| hey you guys...well its like christmas eve eve eve...thats pretty exciting so in light of christmas it generally comes to mind that its almost new years...wow i have changed so much this year. but havent we all. i mean looking back at pictures from this year has really reminded me that you dont get to be a certain age forever. you dont get moments back. you can only move on. you can remember them but until they come up with a time machine thats all you get. so its time to move on to the next year. lets all approach it with a new beggining. a clean slate. so as i look back on this year some good and some bad memories come to mind... like kamp kennessee... ...lol. then theres camp hylake... ...good times good times. then there was hanson...the beginning of a very frustrating but interesting adventure...lol. so thats about all i can come up with for now... MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! | | |
| today was the most eye opening experience. i mean i was so inspired and just reenergized. today was the prayer breakfast. craig scott was there. his sister was shot execution style in the head because she believed in God. he told us his story and hers and i wanted to tell yall cuz this is an amazing but so incredibly sad. rachel and craig scott were in the car one morning(april 20,1999) and were in a fight. he was yelling at her and she ws yelling back. he got out of the car slammed the door and walked into school. his sister was very caring and very happy and very very faitful. she would talk and reach out to people who no one else would even acknowledge. well the day went on and craig and his two friends were in the library. they heard popping noises and they were joking around thinking it was the senoirs playing a prank with sme fire krackers or paintball guns. all of the sudden a teacher came in screaming. she was so panicked and frantic that they couldnt understand what she was telling them. one guy all bloody walked into the library and just dropped. the teacher got all of the students seated at tables with thier heads down. craig and one of his friends got under the table and waited. two guys with guns came n and just started shooting. one of his friends was black and when the boys saw him they made fun of him and then they sot him. his last words were i want to see my mom. his other friend was shot and craig could do nothing about it. they shot the teacher and 12 students. craig said he couldnt tell if the boys were n the library anymore so he just prayed. he sat under a table and prayed. he said after he had said amen the fear was almost gone. he was relieved and he felt the need to get out. he felt like someone was telling him to get out. so he stood up and he looked around the room and didnt see the boys so he yelled at everyone and moved everyone out. he carried a girl cuz she was shot and injured very badly. they all ran behind a car in a field and just waited. looked for other injured people just waiting. craig found a friend and the friend told him there was another person shot. he said that all he could see was a backpack. they heard the boys return to the library and criag realized that if they had waited any longer to move they all would have been hurt or kiled. after it was safe to leave they all ran home or stayed to wait for their friends or family. craig said he waited on a sidewalk for his sister for 4 hours. he was stopping everyone and asked them if they had anyone at the school and he would tell them tat he was praying for them. he said that one lady just was so panicked and screaming her daughters name up and down the streets. he stopped her and told her that he was praying for her and that God would take care of her. (he said that a month later the lady was on the newspaper holding her daughter crying.) he went home and waited with his family all night and day. they just waited. i mean can you imagine just waiting. waiting to know if your sister was alive or not. just waiting. they got the call in the morning that rachel was dead. it took craig a year to get the strength back to go to school again. he told us that he didnt want to go anywhere else that he was not gona let this beat him. he didnt want to be a victim. but the anger was his biggest problem. he said he would fantisize over what he would do to those boys if he could get like 5 minutes with them. he held his anger inside him and just wouldnt let it go. one day him and his little brother were watching tv and a violent scene came on and he had a flash back and remembered everything that had happened. he asked his brother to change it. the brother didnt know what was going on so he asked why. craig said he dragged his brother into the kitchen picked up a knife and just looked at his brother and screamed over him that this is what its like to be so close to losing your life. his anger took control of him and he just couldnt control it. he said that letting anger go is like being freed from prison. its just freeing. he had found out that these boys had a role model(the killers). their role model was adolf hitler. they chose april 20 cuz thats hitlers birthday. they had watched a movie and gotten how to kill someone from it. they were influenced so much that they became like them. they became racist and they became killers. craig said a student came to him and told him that rachel had been shot in the legs and the gut but she was still trying to help this guy. she crawled over to him and tried to help. the two guys came over and pulled her head up by her hair and asked if she still belived in God. she told them, "you know i do" and they shot her in the head. the police found her journal and the bullet was stuck. the bullet had gone through her head and was stuck in the journal. what if she had said no? she would prolly still be living but craig said that she wouldnt have wanted it any other way. she was better off dying for Christ than living for the devil. all i could think of was what if that was taylor. what would i have done? i wouldnt have been that strong. i dont even know if i could have been rachel. i dont know if i would have stod up for God and died for Him. but she did... | | |
