My Good Meme Interview

1. Who or what inspired you to start blogging? Was it a whim, or a carefully thought out leap?

After I took dialogue journal with my Language Arts teacher before class at 9am in my late 90s middle school, it inspires me to start writing my own journal. I also took a reading log for English class called “The Diary of a Young Girl” story about Anne Frank wrote her diary for two years during her hiding times at home in The Secret Annex in World War II in 1942 to 1944. And Anne Frank had inspired me to start writing my own diary. I have been writing diary for many years until my baby was in my womb, I started writing my diary, the letters to him. See my other blog post about it at https://liveloi.home.blog/2020/04/30/to-my-dear-leo-diary/.

I started my own blog about my lifestyle story and my poetic life. Live Loi is my pen name for my art and poetry.

2. What bloggers inspire you now? Why?

I have a list of some bloggers who inspired me on my phone note. Ann Voskamp is my special spiritual inspiration. Her story is all about her life at her farm house with her farming husband and seven children. And about her faith in Christ Jesus. I love reading her holy experience blog. If any of you are a follower of Christ, starting with Ann Voskamp. She is sharing her holy experience with you.

I am inspired by personal stories, fashion, beauty, lifestyle, recipes, biblical posts, prayer requests, photographs, and thrifty life.

3. What subjects do you enjoy writing about most? What subjects are the easiest?

I love to write about what on my mind for a day and the clothes that I wear.

The easiest subject to write about is my baby Leo.

4. If you could pick only one post to print, frame, and say, “That’s me,” what would it be?

My 2014 journal

Wednesday, January 1, 2014

Today is the New Year, 2014! Wow! Where does the time go? Okay, I am going to write this new journal for 2014. Its help me to express my feeling. If I do not express, then I become isolated. So I should write how I feel and what happen to me in society. I plan to tell people how I feel and they should understand my feeling. But the most TOP understood is JEHOVAH. He is with me. Because of He understands my situation better than human.

Today I am going to write from the beginning to the end of this new journal early 2014 or middle 2014. That journal is the approximately 100 pages. These 2014 memories are I want to remember. I throw the old past, 2013. But, I can keep some good 2013 memories.

Okay, I hope a thing goes well with you. Have the good 2014! Yours, Loiriam

5. What is your favorite flavor of cheesecake?

With strawberry, yummy.

Will I homeschool my boy? Um… I hope so. Why? Because of I enjoyed my school life and still do my homeschooling life. So I will want to homeschool him.

“Homeschooling is different for me know because I am experienced and more confident.”-Donna Boucher

My character has changed a lot since the birth of my son.

I think I was impatient and kind of grumpy in certain situations.

I lost my control more easily than I do now. I’m seeing my therapist…

I had some wrong views about Christianity…and life…and love…

With the help of God, I have gotten through some difficult circumstances, and have a better transition of what I believe; learning God’s Word has given me peace and joy in my circumstances. As I feel relief when it comes to the beautiful biblical verse “I am [Jesus is] the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me [Jesus Christ].” So, I don’t have to go to church, but I can come over for only special occasions.

I can’t be rigid now. If Leo still stays up past 8:00 it does bother me as much, but I can’t show him how I feel. Because of he is still a baby. He is still on baby level, not yet going to preschool, kindergarten. So… a mom is a mom. That’s my mommy life.

Man. I am not an attentive. But I must keep my eyes awake on Leo to ensure that he not get hurt.

Perhaps this is not the answer you are looking for, but I am honest with you.

Love Will Find You

You expect someone will love you and will marry you, and stay with you forever. And will enjoy company with you, share with your interests, and sense an affection with you. Then you realize that nothing happens in your life. It’s a love at first sight.

There are many fishes in the sea and you have a hard time to find the one who your real love is. Plus, many times you feel that love can’t find you. But love can find you when you stop searching for someone who will love you. You just get to control the feeling for someone. Love is not jealous. And when you see the romantic couples holding the hands, staring at each other affectionately, embracing each other and kissing each other, you feel jealous, and wishing you have someone that like you and love you. You learn how to deal with jealous, and love yourself first. Do not agonize on how low you are when you can’t find someone who like you and love you. Love will find you when you love yourself first.

Do not be feeling of rejection. Think about the goals that you plan. If you have goals, then you have the future. One young woman speaks of herself as hurt because of feeling rejected. “I can only be a ‘Hi, how are you?’ person now,” she says. “I am not letting any person get close to me.” The deeper the commitment you feel is rejected. Don’t be that way. It’s someone’s loss for not seeing you in his or her life.

Yes, indeed, the freedom to romance whom you wish carries a heavy price tag: rejection. There is no guarantee that a true love will grow on your tree. So if someone began courting you with honest intentions but later on nothing happen in your life, you will feel unfair. You deal with unfair is not necessarily. Let it go. It’s his or her loss.

