For Shane & Danielle

I'm not sure if i've ever even mentioned it here, but i do know that i have not let everyone here in on my absolute LOVE for all things Big Brother!  I love everything about it and it is an absolute dream of mine to be in that house one summer!! (i will be applying and trying soon!) 

BUT i do have to get some things off my chest and since this is my little space in the great big wide world of the internet, i'm going to do it here.  there are some seriously hateful people in this world and this isn't new news to me.  but just because it exists doesn't mean i'm going to stand for it or be okay with it.  the kinds of things that are being said about and done to Danielle from this summer's season of big brother just aren't okay.  So here is my letter of love and encouragement to both Shane & Danielle...

Thank you both so much for who you were in the big brother game this summer.  You were fun to watch and you stayed true to who you are which was refreshing!  Of course you weren't perfect ~ nobody is.  But even in your mistakes, and since the show has ended, you have handled yourselves with grace.  You have huge hearts of gold and are both beautiful, on the inside and out!  You don't deserve a single bit of what is being handed to you in the form of hate right now but you are glowing examples of Jesus's love in the way you are handling it all.

I pray nothing but the best for you as you move forward and i will join you in praying for those who are so full of hate as to do and say the things they are to you.  Be proud of who you are and know that there are plenty of supporters who are rooting for and cheering you on!!  I wish i could make you guys a meal, laugh with you, and give you each a HUGE hug of encouragement but since that isn't likely, i hope if you ever read this that you are encouraged!

Love & Blessings~

WHEW.  I feel better.  I hope they do read this but am realistic enough to guess they most likely won't.  But i had to say it.  Had to get if off my chest.  And have to say that i truly feel sorry for the people who are throwing all the hate at these two ~ you have to be a very unhappy person to find any worth in being so disgusting to another person.  And thats all.  for now. =)

 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort,  who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.
