The Movie Quote Quiz Results...


First off guys, great job! You don't know how much I enjoyed looking at all your answers and smiling and I am really glad I did that blog post, and I think I shall make it a Monthly thing, as you enjoyed as much as I did.
Note: Stars between a name means they guessed the movie and the character. Also, note that some people knew what movie I was talking about, but did not use the correct title. Just thought I'd point out. :)
Anyway, the results:

1. You're at 114 Solenski Plaza, 3rd floor. We have an F-22 exactly 8 miles out. Put the woman on the phone or I will blow up the block before you can make the lobby."
Movie: The Avengers Character talking: Coulson. People who got it right: *JT* *Imogen* *Jamie* Daniel

 2. "Are you willing to die to find the truth?"
"You bet I am!... Although, I'd prefer not to."
Movie: Kung Fu Panda 2. Characters: Lord Shen and Po. I was actually a little surprised that no one go this but one well. :)

 3. "Oh, on the stage, well I'd like to see you act, what are you in right now? I could brush up on my English, or bring along an interpreter, that is if they'd let in a *movie* actor."
"I'm not in a play right now, but I will be. I'm going to New York..."
"Oh, you're going to New York and then some day we'll all hear of you, won't we? (name) as Juliet, as Lady Macbeth, as King Lear. You'll have to wear a beard for that one of course."
Movie: Singin' in the Rain. Characters: Don Lockwood and Kathy Selden. People who got it right: Jamie

4. "Who is this? Your brother?"
"That is my wife!"
"And who is this horrid creature? A goblin mutant?"

"A hero can be anyone. Even a man doing something as simple and reassuring as putting a coat around a young boy's shoulders to let him know that the world hadn't ended."
Movie: The Dark Knight Rises Characters: Gordon and Batman/Bruce Wayne. Now, seeing as Daniel guessed, 'Batman' and Batman is one of the people talking will take that as a point. But next MQQ I will be more straight rules. Same reason I gave JT two points instead of one as he guessed DOS but said it was Gimli and Legolas speaking instead of Gloin and Legolas. :)

God Bless

Let's see if we can do this...

disney movie quotes

I have wanted to do another Movie Quote Quiz for ages. I just wasn't sure how to proceed. Anyway, I finally decided to do another one. If people like it that much maybe I'll make it a monthly thing. Also, in previous times I made an award for the winner and award for the participator. That will no longer be happening. This is just for fun, after all! :D 
The Rules:
1. Don't look any of the quotes up on the internet, or any other "looking-up" device.
2. Submit your answers in a comment on this post. You may submit as many comments as you need to, depending on when you remember the different quotes.
3. You score one point for every correct answer you submit -that's telling me what movie the quote is from- and you can also earn an extra point by telling me who said the quote!
4. You MAY ask immediate family members (parents, siblings, pets, etc.) for help and you MAY watch a movie again to see if one of the quotes is in it (of course, that would probably be a waste of time, but whatever :P

If you didn't notice I'm in a bit of a Disney mood. :D Which is not a bad thing.

If that wasn't a dead giveaway, then I don't know what is. :)

10.Our battles quickly got more elaborate. He would win some, I would ALMOST win others! He took the name: (name), defender of Metro City. I decided to pick something a little more humble: (name), incredibly handsome criminal genius and master of all villainy!"

Enjoy! The results will be posted on Friday 31st of January! :)

A Slice of Pizza



Most people title posts like this, 'A Slice of Life' me, I thought it would be cooler to call it what it is now. After pizza is very agreeable, although it could have been a slice of fudge as well, so many delectable choices. :)
Anyway, so what's been happening with me? Hmm, lots of things really.
1. I finished House of Hades. Yes, that book that I was really really annoyed and disgusted with. Thank Goodness I finally have, because I hate to have books that I've only half read hanging around.
2. Watched the last two Hornblower episodes with Rogan. We both agree that Maria is actually a better character than the french girl (I can't even remember her name). And her making him gloves before he leaves. Well, we were both saying 'Aww' when she gave them to him. But we were also about ready to give him a talking to in Duty until the end...then it was much better though it is not one of my favourites.

