Quote of the day!



I’m different and yet funny and nice.
But I’m not so great at being a friend.
Or at least that’s how I feel as the doors of friendship keep shutting on me.
Maybe I withdraw from the world just a little bit too much.
I guess I’m better at disappearing into a book or a movie.
But, I’m so great if you could get past that all for I have a lot to give but shyness is a big part of who I am.
But I don’t let it slow me down for I don’t want to spend the rest of my life in this place of feeling so lost about who I am and what I meant to do.
I know I pray and that there are few that stuck with me to the end but, maybe sometimes it would be nice to have just a little more support.
But who knows maybe this is how it’s meant to be for just me.

as the cold wraps around me that I’ve been lucky this whole time.
For things could be worse but somehow even the things that should be sucking the life out of me.
It is more of a blessing for it makes me realize even though I am stuck in this storm.
There is a way out and if I just wait it will come to me and there is no point in feeling sorry for myself.
For this is only the beginning and there is always time for a miracle to happen and wipe away the bad of my day or my year.

to keep going but time is running out and the answers to my prayers are coming
but not when I feel like I am ready for them.
Even though I wanted them in the first place and maybe I didn’t need them all so badly like I thought I did.
For I was tired of waiting around for people to realize just what they had before it gone but the truth is they really don’t care and I will always be seen as the underdog.
Even when I am doing the most but yet I am not the one getting the attention but, the truth is I rather be behind the scene and grab what I want and need the attendance to see.
The truth is we all see what we want to see so that things don’t end up being stressful or have you running around town trying to get things done.
But, sometimes we loss sight in what is important and how it can be done or fix without there being confusion along the way.

moment you’ve been waiting for when you have just the right amount of time to relax and make sugar and ginger bread cookies.
With different shapes and sizes in hope to just shine some more light on the season as everything else around you is going by so fast and you don’t know what to do other than hope it will all work out in the end.
You know that you are looking forward to learn so much and hope not to fail as the time goes on and the help that was around is no more.
The idea of being able to solve the problems as best as you can is becoming more complicated by the minute.
No one knows the right answers to anything that is going on right now but the end result is you are not sure how well this will work out anyways.
So all you do is focus on the cookies and worry about the rest another day or two.

waiting around for what
There is no future where I am.
I can feel it just sucking all the joy out of me.
No clear answers or questions being thrown our way.
We know that it isn’t always the best situation to be without a friend.
We know that we are always connected. No matter how much distance there will be between us.

its not all about me.
And that somethings really are out of my control
and even though I know what is right and I try to do my best to accomplish that.
But there is always someone blocking my path and trying to get out of things that are required of them.
They don’t really care but want to have pockets that are full and belly that are satisfied but their mind and thoughts are always on the edge of unhappiness and all they can do is complain and not see the bigger picture in life.
And they will continue to miss out on the brighter things in life because they don’t realize just how lucky they are in the moment they are in now.

spend more time in the light and less in the dark this year as Christmas is just around the corner and then the year will be almost over in no time.
I know that it feels so great to sit with the sun shining down on you even though now those days are few and when it happens it just something to cherish for the moment.
Today is the day I just get to relax and not worry about anything as the day comes to a end and you head into a night of probably a mess but you hope for the best because you know that the count down to not stress about it is about to happen and you can’t wait for that moment.

gonna throw you under the bus
weather you like it or not.
Somethings it may not just hit you once but twice.
And even though you are down you have to get back up so that you can survive for just a little longer.
For you know nothing in life is guaranteed to work out but you know you are capable of overcome these obstacles that keep popping up on you day and night when you try to catch up in life.
