Happy 4th of July!

I was debating whether I should do a June recap post or not since June was a quiet month. Not much happened. Especially compared to May. I ended up deciding not to do one. 

 Never fear though. I am still doing a post.

Today is a day when we celebrate our country's independence. The day our Forefathers signed the Declaration of Independence and got our freedom.

Just think. If we didn't get our freedom, we would be drinking tea and not coffee.

 In all honesty, I have no idea what it would be like if we didn't win the Revolutionary War or sign the Declaration of Independence. And I don't really want to know.

I know it's easy to take our independence for granted. To focus on the freedoms we don't have or the ones we're losing. But take a moment today and thank God for the freedom you do have.

 I also have an announcement. I'M GOING TO REALM MAKERS!!! For those of you who don't know what that is, it's a writing conference for Christians who write fantasy, sci-fi, and other genres like that. 

 Thank you for taking the time out of your holiday to read my post. Have you been to Realm Makers? Are you going to Realm Makers? Do you even like writing?
Until next time,
Jonathan

Highlighting March.

Image
Wow! March has already marched on. *plays "Imperial March" in the background*  I decided to post about my highlights of March. Here are some of my highlights of this month. Track started!! I decided on a beginning for my book.  We celebrated my brother James' birthday.   We got some new chicks. I got glasses. That actually happened in February though. I found a new (to me) author. His name is Wayne Thomas Batson. These are the books I read this month. "The Magician's Nephew" by C. S. Lewis "The Last Ride" by Susan K. Marlow (For the record my sister and I traded books and this is the one I got. Otherwise I wouldn't have read it.) "An Acceptable Time" by Madeline L'Engle (I haven't finished this one yet.)  I listened to some awesome music this month. Here's some of my favorites.    "My Religion" by Skillet (This song is AWESOME.) "Alone" by Hollyn "The River"

Star Wars: The Force Awakens Review!!!

Image
       It has been thirty years since the destruction of the Empire. The First Order is trying to take control of the galaxy. The only thing standing there way is a small band of Resistance fighters, a scavenger, An ex-soldier, and a pilot. Sex- none Drugs- none Language- 1 D*mn, 1 H*ll, 1H*ll no Nudity- none Violence- Spaceships explode, characters are shot with blasters and punched, cut and stabbed with lightsabers.        Character is shocked. Several explosions.       First of all I want to say this movie is AWSOME!!! I liked that they had the original actors. I also really like the new actors. The action and humor was really good. I do wish that it had more space battles, but the spaceship battles they had were good.       A lot of people I know think Kylo Ren should have kept his helmet or should have been played by a different person. They did not like the actor. I on the other hand thought he was a little young, but other than that I tho