And we both really like Mr. Bush.

3. Been going in the pool a lot. And enjoying it. It's been really nice as the last few days have been really hot about 40.
4. Watched the last episode of Season 3 of Sherlock. I actually didn't enjoy it that much as it had some stuff in it that I didn't think needed to be in there. My favourite part was the Sherlock and Mycroft moment when they are at their parents' house and their mother almost catches them smoking and Mycroft tells Sherlock that he really does care about him. Also the reconciliation between John and Mary, that was hands down, the best part out of it all. Out of the three I think that probably The Sign of Three was my favourite. I absolutely loved Sherlock's speech. And him organising the page boy and telling a friend of Marys that he had been dropped to casual friend was really funny. Also, it probably had the best mystery out of the three. I did love the first episode but the second is the best I think all round.

Dat speech.
I absolutely loved Sherlock's speech. And him organising the page boy and telling a friend of Marys that he had been dropped to casual friend was really funny. Also, it probably had the best mystery out of the three. I did love the first episode but the second is the best in all areas. 

Also that cliff-hanger? Well, I'm certainly not as interested or emotionally surprised and upset like I was for Reichebach Fall. I mean, BBC confirmed Moriarty to be dead and he's got to be dead. Otherwise Sherlock will just turn into one of those stupid T.V. shows where there is the same bad guy over and over again. Also, not a two year wait please, a year, no more. That's all I ask.  Also, they've been planning seasons 4&5 one very excited girl here! :D

5. Been looking at my drafts. I've got about thirty-six of them and I really need to work on some of them.
6. I've also been making skirts for us girls. Mum also wants one, I've made one for me and Arwen and I've cut out and over-locked almost all of Moran and Myffwyn's skirts. Mum also wants one so busy, busy.
7. Getting excited for a sleepover which me and Eden have organised this Monday night, we are planning on watching movies and staying awake as long as possible, and then crashing. It will be interesting to see how long I last. :)
8. I've got a dead-line to finish TT but actually I haven't done very much reading of it. Hmph, anyway, but I am reading a really nice book by Chrisitne Pope which Mum got off Kindle for me. It's surprisingly more mature than I thought it would be, but I am loving reading it anyway. And I really love Lord Shaine, he's such a sweetie!
Isn't the cover gorgeous? 
9. We celebrated Eden's 18th Birthday last Saturday. Her birthday is actually in July but there were some complications of getting a date that suited everyone. It was pretty exhausting, but nice, and everyone had to wear a mask. Me and Rogan also dressed up as Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John H. Watson, though we didn't get any pictures and the trench coat, then suit coat, were really boiling so it didn't last long. I even had band-aids for nicotine patches and Rogan had a gun, so it was very fun. :) Also, Mum has a pink phone so I walked around with that a little. And we were trying to find a serial killer as well, that's why we were there, investigating.

10. I went and saw Frozen for the second time the other day, I'd already seen it once and then Saxon because he was going crazy as we were listening to the songs from it and quoting, wanted to go and see it, and he generously took Rogan and I along with him. As it turned out, we sat right down the front, it was very interesting as we always try and get the back seats, but the cinema was packed. Anyway, I'll hopefully have a post on Frozen up soon. I enjoyed it much more the second time rather than the first. Thank you Saxon for taking us!

Anyway, I'd better go. That's just an update of what's been going on, hopefully I'll post again soon, but yeah anyway, see you guys!

