Ryan Skiles, RIP

Today, I say good-bye to my dear friend, Ryan.  He was killed in a car accident on December 2nd.  We grew up together; I've known him and his family for 25 years.  He and his brothers were brothers to my sister and I since we met.  I will always remember Ryan with a smile on his face because he was always smiling.  My heart aches for his family and their loss.  We are all suffering, but we do know one thing: We WILL see Ryan again one day!  I miss you buddy!


I can't be
Losing sleep over this
No I can't
And now I cannot stop pacing
Give me a few hours
I'll have this all sorted out
If my mind would just stop racing

Cause I cannot stand still
I can't be this unsturdy
This cannot be happening

This is over my head
But underneath my feet
Cause by tomorrow morning I'll have this thing beat
And everything will be back to the way that it was
I wish that it was just that easy
Cause I'm waiting for tonight
Then waiting for tomorrow
And I'm somewhere in between
What is real
Just a dream
What is real
Just a dream
What is real
Just a dream

Would you catch me if I fall out of what I fell in
Don't be surprised if I collapse down at your feet again
I don't want to run away from this
I know that I just don't need this

Cause I cannot stand still
I can't be this unsturdy
This cannot be happening

Cause I'm waiting for tonight
Then waiting for tomorrow
And I'm somewhere in between
What is real
Just a dream
What is real
Just a dream
What is real
Just a dream
What is real just a dream

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 Th...

Ever had one of those days...

When nothing makes sense? When you can't seem to do anything right? When you feel things slipping away? When all you need to do is make some hot cocoa, curl up on the couch with your girlfriends, and watch funny movies and just laugh the day away as if it doesn't exist? When you feel restless? Like you're barely getting by in your life? Like you're suffocating just sitting still? Like if you could just get outta here you could breathe? Like you're not alive at all? When you strike out again? When you continue to fight for something that doesn't seem to fight back for you? When your energy and strength has been completely depleted and you have no fight left in you? Where you feel like you've lost all hope that it will happen for you? Today feels like that day.

A Depiction of an Aquarius

A friend of mine sent me a link to an astrology website.  Now, I do not believe in astrology, but I do find it incredibly coincidental.  I began reading the breakdown and was taken aback by how close in description is really is to who I am.  It's not a perfect depiction, but it's the closest I've seen ever. Aquarius Strength Keywords: (All of these are true) - Witty - Clever - Humanitarian - Inventive - Original Aquarius Weakness Keywords: (All of these are true) - Stubborn - Unemotional - Sarcastic - Rebellious - Aloof Aquarius and Independence: Aquarius personality is very independent, any attempt to hold them down or restrict them will cause them, to flee. They need to be free to be on their own. Independence is not just desired by Aquarius, it is essential to their well being. Aquarius and Friendship: Beneath the detached, unemotional exterior lies a kind hearted friend that will go out of their way to help another. They love to make people la...
