Discrimination Against Kids

What's all this business of what age you are? Does age really matter that much? Ok, it matters a bit, but still.

We're all equals on this earth. I've always believed that. God didn't make us better than each other, he made us each good in our own way. yes, I'm saying you're awesome.

So, why all this judging? Why is it all, you're too young, you're too old, you're not smart, you're pretty? Why? have I just said that question over and over again?

I think it's sad when someone hides their age for fear of being judged. For people not taking them seriously about what they're saying. Why can't a kid or young teen know what they're talking about? I'm sure they do. Why can't they talk about what they believe, but older people can.

It comes down to people thinking that, 'they're older. They've lived longer, they must be right,' when in reality, they both could be right. Even if the kid said the same thing, they properly wouldn't be taken so seriously.

This is something which really annoys me and seems wrong to me. as you might have noticed. I don't like age discrimination. It's just as bad as other forms of discrimination, but it's not taken half as seriously. No one cares if kids are discriminated against. like WHAT?!

So here is what I'm begging, please, please don't be mean to kids. They maybe younger and everything, but they still know an awful lot. They have thoughts and feelings too.

You're hurting these kids by saying they don't know what they're saying, so please stop. Listen to them and treat their thoughts as you would an adults, ok?

Sorry I've gone all crazy and full of feelings in this post, but that's just who I am. sorry, can't change that fact...

God Bless You,

Becoming Closer to God

via

Recently, like in the past few months, I've been noticed God more in my life. He started to be more important in my life. More like something real than something of a dream.

This all sounds really strange and is really hard to put down. So let me explain. if possible. While we were going through that hard bit, which I don't really want to talk too much about at the moment, I started praying to God to make things better.

I took to reading the bible and wearing my holy medals. Things like that really helped me. They comforted me when I was feeling really low and helped me find things to smile about.

My feelings have all changed towards God, praying, religion. I've always been a Catholic and prayed, but my heart was never in it. I didn't truly understand why I was doing it! silly old me, slow at everything.

What I'm wanting to say is, I see just how kind, helpful and caring God is for us now. I know why we go to him in prayer and try to work up our relationships with him.

God is there, but not like something we imagine, but like a friend, like a physical person. Someone to turn to and love.

So, though I've lost a lot, I've also gained a lot. I feel braver and more confident and closer to go God. thank goodness for that.

From now on, my aim is to make more time for God and to read more of the bible and pray, pray, pray.

I don't know how to end this post. It's a sort of ramble, which for those are you who don't know, is the hardest to end.

Let's just say, until my next post!

God Bless You,

Looking for One Willing and Friendly Teen

via

Hello again guys! It's Kim and I'm back with another post. see I haven't given up already, aren't I awesome?

I'm looking for someone, hopefully and friendly teen who shares some of the same interests as me. Why? Well, let me explain.

I want a pen pal! I've always loved the idea of having someone to swap news, bits and bobs and other things with.

So, today I've decided to go looking for a pen pal. And where better to ask for one than my blog? I for one have no idea!

If you want to be my pen pal, please email me at janekimbennett@gmail.com. I reply to all emails.

I only have a few requirements for you. there's always a hitch. You have to have time to reply, be a teen and hopefully a girl, and you have to really be interested!

Think you're the perfect person? Email me, please?

God Bless You,
-Kim

Thank You To Everyone!

Hi guys! It's Kim and I'm back and I'm back for good this time. I know I said I was 'back' last time, but this time I really do mean it.

My family went through a hard time soon after I wrote that post and I couldn't write anything. I didn't have the spirit or anything good to write about. It was like my family was being torn apart.

But thankfully that's all over, but it's still a raw wound. We're all doing our best to forget it and forgive though.

In the five months I've been away from this blog, I've had a lot to think about. It seems like I'm a whole different person from who I was almost a year ago when I started this blog. yes, it's almost a year!

On another note, I'm a whole year older! I had my birthday in October. I'm still really excited about it.

We didn't do too much for my birthday. We were still getting over that hard time and so we just stayed home and had a bit of quiet time, but it was special.

Anyhow, thanks to everyone who's stuck with me for these months. I know I was a truly rubbish blogger, but you're all amazing!

I will see you all again really soon. as I said, I'm back! 

God Bless You,
Kim

-I have been learning photography. I have learnt a lot and hopefully I will post some of my pictures soon, hopefully:P

-My family has been planning a holiday for these holidays. I can't wait. We're going to the beach! It will lot's of fun. I haven't been to the beach in ages. Don't worry, I'm going to make sure it doesn't get in the way of blogging.

-I have researching podcast making. I sounds awesome! I will have to do more research though.