God Bless

Bonding with my Brother

So yesterday Mum took most of the younger kids out, and me and Rogan had a master plan. A good plan. A stupendous one, even.
We were going to watch a Hornblower in the middle of the day! Now, if you are from a big family, this idea of watching something in the middle of the day which your younger siblings aren't allowed to watch is a very strange concept. Also it's holidays. :D
But we did it anyway. We sat ourselves in the study and devoted about two hours of our time watching it, and saying which characters we hated, cheering on Horatio and Archie and their men and generally booing the stupid French guy with his guillotine.
Can I just say how much I love his hat? 
But wait! I'm not finished, later on I asked Mum if we could watch the next one after that! And being the awesome person she is, she let us do that as well.
And after that, my mind went working again, and yeah I thought 'Hey maybe we can watch the next one tonight!' And Mum said that was okay as well!
Seriously that was about 5 1/2 hours of watching the story of a British Naval officer. And we loved every minute of it. Rogan and I were the only ones who watched, and I think hes little heart was broken when both Archie (*sob*) and Williard (*sob*) both died. Even so, though they are both some of my favourite characters as well.
And through all three movies Rogan was asking questions and I was answering and we were saying who was irritating, who we liked, and who we absolutely hated, or needed a spine.
Anyway, it was great fun to do that, and today Mum is taking all the little kids with her to do some birthday shopping for Eden. Sadly, Rogan is going as well, so I shall have to find something else to do, I wonder what?

God Bless

The Desolation of the Movie Theatre

the-hobbit-the-desolation-of-smaug-banner-2


Okay, so I should probably just get this post done. I've been stressing about it, actually if you'd believe it.
Right, so Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug was pretty awesome.
I loved pretty much all of it.

Bilbo was adorable. And smart. Did anyone else freak out when Thranduil is like 'I see you hiding in the shadows' and you're like 'Oh, awkward.' Then you work out that he isn't talking about Bilbo at all. I was surprised that Bilbo was actually a lot more of a follower in this movie though. Yes, he showed his ingenuity and all that, but the really didn't say anything about some of the dwarves being left behind which was not what I was expecting. I love how awkward he can be though, like when he forgets how he is going to get out of the Elves strong hold once the barrels are gone. And he reminds me of John Watson, seeing as he is actually the same actor. The part with the key was so obvious that it was going to be Bilbo who worked it tou that I was smiling. And they almost lost the key, too! I was actually a bit worried that they would butcher the spider part as Bilbo was wrapped up, thankfully this was not what happened as I had been looking forward to that part more than any other part in the entire movie. I know Smaug was quite a big part of it, but I wanted to see Mirkwood more than anything else.

Thorin was pretty uninteresting in this movie, I just think he's a bit of a grump frankly. Yes, he was wise to not say yes to Thranduil, I agree with him there. But isn't it obvious when he promises the men that he most certainly won't give them what he promised them. After all, he does get rather greedy in the book, if anyone remembers that little detail. And yeah, rather grumpy like I said. Also, you'd think after all they'd been through that Thorin wouldn't leave any of the dwarves behind at all. Despite the fact that Kili got a arrow in his leg. And he didn't even seem to care very much. And he was rather bossy, too.

Gandalf was an alright character. I was utterly disgusted that Azog had the nerve to hit him , much less, fight him. Even, after the movie I kept saying to the others, 'He hit Gandalf!' in a disgusted voice. The parts in Dol Guldur with Gandalf were both scary and cool. I loved the fact that Gandalf so clearly represented good. And as in all movies, good triumphs over evil, the question is though, how the heck is he getting out of that cage? And I mean this is Gandalf, the wizard who would alter on defeat the Balrog, he's stronger than he looks. But he was facing Sauron, it also has to be admitted.
And I think we were all as scared as Gandalf when Radagasts bird flew out at his face.

Kili was a more main character in this movie. And I didn't have a problem with that. The plot device of him getting an arrow in his leg worked. I was rather worried about him, I admit. My favourite part with him probably has got to be his conversation with Tauriel in Thranduil's dungeons. With the talisman. And I really liked it how he said his mother thought he was reckless. Because, that's true. I was also like, when he says about how she wants him to come home to her safe, I thought unhappily, 'Well, that's not going to happen.' Because as we all know, he dies. We just need to make sure that it's extremely epic, along with Fili's and Thorin's deaths as well.

Tauriel was an extremely cool new character. She really stood out from the other elves seeing as she has red hair. But she was really, really, cool. And I really liked her. She's deadly when she fights but also a great listener and talker. Sadly, my whole 'telling-of-Legolas' thing didn't really happen. Did anyone think 'It's Arwen all over again,' when she's healing Kili with the Athalas. Much like what Arwen does for Frodo before the get to Rivendell. She was smart and resourceful, though a little attached to the dwarves, adn most importantly to Kili.

