There are people who can walk away from you. And hear me when I tell you this! When people can walk away from you: let them walk.  I don't want you to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to ( Read more... )

The great thing about growing older is that true and forever friendships solidifies.  There’s nothing greater than knowing that you have a handful of friends that will always be there for you - through thick and thin, the good, the bad, and as a friend likes to tell me, “hate the bastards you can’t hate”.  What are friends for?

“I thank God for ( Read more... )

I don't know why - but every so often, I need to know that he's still there for me.  I love this man for being a part of my life … I am reminded every so often of why I loved him so much and why I have a hard time loving other men.

before i start on random thought writing process... i want to make it clear that my writing here is #1 - for my own purpose and #2 - to keep in touch with those that are dear to me as I do not get to speak to them on a regular basis.  this is not a forum for anyone to feel slighted by what I write ( Read more... )

talking with hockeyislife  today about our childhood years.  i long for those young days when you truly couldn't see beyond the present.  call it selfish but it was simple then.  being naive wasn't so bad when you were young ... and even at this adult stage, ignorance can still be bliss.

It's funny - at the early part of this year, my professional life was just chaos and I took a good verbal and emotional beating but you know ...
