Just Love
I’ve put so many restrictions on love: how and why I should love, how and why I should BE loved. Whatever happened to just loving for the sake of it? Nothing in return, just giving love to others despite what my past notions may have been on giving and receiving love. Until I free myself...
If you have to choose one…
Yesterday I ran into one of My. Mr’s friends, and it was so pleasant. He’s known my Mr. for a while and was there through our 7 years on and off, chaos. As I left he said to me “If you are thinking of choosing one… he’s the one”. It made my heart smile and...
Earcandy- Beyonce “Ave Maria”
I woke up with this song in my head yesterday and this morning, so I had to post it. Maybe it was the I AM Thanksgiving special that was on, that made me pull out this album again. I love this whole album but this song specifically is magical, makes me think of my Mr....
One year ago, I started this blog…
Today marks a year since I started this blog, with the lovely help of some friends. When I started this blog I simply wanted a place to vent, share my stories and I hoped to bring comfort to women going through the same things. I was heartbroken over My Mr. at the time, we had...
Inspiration: Hurdles
When you start to make positive changes to improve yourself, hurdles will present themselves to try to get you to quit. You have to keep going, get over those hurdles and you win. - My Mr.
Inspiration: Take care of your spirit
Always make sure to take care of your spirit first, everything else can work out but if your spirit is broken you can’t work anything else out. -My Mr.
Handwritten love
Nothing like a handwritten letter, touches the soul ! Last Wednesday My. Mr. left to go back to school, and he mailed me a letter before boarding the plane. Every morning like a little girl, I would rush to the office hoping to see it at my desk. Friday I walked it, and found the...
4 week countdown + 4 year countdown X Me = Please don’t go
In just about 4 weeks, My Mr. will be gone back overseas to school. I am his biggest fan when it comes to the sacrifices and dedication he puts forth towards his education. I would never tell him not to leave, just as when he began medical school 2 years ago I didn’t tell him...
Thank you …
I was having a conversation late last night with one of my girls, she was in a bit of a funk. She was also being very hard on herself, so I felt the need to show her that everyone goes through their ups and downs, and its perfectly normal. While I was reminiscing about all...
Caution: Broken Heel Moments are closer in the mirror than they appear
It is possible to anticipate something to be such a Broken Heel Moment – to then realize that it was nothing at all. It’s happened to me twice this past week, worked myself into a frenzy to realize that it really wasn’t that bad. I then thought about how silly I was for anticipating the...
He loves me through my broken heel moments
(I love this picture, I want this on top of my bed…) I am still in the mindset of cheating and cheaters, since finding out about my father over the weekend. When I heard about the news, I wasn’t supposed to know, and although I tried to act like I wasn’t fased by it. I...
Broken Heel Moment – Clock Speed
My Mr. and I have this thing we call “clock speed”, we use this term to refer to the speed of things in our relationship. It used to be that I was going “too fast” and he was going “slower”. For the last while, we have been on the same “clock speed”. No arguments, no...
Inspiration – Perpetual Service
“Living a life of perpetual service” – My Mr. I was out with my guy the other day, and he said this to me and actually asked me to write a post about it. I will dedicate a whole post to it later but for now, I thought this was such an inspirational quote. I...