The Kili/Tauriel relationship. Now, some peopel frown on this and others don't mind it at all. I rather liked it. And I liked Tauriel's 'He is rather tall for a dwarf' comment to Legolas. It made me smile. :) Some Ringers are absolutely disgusted with this proceeding. I don't mind it. And before people are ready to stamp me into the ground, might I just point out, that the Aragorn/Arwen relationship is not that much different. Expect maybe for the fact that Arwen is more elf than human. But just thought I'd point that out. Also, I reckon Tauriel will die as well. Just sayin'
Please excuse the Italian? I've no idea.

Legolas was surprisingly a very interesting character to follow, I really quite enjoyed everything with him. From his awesome fighting, (Orlando Bloom has not lost his touch) to all the dialogue moments with him in them. Him and Tauriel are best friends but whereas he likes more than that, as far as I can gather, she sees him just like a brother. The love triangle thing better be cleared up, because it is a bit irritating nevertheless. I think that either Legolas will free Gandalf, or that he will see the armies approaching and somehow find out that Gandalf's imprisoned, or maybe he'll bump into Radagast and they plan a rescue, that would be fun to see! :D I actually think that Legolas was better in DOS than he was in the LOTR trilogy because he didn't just fight, he talked, and that gave him more character depth.


Smaug. Now, everyone was excited about seeing Smaug, weren't they? I was also doubly excited because Benedict Cumberbatch was doing his voice and he's Sherlock. And I also think that it was funny seeing as he's best friend in the T.V. series is John Watson who is also played by Martin Freeman. So very funny. :D
I was actually disappointed with Smaug. The thing that irritated me more than anything else, was the fact that his wings were attached to his front feet instead of being folded in behind his head on his sides. That just really irritated me. I like European dragons and I have never, ever imagined Smaug like that. Also, I always imagined him very, very red. Not gold.
Had to share, sorry. :)
And his voice wasn't that impressive. Sorry, it's just I was disappointed. And I didn't like the fact that Bilbo pulled off his ring. But chasing after the Arkenstone was pretty funny to watch. Who knows, maybe he'll improve in the final movie.

Bard was a nice addition to the cast, I really liked him. And his relationship with his son and daughters, and he is very obviously a weary man. Question is, how is he going to get out of prison and kill the Smaug.

Honourable and un-honourable mentions: Balin in honourable, Azog un-honourable, Master of Laketown un-honourable, other-whats-name-I-can't-remember-who-is-after-Thorin-for-Azog-Orc-character/thingie un-honourable. Master of Laketown's assistant un-honourable. Fili honourable. Radagast honourable. And so on.

And to end this post. I thoroughly enjoyed The Desolation of Smaug and look forward to There and Back Again. Though it did have a few slow bits more to the end I liked it anyway. And the ending was really annoying! Argh! I don't like cliff-hangers, but on the other hand, I do. :)
How about you guys?


God Bless

'Well, surprise me.' 'I'm certainly endeavouring to, Sir.'



Spoilers ahead, for all those who do not want to ruin the surprise. I wouldn't advise reading further unless you've seen it.
Okay, well last night I saw the first episode of Sherlock Season 3: The Empty Hearse.
It was awesome! I really enjoyed it. There were so many laugh-out loud moments. Dad, Mum, Eden, Saxon and I were invariably chuckling and laughing. I'm not quite so sure about Autumn. Thank you so much, though for finding it on-line, Autty! You're awesome. :D

