Bright Eyes "First Day Of My Life"

For Seth!

I've heard it said That people come into our lives for a reason

Bringing something we must learn and we are led to those

Who help us most to grow if we let them.

It well may be that we will never meet again in this lifetime.

So let me say before we part

So much of me is what I have learned from you

You'll be with me, like a handprint on my heart.

Now whatever way our stories may end

I know you have rewritten mine by being my friend...

A Cat has absolute emotional honesty. Human beings for one reason or another, may hide their feelings, but a cat does not. ~Ernest Hemingway

“The Key To Love”

“The key to love is understanding …The ability to comprehend not only the spoken word,but those unspoken gestures,the little things that say so much by themselves.

The key to love is forgiveness ….to accept each others faults and pardon mistakes,without forgetting, but with rememberingwhat you learn from them.

The key to love is sharing …Facing your good fortunes as well as the bad, together;both conquering problems, forever searching for waysto intensify your happiness.

The key to love is giving …without thought of return,but with the hope of just a simple smile,and by giving in but never giving up.
The key to love is respect …

realizing that you are two separate people,
with different ideas;that you don’t belong to each other,that you belong with each other, and share a mutual bond.

The key to love is inside us all …It takes time and patience to unlock all the ingredientsthat will take you to its threshold;it is the continual learning process
that demands a lot of work …

but the rewards are more than worth the effort …and that is the key to love.”

It's not what the world holds for you, it's what you bring to it.

Wisdom from a beautiful, kind, loving & intelligent lady who I have come to know & admire....."Try, if you possibly can, to forget about yourself. Concentrate on how you want to make him feel good. Think about how you want him to see you the first time with a huge smile on your face and no bad feelings between you. The love you all share is important enough that you can put all this aside and be like Scarlett O'Hara and think about it "tomorrow."

I only wanted you from the first day.

So maybe this dress & these shoes in silver?

This!!

Something has changed within me
Something is not the same.
I'm through with playing by the rules.
Of someone else's game.
Too late for second-guessing
Too late to go back to sleep
It's time to trust my instincts
Close my eyes: and leap!

It's time to try
Defying gravity

I think I'll try
Defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye
I am defying gravity
And you wont bring me down!

I'm through accepting limits''
cause someone says they're so
Some things I cannot change
But till I try, I'll never know!
Too long I've been afraid of
Losing love I guess I've lost
Well, if that's love
It comes at much too high a cost!

I'd sooner try
Defying gravity...
