has this friend shipped?
A recent conversation got me to thinking about those friendships that have been lost along the way. As difficult as it was to understand why things had happened, i have to believe that God had a bigger plan in mind. I still do. I don’t think that it’s good to struggle with a friendship in which you don’t get anything in return. A friend is someone who is there to lift you up when...

“there’s no weakness in forgiveness”
excerpt from my story
He brushed the hair from my eyes. Never breaking from my gaze, he stepped closer to me.
I sighed.
Placing his hand in mine, he whispered, “close your eyes.”
His touch awakened me.

we choose to love
life is about love
love is based on...”

it's the little things
Life is so incredible… i’m finding the blessings in the little things. I’ve been weighed down with schoolwork lately and the bf has been so understanding. he just goes with the flow and roots me on when i’m feeling down and out. last night he reminded me just how much i enjoy having him in my life. I was running late for our dinner and a movie date (i didn’t think it...

can't stop smiling...
You´re better then the best I´m lucky just to linger in your life Cooler then the flip side of my pillow that´s right Completely unaware Nothing can compare to where you send me Lets me know that it´s ok yeah it´s ok And the moments where my good times start to fade You make me smile like the sun Fall out of bed sing like a bird Dizzy in my head spin like a record Crazy on a Sunday night...

dull-dull cloudy skies
the ominous clouds suited the day that i was to have.
you can learn a lot by having the conversations that you do not want to have. is it worth divulging the information that could make or break a relationship. is there strength in their character? there is if what you share does not send them running for the hills. and when you utter certain words, it makes you stronger to tell your truths....

blue skies over San Francisco
I was given a book as a gift this Christmas. Written in the 60s, it claims that 300 days out of the year there are blue skies over head. i plan to put this to a test. so day by day i will attempt to give a blue sky report. i love this city that i moved to a year ago and am continuing to enjoy exploring it’s hidden treasures with the ones i love.

the bridge
This year there have been a few setbacks. Goals that had been made were placed on hold as I waited upon other people. I need to stop waiting for other people to be ready to do the things that I want to do… I need to just get out there and do them. As the year winds down I reflect, as we all tend to do. This year has been filled with amazing moments as well as some crapnificent times. I wonder… did...

have you ever?
Have you ever met a person That fulfilled you deep inside… Someone who’s never failed you And stands, no matter what, always by your side. Someone who gives from their heart Who brings sunshine all around… Always smiling and laughing, Never seeming down. Have you ever watched a sunset Across the ocean shore… And been filled with love and peace, Never needing more? Have you ever...

corteo
In the end, we will all have to learn to fly, be it with wings, on a bicycle, it doesn’t matter. In the end, there will be a party attended by our friends, all those people who loved us so well, recalling memories, little details, fragrances of a life, will gather to honour us. There will be a bed, and a long pageant of emotion will play out before that bed. There will be angels, and if...

Shattered heart beat Frozen in time Looking for someone to hold And longing to be held at the same time I looked into his brown eyes Finding a home Some place warm I belonged to him We brought simplicity Laughter Kindness To an uncanny friendship

welcome to your destiny
life is full of phases. as we leave one part of ourselves behind, we develop something new. as this year comes to a close, i reflect on where i have been and where i am going. i can’t wait to see what’s in store for me. i’m growing in new ways. and allowing myself to choose my destiny. instead of doing what is expected, i’m deciding what path to take. i can’t wait for...
i'm a prickly pear
There have been so many thoughts swirling through my head these days. With the day-to-day complications of life, it’s a wonder that I keep rising again each day to do it all over. I wonder what it’s going to take to hit a breaking point, but so far, I just keep taking it. I’m strong. Is it egotistical to think of myself as one of the strongest people I know? Can I be my own hero? Not many people...
