...love...

After awhile you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul and you learn that love doesn’t mean possession and company doesn’t mean security. And you begin to learn that kisses aren’t contracts and presents aren’t promises and you being to accept your defeats with your head up and your eyes ahead with the grace of an adult not the grief of a child. And you learn to build your roads today because tomorrow’s ground is too uncertain for plans and futures have ways of falling down in mid-flight. After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much, so plant your own garden and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers. And you learn that you really can endure, that you really are strong and that you really do have worth… and you learn… and you learn.

Decisions

I am debating several big decisions that could seriously impact my life. Obviously, being big, they would. It's time to break out the Pro/Con worksheet and lay it all out there.

On a great big, happy note - Winks is in town!!!!! I get to see his wonderful face tonight (and hopefully tomorrow night also). It's only been ohhhhhhh...six or seven years! He's lucky I love him or I would be seriously upset :)

Happy Thursday to all!

Thankful

I realize it's only March, but I'm going to make a "thankful" list...

I am thankful for:
  • God - saving me by dying for me
  • My family. They have saved my life over and over. Literally and figuratively.
  • My friends. My wonderfully awesome, absolutely amazing friends.
  • My job. Blessed to have one in these tough times.
My small list that I remind myself of every day is why I am the person I am today. I love who I am and I couldn't be this person without every situation I have been in.
