NOW for some details! Sooo life has been good overall ;)
Of course there has been some major ups and downs but it is amazing to see how the Lord works...

Graduation is coming up on the 4th, I have to say a speach that have wrote and I need to wear that rediculous looking cap and gown!! ERG!>!>!>! I thought I would post my speech on here just to see what yall thought.



SPEECH
Good evening, I want to thank yall for coming. I know that everyone has things to do so I am going to keep this short and sweet. I would like to start by reading a short poem titled "Four Things"
Four things a man must strive to do if he wishes to make his goals true: To think without confusion clearly; To love his fellow men sincerely; To act from honest motives purely; To trust in God and Heaven securely.
I am very thankful to say that every graduate standing here with me has trusted God with their life. There has been plenty of ups and downs in all of our lives and it is so comforting to be able to go to God and lay our troubles at his feet.
In 2006 I was attending Lq Quinta high school and not living my life as a christian should. I was still in church but that didnt matter, I had my own motives and there wasnt anything that was going to stop me. A ways into the 2007 year I received the news.......we were moving! I have to be honest, I hated the thought of it, but after much debate and long talks I realized that it was the final decision.After moving here to Yucca Valley I started attending church here at Calvary and it was amazing how quickly my life changed. I was no longer listening to the same music or watching the same shows and I definitely had better influences in my life. It was then that I truly gave my life to the Lord and started following him. Its amazing how I can look back and see how he has used people and events to change me and draw me closer to him and I am very grate full for that.
Apart from serving God I plan on going to college and getting a degree. I am starting school in the fall and I will be working towards becoming a Fire fighter paramedic. After college I plan on getting married and raising a family of my own for the Bible says in Ephesians 5:31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife,and they two shall be one flesh. Now I do find the next verse kinda Ironic..Ephesians 5:32For this is a great mystery; but I speak concerning Christ and the church.
Now I have stood up here and explained my past and even my future, but there is no way I could be here if it wasnt for the people that God brought into my life. First and for most is my family, I couldnt even survive if it wasnt for them keeping me in check and I definitely couldnt be the young man standing up hereif it wasnt for their wisdom and their guidance. My grandparents, even though they live on the other side of the country they always have an open ear and loving words of encouragement. I also want to thank them for flying out to be with us tonight, it means an awful lot to me. I would also like to thank my Pastor for being the Godly man that he is and for being willing to listen to me even when it pertains to youth relationships. Next I would like to thank my church in whole for being so loving and full of compassion. My youth pastor, Mr. Purdy has always been there to check in on me on a regular basis and that means allot knowing that someone cares. Next I would like to thank my bosses Mr. and Mrs. Lapp who really have treated me more like a grand kid than anything else. They have both showed me what it means to work and how to have fun doing it, not to mention the amazing horsemanship that I have learned from them. Last but defiantly not least is my friends, they ALL have had an huge impact in my life and I wouldnt have made it this far without them. Again I want to thank each and every one of you for coming to our graduation and being apart of the beginning of the next phase in our lives.
Well folks there you have it...=)
I got a new horse is trainer his name is Katami..he is a gated horse (fox trotter) WOW is he amazing. Other than the fact he tried bucking me off he is the smoothest horse I have ever ridden! Of course thats because of the fact he is gated....but still it was amazing!
Fire Fighting is going great, I start college in August so that will be nice and scary. I will have to take college math, english an a word comp. class before I can start my fire tech and science classes. Then I will be doing a combination of Fire academies and EMT classes. After that is done I wil do my Paramedic and then be done!! woot! Of course y'all know the next step....GETTING MARRIED....oh yeah...I know I know I got a few years but still....I can look to the future right...!?!?!
I am continuing Judo (Brazilian Jujitsu) it is becoming even more intense! I am hoping to be in a full contact MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) fight by winter time...Im doing a ton of training and am hoping that injuries stay at bay...its the one thing that could prevent future tournaments. Thanks to James for being my teacher and sparing partner!
