the winding road
|
so my daughter is learning to stand up by herself. and i have to say i feel pretty proud. i'm even more proud of the fact that she can be excited over something. ok, that sounds strange.
let me try again.
when a baby is born, they're basically this really tiny, strangely colored,...

ticking clock
|
whats with the time schedule going around in life? why does society limit out abilities and capabilities to these small windows in time and if we don't accomplish these events in a certain timely manner we are destined for failure. if we don't succeed promptly then we'll never succeed at all.

laugh track

so i had a date last night.
not a date date. just an old friend came into town and took me to dinner.
well, i didn't have a babysitter, so it was me, him and my daughter.
plus her car seat which barely fit in his car, a diaper bag, crammed with extra diapers, a change of...

go ahead and try
|
the idea of being a single mother scares the piss out of every prospective date i may have. and while a part of me understands their apprehension, another part of me is rightfully indignant. like, because i have a child, because i am raising her on my own, that must mean that i am frantically...

alot of people say that i think too much. they say that dwelling on certain aspects of life is unhealthy and can only lead to depression and/or obsession. but i know myself. i know that my dwelling days are over and these moments of pure reflection are the soothing balm my weary mind needs. my...

the simple life
|
its not so odd to feel unappreciated. any mother, wife, or caretaker will tell you that its pretty common to feel like no matter how many dishes you clean, how many loads of laundry you wash, dry, fold and put away it, and no matter how many times dinner is on the table surrounded by a clean...

something ended last night. and i thought the whole world was collapsing in on me. i thought that i'd never be able to breathe again through the constrictions in my chest and it didn't even matter that my makeup was running and there were people around to see me cry. when i woke up this morning...

someday i'll make known to you
the years spent in suffering silence
someday the doors to the past will fly outwards
and streams of devastation will flood the hallway
you'll not believe the hell endured in righteous indignation
you'll wonder why i raised not a...

he would have been perfect. a part of me really does believe that.
what in the world convinced me that destroying his trust would have ever made my life easier? spite drove me to wreck what we had, a classic case of cutting off my nose to spite my face.

sincere regrets

i am longing to believe that the past can be made up for. that time can mend things and wounds can scar over, no matter how deep they once went. i want to believe in the magic of an apology and the healing power of a sincere regret. there are people who have come and gone whose time i have...

a hero proven true

my little brother went off to war the other day. armed with nothing more than the optimism youth affords us and some menial training to pass off as life saving in a day and age where nothing is certain. i feel like the scene from Gulliver's Travels where the country outside our own cannot believe...

how does anyone know the depth to which they can judge their own writing? i have considered myself as someone who enjoys writing, who keeps it as a hobby and rarely anything else. but more and more i find myself really wishing that this was my title.

the verdict is

how do you acknowledge the end of a relationship? how do you wrap your mind around the concept of being without someone you lived and breathed for, took chances with, loved and devoted yourself to?
at this point i know the relationship is basically over. we love each other to be sure. we...

my feet grow unsteady as of late.

i'm not so cynical at this point in my life....i'm fairly contented....a little more relaxed....and perhaps even more open to the idea that while Fate has a role in my life, it does not have to be a big one. and that chances are better off taken, words are much more sincere when they are spoken...

morbid pondering

i'll spend the rest of my life wasting away to an emotionless void while waiting for him to become the caring man i need him to be now.
i'll span years that grow bleaker and seal my fate in blood, as this child ties me forever to his side.
oaths will be sworn and valor will decrease...
