Need to cool down

I've done something bad, I feel horrible, and I will confess soon.

Here is the St. Faustina prayer.
"Help me oh Lord, that my eyes may be merciful so that I may never suspect or judge from appearances, but look for what is beautiful in my neighbors soul and come to their rescue."
"Help me oh Lord that my ears may be merciful so that I give to my neighbors needs and not be indifferent to their pains and mourning."
"Help me oh Lord that my tongue may be merciful so that I should never speak negatively of my neighbor, but have a word of comfort and forgiveness for all."
"Help me oh Lord that my hands be merciful and be filled with good deeds so that I may do good onto my neighbors and take upon myself the more difficult tasks."
"Help me oh Lord that my feet be merciful so that I may rush to assist my neighbor overcoming my own fatigue and weariness."
"Help me oh Lord that my heart may be merciful so that I myself may feel all the sufferings of my neighbors, I will refuse my heart to no one, I will be sincere to those I know will abuse my kindness, and i will lock myself up in the most merciful heart of Jesus, I will bear my own suffering in silence, may Your mercy oh Lord rest upon me.

Endings, Beginnings, Cleaning, and new Views on Life

Hello, before I get off I'd like to say that I have finished summer session one and my final grade for biology is a beautiful B. I will post my essay on my belief about the human race surviving later though. Right now my main goal is to simplify my life since i have so much stuff! Seriously I have a lot of clothes that I never wear, and someone else really needs them more than me so I will be giving away some of my clothes and organizing my room until Friday when I go to driving classes.
I have also decided to take up journaling again, not that having a blog isn't a bad thing, but there is nothing like having my thoughts completely and truly honest and uncensored (not that i swear often) on a sheet of paper.
That's all for now.

An important reminder

During the past few weeks I've been doing nothing but bitching, feeling sorry for myself, and not taking the time to understand the problems my loved ones face. I believe God works in many ways and tonight He reminded me of the reason why I need my degree, the real reason why. Next week is my last week of summer session 1 before I finish off my summer by going to driving school, I have decided to concentrate on my work still, but to also remember why God has allowed such things to happen in my life. I must finish an essay at the moment though, tonight I will let you all see an important video though.
