So.. I went to church this morning. :) Yes, I, Judy, went to church. Lol. I'm not even gonna front, I haven't been to church in.. a year? year and a half? smh. Should I just say.. A long ass time. Lol. It feels good to finally get back into church. My main reason was, "Oh, it's too early, I don't have time." I dedicate so much time to school and work, why not an hour and a half, ONCE a week to the ONLY man who's always going to be there for me no matter what? I'm not what you would call 'religious' but God is always first in my book. :) I finally decided to put all my problems in His hands and stopped worrying about it. God won't put an obstacle in front of me that he can't get me through. Life is so much better. Everything has looked up. My mom, little sister and I have a stronger bond than ever, love (or getting there) is going smoothly, school is easy, money is no problem, I still can't sleep at night though. I think it's bc I have insomnia. Lol.
"The first thing I'd do as president is sign the Freedom of Choice Act. That's the first thing that I'd do." -- Senator Barack Obama
Okay so my last post was basically all for Obama. In church this morning, the priest brought up the subject of FOCA, the Freedom of Choice Act. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for freedom of choice, but to a certain extent. If you're sick, or either you or the baby are going to die if you don't abort, then go for it. But knowing the consequences of your actions - that having sex can AND will eventually lead to a baby - and you don't "want" it, or it's not "the right time", and you get rid of the child? There ARE options. These days, if you're SURE you don't want to keep it, have it, you don't have to go through the adoption papers, you can leave the child at a fire station or at a hospital. This act is basically stating that the people are going to pay taxes so that a mother can have an abortion. Wait. So you want me to pay FOR a girl to kill her baby? No, thank you. FOCA will strike down other laws,both state and federal, that reduce abortions, and will force states to make abortion an easy task. If FOCA is passed, it would mean 125,000 more abortions in the US per year.
My roomie is pregnant, my friend is pregnant, and so is three of my co-workers. Four out of six is getting rid of the baby. -sighs. It's sad.
That's all.

amen on this post,preach on sista
Hi, Haven't heard about the FOCA but the choice to have an abortion or not well I think that we need to stay out of peoples biz. If a Woman has it and she's unmarried, young and still in school, somebodies always got something to say, if she poor ditto, but if she aborts it because she's in school or poor then she's immoral. Are you kidding.
Rule 1. If you have sex there is a possibility that you will create a life! So we need to temper ourselves.
Come visit with me! Having an arguement with RIPPa who doesnt agree with me that the slinky is the single greatest invention of the 20th century! Need you to chime in.

YAY church.. can't say i done that lately.. ha i might just start when i get to VA .. lol.. ahh.. then i'll have excuses.. SMH but good for you judy..
ahhh four out of the six wants to get rid of the baby? that is sad.. I heard of the FOCA a while back i was not so fond of it because there are already so much children up for adoption and they are not getting homes... but then that is better then killing the baby just because you don't want the baby or you know you are not ready for it.. these babies should have the chance to live life and prove to their parents that there is a reason why they were born.. but come one like seriously BC or rubber simple.. or just dont have sex so much.. =| .. it is not gonna hurt..
I'm proud that you went to church. I myself have gotten back in to church. I'm taking adult RCIA classes and will be attending EVERY Tuesday thank you :P Ok well I just have to say AHHHHH! to the FOCA crap. I'm a mom and to think that I will be paying for women to kill their children is absurd and REALLY pisses me off. I signed the petition girl. Thanks for this post. We all needed to read something like this. It's reality and it sucks.
I couldn't agree with you more. I feel that it would be so easy to just leave the baby at the hospital, but a lot of teen girls wanna hide the pregnancy. If only they could've been more selfish when it came to sex a child would be the last thing to worry about.
