Farewell to a good friend...

Today I had to really show how much I loved my friend by letting her go. This was a long time coming and I know ultimately it is what is best for both of us. She deserves someone who can give her more and that is just not me. My dog was amazing. She was loyal, loving, funny, quirky and everything that anyone could ask in a best friend. I'm so grateful for the years of love, loyalty and friendship she gave me.

I know it's silly, but you have to understand that for 6 years, she was there when I was alone which gave me security. When I was sad, she would snuggle with me and give me kisses. She rejoiced with me, she played with me, we smiled together and ultimately, we took care of each other. We went through a lot together including my divorce. She wasn't just a pet, so was family.

So that being said, I would like to say to my friend starting a new chapter in her life: I hope you understand why I let you go...it was because I loved you enough to give you better. They say "sometimes loving someone means letting them go" This rings true to why I gave you away. I hope you find someone AMAZING who will love and give you everything you deserve and more! Finally, just know, you will always be in my heart. Goodbye.

Do you think I'm a fool?

Its funny that certain people always thought I would be just a pee on. Well, it's nice for once to see you sweating the bullets! You see, I hate being peed on, but I also know what goes around comes around and with a little bit of hard work and some good karma, all the sudden I don't seem so weak! I love how you think you can play the emotional cards on me such as "Leaving the love of family and close friends!"...What you don't realize is that I don't care...It's not that I don't care about the love of family and close friends mind you, because I do, it's that all my family and friends are completely supportive and excited for me about this, so trying to use them against me is pointless because I already have "their blessings". I've got the love and support from the people I CARE about! It's just that you think I'm impressionable and naive, but what it has come down to is that I say anything just to shut you up! You think your...

"The Lead of Love"...

"Looking back at the road so far The journey's left it's share of scars. Mostly from leaving the narrow and straight. Looking back it is clear to me, that a man is more than the sum of his deeds, And how you make good of this mess I've made is a profound mystery. Looking back you know you had to bring me through all that I was so afraid of though I questioned the sky now I see why...Had to walk the rocks to see the mountain view looking back I see the lead of love Looking back I can finally see how failures bring humility(I'd rather have wisdom and pain) Brings me to my knees (Than be a comfortable old fool)Helps me see my need for thee..." - "The Lead of Love" from Caedmon's Call. I have really been working on putting the pieces of my life back together and I think that one of the things that have been missing in my life is my spiritual growth. It's something I've been thinking and missing for some time now and think that maybe ...

Facing Fears Head On

We all get scared from time to time. It's not unusual, it's not a feeling only subjected to specific individuals, it can influence anyone. The trick is to admit your scared, figure out why, and face it straight on. I think this is something that I've been facing daily since my divorce (and definitely before but it's been more prominently noticeable since my divorce), back then it was "how will I do this on my own?", "will anyone ever love me or am I even capable of loving someone back?" and maybe the funniest of the bunch: "Am I going to become one of those 'spinsters' with 20 cats?!!?" (I don't even really like cats that much! LOL! I much prefer a dog!) But I think this experience here has been the scariest of all experiences. These are new fears like fitting in, adjusting to the culture, acceptance, being able to work and make a good living, driving, etc. It plays on my mind everyday. I know I can do this, I know that 6 mo...
