self control......always!

Thank you lord for making each and every day a new and letting your glory shine down on us and even though I portray a sinful person you still love me give me strength to be a better me. give me the heart to love every one with an open mind and heart!!!

Snow (and the things it brings)

Cold, White, flake, Packable, moist warm air (where you can see your breath). All these things are thing that occurs when it snows but do we ever look past the simplicity of it being snow...do we see some times think that's how our life began. The reference of purity is compared the color white and how plain and clean it is for artist the purest thing they can touch is there Canvus before they start to put color's upon it. for humans it's birth there is nothing more pure than an infant the moment it comes out of the womb it than is tamped with starting off disconnecting of the umbilical cord from the mother it now must either be force fed though tubes or fed into there mouth. your probably thinking..where is he going with this. well last night i bundled up and went for very long winters walk just looking at the snow and thinking about many things. I have always gone though my whole day how can i make someone else happy and I'm not saying that is a bad thing but when in gets in the way of who you are as a person or where you feel you should be in your life, i think that is a haul ting point. when snow is moved walked in it loses it's purity. it gets rocks in it it's gets shoveled and piled up. i feel like at times i do that with my problems i push them around pile them up some times even just.....keep walking over them. At times i think oh with time they'll go away. I think maybe my feelings will change on this matter but not even i can change that. many things are ingrained in my head from...well possible time of comprehension. many times we she change and it is good, but i feel the biggest thing that I've decided i need in these changes in these growing times are just that pushing and pulling doesn't help you can always ask for help. for me this help comes from god and the people that he's put into my life. i started to listen to this song written and sung by Charlie hall.

We'll here goes nothing

So i don't know if i'm the only one that notices this but blogging it does take a small bit of thought. Even if i want to talk about say...chickens in the whole post it does take maybe a little reasearch or maybe just honestly a little bit of skills in the BS department but the last few days my brain has been DEAD. so....We'll here goes nothing. Last post i talked about my family and just a brief update on whats going on in my life. but i think i want to rewind a bit to introduce you to some people that i didn't mention in my last post. I've always had a way of making new friends let it be on the playground, Church, or even in the lunch room sitting at some random table. i might not have always been the coolest kid in school but i sure was talkative which could be a good or a bad thing. Starting my first day at my new church was almost a complete fail but let's just say i have the 3 best friends ever. i walked into a room that had 15 kids with this massive retainer in my mouth were you could barley understanding what i was saying also had tang mustache who were around the same age as me but Stephan, Caleb and William all where the first to scope out my nerdy slash awesomeness. These guys have been beside me thorough a lot been in two of there wedddings and Couldn't ask for 3 better friends. Ok we can jump forward to the present. I must say my i really don't remember waking up and saying oh hey i want to be 22 but well here i am. live would be so much easier if i was like 3 again just kicking rocks. ok i think i'm startig to ramble so i'm off to bed :)

The Start

I Feel as a so called "Noob" to blogging i should introduce myself and give you a little back ground information about my self. My name is Phillip Hinshaw, i grew up in a small out in the middle of no where town named Sterling, KS. Where there is always something different to talk about when you sit down to have dinner, let it be who got in a fight today at school, what family split up, who is dating who, or even how you saw the kid in the third row pick his nose and flick it, which by the way wasn't me! I at one point in time had 4 parents my parents Divorced when i was 8 both remarried. My dad remarried to a lovely lady Darla who at times i wonder if she could get any shorter, oh well. My Mother remarried to a man named Joe. Lets just put it this way i have many more good things to say about Darla then i do about Joe ;). My dad is My best friend i trust him with my life we've had our struggles but honestly if you haven't had struggles with your parents then your life is kinda boring. I have 3 brothers Chris who is 25 and in the process of applying to different law school to get a degree in criminal law this guy would do anything for me even give me a crazy early birthday present :). Then there is Austin who is 16, going though high school for him should be a breeze but at times we all get distracted and distraught he'll make it though. Last but not least the baby Steven he's 13 just getting into his second semester of 7Th grade. i don't know if you remember 7Th grade i remember it being terrifying but just like Austin he'll get though. well enough about my family how about a little more about they this is about...Me. I've always been the kinda guy that could walk in to a room and just walk up to some one and introduce myself and just begin talking to a random stranger that i just met, the length of the conversation might very but never the less i would talk. I'm Currently living in the Town of Lawrence, Ks Home of the Jayhawks. I was enrolled at the university up till the end of this last fall semester. I've recently been hired on as a server at my Local Applebee's. Yes, I'm at that point in my life where i don't know what i want to do with my life soooo why not serve. I plan to return to my schooling sometime in the fall. Until then i will work and make my way out of some of the circumstances that i have put myself in.....a DUI :/ when life give you lemons make lemonade. well i fell like has given me a swift kick in the rear and it's yelling wake up time to see the judge...at least that's how I remember it. This is why i decided to name this blog Ramen and Easy mac Days cause I'm saving my money and that's all i can afford. My relationship with God is very important to me. i will be honest their have been times where i might start to venture away from God but he always draws me back in. At this moment in time I'm starting to relearn and love the man who first loved me. I'll leave you with this No matter who you are no matter where you been or how badly you feel you've messed up there is always some where to go and that's forward not always easy but forward you must go. :)
