Learning... 8/10/09

What I've Learned...

Covet the best gifts,
Love who you are but take suggestions for positive change,
Blot out insecurities with self-acceptance.

Always be actively working towards a better you than you were the year, month, week, day, hour, minute, second before...

"I am grateful that, now I can see, that I am apart of everything, and everything is apart of me. You're amazing..." -India.Arie

For my life, health, happiness, love and the pursuit of these things, and even for all those things I forget to be grateful for ... Thank You

Paralysis ...8/4/2009

WHEN WE CAST OUR FEARS OFF INTO DARKNESS IN EFFORTS TO RID OURSELVES OF THEM, THEY THEN APPEAR IN OUR SHADOWS TO FOLLOW US, CONSTANTLY ON THE BACKS OF HEELS OR THE TIPS OF OUR TOES... I'VE FOUND THAT THE ONLY WAY TO ESCAPE OUR SHADOWS IS TO TURN OFF THE LIGHTS, SO WE CANNOT BE AFRAID OF THE DARK... FEAR IS A DILEMMA, THERE IS ALWAYS A CRITICAL DECISON TO MAKE
...EITHER ACCEPT YOUR SITUATION OR CHANGE IT, WHATEVER YOU CHOOSE, DO SO KNOWING THAT IT TAKES AMAZING COURAGE TO OVERCOME THE PARALYSIS OF FEAR.

"WHERE DID MY BABY GO?
I WONDER WHERE SHE WENT OFF TO
I MISS MY BABY SO,
I'M CALLING BUT I CAN'T GET THROUGH

PLEASE TELL THAT GIRL IF YOU MEET HER,
SOMEONE'S LONGING TO SEE HER,

WHERE DID MY BABY GO I WISH THAT SHE WOULD GET BACK SOON
GET BACK SOON..." -JOHN LEGEND


Where is my inspiration? Where has it gone?
Is it vacationing? Will it be gone long?
When it leaves me, where does it go?
And when it returns, how will I know?

SEASONS 7/18/09

"GOODBYE SUMMER, HATE TO SEE YOU GO,
I WASN'T READY FOR AUTUMN WINDS TO BLOW,
SO LONELY...
WE HAD A FINE TIME HOLDING HANDS IN JUNE,
WARM IN THE SUNSHINE WATCHING LOVE IN BLOOM,
WHERE ARE YOU NOW?
MY HEART IS FROXEN IN THIS PLACE
WAITING FOR ANOTHER SUMMERS' DAY
TO BRING YOU BACK MY WAY" -INDIA.ARIE

If it is indeed purposed for us to have only a periodic relationship,
And if our time together is meant to be short-lived,
Let our season be amazing, our heartaches few, and our minds learn to take life as it is.

And if, in time, our season should come back around,
And love should lift our feet from the ground ,
Let our fall from love not be so harsh, and our journey back to Earth not be so hard

the worst thing

The worst thing ever is having to get over someone when you don't want to, but sometimes it's better to move on and let it hurt for a while and then start fresh... still, that's not what I want to do.

thankful...

♥My sincerest thanks and appreciation to morning who always rescues me from the darkness of night and marks the clean slate of a new day. You are my reset button and my hero, every morning is a good one...
And to night... though intimidating and frightening your darkness admonishes me to remember how fleeting sunshine is and promotes appreciation for daylight, time spent with you is always filled with lessons learned. You are my reminder and instructor, many thanks for that♥
