do onto others as you would have others do onto you.

quite literally the Golden rule.

I dropped off the letter to Brooks this morning. I couldn’t go another day with it just sitting there, staring at me. I just hope it’s the closure that I need. So far so good. When I got back in my car after dropping it through his mail slot, I was all giggly and energetic…..a huge sense of relief came over me and a feeling of freedom. He is no longer allowed to rule my emotions and control my day with thoughts of what he said and didn’t do. It’s over. I’m moving on.

I didn’t hear you say you’re sorry

The fault must be mine

I wish you all the best of luck

At finding somebody more like you

You said you’d love me always, truly

I must have changed

Cause you don’t need me like you used to

I hope you find somebody more like you

I hope you finally find someone

Someone that you trust

And give her everything

I hope you meet someone your height

So you can see eye-to-eye

With someone as small as you

You came out of nowhere, made me smile

Then tore me in two

Saying, “We’re very different people”

So dear, I hope you find somebody more like you

So, I have been eating horrible this week. I am usually a healthy eater and I work out at least three to four times a week. But this week I’ve only gone to the gym twice and I think a majority of my diet has consisted of chocolate. I’ve had five pieces of those fabulous, individually wrapped dove chocolates. I don’t know if I keep eating them because I really want it or if it’s those little sayings each one has written on the inside of the wrapper. Today I’ve gotten:

-Smile before bed. You’ll sleep better.

-Discover yourself.

-Remember your first everything.

-When two hearts race, both win.

-Follow your instincts.

I keep eating them in hopes of finding the one that says: He’ll come back to you.

Life is getting a bit easier for you today, thanks to friendly coworkers or helpful kids who want to see you at your best. Enjoy the good energy and get ready for some intensely good times to come!

Every day does get a little bit easier. The mornings are the worst. I really do need some good times…..

I haven’t blogged in a while, but honeslty I don’t really know what to say. I have a lot I need to get off my chest….but haven’t found the right way to let it out.

My dear friend suggested though that my blog is the perfect place to say what’s on my mind, even if it’s just parts of the bigger thing that’s upsetting me so much.

So, here it goes…..priorities. What are your priorities in life? What should they be? I like to think, actually I know my priorities are my family, my friends, my health and my job. As much as I love my job, it doesn’t make me who I am….my life and happiness and who I am comes from family and friends. I could not survive without them around me and the support they give me.

A person you love that doesn’t make you a priority, do they really love you back? If you’re not a priority, is it possible for them to make an effort? Every relationship takes work, but you have to want it to work first. That’s when the priority thing kicks in: where does this person fit in on my priority list? Is he/she worth making the list? If you love someone, I think that should be a yes.