The problem is, even when you expect someone will be honest with you, but lie to you, you will feel rejected and hurt. No reason to lose you, but that is happening. The fact that you are wrong in someone’s eyes does not mean that you will be wrong in the eyes of someone’s else!

Try not to feel like you are a defunct person. You are loved! And loss will turn to be nothing is happening. Because love will find you when you love yourself first. And someone will involve your life – maturity, good intentions, flexibility, tolerance, consideration for your feelings. These are not hardly desirable qualities in a marriage mate.

What if love find you and you will have a marriage mate in your life? Certainly you are happy with someone who like you and love you. Perhaps a true love will grow on your tree if the two of you will last forever. Regrets nothing with you accomplish of love and marriage. But remember that the world is imperfect where you live, and if your courtship will fall apart, there is no need to humiliate yourself, tearfully begging for someone that have no affections and no feelings for you. Solomon said, …a time to keep, and a time to cast away.-Ecclesiastes 3:6.

Do not suspect at someone who used you for not having a sincere interest in marrying you. And do not be his or her avenger. It’s his or her loss. Be assured that God notices his or her dishonesty. God says, …cruel troubleth his own flesh.-Proverbs 11:17; also read Proverbs 6:12-15.

From time to time you may still be tormented by hopeless and loneliness for not having a real love in your life. It’s happening. It’s okay for you to have a good cry. It also helps you to get busy, and stay strong. Talk to your family or friend(s) you trust, go out to fun activities or the Christian missionary. Keep your mind positive. (Philippians 4:8) Be confident in your close friend. (Proverbs 18:24) Your parents are also being of great comfort, even you feel you are old enough to follow your own rules. (Proverbs 23:22) But the most important thing is, be confident in the LORD.

You may need to work on your personality and someone to see you in your life. Your dream of marriage may be coming true. And having loved and lost, you handle courtship a bit more prudently should a desirable person come along again – the likelihood of which you may be greater than you expect.

The Lord is Generous

My Heavenly Father,

I am thankful for finding you. You are my Lord. Because of you are different from Satan. Thus, I want to imitate your example.

Father, you are loved, generous and given. You gives me the Life for producing food, water, tree, air, etc. to live well and breathe. You had miracle and healed the sick people. You wants me and the people to enjoy Life.

Father, you have taught me how to be a generous lady to the needs of people. You taught me how to give, and not how to demand as selfish. Lord, you tells me to give; giving people the gifts make me happy.

I hope the small children who are your followers continue to be trained on how to be happy to give people than to be selfishly to demand. Forgive the greedy people who are regretting and adjusting to a better way. As I forgive people who took advantage of my wealth. I’m giving up my wealth for I give the gifts to the needs of people.

Thank you for spiritual food, and for hearing my prayer through your Son’s name Jesus Christ. Amen.

My Life is Unfair

Today is the history of women. I want to discuss about how I feel about my life is unfair.

This morning I prayed to the Lord with shedding my tears about what happened to me in the last year. I was forced to leave my hometown for one of the immigrants (a man who is from Cuba still live in my hometown and is my former landlord since fall of 2019), some people of different states and no one has helping me to find a new apartment. These are how wrongful they are!

My former landlord evicted me in the fall of 2019 when I was pregnant with my son, Leo. Because of he was complained about the damages that I didn’t do but my baby’s father. So I lost my security deposit. And I do not think I will be able to get a new apartment. But I think I will need to save money for the house. And perhaps I won’t have to worry about landlord hassling me.

And, about other people who claim Christian. They trashed me to the women’s shelter, and my unborn son and I were almost beat up by an angry woman. And my brother knew what happened. He was very angry with me. He dragged me down to Florida against my will, and my emotional sister sent me to the wrong children’s hospital. My son and I were almost killed by the devil young midwife. Thankfully we are alive. If I have not posting “I’m homeless” on Facebook in the first place, my son would have been born in my hometown naturally. And so that these so called Christian people wouldn’t have known mine and my baby’s father’s business. Sad that I made the huge mistake of posting that. And going to the wrong church, too. I believe that the church is not a place for judging the members. Only God can judge the people. So I decided to choose worshipping the Lord at home.

Recently a week ago Sunday I learned the term “testimony”. It makes me want to keep in prayer and to receive the answer.

My Reflection

I haven’t been blogging for a while since I posted about the water stuff. Now I’m blogging about my reflection of why I feel so stressful. There’s no peace, I only pray for I need to live in a quiet place with my son. It’s hard because my money is tight and I am unable to be a homeowner. I want my baby to be happy. It’s important. I made the huge mistake of who I associate with. As I thought they do follow the truth. Now I have to take care of myself and my baby. I’m teaching him the value of who his friends are.

Tomorrow’s a new month, March. What do I plan? I will post on what is on my mind.
