One Year Anniversary! Love You All!

 Wow! Um, I really don't know how to really start with this blog honestly. I um, I guess I start by just saying thank you to every single one of you who has supported me in my blog. I still find it very hard to believe that it has already been a year now since I launched this blog and the journey has been amazing to say the least. And I am forever grateful for all who has joined me on this ride.

When I first decided to launch this blog, I must admit that I was incredibly nervous. I know shocking right lol. But it was mainly because I was opening up my writing and finally pushing myself creatively and really trying to make it as a writer. More importantly, I was opening myself up to all of you as well with many different topics. Many of which I never thought I would even want to talk about with such things like self harming. And yet here we are.

This blog really has been a blessing in disguise for me and I thank you God for that. It has made me write so much and help keep whatever sanity I have left. It pushed to me to write my first book Thoughts Of A Sheltered Mind on Amazon. And I look forward to continue to do more projects in the future.

I am also extremely grateful for the nearly 3,000 views that I have gotten on my blog since its debut and I am praying to keep this going and build upon it. And I pray that you will all be there with me.

I am pleased to announce that there will be a few new changes happening to the Joshua Yoder Blog. I will continue to be more open and honest about how I feel about things and hopefully that you will all understand what I am going through. I do admit that I am still a little scared about sharing these things, but I also believe that this will help me grow stronger physically, emotionally, mentally and most importantly, spiritually. 🙏🙏🙏

Another change to my blog is I plan to combine all four of my blogs together into one big blog. Main reason it is hard to keep up with all of them and plus, I feel as though people maybe having trouble finding my posts and things getting mixed up. Which is okay, but I will be adding sport stories, music, nerdy stuff over to here and continue to add poems and short stories to my main blog.

Also I will being adding old blog posts from these blogs into the main blog as well so people will be able to look them up and read them without any confusion.

I am looking forward to see how year number two will be for me and my blog and I once again thank the Lord for all of you who have supported me throughout this incredible spiritual journey and I pray that you will continue to be with me as I continue to find myself and be more open to all of you.

I also want to continue to use this blog as a way to help others who are going through similar issues. Because we all are searching for inner peace and be closer to God. And I continue to pray for all of us.

Thank You All so, so much! This really means a lot to me and I hope and pray that all of you will find your happiness. Have faith, because it truly is a beautiful. No matter how dark things may seem, there is always light that can shine over us.

God Bless and Be Safe! I love you all! 🙏🙏🙏

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

The Wacky Adventures Of Joshua and Chad: McVeytown Eagles Championship Parade!

Image
Well tonight was a pretty special night down here in McVeytown as Chad and I along with many other people who live here in McVeytown all came together to celebrate a special accomplishment. And that was how all three of the McVeytown Eagles teams made it to the CKYFL championship games. Winning in both the Peewee and Midget divisions and placing second in the Mighty Mights. Stuff like this doesn't happen often in such a small town where I live so to see these kids have the time of their lives during the parade was certainly a sight to see. One of the things I love about covering sports is when I see kids learn, work hard and turn it into success. And these kids were learning a lot throughout the season and watching them grow and not only become better football players, but better people as well.  Which is why I have really enjoyed covering the CKYFL these last few years for Hometown Sports. People like Travis McCullough who is the President of the league along with Adam Weaver, Rob

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
