Time to Shine!?!

Let God Shine!

Time to Shine!?!
Alicia Sansone

Sunday Was Easter! Everyone has a different outlook on it. The one thing most of us have in common is when our families gather together! Some go to the park for an Easter egg hunt, or have a family dinner, or maybe go to church. For me and my family we celebrate the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ! I know most people including myself have overlooked the true meaning of Easter! Not everything is about the items we get each other. No, it's about the thought we put into it and the way we express our feelings! Most importantly to praise our Lord for everything he has given us and done for us!



It's hard sometimes to be grateful for the bad things but the fact is, if we aren't grateful, then how will the bad things ever turn into something good? You can always have a rude comment in your head, but it's your choice to say it. Our car could break down on us, but we have the money in a fund, (for something more important). Why get so mad over that when it's replaceable? Words can be altered. So can our feelings. I have found out first hand that the bad things I say or even think changed my whole outlook on life. Why not try and make our thoughts pleasant? What's the harm? All it will do is make you feel so much better!



God Saved my soul, saved me from this world and gave me eternal life with him! One day I will be seated with him at his table! I can't thank him enough for his sacrifice! And that is the real meaning of Easter, showing God the glory!



Happy Easter Everyone!!

As frustrating and annoying as it can be, being a girl is really awesome. We are beautiful inside and out. Not a lot of people may see that, but girls have a ton of amazing qualities.

We have unique flirting skills.

Us girls have a significant way to flirt with other people. Even when we say the most random or awkward things, we have a way of making everything sound cute and planned. It’s just a gift; we’re good like that.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
