4      Love is always patient;13

love is always kind;

      love is never envious

or arrogant with pride.

      Nor is she conceited,

5            and she is never rude;

      she never thinks just of herself

or ever get annoyed.

      She never is resentful;

6            is never glad with sin,

      but always glad to side with truth,

whene'er the truth should win.

7      She bears up under everything,

believes the best in all,

      there is no limit to her hope,

and she will never fall.

I remember when I watched A Walk to Remember, when Mandy Moore recited that whole verse to Shane West.  I really thought that it was the most precious thing to say to any

one.  I really thought it was.  At that time, I was about 11.  I didn't know what it really did meant besides love is so many things that we can interpret differently.  

Now, I know what it meant.  That verse has probably been one of the strongest verse besides John 3:16 that I will cherish.  Love can go beyond our reach.  It's never stops.  It continues to grow as we began to grow ourselves.

I really do have to think that movie for such an inspiration.  I really want to thank Nicholas Sparks for creating such a strong message.  I don't know how he does it.  I've been a huge fan of him since reading The Wedding.  I really don't think that any author can beat him into this genre.

Do You Just Belong?

Do You Just Belong?
Are you an active member, the kind that would be missed?
Or are you contented that your name is on the list?
Do you attend the meetings and mingle with the flock?
Or do you stay at home and criticize and knock?
Do you ever go and visit a member that is sick?
Or leave the work to just a few and talk about the clique?
There's quite a program scheduled that I'm sure you've heard about.
And we will appreciate it if you'll come and help with hand and heart
Don't be just a member, dig in and do your part.
Think this over member - you know right from wrong.
Are you an active member, or do you just belong?

After the Chapter had a huge vent discussion about our concerns and conflicts, I feel like there is still no hope for the Chapter itself to get better.  Let's be honest, we all hate each other still.  That's okay, but have respect to save face.  It's not worth the drama.  I know.  This drama is nothing but hatred, jealousy, and trying to be center of attention.  One, I don't care what people say.  Two, I know who I am.  Three, these people don't know who they really are. 

It's sad that it had to come to this.  People say that they don't have a problem with anyone else.  Good for them.  I've felt that what people said last night have really show their true colors. Some even have talk one on one to the person about their issues. It's the start of healing, but the scars will always remain there.

I do hope that Phi Mu will have the courage to face any obstacles.

 "We are not human beings on a spiritual journey.  We are spiritual beings on a human journey."-Stephen R. Covey

This quote is sto true to think about.  It almost feels like this journey is what it is meant to be.  We, as the soul have the intention to change our journey with choices and sacrifices.  We learn from right and wrong.  We learn from actions to our consequences.  I couldn't really believe that maybe this is what life is about.

         "Sisterhood is not letting petty differences get in the way of anything. It is about being true to yourself. It is about experiencing new adventures by entering the realm of others."

This quote says it all.  Not to be rude, not to be mean, we girls need to realize that no one is perfect.  Even when they are acting like they're perfect, they are not, inside and out.  It's ashamed that our chapter have so many differences towards one another.  That no one actually loves them as a sister but more as a foe.  We need to find ourselves why we join Phi Mu.  Right now, it's dysnfucntional, hell, and filled with hatred.  This has to stop.  This has got to end.

We have lost so many people this year with tragic death.  So many lives have been taken.  Car accidents, sucidial, fatal death, so much. 

Life is too short to be this way.  Life is too precious to hate each other.  That's okay if you hate someone.  At least show them that you have respect of one another.  It's very important to settle your differences and your judgments, but don't ever back stabbed someone that you might need.

I think that what's is wrong with our sorority sisters.  Yes, we are women.  This is too many estrogens for me.  We need to grow up.  We need to realize that we have to be the person that we are today.  Forget the past and go towards the future.

We have all say that we have such a good sisterhood.  What sisterhood do we have?  All we have is hatred to one another.  We need to love each other.  We are sisters.  We need to help one another, lend a helping hand.  Voices need to be heard.  Voices need to be said. 

We are not perfect.  I'm not perfect.  I know that.  Why do others think of that?  Come on ladies.

I hope that these ladies will change their ways of how they think.  I hope that these women will mature themselves to become better women.
