LESS IS MORE mmhmmm ...
9th February, 2006. 2:37 am. A Few Items
But he that dares not grasp the thorn Should never crave the rose
Anne Bronte, "The Narrow Way"
For what is it to die but to stand naked in the wind and melt in the sun?
And what is to cease breathing,but to free the breath from its restless tides,
that it may rise and expand and seek God unencumbered?
Only when you drink from the river of silence shall you indeed sing.
And when you have reached the mountaintop,then you shall begin to climb.
And when the earth shall claim your limbs,then shall you truly dance.
Kahlil Gibran, "Death" in the book "The Prophet"
This is a song by a country group called Rascal Flatts, they were one of Ryan and I's favorite bands.To me this song along with another of theirs "God Bless the Broken Road"
states perfectly how I felt and where I was in my life when I met Ryan and just how thankful I was to have loved and been loved by such a person.Its been almost 20 months since he passed and yet the pain and saddness seems as fresh and great as if it were yesterday. As you can see Ryan has been on my mind alot as of late. I think its the coming of Spring that makes me miss him more. He made such an effort to show interest in my love for all things botanical.We would go for walks in the park (with Danny)or stop at nurseries and look at all the plants.He would be so patient because usually it was on the way to his beloved bookstores that we stopped off at the nurseries.LOL.
The Day Before You
I had all but given up
On finding the one that I could fall into
On the day before you
I was ready to settle for
Less than love and not much more
There was no such thing as a dream come true
Oh, but that was on the day before you
Now you're here and everything's changing
Suddenly life means so much
I can't wait to wake up tomorrow
And find out this promise is true
I will never have to go back to
The day before you
In your eyes I see forever
And it makes me wish that my life never knew
The day before you
Oh, but heaven knows those years without you
Were shaping my heart for the day that I found you
And if you're the reason for all that I've been through
Then I'm thankful for the day before you
Now you're here and everything's changing
Suddenly life means so much
I can't wait to wake up tomorrow
And find out this promise is true
I will never have to go back to
The day before you
The day before you
Was the last day that I ever lived alone
And I'm never going back
I'm never going back
Now you're here and everything's changing
Suddenly life means so much
I can't wait to wake up tomorrow
And find out this promise is true
I will never have to go back to
The day before you
OH BY THE WAY *** I'M THE PROUD OWNER OF A 10 WEEK OLD CHOC LAB/BORDER COLLIE PUPPY ***
HIS NAME IS "HENRY",MOM PICKED IT OUT. I HOWEVER IN KEEPING WITH MY TRADITION OF BEING STUBBORN AND OBSTINATE I CALL HIM "BUMP". WE WERE THINKING ABOUT CALLING HIM * BISCUIT OR SQUIRT * BUT THE NAME HENRY WON OUT.

Giving Out Years
On the first day, God created the dog and said:
"Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. For this, I will give you a life span of twenty years."
The dog said: "That's a long time to be barking. How about only ten years and I'll give you back the other ten?"
So God agreed.
On the second day, God created the monkey and said:
"Entertain people, do tricks, and make them laugh. For this, I'll give you a twenty-year life span."
The monkey said: "Monkey tricks for twenty years? That's a pretty long time to perform.How about I give you back ten like the Dog did?"
And God agreed.
On the third day, God created the cow and said:
"You must go into the field with the farmer all day long and suffer under the sun, have calves and give milk to support the farmer's family. For this, I will give you a life span of sixty years."
The cow said: "That's kind of a tough life you want me to live for sixty years. How about twenty and I'll give back the other forty?"
And God agreed again.
On the fourth day, God created man and said:
"Eat, sleep, play, marry and enjoy your life. For this, I'll give you twenty years."
But man said: "Only twenty years? Could you possibly give me my twenty, the forty the cow gave back, the ten the monkey gave back, and the ten the dog gave back; that makes eighty, okay?"
"Okay," said God, "You asked for it."
So that is why the first twenty years we eat, sleep, play and enjoy ourselves.
For the next forty years we slave in the sun to support our family.
For the next ten years we do monkey tricks to entertain the grandchildren.
And for the last ten years we sit on the front porch and bark at everyone.
I WISH I COULD RENEGOTIATE MY DEAL...

11th October, 2005. 6:52 pm. CAN U BELIEVE IT 2 POSTS IN 1 DAY HEHE
| FACT:You embody the German principle of Konstantzusammenschaft, which is best described in English (without using the obscure English word "sammenschaft") as "eternal togethermanship". | | | The Loverboy
Random Gentle Love Master (RGLMm)
Well-liked. Well-established. You are The Loverboy. Loverboys thrive in committed, steady relationships--as opposed to, say, Playboys, who want sex without too much attachment.
You've had many relationships and nearly all of them have been successful. You're a nice guy, you know the ropes, and even if you can be a little hasty with decisions, most girls think of you as a total catch. Your hastiness comes off as spontaneity most of the time anyhow, making you especially popular in your circle of friends, too.
Your exact opposite:
The Billy Goat
Deliberate Brutal Sex Dreamer
| You know not to make the typical Loverboy mistake of choosing someone who appreciates your good humor and popularity, but who offers nothing in return. You belong with someone outgoing, independent, and creative. Otherwise, you'll get bored. And then instead of surprising him with flowers or a practical joke, you'll surprise him by leaving.
ALWAYS AVOID: The Billy Goat
CONSIDER: The Boy Next Door, The Loverboy |

27th September, 2005. 9:39 am. Heres My Fave Shakespeare quote
To me this is the most heartfelt expression of love and loss ..It was used at J.F.K's
funeral. His brither Bobby Kennedy quoted it. =)
"Come, gentle night, come, loving, black-brow'd night,
Give me my Romeo; and, when he shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night
And pay no worship to the garish sun"
Current mood:  infuriated.

2nd April, 2005. 9:33 pm. The song that's in my head
This group Rascal Flatts was 1 of Ryan and I's favorite. This song describes what i think he and I went thru until we met .. To you BOO
my Angelboi true
Bless The Broken Road
I set out on a narrow way many years ago
Hoping I would find true love along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you
Chorus:
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
I think about the years I spent just passing through
I'd like to have the time I lost and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of a grander plan that is coming true
Chorus:
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
Now I’m just rollin’ home into my lover's arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road that led me straight to you
P.S Danny your the best friend and big bro a guy or lil bro could have
Current mood:  but thankful.
