Think on these things.

• Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

Sometimes it is hard to be nice to peolpe when you are facing problems or if they are being unkind to you. But you must always remember to 'do unto others as you would have them do unto you'.

• A sharp tongue can cut your own throat.

Think before you speak!

• If you want your dreams to come true, you mustn't oversleep.

(I'm gonna need to work on this)

• Of all the things you wear, your expression is the most important.

Smile :-)

• The best vitamin for making friends..... B1.

You reap what you sow.

• The happiness of your life depends on the quality of your thoughts.

Dream big! Aim for the highest achievable goals.

• The heaviest thing you can carry is a grudge.

Let go and let God deal with it.

• If you lack the courage to start, you have already finished.

• Ideas won't work unless 'you' do.

• Your mind is like a parachute...it functions only when open.

• The 10 commandments are not a multiple choice.

• The pursuit of happiness is the chase of a lifetime! It is never too late to become what you might have been.

As long as you have breath... there is hope!

• Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Forget about the one's who don't. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.

• Friends are like balloons; once you let them go, you might not get them back. Sometimes we get so busy with our own lives and problems that we may not even notice that we've let them fly away. Sometimes we are so caught up in who's right and who's wrong that we forget what's right and wrong.

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!!!

SLOW FADE

by Casting Crowns

Be careful little eyes what you see
It's the second glance that ties your hands as darkness pulls the strings
Be careful little feet where you go
For it's the little feet behind you that are sure to follow

It's a slow fade when you give yourself away
It's a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
When you give yourself away
People never crumble in a day
It's a slow fade, it's a slow fade

Be careful little ears what you hear
When flattery leads to compromise, the end is always near
Be careful little lips what you say
For empty words and promises lead broken hearts astray

It's a slow fade when you give yourself away
It's a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
When you give yourself away
People never crumble in a day

The journey from your mind to your hands
Is shorter than you're thinking
Be careful if you think you stand
You just might be sinking

It's a slow fade when you give yourself away
It's a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
When you give yourself away
People never crumble in a day

Daddies never crumble in a day
Families never crumble in a day

Oh be careful little eyes what you see
Oh be careful little eyes what you see
For the Father up above is looking down in love
Oh be careful little eyes what you see

Wrong choice?

Choosing to hide away and not deal with problems is usually a bad choice. But in some cases hiding/shying away could be the solution to the problem.

I'm still not sure as to wheter or not this is a bad choice. I have decided that in order to bring this falling back in love with mon ami to to an end I should also halt our friendship, in other words I'm avoiding him as much as possible so I won't be reminded of how awesome he is. However, I don't think this is a good approach since I still have to see him everyday and he's been so wonderful to me I don't want to be mean to him but I can't seem to pull off this avoiding him thing without being a bitch.

What should I do?!!!

I need help!!!

*why couldn't I still just be in love with the idea of being in love?

My FML story

Have you ever visited the website fmylife.com? It's pretty cool. When you feel like your life is messed up just go on over and read about people with really messed up lives. Some stories are funny and some are just... sad.

However, when you have a story that is worthy to be posted on fmylife.com, nothing, ABSOLUTELY nothing can cheer you up.

So, here is my fmylife story.

On Friday, for some unknown reason I was completely and totally crushing on a friend of mine. Well, if you have been around here for awhile you will know who I'm talking about. This friend has been the topic of numerous my posts, anything involving 'mon ami'.

Anywho... like I was saying, I was really loving this here dude on Friday so much so that my arms kept trying to hug him. Just when I finally decided to let my arms do their thing, his girlfriend called. FML #1.

On Saturday, I really missed this here dude so I decided to talk to him. So I go online and say hi. He responds we exchange a few sentences then he seemed to disappear, so I said 'later' and left. Guess he didn't want to talk. FML#2.

Sunday, I rise with the morning sun, there were no birds singing outside my window but I didn't think much of it. I start studying and waited for this here dude to come online so we could talk. Things are going ok. We aren't really talking but I wasn't missing him. I was alright. Another friend comes online and in our convo decides it would be a good idea to tell me that this here dude and his girl celebrated their anniversary the day before. I am officially depressed. The information was supposed to make me not want him anymore. FAIL.

I still love him. FML #3.

Three strikes you are out. :'(


*FML - fuck my life.


Feel free to find this amusing. I might some time in the future.

HAVE A BETTER DAY THAN I AM!!!

Midnight thoughts of you....

untitled

to love and be loved is the greatest feeling ever
it takes you to the top of the highest mountains
and throws you down into the deepest valleys
but when all is said and done
theres nothing that can compare
to the feeling i feel

whenever you are here.

Perfection in the midst of imperfection

As I stand here before you today

Looking into your eyes

I see love like I've never seen it before

The smile upon your face

That cause wrinkles at the corners of your lips;

I see, Imperfection in the midst of perfection.

You take my hand

Say the words I've long wished to hear

Joy and fear saturate my being

I open my mouth and fight to speak

Words that are punctuated by sobs;

I hear, Imperfection in the midst of perfection.

This love we have created

This love that withstands all

This love that helps me rise

This love that remains true

This love that is you.

I feel, Perfection in the midst of imperfection.

Happy Valentine's Day Babe. I love you today, tomorrow and forever.

He's just not that into you

Once upon a summer day, in a far way state, a dear friend handed me a pretty pink and green book. As she handed me the book she said, "You really should read this. It might help". I was excited to see what wonderful stories and lessons this little pink and green book had in store for me. Then my eyes caught the title, 'He's just not that into you'. I looked up at this dear friend with a confused and somewhat sad expression and mumbled "who's not into me?". She responsed "him" and pointed to the very handsome guy sitting at the circulation desk in the library. The guy who had been winking and smiling at me for over a month but had not asked me out. This confused and saddened me even more so I said "I don't want him. But...why isn't he?". She put her arm around my shoulders and said "just read the book."

That night I spent hours reading this book that I had now deemed 'evil' because of its brutally honest information. When I finally read the last word of the last sentence of the last paragraph on the last page I realized that my friend was right, he was just not into me. This depressed me.

The day after I was introduced to thebook I returned it to my friend and vowed to never love again. I decided I'd be single forever.

Everytime I hear those words , 'he's just not that into you', whether it's a line in a movie, a quote in a book, or it's being said to a poor heartbroken girl, I see the very handsome guy at the circulation desk smiling at me and I feel sick.

Why do guys play with our feelings? Why can't they just be real?

I can handle the truth, we (girls) all can. And in this case, the sooner we learn the truth the better. So go ahead, lay it all out. Don't feel bad for us because we will soon be over you!



P.S.

The movie 'He's just not that into you' that is based on this very informative book is now in theathres (at least in the US), go see it! My girlfriends and I went to see the movie today. It was pretty good. I didn't really appreciate the fact that it had a typical fairytale ending but I can live with it (deep down somewhere I'm glad it did Keeping hope alive....).
