Do Not Forward...

I get so many emails that include FW: in the beginning and I cringe. Sometimes I go through them and just delete them all, unless the title following the FW: interests me.

I am glad I did not delete this one, because I love it. It fits me. I needed it, and you may too!

Read on........

I Believe...
Just because two people argue,
it doesn't mean they don't love each other.
And just because they don't argue,
it doesn't mean they do love each other.

I Believe...
We don't have to change friends if
we understand that friends change.

I Believe..
No matter how good a friend is,
they're going to hurt you every once in a while and
you must forgive them for that.

I Believe...
True friendship continues to grow, even over
the longest distance..
The same goes for true love.

I Believe..
You can do something in an instant
that will give you heartache for life.

I Believe...
That it's taking me a long time
to become the person I want to be.

I Believe...
You should always leave loved ones with loving words.
It may be the last time you see them.

I Believe...
You can keep going long after you think you can't.

I Believe...
We are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.

I Believe...
Either you control your attitude or it controls you.

I Believe...
Money is a lousy way of keeping score.

I Believe...
My best friend and I, can do anything, or
nothing and have the best time.

I Believe...
Sometimes the people you expect to kick you when
you're down, will be the ones to help you get back up.

I Believe...
Maturity has more to do with what types of experiences
you've had and what you've learned from them and
less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated.

I Believe..
It isn't always enough, to be forgiven by others.
sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.

I Believe...
No matter how bad your heart is broken
the world doesn't stop for your grief.

I Believe...
Our background and circumstances may have
influenced who we are, but.
we are responsible for who we become.

I Believe...
Two people can look at the same
thing and see something totally different.

I Believe...
Your life can be changed in a matter of
hours by people who don't even know you.



I Believe...
Even when you think you have no more to give,
when a friend cries out to you -
you will find the strength to help.

I Believe...
Credentials on the wall do not make you a
decent human being.

I Believe...
You should send this to all the people
you believe in, I just did.

'The happiest of people don't necessarily have the
best of everything;
they just make the most of everything.'





AMEN!!

Knock Three Times!

When I was growing up my mom always listened to some really 'groovy' music. The seventies were just that, even though I am an 80's girl at heart.

Anyway, a couple of weeks ago, a facebook friend of mine posted this video and I was so thrilled to have a blast from the past. Not to mention, a reminder of my mom and her 'tunes'

Join in the fun for Musical Monday!

I lived to blog about it....

Where do I even begin? It has been so long.

I am still alive...thankfully! On December 19th, on our way to do some Christmas shopping, my best friend and I were in an accident. She was driving, and we were taking a two way road that we usually take to avoid traffic.

A truck coming from the opposite direction, driven by an impatient, teenage boy suddenly comes barrelling at us (very fast) and head on, trying to pass the car that he was following. My friend tried to avoid any collision whatsoever by taking the ditch, but lo and behold he tried to avoid us too by heading for the same ditch! We hit the rear end of his HUGE truck and lived to tell about it.

What a nightmare....ambulance, ER, x-rays and flash backs of what did happen and what could have happened. Scary, to say the least. One of my worst fears is to be killed in an automobile accident. God was watching over us that day and for that I am truly grateful. We escaped with only minor injuries.

This week I turned the big 4-0! For the longest time I have dreaded it, said I would not be able to handle the day with little more than ultimate depression, and could not even fathom being in my 40's. Now I am thankful that I am here, alive and well. And 40 years old.
