"Why do I do the things I do?" Why was I so quick to trust another? Why do I always see only the good in someone? Why do I let myself be fooled? When I meet you, I meet you with a clean slate. I assume that you are good, someone to call a friend. I talk with you, laugh with you, share good times and bad with you. So why did you want to fool me? Why did you want to hurt me? Do I have gullible written all over my face? Is it so obvious that my heart is on my sleeve? Why did you stop being a friend and start being a foe? Do I bring that out in you? Is it my fault? I know it is my fault, I know what I do is wrong. I have a need to feel loved and wanted. I need to feel like I am useful to someone. I guess I will never learn from my pain!! "Cyber Love" Did I find love?I thought it was real. I fought against it, I couldnt let myself feel. I cant do this, it isnt fair. I'm married and here, you are single and there. I fought like a warrior to protect my heart, But you made your way in and took a very big part. How is it when you reached out, I could feel your touch. So this is cyber love? Why does it hurt so much? I was happy, in love, and crazy about you. You took what you wanted and broke me in two. I was sure it was love, I believed everything you said. You filled my heart with love and your words filled my head. This was perfect to you my love, I gave you all my trust. So this is cyber love? Why does it hurt so much???? Old Age. My dayz of youth r over My torch of life iz out What used to be my sex appeal Is now my water spout Once of its own accord It would from my trousers spring But now I have a full time job To find the blasted thang. It used to be embarrassin' The way it would behave For nearly every mornin' It stood n watched me shave But as old age approaches It sure gives me the blues Too see it hang it's wretched head And watch me clean my toes. Our Lives We convince ourselves that life will be better after we get married, have a baby, then another. Then we are frustrated that the kids aren't old enough and we'll be more content when they are. After that, we're frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with. We will certainly be happy when they are out of that stage. We tell ourselves that our life will be complete when our spouse gets his or her act together, when we get a nicer car, are able to go on a nice vacation, when we retire. The truth is, there's no better time to be happy than right now. If not now, when? Your life will always be filled with challenges. It's best to admit this to yourself and decide to be happy anyway. One of my favorite quotes comes from Alfred D. Souza. He said, "For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin-real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, or a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life." This perspective has helped me to see that there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way. So, treasure every moment that you have and treasure it more because you shared it with someone special, enough to spend your time...and remember that time waits for no one. So, stop waiting until you finish school, until you go back to school, until you lose ten pounds, until you gain ten pounds, until you have kids, until your kids leave the house, until you start work, until you retire, until you get married, until you get divorced, until Friday night, until Sunday morning, until you get a new car or home, until your car or home is paid off, until spring, until summer, until fall, until winter, until you are off welfare, until the first or fifteenth, until your song comes on, until you've had a drink, until you've sobered up, until you die, until you are born again to decide that there is no better time than right now to be happy. Happiness is a journey, not a destination. Thought for the day: Work like you don't need money, Love like you've never been hurt, and Dance like no one's watching. Some people come into our lives and quickly go.. Some people become friends and stay a while.. leaving beautiful footprints on our hearts... and we are never quite the same because we have made a good friend!! Yesterday is history. Tomorrow a mystery. Today is a gift. That's why it's called the present! I think this is special.....live and savor every moment... .. this is not a dress rehearsal! I've learned that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is stalk them and hope they panic and give in. I've learned that no matter how much I care, some people are just assholes. I've learned that it takes years to build up trust, and it only takes suspicion, not proof, to destroy it. I've learned that you can get by on charm for about fifteen minutes. After that, you'd better have a big dick or huge tits. I've learned that you shouldn't compare yourself to others - they are more fucked up than you think. I've learned that you can keep puking long after you think you're finished. I've learned that we are responsible for what we do, unless we are celebrities. I've learned that regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is at first, the passion fades, and there had better be a lot of money to take its place. I've learned that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down will be the ones who do. I've learned that we don't have to ditch bad friends, because their dysfunction makes us feel better about ourselves. I've learned that no matter how you try to protect your children, they will eventually get arrested and end up in the local paper. I've learned that the people you care most about in life are taken from you too soon and all the less important ones just never go away. I've learned to say "Fuck 'em if they can't take a joke" in 6 languages.