Now, the mystery wasn't much of a mystery, it was more like 'A Study in Pink' where there are introductions and that sort of stuff. I didn't think that much of Mary when you first meet her, but she grew on me. And I really like her.
Lestrade's reaction was great, and more what I thought there would be in John's reaction.
Oh, and Sherlock drives a motor-bike.
There were some really funny Mycroft and Sherlock moments which were really funny. The way he survived his fall? Well, everyone thought it was a bit more elaborate but it was actually really simple, and we all feel a bit stupid, I shouldn't wonder. :P
This bit. *starts laughing*
The part in the train where Sherlock couldn't work out what to do, well, I thought he actually couldn't. But then he's Sherlock Holmes, of course he knew! 'There's an off-switch, there's always an off-switch.'
'Killing me, oh please, that's so two years ago.'
Molly was a bit more main, I think the relationship between her in Sherlock is better in this season. Almost big brother, little sister.
John's mustache. Now, what all the fans agreed was that John's mustache was not adding to his looks. It was a total surprise that Mary didn't like it, and neither did Sherlock. 'Let me just ask you one question..you're not going to keep that are you?'
The reunion between Sherlock and his best friend was hysterical, we were laughing all the way through it, also the fact that John is really, really mad and tries to throttle Sherlock in three different cafes.
I picked up a few references from the original stories, which I was rather proud of, I didn't pick up half of them, as some were more subtle.
So....I'm guessing that the person watching the screen at the end of the episode is Charles Augustus Milverton.
So, to end this post, I can't wait to watch episode two, and it was a great start to the third season! :D
Cannot wait for this! 
Now, being the nice person that I am. Here's the link to where we watched it, and if you are dying to watch, I recommend clicking on the link, and starting it. :)

The New Heroes I found in 2013

So seeing as it is only a about one hour and ten mintues until 2014 (gee, we're all getting so old!) I thought I'd do one of those '2013' posts. And so this post is about heroes who I discovered this year.


Sir Luca Forelli-from the River of Time series, by Lisa T. Bergren. Now, if you read the first three books. i.e. Waterfall, Cascade and Torrent chances are that you won't get to hear that much about Luca, he's usually in the background adding a humorous quip in the background. He's got green eyes and he's blonde and as we all know Vellvin has this thing for blonde guys. No idea why. :) Luca is committed, kind and determined. He's captain of the Forelli guard and is very stern when it comes to his duty. He's a bit of a flirt but that's only to the one girl that he really, really likes. And his patient, it's quite obvious that he really likes her, but he waits patiently to see what she thinks about him. He's a fun-loving passionate guy. And he's pretty amazing with a sword. Before reading the two novellas I liked Marcello better than Luca, now I think it's the other way around.


Sherlock Holmes- I discovered Sherlock Holmes only the start of this year when watching the BBC T.V. show Sherlock. After watching that I quickly read 'A Study in Scarlet' 'The Sign of the Four' 'The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes' 'The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes' and I am almost finished 'The Return of Sherlock Holmes'. It's safe to say that I'm a Sherlockian I think. Do not speak to me of the Robert Downey Jr. Sherlock Holmes movies, we turned the first movie off within the first forty-five minutes, and don't speak to me about that rip-off off a T.V. show called Elementary either. Sherlock Holmes has two characters for me. The gentleman of the original stories, and the sometimes uncaring sociopath of the BBC T.V. show who actually is not a 'high functioning sociopath'. as he so heated;y points out to Anderson. This Sherlock Holmes would be horrible to be around in real life, but I like him anyway. Plus, he has a really cool trench coat and scarf and who can argue with his marvelous deductions?


Percy Jackson-I read all of the Percy Jackson/Heroes of Olympus books this year. Except for House of Hades, which I was rather disgusted with after a certain thing happened in the book. Anyway, Percy's a really nice guy. He's smart, independent, and rather good with a sword. We see him mature from a twelve-year-old boy to a seventeen-year-old young man. He's usually the person with the funny lines, which are usually pointed insulting at people he doesn't like. Like Hera for instance. He is extremely loyal to his friends and his resourceful no matter what. He can control water and summon a hurricane, and just so everyone knows, he's better than Jason.

