Life Lesson #13: Don't Just Trust a Used to be Friend

Ever feel this way?  Yeah, me too.  It seems to be something that I feel quite often.  Maybe it's because I form attachments to people to easily, or maybe it's just that I'm not like all of  them.  Either way, it hurts.  It hurts when I see someone I "used to know."  It hurts when the someone I "used to know" acts like the same old friend.  This happens often.  Enjoy it, but do not trust this person again at the first sign of friendship.  I know this from experience.  Take this lesson from someone who has been there.


Life Lesson #13
Don't trust someone just because he or she used to be a friend.  This person stopped being your friend for a reason.  You can't give in at the first sign of friendship, as this may be a false alarm.  Take time to let this old friend regain trust.  Enjoy this individual's presence, but do not live for this person.  You know who I'm talking about.

Me, Myself, and I.

Something I wrote June 16, 2009.  I was 16 years old at the time:

I am definitely not a genius. I don't even know that you would call me particularly smart. However, I do know some things.


I have what I like to call an "old soul." I may not be the most book smart person in the world, but I have some personal wisdom that many others my age do not have.


I haven't been through as much as some, but I have been through more than others. I value the experiences I have had greatly, and the wisdom that I have acquired from them.


Sometimes I act like the most immature person in the world, but other times I have the maturity of a grandmother. That is one of the complex attributes that makes me who I am.


I blossom when I get the chance to be creative. I strive to be original, like an artist in the midst of a million brain surgeons. We all have our place in the world, but I know one of my purposes is to be a creator.


I am confident and outgoing, or shy and insecure. Some days I am not quite sure who I am. But no matter what day of the week it is, or how I am feeling, or what I am wearing, I always know one thing. I am always me, myself, and I. I cannot change that no matter how hard I try, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Starting New...Kind Of?

I made a promise to myself last night.  I promised myself that I would start blogging again.  It is something I feel that I need to do - for you and me both.  I want to thank my followers who have stayed with me during this...blogcation?  Whatever you want to call it, I took a break, but I am back and raring to go!  Please followers, help keep me on track, and keep me writing.  It's something my soul NEEDS to do!  :)  Even if I just post a picture sometimes, I feel that I MUST post SOMETHING. 

Well, I think I'm already making a pretty good start. ;)

First Snows & First Kisses.

Her soul is that of a child at Christmastime

She looks up, oh how the stars shine!

Snow falls, and it tickles her nose

As her father's inside taking a doze

The boy she likes is playing next door

His eyes light up in the snowy galore

She looks at him, as he looks at her

She can hear the beat of her heart purr

She's only fifteen, but it feels so right!

A snowball fight breaks out in the twilight

Everyone goes home; it is just him and her

Brrr she shivers, she is obviously cold 

He gives her his jacket and says, "This will keep you warm."

Her smile glistens as the stars glow

She looks up and sees gently falling snow

When she looks down, what a surprise

The night ends with her first kiss; it leaves a sparkle in her eyes

Finally a Real Blog!

 

Hello everyone!  Guess what...I'm actually alive.  Yes, I know you must be shocked, but it's true!  I just finished my second to last exam this morning, and I am more than a little excited about that.  Don't you hate exams?  You do all of that studying for one test.  Or maybe you don't study at all; how should I know.  Either way, I am sure many of you college students and maybe even high school students have had to take an exam of some sort.  I wish all of you good luck on your exams!

On another note, I still do not know exactly what I am going to do with my life...for the most part anyway.  I do, however, have one major goal now:  to be the dirt/mud girl on a Swiffer commercial.  Call me crazy, call me insane, call me whatever you want.  I don't care.  I WILL make this happen.  I have facebooked about it, tweeted about it, and now I'm blogging about it.  I have even had friends trying to help me out!  This past couple of days, it has become a big deal for me.  If you want to become my fan on Facebook click here to join in helping me out!  I am grateful for any help I can get.

Anyway, you finally have it:  a real, honest blog.  I know I have not written a true blog in awhile, so I really appreciate if you actually take the time to read this.  Thank you my faithful followers.  I <3 you.
