...love hurts....Some are my words and some are not....but they work ya know?

If you press me to say why I love him, I feel that it can only be expressed by replying, "Because it was him; because it was me. Because we were us."I'd like to think I'll be completely happy again, but I really need to stop and cry right now, and sometimes I wish I could scream at you, and just show you what you do to me. Even without words...especially without words.

You never realize how much you love someone until they're gone. You never realize that...yes...once their love surrounded you but now...what do you have? Memories. Why does love hurt so much, when it's supposed to be such a good thing? Why do we dwell on the past, when the future is what matters? It's something that...yea...I guess it can't be helped but...maybe it's harder for me than it is for someoneelse. Faint smells of cologne...a song on the radio…a movie…or a single word…these are things that bring back those memories. But, you can't hide from these things...because...they're there and no matter how hard you try to, they'll always be there. Even when you have moved on to the future…and those things don't trigger the memories as much as before…they still do. You can't forget someone that you've loved...you may want to ... but you can't. Love cannot be forgotten... no matter how hard we try…and how much we think it'llease the pain...it will always be there...forever.

I don't know why that damn song is suddenly playing on the radio all the time. How many years ago was it popular?? It's like I'm being teased and it sucks. Is it supposed to mean something? Is it just coincidence? Should I just change the station?? Should I start carrying a CD case with me so I don't hear it?? LOL And isn't that rich...how many of the CD's that I have bought in the last few years were because he told me to "listen to this"?? Like ALL of them...Blessid Union of Souls, Mike Corrado, Less than Jake, Allison Krauss, Daniel Bedingfield, Finch...the list goes on and on...

Maybe Talk Radio is where I need to go??? LOL

Good Morning Everyone!!
If you know me, you know sleep isn't something I spend alot of time doing. When I am up, I think. I search for understanding and purpose. Here is the "thought" for the "week". In quotes, cause the other thing ya'll know about me is I like to write...alot!

"What is a friend? A single soul in two bodies."—Aristotle

You can have a lot of acquaintances, but only a few people will become your best friends. These are kindred spirits, whose souls were "knit together." Friendships like this will endure, even though the intensity of the friendship will ebb and flow over time.

"A true friend stabs you in the front."—Oscar Wilde
"An honest answer is the sign of true friendship."-- Proverbs 24:26

Leave it to Oscar Wilde to lay out an important truth with such wry humor. A true friend is one who helps you see the truth, even if it hurts. This doesn't mean we can go around stabbing our friends with hurtful words. Rather, it means being up front with friends about important issues, raising questions with love, never gossiping or putting them down to others behind their backs.

"I do not wish to treat friendships daintily, but with the roughest courage. When they are real, they are not glass threads or frost-work, but the solidest thing we know."—Ralph Waldo Emerson

Real friendships don't just happen, and they aren't maintenance free. Ask questions both in conversation with your friend and when you're alone: "How would you describe our friendship?" Friendships take patience, time and effort. But, Oh, the rewards!!!
So to my friends....Love you and appreciate you and the times we can spend together and the times we're apart, but thinking of one another.

Off to work~~