Batman/Bruce Wayne- Okay, so this year I finally saw the Christopher Nolan, Batman movies. True, these movies aren't made by Marvel, but that doesn't mean that they are any less great than some of the Marvel movies. They are also, (in my opinion) more dark and yes, pun intended as they are known as the Dark Knight Trilogy. When we first meet Bruce he's a little eight-year-old boy who's fallen down a hole to a cave where bats live. And he hates them. Next day, boom his parents get shot, fun, fun. We fast forward a little bit and he's a stupid irresponsible young man who no thought really, of what to do with his life. Then he starts to travel the world, to find a way to fight injustice, is trained by Ra's A Guhl but does not think that they're methods are right. Killing for killing and such. And he says that this is what draws the line between good and bad, and I've got to agree with him. He's a smart, smooth guy. With some nice Lamborghinis if I might add, but he sacrifices a lot in him being Batman.

And the fact that he got a happily ever after, starting a new life with Selina, getting married was great. Because he deserved it.


Connor-from Assassin's Creed 3. Okay, this guy is the only guy who I've put on here who is from a video game. I get attached to some strange characters but I actually spent quite a while just watching Saxon playing as Connor. I haven't even played all of his story. Most of what I've done with him is pick peoples pockets and get into fights. I don't usually do any of the missions. Just that sort of stuff. And I mean, Connor he's pretty cool, he gets to wear Assassin clothes, have cool weapons, and he's an Indian, so what's not to like?

And there you have it, everyone! My heroes of 2013. Amazing guys one and all! :D

God Bless

Answering a question......

Hey everyone. Sorry I haven't posted, first off I hope everyone had a happy and holy Christmas! 
I stole this picture from Una Mariah's blog. Petticoats and Muckboots. Only a few more days till season 3!
The reason for not posting? Well, first being really busy, then catching a stomach bug on the day before Christmas Eve (no pressure of course. :P ) and then recovering, going to midnight Latin Mass which, though I am sure was very beautiful I was pretty tired off after a while not to mention though there were fans on I was hot and very tired as I hadn't got hardly any sleep before we had to get ready. Then after we got home, we had our Christmas photo, I was a bit grouchy and still feeling really tired and still recovering from the bug. We had our Midnight feast, put our bags out and then I tried to get to sleep. At 3 o'clock in the morning, and I didn't sleep well. After being sick I confess the only reason I haven't blogged is because I've been enjoying being lazy, and slowing down. But I DID see the Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug yesterday and I WILL be working on a post about what I thought of it. Suffice to say for the moment I am proud of my title of 'Vellvin da Elven' after seeing it. I feel so cool. :D


NOTE: I would not recommend people under the age of fifteen reading this unless it had been pre-read by someone who you trust (like a parent) for instance. I just like to add this to any post which deals with any of these issues as it's better safe than sorry. And I do not mean to offend anyone, if you don't want to read it, then don't. But it is my site, and it is my right, too. 





On to the meat of the matter. I had this huge (and I mean huge) blog post and it was suppose to be a broken up into sections. Abortion, Homosexuality, Euthanasia, Contraception, Un-married couples living with each other and possibly divorce. But I have decided instead that I wanted to post one of the sections that I have completed. That being the Homosexuality section. 

Now, do you all remember my blog post on going to the walk for True Marriage? Well, I got this really weird comment from an anonymous person called 'D' great name by the way. :P And this is what it said:

Hey there. I'm a 14-year-old girl who just came across your blog. I'm also openly gay, and reading this post made me interested in hearing just why you hold these views about me and my people. Keep in mind that I'm not trying to be confrontational at all, I just really want to have a conversation with someone who thinks like you do. Have you ever thought about *why* gay people are supposedly wrong? Like, what is it about loving the same gender that is so horrible and disgusting? You say that you're against same-gender marriage. Do you think a gay person like me should just never find commitment, or do you just think we should never find love at all? I'm also interested in hearing what you would do if a close friend or relative of yours came out as gay, bi or transgender. Would you reject them, or...? It just honestly confuses me how someone my own age, or really, anyone, could hold these views. I don't think anyone is naturally inclined to despise gay people, I believe homophobia is a 

That's what it said and I was very ready to write an answer back but instead I've added it into this blog post seeing as this is what I am writing about. Also, this was from an anonymous commenter whom I'd never heard of before, who knew nothing about me, and wasn't even necessarily a fourteen-year-old girl, and if so, it looks like she's been brainwashed. And maybe, if 'D' is reading this, she may get an insight of why it is wrong, and what it is that such ludicrous ideas do to people. 





