Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer!

 You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen and Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen. But you recall the most famous reindeer of all?

Ah yes! Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, this was one of my favorite Christmas stories ever! And since we are getting ever so closer to Christmas, I figured it would be appropriate to talk about this amazing story.

Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer was created by Robert L. May and it made its debut on the bookshelves back in 1939.

The story goes as Rudolph was born with a glowing red nose which in turn leads him to being mocked and teased by his fellow reindeer. But what at first was thought to be a weakness, turned out to be his greatest strength as a huge winter storm covered the world which kept Santa from delivering toys for Christmas. That was until they used Rudolph's glowing red nose to light the way for Santa and his sleigh.

This story is so amazing and it is also the kind of story that is still relevant to this very day. The reason why I say that is because how early on in the story, Rudolph thought his nose was nothing more than a curse. But it ultimately it was a gift from above and it was used to save the day.

It truly is amazing because we all can relate to something like that. We all have our own problems that deal with throughout our lives. We all wonder why we all deal with these issues. But I like to believe that everything happens for a reason. God doesn't make mistakes, there is a reason behind everything and we just never see it. You just have to have faith that it will all lead somewhere and that is what this story means to me. 😇

The song was amazing too. In fact, it was created ten years after the book was released and it was created by May's brother-in-law Johnny Marks who wrote the lyrics while Gene Autry sang the song which hit the number one spot of the Billboard pop charts the week of Christmas. The recording sold nearly 3 million dollars in its first year! 😲

I also loved 1964 stop motion animation television special which was made by Rankin/Bass Productions. The screenplay was written Romeo Muller who also written a number of other amazing Christmas animations as well like Little Drummer Boy, Frosty the Snowman and Santa Claus is Coming to Town.

It is such a beautiful story and I pray that many generations from now people will still be influenced by Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer.

God Bless and Be Safe Everybody! 🙏🙏🙏

Lewistown Area High School Class of 2009

 I can't believe it has been 15 years since me and Chad have graduated from Lewistown Area High School back in 2009. High school was a very interesting time for not just myself, but for many of us who had attended, mainly because usually times at high school is the time of getting to know ones self and discover who they are and what there place is in this world. Being a teenage to becoming a young adult can be very challenging to a lot of people during this time in life. Especially with dealing with all sorts of different emotions that we didn't understand before. Sadly, there are also a lot of young people who struggled to figure things out during their time in high school and I was certainly one of those people.  I mention this because recently I found and looked back through my yearbook when I graduated from Lewistown and it was pretty cool to see some old faces especially now that I am older and learned so much about myself. The only problem about this is I wish I knew what

What's going on? Being honest with ourselves!

 I don't like to cause any problems with anybody but there have been a lot of things that I been wanting to get off my chest for a very long time now. And that is in my humble opinion people don't seem to want to be honest about really anything anymore. Now, I could be just a little paranoid, maybe my anxiety is getting the best of me or whatever. But as time has past I have been getting a weird feeling all over me. You see, I just feel as though people no one is really being honest with each other, themselves or to God anymore. I wish I could describe it better but it has been a concern of mine for quite a long time now and I feel like it is getting worse. People would always say things to me like, Josh it is just a different time. But honestly, I think that is just a lame excuse. And the reason I say that is because a lot of those same people who say that kind of stuff to me are the exact same people who then say that they don't understand how things around us are getting

Is It Worth It To Keep Fighting?

 You know the thing I hate the most about dealing with depression and just mental health in general is the simple fact that I know that there are so many people in this world you is dealing with struggles in their lives. And I keep telling myself to stay humble and be grateful for everything I have in this world and that things can always be worse, but, I ultimately just end up hating myself. I wish I was stronger, I really do because I feel embarrassed about feeling this way. I hate it! I really, really hate dealing with this crap in my head! I mean, there are people dealing with cancer and other diseases, people who are struggling with addiction, you know we all got problems. So I do apologize I am honestly not trying to make this about me because I ain't anything special and most likely never will be. I'm just so frustrated about life and just trying to find meaning in anything really. My whole life I have tried my best to prove that I can do something with myself and overco
