Why is it that
Bad things happen to good people
And
Good things can’t happen for certain people?

Just a thought for today...

Break down the walls and try to let go, its the best thing for you to say goodbye not hello...

Today we say goodbye to you
Can’t believe your gone
You were taken way too soon
You had a hard battle, fought your best
In the end God needed you more
But I thank him for our time together, I am truly blessed
I know your in a better place, but it still hurts without you
This isn’t our final goodbye, it’s see you someday soon
Please watch over and protect us everyday
Wait for us when our time is up so we can be reunited together someday
In remembrance of Gene, We Pray...

Everyday is a good day
Even if things don’t always go your way
Look for the positive, spread the love  
Everyday is a good day
No matter what!

Sometimes I wonder if my best is good enough or good enough is my best...

To the days where you
Wake up
Say good morning to your husband
He kisses you “in that way”
You head back to bed
Have a little fun
Start your day
With a smile on your face
Good morning to all
It’s going to be a great day!

Good morning kiss
Starts out like this
I lean in to start my day
He looks at me and says
“ why are you lingering”
As he caresses my breast
I immediately melt and want to undress
Good mornings start with a kiss
Sometimes ends up and unexpected bliss

Standing alone as the sun falls down
Painting a colorful, swirling background
Thankful for today and all that I’ve got
Learning new things, taking a new shot
You may miss all the throws you don’t take
But you’ll soon find out your fate
A cool spring breeze is amazing and nice
Here’s to another tomorrow, I’m saying goodnight
Sleep tight

Goodnight
Sleep tight
Release your worries
Your dreams are in sight
Close your eyes
Into a deep sleep
Dream away
Tomorrow is a clean sheet
A new day, a new start
A blank page
A fresh new start
Sleep tight
Goodnight
Dreaming all through the night

Don’t refer to things as
“The good old times”
Refer to them as memories
“That you hold for a lifetime”

Love and take care of yourself first
For then people may see you as a good person to all

Tick tock
Tick tock
Watch the hands
Go round the clock
Minutes fade
Hours pass by
Don’t take a moment for granted
For if yo do
Time will just pass and fly
You’ll never know why
Seconds
Minutes
Hours
Of you life, you can’t get back
Unless you stop the time

Sometimes you just have to go with the flow and sometimes you have to fight the current to make you go exactly where you want to go...

Just like the tiny grains of sand...
...I carry a little piece of each of you in my heart, always...

It’s tough to grasp the magnitude of your feelings
Holding on to the last string of your rope
Hands are burning from the friction of your hands
Fighting to hold on as long as you can
Once you calm down
Try to relax
You will find out your much stronger then you realize
Where you can find yourself climbing back up towards the top

Never give up
Always hold on tight
Life will throw you curve *****
Try to hold on, with all your might...

Grasshopper

Only able to jump forward

Be like a grasshopper

You opened your eyes and woke up today
When someone else stayed sleeping and passed away....
Be happy that you have at least another day
It’s the little things in life to be grateful for on this cold winters day

We all complain that we don’t get enough gifts throughout our lives....
But everyday is a gift from above...
We open our eyes everyday and wake up
I feel this is the greatest gift above all, the most amazing gift to ever be given...

My greatest loss
Is my biggest achievement
How ironic?

Through the wind and through the raindrops
Through the dense fog behind the trees
You find the beauty hidden within thy self
Fulfilling ones hopes and dreams

Finding the beauty
Captured behind grey skies
Finding someone else’s story in disguise

There is no time limit on grief
Grief has no time limit
No matter how you say
No matter what you believe
Close your eyes
Breath
And
See
They are  always with you
No matter how much time has passed
When the time is right
You’ll have a blast from the past
We all deal with grief differently
It will never get any easier
You just cry less tears
No matter how many days, months or years have gone by
Just always know
Their always right by your side...

The loss of you
Still doesn’t feel true
Yet here I am missing you


Missing you
comes in waves
Just like the unexpected
mid summer rain

Grieving is hard
Loss is tough
No matter how much time
Unexpectedly, now you shine

Gaining your wings
Sadness it brings  
Your pain is free
But missing you who I can’t see

Loss is hard
Knowing or unexpected
Hurts both the same
I will miss you and I love you
Everyday

Take all the time you need
Grieving the loss of me
But always remember
I’m never to far away
I’m always there in your heart
Forever to stay...

As the waters trickle down
Down the rocks and over the ground
Rapid waters never stand still
Always be grounded
Love what you feel

As the waters trickle down
Down the rocks and over the ground
Rapid waters never stand still
Always be grounded
Love what you feel

Suddenly, you realize that grounding yourself, makes the center of gravity, less rocky…

Even a wilted flower who is losing its color and hanging its head, still has life when you continue to water it....

You don’t change yourself
You grow into the person
Your meant to become

Flowers can not grow without water
Your heart can not grow without love

Don’t look at me and say
“ Wow you’ve changed”
I’ll look back at you and say
“No, I’ve grown”

Ever feel like your growing apart from someone
           Yet feel closer then ever?

Growing her wings as she makes mistakes and learns that failure is as beautiful as the day she was brought into this world..

We are one like the trees
Grow with a tiny seed
Planted like the roots to grow
Watered and sowed
Taking time to age
Learning along the way
Broken branches
Tiny holes
Cracking at the seems
Yet growing stronger
Into a beautiful, loving tree

It is such an amazing thing to see children grow and learn, but growing up is hard to watch, yet satisfying at the same time...

Growing up
Growing apart
Some friendships last
Where others make a new start
True friends stay
Always in your heart
Growing up
But hopefully not
Growing apart

You continue to grow into your wings
Understanding and accepting
The mental mind games
It’ll hit you at unexpected times
Processing it at face value
Yet knowing your never alone
Feeling it
Dealing with it
Growing with it
As you continue to soar
Allowing your wings to help your grow

Pick a card
Giving us some guidance
Let the cards fall where they may
Letting us know
All will be ok

I carry guilt with me everyday
Not being able to make you an aunt, our mother’s grandparents, and my husband a father
It haunts me all the time
Everyday I wonder why?
Anxiety
Depression
Sadness
And
Guilt
Just to name a few
Is a constant battle that I go through....

Low lying clouds
Oh so grey
Happiness is on its way

Will you always love me

Through the rough waters of life itself

Keeping afloat through the atmosphere

To cut all the dead weight off you...
.....is like lifting the dead weight off your shoulders....
....letting you feel free and beautiful...
