Blog in Song

I feel that there will be more blogs like my most recent coming in the next few days/weeks. I'm in a healing process and music is my way of healing. Sad, happy, angry... who knows where the emotions will take me musically, but I'm just gonna go with it. Here is what I feel I need right now:

Lift Me Up
By Kate Voegele

This road is anything but simple
Twisted like a riddle I've seen high and I've seen low
So loud, the voices of all my doubts
Telling me to give up, to pack up and leave town

Even so, I had to believe
Impossible means nothing to me, yeah

So can you lift me up,
Turn the ashes into flames
‘Cause I have overcome
More than words will ever say
And I've been given hope
That there's a light on up the hall
And that a day will come
When the fight is won
And I think that day has just begun

Somewhere, every body starts there
I'm counting on a small prayer,
Lost in a nightmare
But I'm here, and suddenly it's so clear
The struggle through the long years
It taught me to outrun my fears

Everything worth having, oh
Comes with trials worth withstanding

So can you lift me up,
Turn the ashes into flames

‘Cause I have overcome
More than words will ever say
And I've been given hope
That there's a light on up the hall
And that a day will come
When the fight is won
And I think that day has just begun

Oh, lift me up
Oh, lift me up
Oh, lift me up
Lift me up
Lift me up
Oh, Lift me up

Down and out is overrated
And I need to be elevated
Looking up is not enough
No, I would rather rise above

So can you lift me up,
Turn the ashes into flames
‘Cause I have overcome
More than words will ever say
And I've been given hope
That there's a light on up the hall
And that a day will come
When the fight is won
And I think that day has just begun

Oh, oh, oh, just begun
Lift me up, yeah, oh, oh, oh, yeah, now
Oh, oh, lift me up
Lift me up
Lift me up

And I'm Done.... for the last time, done!

Greg and I are done, finished, never again, over, last time, concluded, chapter closed, terminated, it's time to move on and not look back! Why do men make this more difficult than it needs to be? Why are men so afraid of the truth? Do you think women can't handle the truth? Like we're not tough enough? Like your truth will break us? Like we're made of such fragile material that we can't handle or take the truth? I'm sorry, but we're women. We can handle more than you can and more than you give us credit for! Greg, did you think I would not figure it out? Did you think that I wouldn't see the pictures? Did you think you were protecting me by feeling me a line of bullshit? Did you think I would fall apart because you and I can't be together anymore? Did you really think that? Like I needed you? No sir! I don't need anyone. I need God and my family and my best friend! I don't need a man, I want a man. And from your actions, ...

Bowling Alleys

As promised... a new blog to sort of describe how I'm feeling about my life! When you walk into a bowling alley, you are greeted with many lanes and many games occurring all at the same time. If you try and focus on each one individually, you will be overwhelmed and develop a headache. Imagine that you are the only player for each of those games and it's ALWAYS your turn. Turn after turn after turn, your arm will get tired before too much time passes, I mean come on, we're only human. Well, that's what life is feeling like for me recently. I'm the lone player trying to keep many games going on all at the same time and it's always my turn. For those of you that have read my blogs, you know that one of those games has ended. Game, set, match (wait, is that tennis?) Over and done... he has struck out and the lights are off! Greg and I are over. This game will not be restarted. The pins are all broken and cannot be replaced. It's the phrase ...

Wow... that just happened...

So, my "friend" (and I use that term loosely), the one that owes me about $200... oh, did she just make me angry! She told me a couple weeks ago that she would be unable to pay me right now because she has to pay for summer school. In March? Really? I'm not an idiot, but apparently she is. She commented or wrote on someone's wall that she was thankful that they bought her lunch (that's like 3 days now) and she's looking forward to the movies this weekend and the tattoo shop! Seriously? You're gonna spend the money you owe me on tats? Have you no respect? No dignity? No care or concern for what your word means? Does it not bother you that your word means nothing and that I have lost that much more respect for you? Does your reputation not concern you? After all the years we spent under the heading of "best friends", you throw it all away. I mean, you already kind of did with the Christmas dinner at Mi Cocina with your words. Yes, th...
