No Pushing

So you know when you continue to give people chances, I mean chances to change or to do the right thing and some how they never succeed? Well I try to treat everyone fairly based upon my past interactions with them but this always seems to get me in a bind. I now understand why some people become so bitter and unapproachable and it’s because at some point in their lives someone kept trying to take advantage of them and they broke. Being emotionally broken is way too much for any one to have to deal with. So instead of making a public service announcement that you are sick and tired of being screwed you just go on the defensive. To add insult to injury people think that they can fix things by saying the two most annoying words ever known to man “Im sorry” well guess what yes you are sorry and NO I don’t care. So keep it moving. The funny thing about this whole situation is that people want you to forgive them and act like it never happened yet they do nothing to aid the forgiving process. At some point you have to learn that enough is enough, man up and keep it moving because only you loose in the end!   

Wedding Bliss for a friend!

So today I found out that a friend of mine is engaged! I almost think that I am way more excited than she is because we have known each other for years and have told tales of the bad relationships that we each have had. I think that I am so happy because I truly know that she is a wonderful beautiful person and she truly deserves honest, faithful, pure love. I feel that we are all entitled to love but we have to be very careful as to whom we share our love. I did think that this would happen a while from now as she is so independent and has so many things to fill her life, but when you find love and the opportunity to experience love on another level approaches you, you don’t not turn it away. In these times where no one knows what will happen I would say that it is best to go through the struggles with the person that you love the most. I have always generally had the pleasure of meeting good people and she is most definitely one of those people. I support their love and their union and I could not be HAPPIER for the two of them... CONGRATS!

Death and Love

Over the last few years I have lost friends, and family members for one reason or another, and I just realized that there are so many similarities between death and love. When you are in love, truly in love and you loose that person, a part of you literally dies and you feel like your whole world in crashing down a round you. Spending every day with him/ her and listening to the sound of their voice and their hearing their laughter forces you to feel love for them and no longer lust. You see lust is just the beginning stages and once you are both well acquainted with that you begin to move on to the next stage of fond feelings and softer emotions. You become attached and every day you look forward to seeing them, to being with them, just in their presence. Time moves on and you fall in love and you then begin to feel like you cant live with out them, you take their feelings into consideration, you hang on to their words as if you needed them to live. Then things all of a sudden things change, it’s like going through puberty one day you wake up and everything is different. A good friend of mine is experiencing something similar to this and her whole mood is different. She isn’t the bubbly, fun out going person that I know her to be because her heart has been broken and right now they only person that can fix it is the person that broke it. When people have been embedded into your life in some shape or form pass on whether it be in death or in love there is a significant sense of loss that can not be replaced, but only mended from time to time. I myself have struggled and am struggling with loss and I hope that at some point I can move on and be the woman that I know that I am. Knowing that I can’t touch my grandmother anymore, I mean physically touch her makes me feel as if I have truly lost something. One day I will wake up and over night I will have gone through all of the cycles of grieving and I will be able to mend my heart.

Best places if you want GREAT customer service!

So recently I had a bad experience when I went into one of my favorite stores... MARSHALLS and I was thinking about it for a few days. Long story short it was so bad that I wrote the manager. However I feel as though the places that I have received great customer service from deserve a moment... so here they are in no specific order:

·        Nordstrom (Towson )

·        Café Hon (Hampden)

·        Melvin’s Tire in Auto (

Belair Road

)

·        T-Mobile.

·        Woodberry Kitchen (Clipper Park area)

·        State Farm

·        Burberry (Towson Town Mall)

·        Tiffany’s (Towson Town Mall)

·        Shoe Repair (Security Square Mall)

Me personally I still like that special touch. When people still genuinely care, when people go out of their way to make you feel welcome. When people simply smile at you and look you in the eyes and say have a great day. These moments are so few and far between that I myself am often shocked when I receive the kind of service that I should anyway!

Im Back!

Hi everyone,


Im sorry I haven't been writing as much, I was in a car accident and I was down for a few weeks, but that is neither here nor there. IM BACK! The book is coming along very well, I am just trying to decide if I want to add more to the book or not. I am now shooting for Christmas time to have everything done and I have had a few set backs, but Im moving along pretty well. I was feeling down for a bit, but there is no point in being sad and sitting around doing nothing. I will update more a little later on today.
