I know I haven’t been blogging lately.  But there has been so much going on, I could never focus my thoughts long enough to come up with words to say.  Honestly, I still don’t know what to say; but I figure if I just start typing, the words will come.
I am glad to say that [...]


I’ve been in my relationship for several years now.  I love him more than anyone or anything else in this world.  I believe he loves me, too.  But the last two years have been very difficult.   We had discussions about being with one another forever.   But when we had those discussions, his life was different.  [...]


I ran across this poem while surfing the web (can’t go to sleep), and I almost broke down crying.  I kept reading it and reading it because this is EXACTLY the way I have felt about my relationship.  I have tried to express this very thing to him before and I am never sure that [...]


Self-Imposed

31Jul08

Lent is a season of soul-searching and repentance. It is a season for reflection and taking stock.  Since it’s July, it is clearly not Ash Wednesday.  But every once in a while we need to fake like it’s Ash Wednesday and get our Lent on!
 
Periodic soul-searching is important…particularly when we’ve got things that we need [...]


Recently, I went out with this really sweet guy.  While he was younger than me in years, he had such an old soul.  Everywhere we went, though, I was injuring the guy.  In the restaurant, in the parking lot…it was a mess.  But he was really nice about it.  Finally, I’m leaving for the evening [...]


Life is full of ironies.  With all the drama I am going through right now in my personal life, it always seems as though my classes are reflective of where I am.
Case in point:  my current class is called Psychology of Personal Adjustment.  Ha.  The class just started last week and already it’s rough.  There [...]


I pride myself on being able to withstand a lot of ish and keeping it moving.  And while that may be good sometimes, it’s not good all the time.  Especially when the reason you can keep it moving is because you are not dealing with things.  I’m realizing that a lot of my being able [...]


I’ve never been one to be motivated by selfishness (at least not consciously).  I am typically very willing to do for my friends before I do for myself, and I usually think of them before I think of me…without thinking twice about it.  So it is really blowing me that I am having such a [...]


Today, I had a very open, deep conversation with Sir that really made me see something.  When you try to hold on to a person, and they are not being so cooperative, it’s better to just let it go.  I know it’s easier said than done.  T  R  U  S  T     M  E.   But I [...]


People love to have pity parties…and the part that sucks is that they’re always trying to invite you.  Most of the time, you’re sucked in and don’t even realize that you just went from passerby to straight up honoree in that party.  Today was one of those days where everyone wanted to have a pity [...]
