life just isn't .

Life isn't about keeping score. It's not about how
many people call you and it's not about who you've
dated, are dating or haven't dated at all. It isn't
about who you've kissed, or which
guy or girl likes you. It's not about your shoes or
your hair or the color of your skin or where you live
or go to school. It's not about grades,
money, clothes, or colleges that accept you or not.
Life isn't about if you have lots of friends, or if
you are alone, and it's not about how accepted or
unaccepted you are.

Life just isn't about that.


Life is about who you love and who you hurt. It's
about how you feel about yourself. It's about trust,
happiness and compassion. It's about sticking up for
your friends and replacing inner hate with love. Life
is about avoiding jealousy, overcoming ignorance and
building confidence. It's about what you say and what
you mean. It's about seeing people for who they are
and not what they have. It's about friendship, used as a sanctity or as a weapon.
It's about what you say and mean, maybe hurtful or heartening.
It's not about starting rumors and contributing to petty gossip.
It's about what judgments you pass and why and who your judgments are spread to.
It's not about who you've ignored with full control and intention.
It's not about jealousy, fear, ignorance, and revenge.

Most of all, life is about choosing to use your life to
touch someone else in a way that could never have been achieved otherwise.

The above piece is actually a re-post from another blog I had...but it's something that I read often and truly feel deep in my soul. I've had a lot of time to think and be with myself without outside interference and I came to a conclusion..I waste a lot of my energy on people who don't deserve it. I try so hard to make sure everyone is happy..comfortable..and 70% of the people I do all this for, give me their ass to kiss or show me no compassion or comfort in my time of need. Then I get these bogus ass excuses like"I thought you were cool" or "That's just my personality..sorry." Well,if you cared to ask, you would know I'm not "cool" and if your personality is that cold and unfeeling , perhaps you should limit your contact with other humans.




disclaimer: if you have to email/call/txt me and ask who or what this blog is about..it's probably about you.

love isn't about perfection.

it’s about imperfection and flaws and mistakes. it’s about the mess. love is an emotional train wreck, but i want the mess . i want the train wreck. there will be days when we are so tired of each other, when we want to throw in the towel and be done with it. there will be days when i want to wring your neck and you want to pull your hair out. sometimes i will drive you crazy, and sometimes you will annoy me to no end. we will fight and we will be frustrated. but we will also laugh and laugh and laugh. we’ll act like kids and have fun and never grow up. we will be enslaved by our passion for life and for each other . we’ll stay up late and talk about everything that makes us tick and all the things we wake up for. we’ll eat dessert first and kiss each other unexpectedly. we will explore new places and fall asleep together. fair warning— i hog the covers and i like to cuddle and sometimes i snore. i will entwine my legs with yours and we’ll dream tangled in each other. i...

Oh, sweet blog - how I've neglected thee. :( I have a great reason tho - LIFE . I found one...it was buried under some of my Vans, like 2 Coach bags & an old swiss roll (go figure) *smile* But - I do need to blog. So here's my promise. Starting Sept. 1st, I will blog EVERYDAY - even if it's just one word/sentence. I have so much to say, but I need to sort my thoughts out.. I should have it done by then. xoxo

shame on me - no, shame on you.

"If someone tells you who they are, believe them." Maya Angelou I don't think I've fully embraced that quote until now. A person is always going to present who they are & what they're about - and sometimes, they don't even realize it. It can be in a joke..or maybe a story told about another person. Somehow, someway - they let you know EXACTLY where they stand. I can be honestly enough and say that I have gotten caught up.. I have found myself believing that my bullshit meter is in working order and that NOTHING can get past me. Yeah- THAT didn't work out so well. So, here I sit...writing this blog with a heavy heart & confused spirit. I have a bad habit of wanting to rescue people..and somewhere along the way, I forget to save the most important person - me. I give people way too many chances...way too many opportunities to mistreat & destroy my heart. I put their feelings & wants before my own - and even when they quack LOUD as day, I ref...
