Stock Market Exchange

It's a real shame that I had to pull out of my investment so soon. Especially when it was to my impression that my return would at least gain some sort of momentum, but I sit here with little to nothing. If anything, I just went backwards in the endeavors to play my cards right.

The hardest part is that, unlike other stock holds, I can't look into the past and see the history of what other investors have put in or taken out of.

I abhor the fact that I have so much faith in every stock I invest in. I have complete faith and no fear that I will have a good return, at least for the short run if that is all I have the opportunity to share.

It's the feeling of waking up, every morning to think. How will my investment yield today? Having hope, being excited.

Then there's the slow fade of seeing the rapid decline of my investments worth to the stock holder, and the fast incline of others who have lost faith and trust in their shares.

I hoped at least for a Hedge Fund. But now that I for myself have discovered a history of Hostile Takeover, I realize that I have no control over the rate of my return.

It has amounted to just an illusion of potential.

Perhaps it's time to put more investment in the stock hold of my own domain.

Passtressport for Brazil Trip: Mission Complete!


AAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaahhhhhhhhh. Okay I can breathe now. I got my birth certificate copy today, and I saved $100 on my passport because I didn't have to expedite! Thank you Lord for the fact that Americans don't like to travel around 9/11... or ever. It's crazy to think that only 30% of all Americans own passports. I bet it is way less now.

Seriously, what is it about numbers and crazy dates that make people so fearful? Friday the 13th? OOOh scary?! No. Taylor Swift was born on friday the 13th and she is doing terrific! Fear not lovely people!!!

God is the greatest math-magician ever. Let him decide what days are going to be significant for you.

In the meantime, I am going to find lots of addresses to send my letters out for Brazil Mission Trip!

Love, Lena

Going to Brazil!




Oh my freeezed dried pineapple, this is the craziest thing I have ever done. Maybe not the craziest thing ever, but I thought it was funny how they mentioned Brazil Mission Trip at Church and my heart said, "You're going!!!" and my brain said, "Wait, what?!?!" So that impostor, fear, gets in the way and scrambles my sanity to mush.

All I know is that I am stressed, but I am fearless in this journey of faith. I'm hanging on to the end of a rope. I'm hanging on the end of the rope that is attached to this trap door leading to a labyrinth of insanity, trying to throw road hazards in my way to thwart the mission trail. The thing is, I already have the key. and I have been given this door to find. The door, I'm not sure what it is or where it will be but I will find it.

Do follow me on this mission of mine. I will need your prayers and support.
