I usually don't groove on these emails that go around with inspirational messages... but this one goes with a picture I just had to post here, so I am.

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that
wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You
will have your heart broken probably more than once and
it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so
remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight
with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things
an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast,
and you'll eventually lose someone you love. So take too
many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never
been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset
is a minute of happiness you'll never get back. Don't be
afraid that your life will end, be afraid that it will never
begin.

So send this to all of your friends (and me) in the next
5 minutes and a miracle will happen tonight

Live simply. Love generously.
Care deeply. Speak kindly.
Leave the rest to God.

(so instead of sending to all my friends I posted here for my friends here...a bit more low maintenance, that's all I can do today. So perhaps I'll receive simply a low maintenance miracle.)

Enjoy.

      You know, I pretty much expected all that to happen to me, I just didn't expect it to happen all at once.

      Thanks for sharing. It's all true.

        Yeah, I try to remember this all the time, but its good to have a reminder every once in a while.

          I'm in the mood to have someone break my heart. It has been too long since I have had a love in my life.

            aw. I can see that, there is something to the bittersweet of all that.

            Let's see...

            I listed on a piece of paper what I wanted in my next love in my life, and stuck it in a book, forgot about it.

            A few months later I met him. Now it's 7 years later, go figure!

            The stunning thing was, I wrote EXACTLY what I wanted his qualities to be, thinking I was dreaming and shooting too high, and would always be dissappointed by thinking like that.

            But he matched the list exactly!

              There was a creek near my house where I grew up and near that creek was a tiny patch of wild violets that would appear every spring. I used to sit near those violets and pick a few to make into a tiny bouquet. I dreamed then of the kind of man I wanted to marry when I grew up. It took many years, and a mostly horrendous first marriage to finally meet and marry him.
              I dreamed of Jackal in the violet patch.

                I am bound and determined to make this marriage work

                should I buy a book or something 'cause I'm no angel angel (I say it like it is, never hold back a thought) and I don't' want to screw things up..?
