Random Thoughts

This past week has been difficult. Seeing someone that you’re trying to get over was the hardest. I couldn’t say anything because I froze up and also because i’m still feeling angry and hurt over the last time we saw each other. I’ve also been doing alot of thinking lately and the one thing I realized is we were meant to only be together for a short while. This is not to say I wanted it that way; I cried alot over this whole situation and think this was the best for both of us. It was like we grew our wings and were able to fly solo. We were there for each other at the right time and now can move on. My thought today is not to cry because it’s over, smile because it happened. I’m really glad it did

Reading Between the Lines

I think sometimes two people are so in sync with each other that they know what the other is thinking before they even say it. Not everything that is written should be taken literally either, sometimes you have to really read into it to find the actual meaning of what is implied.   If you really dig deep, you’ll find something more beautiful than you could imagine and It’ll leave you wanting more …

Could it Be Magic?

The ultimate love song; it gives me chills every time I listen to it.   It’s so beautiful it will leave you sobbing uncontrollably.

Music Monday – Something More

 

I just opened up my eyes
And let the world come climbing in
It’s all better now, things are gonna work somehow
If I just sleep another hour
Tried to reach you at your mom’s
Hey baby why you trying to keep away for so long
I stopped feeling good, somehow I just knew I would
I guess I’ll sleep another hour
Feels like I’m wasting my time
Hanging on this same old line
Got to get you off of my mind
There’s nothing left for me to find

And all the more I want
All the more I need
All the while you want something more
All the more I want
All the more I need
All the while you want something more

Thought I found the words to say
Just to get you feeling fine over heels my way
But it don’t matter how
I lost the word and nerve and now
There’s nothing more for me to say
Feels like I’m wasting my time
Hanging on this same old line
There’s nothing left for me to find

And all the more I want
All the more I need
All the while you want something more
All the more I want
All the more I need
All the while you want something

There’s nothing left for me to say
Wanting what I need this way
And when I’m feeling low I know
I need to stop

And someday you will see
All the more you want
All the more you’ll need me
All the while I’ll be on to something more
And all the more you want
All the more you’ll need me
All the while I want something more
I want something more
I want something more than this

A Sign?

I’m not an overly superstitious person, but the strangest thing just happened. I was looking out my window and happened to look up at the blind. I saw a stem from a leaf sticking out of the blind (just enough to notice it was there anyway). I pulled it out and noticed the leaf was all intact but the tips were rolled up and shaped into the letter “T”. I just looked at it, stunned, like it was put there for a reason and that I wasn’t supposed to find it until now.

It’s Too Late

It’s Too Late

Slowly I started to fade,
you just watched and laughed.
I started falling faster,
but you didn’t pull me back.
I had a serious problem,
but you didn’t even care.
And now that I’m gone,
you want to be there.
You’re trying to say you care.
I’m sorry, but it’s too late.
You weren’t there when I needed you,
and my emptiness turned to hate.
So now that I’m gone,
you want to be there.
Well I don’t need you anymore,
So you don’t have to care.

Relax

Just sit back, close your eyes, and listen…

Respect

Two Saturdays in a row, I have had to walk out of a situation were I was disrespected by people who I had tried so hard to be friends with and be there for.   I do not understand what possesses people to treat others with such disregard to how others may be feeling.   With both of these individuals (both male, by the way), I have always been there for them, by either contacting them to see how they were doing (I always had to initiate contact first), or be there for them if they were having a bad day and want to talk or just vent.

Why is it so hard in this day and age to maintain a relationship (friendship or otherwise)?   Have computers and cellphones taken away that ability?  Everyone I meet that I haven’t seen in a while says to “friend” them on Facebook, and then that’s as far as contact goes.

Have we become such a self-absorbed society that people think it’s okay to talk down or yell at someone without regard to how the other person might be feeling?  I’m not sure anymore, all I know is that I respect myself way too much to be around these types of people any longer.

 To be respected therefore, is to be valued as a person, and for our needs to be taken into consideration, especially those needs accorded to our dignity as human beings.

Music Monday – I Will Survive

Tough football replacement players, (Keanu Reeves included), in jail, line dancing to Gloria Gaynor’s, “I Will Survive”??   This will definitely make you laugh!

 

 

Music Monday – Jeff Buckley “Grace”

There’s the moon asking to stay
Long enough for the clouds to fly me away
Well it’s my time coming, I’m not afraid, afraid to die

My fading voice sings of love,
But she cries to the clicking of time, oh, time.
Wait in the fire, wait in the fire
Wait in the fire, wait in the fire

And she weeps on my arm
Walking to the bright lights in sorrow
Oh drink a bit of wine we both might go tomorrow
Oh my love

And the rain is falling and I believe my time has come
It reminds me of the pain I might leave, leave behind,
Wait in the fire, wait in the fire
Wait in the fire, wait in the fire

And I feel them drown my name
So easy to know and forget with this kiss
I’m not afraid to go but it goes so slow
Wait in the fire, wait in the fire, oh oh yea oh oh oh yeah unh
Wait, wait, wait in the fire, wait in the fire
Wait in the fire, wait ah uh unh ah

The Serenity Prayer

Serenity Prayer

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time;
enjoying one moment at a time;
accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
that I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
forever in the next.
Amen.
