I Thought Of You Today

updated on 2 Comments on I Thought Of You Today

It happens all of the time…a brief moment of a memory that was buried deep in my mind…..deep in my heart. The memory that somehow…. lets me know…that somewhere…some way…you are still there. I thought of you today…..always there…in most every song….in most every….thing…..completely out of my control…..but each moment warms my heart….embrasing my soul……because…..I thought of you today. It isn’t easy you know…..but…it is what it is….when you long for the interaction….of once was. But…as we all know….life goes …

When You Miss Someone

updated on Leave a Comment on When You Miss Someone

Missing is a “contranym” one word with two opposite meanings. Missing means to be either connected or disconnected. To miss people means to love them…..to be partial to them…incomplete without them…and with that…missing the part that makes you whole. Missing someone….or something is different for every individual in many different ways…..at many different times. That longing and yearning can happen when you least expect it. Depending upon the connection and circumstances with that individual is how you will deal with …

Don’t Get Discouraged

Life…..it is full of ups and downs….twists and turns….exitement and disappointments. But….theses things and so much more….is just that…….life.

I Can’t Tell You Why…

updated on 4 Comments on I Can’t Tell You Why…

The Dreaded Funk You know the dreaded “funk” that we all get into from time…to time…well that would be me right about now…or at least that is where I was for the last several weeks or so. Writing for me fell by the way-side….I just had no desire. But within that time….I’ve relied on prayer….. exercise….a lot of self-reflecting….oh and did I mention….a lot of prayers…..you bet I did….because that always brings me peace of mind……body….and soul. But…..we’ve always wondered …

We All Cry Sometimes

updated on 2 Comments on We All Cry Sometimes

This is such a natural thing….it’s the shedding of tears…..and this will happen for so many reasons…..the birth of a baby…the loss of a loved one…..heartache…..heartbreak…..happiness….excitement….sadness and even anger. Crying is believed to be an outlet or a result of a burst of intense emotional sensations…such as surprise….joy or agony. For me personally…..I can tear up from a sappy movie….to a Hallmark commercial. I don’t play favorites….you might say that I wear my heart on my sleeve in that respect. …

If You Knew Me…

updated on 2 Comments on If You Knew Me…

If I had to describe…..me to you…it would go something like this. I am a very caring person….full of compassion….always ready to lend a hand. I feel that going the “extra mile” to help even just one person….then it is well worth the trip. I am very nurturing…sometimes even to a fault. I believe in second chances….in new beginnings….in love at first sight. I will cry at a sappy commercial…and a movie with a sweet happy ending. If the music …

Until It Was Gone

updated on 9 Comments on Until It Was Gone

In life…we always….assume…..assume that things will always remain the same…..assume that everything will work out…..assume that nothing will ever change……until it was gone. It’s a natural thing that we all possess….and that would be….the ability to hope for the very best. There’s nothing wrong with that really….having a positive attitude where your life is concerned…..but remember, my friend….life does happen….and things will change. Broken promises….broken hopes and dreams and all that this involves…..we will experience it all….life is no bed …
