F.I.N.E.

Acronyms. Helpful little buggers. That way you don't have to say the whole name. Again. And again. "Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division", for example. After a while... There has to be a better option. *poof* acronyms! Here, I'm going to show you a few of my favorites.

F.I.N.E.

This is one I got from a Focus on the Family magazine. Meaning? Feelings Internal Not Expressed. "I'm fine". True meaning? "I don't want to explain how I'm feeling because I am either lazy and don't want to explain it, doing mediocre, or don't want to bother you with my issues". I throw this at people an awful lot, and usually it helps get me past the blank wall of "fine".

H.O.P.E.

This one I got from a series of inspirational pictures about a year ago. Meaning? Hold On, Pain Ends. It's a reminder that there is always hope. Because pain does end! I keep this one on my mirror, and usually send it to those I know are struggling.

P.E.A.C.E.

I can't remember where this one came from... But I've known it for a pretty long time. At least a couple years. Meaning? Pursue Excellence And Cherish Everything. It's a reminder to keep trying, keep fighting for what you want, but also to recognize and be grateful for what you have already been blessed with.

K.E.Y.

This one is a big part of my school, with a big poster on the hallway wall. Meaning? Keep Educating Yourself. I believe this one is still relevant, even when out of school. How can you progress or continue to grow if you don't continue to learn?

F.E.A.R.

You may already know this one, but it has two meaning for me. Forget Everything And Run, or Face Everything And Rise. Yes, it's kinda corny. But most of these are.

M.A.T.H.

Mental Abuse To Humans. Enough said.