Homosexuality. Okay, so a few years back, I found out that people of the same gender thought they could marry each other! I didn't think that much of the matter until probably this year, where this thing, that people like to call 'gay marriage' even though it is clearly not marriage and its proper disgusting-throwing-up-worthy-term is actually Homosexuality. Yep, that's its actual term, and don't sugar-coat its name, because its not marriage. Marriage is between a Man and a Woman. You can be best friends with another girl or guy, you can still be friends with people of the same gender. You can still love them with a brotherly or sisterly love. But you cannot MARRY THEM!!! Or think you can! You cannot have the same love as a husband and wife share.
St. Joseph. 
 See this guy here. His name is St. Joseph. He was the foster father of Jesus, and head of the Holy Family. He is also patron of families. And you know what. Homosexuality is like, the destroyer of families. It's wrong, its immoral, and its just plain stupid. What morons people are if they think that they can do something like that! And no, its not a trend, so don't go saying 'it's the latest trend' either. And don't refer to honest-to-goodness-marriage as 'traditional marriage' either, as that makes you sound like you think that Homosexuality IS marriage, whereas it is not. Marriage is between a Man and a Woman. And that ain't ever gonna change. I was thinking the other day about The Princess Bride and about the old King who says 'won't that be nice' when Buttercup kisses him and then tells him how she is going to kill herself. WE CAN'T ACT LIKE THAT! We can't be all 'Oh it'll be alright, it's their life after all.' Because these are like the sheep without a shepherd. We can't be indifferent, we can't just stand by and let things like that happen! Because then we are no better than they are. We are accepting that it is okay, then. Because we have not stood up and told the world what we think. Okay, world, so wanna tell you something
True story. You will never ever change this! 

And it's the truth.
The people I know, I see the great examples and the example that my Mother and Father have given me all the days of my life, a true marriage is one where you help each other, give counsel to each other, and love each other. It's not perfect, (most certainly not) but it IS marriage. And funny story, that's because their is a father and a mother. :)
Portrait: 12.12.2013 AUSTRALIA HIGH COURT, NO to same sex 'marriage'

Our constitution today protected motherhood, childhood and family.
Our marriage laws are equal and not discriminatory; 
because it applies equally to gay and heterosexual people, 
as every Australian is free to marry a member of the opposite sex.


Australia Supporting Traditional Marriage
Aussie, Aussie, Aussie, Oy! Oy! Oy! 
My Mum and Dad have been married for more than twenty-five years (awesome right? :) ) and Mum wrote a blog post on it as well if you are interested. http://cherishedheartsathome.blogspot.com.au/2012/05/what-is-marriage.html And that's what marriage is. And also, if you have parent number one and parent number two not a Mum and a Dad, how can you create new life? The answer is, you can't. And then having children which is one of the things that a husband and wife have to be opened to before they are married when they are preparing marriage is that this is one of the most important rules of marriage. Openness to children. It is actually a requirement and if you say no (at least in the Catholic Church) you can't get married and it's not marriage then. So, therefore, don't go calling it 'gay marriage' because it lacks the depth, the truth, and the meaning of what real marriage is.  Also you can't create a human life. And if you adopt a child, what if it is a boy and he has two Mums how he is suppose to learn how to be a man? He can't that's the answer, and vice versa, this affect CHILDREN more than anything else, this selfish, stupid, immoral idea. So stop being selfish, think about what if it was you, and please, realise that it is wrong.




Ever time I listen to this song, I cry. This is what TRUE COMMITMENT IS!
So who's in for telling the world what we think? Because every little bit helps, prayer the most out of anything, though we might not see that as doing very much.

St. Joseph patron of families, protector of the Church, Pray for us! Lord Jesus, watch over us, help us to be peacemakers, and to love our neighbours always. No matter what they believe! 

God Bless
