I thought I'd grace the website pages while I am updating it as well. Today is the birthday of one of my collegues, a very giving person and true to her morals. Her past loyalties can atest to that.
I'd like to say thank you to all of the people out in cyberland who have rated and left comments on my choreography on YouTube. It still just goes to show that I must not be what other people call me--you know the negative and hateful remarks. So, a really big THANK YOU to all of you!!
Also, it shows that when you are not the person who poses manipulation/mischief, you always recieve God's gifts--what He wants you to have.
All of those people who slandered me, falsely acused me, ectera, ectera; you are only living by our own will and not are recieving the fruits of God's labours. {For those who do not understand, you should read my blog entry on Blogger titled-"Beasts Against Jesus"}

O LORD, how many are my foes!
How many rise up against me!
Many are saying of me,
"God will not deliver him."
Selah [a]
But you are a shield around me, O LORD;
you bestow glory on me and lift [b] up my head.
To the LORD I cry aloud,
and he answers me from his holy hill.
Selah
I lie down and sleep;
I wake again, because the LORD sustains me.
I will not fear the tens of thousands
drawn up against me on every side.
Arise, O LORD!
Deliver me, O my God!
Strike all my enemies on the jaw;
break the teeth of the wicked.
From the LORD comes deliverance.
May your blessing be on your people.
Selah

Back again.....
Many times in my life I am saddened by people's action's and thoughts {or words}. I really need to pray harder, because God is evidently not hearing my prayers. While at this moment in my life I am really binded by fianancial opp's--there is a silver lining and I will prevail. Even today I will prevail with God's wishes to rise higher above than before. I am referring to incidents that happened to me from my former employees. {NOTE: I have had my company off/on since 2002, while I never really acheived success, I never witnessed pure inmature behaviour from people.}
I used to vent about them and I was letting them hold power over me. I soon wised up and did not let what "they" have to say bother me. Many things were said about me--all in negative and hateful fashions. But as one of friends told me, "consider the source". A professional collegue who is a Christian Counsoler, said, "If you defend what they have to say {lies} then you are stating it is true." I never thought of it in that way. It makes complete sense to me.
Any true Christian knows {or any person who lives their lives for God} knows that Christians rise above when negativity pops up {people, actions, ideas, ect.}. Anyone who speaks ill of another is clearly not praticing any form of religious faith.
Still, I sit here almost 2 years later am really saddened at these girls personalities. I have got on with my life, maybe you should do the same.
Of course, what is on the internet is a site that is similar to Wilkapedia...just type in wendalkoon and see what pops up...there you will find it. Two things that I find amusing are:
....She professes to be a "choreographer, teacher, dancer," but videos and pictures on her page show to be fat and talentless.....; ....In fall of 2007 wendalkoon began posting videos of herself attempting to dance, resulting in lulz and/or vomiting from anyone who watched them....
Now, I ask all of my readers and the general public; is that a little pretenious to go that far to see another's demise. It is like we are dealing with teenagers--well, we are, they are the "new" teenagers...young, dumb, and stupid. Well, I am not going to speak ill of them, get "even" with them, or any other underhanded tactic that is not supported by my Lord and Saviour! Clearly people who speak ill of another is not following their calling.
In closing, I am not going to respond in the way this individual wishes I would. I have given it over to God and I have nothing to worry about. Just like I have learned to give it over to Him when times are rough. In fact, everything is done via the internet {myspace, blog sites, ect.}. Perhaps, the next time she or her co-horts speak ill of me it will be in person and not "online".....as it is really old by now...2 years later.
So, I will continue to pray for you and I shall rise abve your insults.
January 4, 2008:
Last weekend, I was watching Joel Osteen on TV {because parking is murder at that place} and he was talking about people who talk about you. They are jealous, don't understand, ectera. I don't remember word for word what he said. He did say people who speak negative about you, don't allow them to poison your waters; because you are doing what God put you here to do. God knows what he is doing, you just have to trust him.
That is so true. I realised to just let go and if people want to talk about me, go ahead. My expierence in 2006 was not the first time I had to deal with insensivity, and it won't be the last either. When I let go and gave it over to God, life became much less complicated. Yes, I still read negative things about me {that are really stupid}, but I don't have to answer to their whims. I have always wondered what makes people act in indifferently. I still have no answers; but I can only asssume that they do not see God in the shadow when walking in the sun.
Ever since I was 22, I have had a belief in something that was good, honest, and loving. Hatred, negativity, manipulation was so replusive to me. How could I relate to someone who behaved in that fashion? I asked myself that same question many times. Yet, I was conversing with people who were mean, manipulative, and liars. Everyone liked me though. Of course, I was a virtual doormat for everyone to step on and they did step on the Wenda doormat--"welcome to the Wenda Koon doormat of life..just step on her, she won't mind".
It wasn't until years later that I discoverd my desires were that of a Christian {Duh?}Everyone had a change of heart of in November of 2000, when my father passed. Friends did not know what to say. "Oh, it did not happen to me, why should I say more than what is expected?" Ninety nince percent of people who were my friends bailed. Friends, yea, right! If it only benefited them. Guess who was there? God. He never left me. After my father's passing, I began "cleaning house". I cleaned out the people who did not follow God and serviced themselves as they were their own God. I found a good counsoler for my anger, verbal abuse, and grief. Yes, I was verbally abusive, because my dad and 1st beau were abusive to me. It rolls downhill.
I found God and when that happened, people did not like that. It meant I was no longer a doormat for others to step on, and they did not like that. Then I became known as the bitch! Plain and simple. I learned to put up boundaries {which is a Christian thing} and stick to them. There were some really anrgy people. Looking back now, I say, "Oh WEll, they do not pay my bills and food and cloth me." Reminds of the Eminem song and the lyric--"f*ck you, damn it".
My mother's side of the family told lies of me and my mom and probably my dad. I really like that my aunt {and use that word loosely} said that, "Wenda blew all of her savings on frivilous things." This was a person I looked up to. Not anymore. I just found this out when my other aunt passed away last month. I don't consider them family. Family don't talk behind each others back's. They are two-faced and the one's who don't say anything but sit and listen are just as to blame. I have no family. My family were Daddy and Grandma and they are deceased. Of course, my Mom, but we live together, so that's different!
So, I say to everyone, I follow Christian principles. If you have a problem with that, take it up with God!
Well, that is my thought for this day!
Interesting thing to note: When you tell people you are a Christian, they want to pull you down.
