2. On being broken-hearted:

What's another broken heart?  I've been through a few.  It seems to get easier I think?  It's definitely not as difficult as the first, but it's still hard.  The same emotions, the same thoughts, creep up with any broken heart:  loneliness, sadness, anger, bitterness, confusion, hurt, emptiness...Why? - Is the question we often ask ourselves.  But in it all, I feel freedom to be able to acknowledge and express these feelings, these normal feelings.  Acknowledgement is the first step in the healing process.  Freedom to express progresses the process.  To be able to just say: It makes me really sad... I'm just so lonely... I just don't understand... and in the process be like: Yeah, but this is just a part of it... Things will get better over time... Patience is the key... Love and respect is the answer.  Hope.

Through this rollercoaster ride of emotions, I don't regret anything.  It's all very bittersweet - to cherish all the memories, to reflect and to learn from it all, to smile through the pain.  However, if I could go back and change things - yeah, I would.  It's like asking the question of whether you would make the same decisions if a similar situation arises.  It makes sense to not make those decisions again... even though, we learn from our past decisions.  I've made many mistakes, and it's my time to own up to it.  Jesus asked me to confess, and now I just have to receive his grace, willingly and fully.  And in turn, I can extend forgiveness for the irrational and rational hurt that I feel from all of this.  A forgiving heart is a loving heart.  And that is all I want to do right now, just love... love when it hurts, love when it's easy, love when it's difficult, love when it's exciting, love when it's exhausting... What does it look like to love someone?  Words, like acceptance, patience, respect, honor, forgiveness, pop into my mind.

Mood/Prayer: Slowly being at peace with anything that comes my way.  Fluctuate back and forth, but hey, it's part of the process.  Happy and thankful for good girlfriends - I miss intimacy, and I have it with them, for sure, forever.  And that makes me smile.  May the holy spirit guide and protect and keep me strong in my weaknesses - as I live in God's grace day by day.  In a sermon I heard this month, the pastor's prayer:
"Jesus, I give you my heart, so give me your love."

3. On lovin' the lyrics of my new favorite song:

Oh baby when you talk like that
You make a woman go mad
So be wise and keep on
Reading the signs of my body

I'm on tonight
You know my hips don't lie
And I'm starting to feel it's right
All the attraction, the tension
Don't you see baby, this is perfection

Hey Girl, I can see your body moving
And it's driving me crazy
And I didn't have the slightest idea
Until I saw you dancing

And when you walk up on the dance floor
Nobody cannot ignore the way you move your body, girl
And everything so unexpected - the way you right and left it
So you can keep on shaking it

I never really knew that she could dance like this
She makes a man want to speak Spanish
Como se llama, bonita, mi casa, su casa
Shakira, Shakira

Ahahaa... ok, that was for fun, but hey, can't help it if I can relate!!!!!


Peace,

SherBear
