Invisible children

2009-04-14T11:15:00.000-07:00

Well, it is raining here in Florida today. Its crazy how many tornadoes and funnel clouds appear here. Other than that I got some decent rest, and now I am just hanging out, waiting for the rain to calm down. I have been writing a lot recently and stoked to bring it to the soundboard. Some cool things i have seen today that Aaron Gellespie posted were an organization for kids in other countries who are forced to go to war and slavery. These kids have no health care cards, birth certificates, or anything. They are taken from there parents at an early age. The organization is called Invisible Children and is extremely well put together. You can learn more at http://therescue.invisiblechildren.com/ . Now, I do not know if I will be attending the Orlando one here in Florida, or the one in Canada. Aaron will be attending the Orlando one, but chances are I will be in Canada. Anyways, check out the link, and see what you can do to help. There is some good information there and I'm sure you could do something there to make a difference of your own.

Why Hello Old Friends :)

Well, wow its been a while. I guess a lot has been going on, kind of weird stuff you might say. I am really starting to find myself. What I really want, what I don't really want, stuff like that. Also, my writing has been really painting more vivid pictures for the imagination. I guess my heart is starting to really pull through on its own. There are a few things I am going to be doing in the next little while. I will be writing small reviews on games, books, movies, and albums on arcticsunburn. I will also be doing something I really want to reignite in my life again, and that is following my heart, as much as I do my mind. I can make a promise that my future content, whether it be music, or something else, will be taking quite a big jump in heart and soul. I am exited to see what storms are a brewin' for my life, and they are going to be full of surprises, twists, and turns, but hopefully all for the best! God Bless to all, and have a very beautiful week. Ps. Florida is great, nice and warm, and happy Easter, go Jesus! xoxo

Sick.

Well, i have been brutally sick this weekend, and it has only gotten worse. Tomorrow is the going to be the best concert of my life and im not going to miss it for the world. Underoath and norma jean. Wow. Anyways, i ask for all your prayers so that i can get better not only for that, but for finishing up mid terms this upcoming week, and for playing music a bunch again this week. other than my own personal sobbing, i went to Edens birthday party last night, which was a good time. Good friends, games, you know. Afterwords i experienced a brief preview of nuclear winter. Couldn't even see the hood of the car all the way to Airdrie. It was an adventure. Anyways, i am very sick and my laptop screen is making me nautious, so i will end this post here. God bless and keep me in your prayers,

Tim

Dreaming

2009-03-03T13:29:00.000-08:00

Wow, Have i ever had a wacky day, spent in another world. My subconscious is really yapping at me. First of all, the roads were way to bad to go to school today, so i stayed home at the request of my mom. I managed to get some sleep today as well, but it was restless. I dreamed about a few things, first off, i dreamed that Underoath was opening for us at an arena, then they bailed because they had a show in Edmonton to attend to instead. I woke up, and was like....awwehhhhh! Lol but you all know that feeling... anyways, I then had a dream about a very old friend who hasn't been heard from by even her parents in more than a year, and i had a dream she was found and the first thing she did was come to my house, which was awesome, we kind of talked, i held onto her for dear life, like a love i didn't know i had for her... you never know it might have been the emotional stress of such an impacting dream. Anyways, everything is okay, she is okay, and all of the sudden i feel at peace with myself, like one hundred percent, after that a few weird dream things happen that i can barely remember, like we checked facebook or something... lol. Anyways, i woke up... and my heart, body, and soul dropped. like fell out of the sky. One of the saddest, worst, sickening feelings i have ever had. i immediately asked God to protect her, and to bring her home somehow, i messaged her, with the least bit of hope she has access to a computer, but i have an old friend from behind the mall that i think i will take a visit to because she was best friends with "dream girl", and she has an address that i can write to in order to contact her. For some reason i feel like she is in a horrible place right now, and needs help. I pray that God will carry her home, but it is scary and i swear, if i wasn't sleep deprived before, I'd be in for something now... I can just feel the tears... the tears in her eyes, scared, lost. Or maybe, its the opposite, maybe she is happy, free, conscious and drug free... odds are against it, but i can dream can't I? Lord knows im good at dreaming...

Life

2009-02-22T21:55:00.001-08:00

Life. Big word... pretty much describes everything and anything. i simply love it. i have decided i am going to change the world. i have decided with God, that the world isn't going to come to an end yet, not under our watch. It really has to change though, there is a lot about it that is disturbing, upsetting, disappointing, and or just simply, not right. but it is one hundred percent totally ok. Because we are going to change it. Its what i want to do, really! I simply love this world, i love you, i love God, i just love it, and i have decided to enjoy the journey to my destination, because that is what matters, and that is where the progress is. God told me everything is going to be ok, and it is going to be ok! i do a few things in my life that shape how amazing it is. number one, i live by the beat of my own drum, my own opinion, even though i am open one hundred percent to yours. Two, society is not healthy. I choose to never live a life where i have to work just to live, just to pay the bills, just to have some money in the bank in order to keep me going until i finally die. No. I have decided to explore Gods creations, and people, and i have decided that nothing is going to stop me from loving every bit of the good, and the bad, ill explain myself on that. The bad, why do i take it in a positive way? Because it teaches us lessons, and how boring would we be if we were perfect? God puts us through the bad in order to learn how to intake and cherish the good, amazing, and wonderful. My name is Tim Snelgrove, and me and you are going to change the world...

Happiness, its nothing you accomplish, its something you decide. I have realized that God really just gives us the option to be happy, filled with joy, no matter the situation! I mean, i have been sick for two days, out of order, and i am not looking forward to what i have missed in the real world and what im going to have to catch up on, but in the long run, its not that bad! I just have to keep on telling myself that because it is simply true.
So my point is, be happy. As stoner-ish as that sounds, we just have to, God wants us to love everyone around us, and my goodness, is it ever great! i see the hate within my friends and acquaintances, and the stress that is caused within them because of simply not being happy, and it is not worth it! so my main message in this blog is just live for the best, with the glass half full.

God Bless Everyone,

Tim :)
