I've learned that "Once Upon a Time" and "Happily Ever After" are rarely in the same story. ***I've learned that I am more complicated that even I can comprehend.***I've learned that we tend to ignore those who adore us and adore those who ignore us, we leave the ones that love us and love the ones that leave us.***I've learned that laughter is the best medicine.***I've learned that the love I have for my children cannot compare to any other.***I've learned that it's not what they take away from you that counts. It's what you do with what you have left.***I've learned that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is be someone who can be loved. The rest is up to them.***I've learned that no matter how much I care, some people just don't care back.***I've learned that it takes years to build up trust, and only seconds to destroy it.***I've learned that if God brings you to it...He will bring you through it.***I've learned that it's not what you have in your life, but who you have in your life that counts.***I've learned that you can get by on charm for about 15 minutes. After that, you'd better know something.***I've learned that you shouldn't compare yourself to the best others can do, but to the best you can do.***I've learned that it's not what happens to people that's important. It's what they do about it.***I've learned that no matter how thin you slice it, there are always two sides.***I've learned that it's taking me a long time to become the person I want to be.***I've learned that you can close your eyes to the things you do not want to see, but you cannot close your heart to the things you do not want to feel.***I've learned that it's a lot easier to react than it is to think.***I've learned that you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you see them.***I've learned that you can keep going long after you think you can't.***I've learned that we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.***I've learned that either you control your attitude or it controls you.***I've learned that heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.***I've learned that learning to forgive takes practice.***I've learned that there are people who love you dearly, but just don't know how to show it.***I've learned that money is a lousy way of keeping score.***I've learned that my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and still have the best time.***I've learned that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down will be the ones to help you get back up.***I've learned that I'm getting more and more like my grandma, and I'm kinda happy about it.***I've learned that sometimes when I'm angry I have the right to be angry, but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.***I've learned that true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. Same goes for true love.***I've learned that just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.***I've learned that maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had and what you've learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated.***I've learned that you should never tell a child his dreams are unlikely or outlandish. Few things are more humiliating, and what a tragedy it would be if he believed it.***I've learned that your family won't always be there for you. It may seem funny, but people you aren't related to can take care of you and love you and teach you to trust people again. Families aren't biological.***I've learned that no matter how good a friend someone is, they're going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that.***I've learned that it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.***I've learned that no matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn't stop for your grief.***I've learned that our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.*** I've learned that sometimes when my friends fight, I'm forced to choose sides even when I don't want to.***I've learned that just because two people argue, it doesn't mean they don't love each other.

Terra
&
Brandon 84% Compatible ♥ Terra and Brandon have been romantically-together for awhile now, indicating a degree of compatibility. Similar personality descriptions are a plus. The religious faith they share may help to form a bond. The fact that Brandon is a big sports fan could be divisive, in terms of how the couple spends their time. The fact that the two hold different political beliefs may be a sore spot. Both are brainy, and that is a good thing. Their astrological signs are in harmony, which is a plus. And their views on children are similar. Overall, Terra and Brandon are quite compatible. There are a few rough spots, but nothing that cannot be overcome. ♥

I'd like to meet:

I'VE ALREADY MET A WONDERFUL MAN BUT I'D LIKE TO GET AND KEEP IN TOUCH WITH SOME OF MY FAMILY AND OLD FRIENDS... AND MAYBE FIND SOME NEW FRIENDS TOO...

~Love is never easy, but It turns life into song. There is no bit of circumstance That love cannot transform. There is no weary moment Of anger or despair That love cannot convert to grace And render whole and fair.~How passionate the paradise That comes from knowing well That someone in your happiness Finds pleasure for himself.~How sweet the gift of giving to Someone who gives to you, A selflessness that gives to self More self than self is due.~With all the searing madness of The world from day to day, And all the dreary sadness that No joy can take away,~There is one truth more beautiful Than anyone can bear: That two can trust that when they turn They'll find the other there.

***Yesterdays a Memory*** To say goodbye to yesterday you must dream about tomorrow, use the waters of the future to drown away the sorrow. For the past will never live again only memories exist, You can never buy back yesterdays no matter how hard you wish.
***The Sands of Time*** We can never turn back the pages of time, though we may wish to relive a happy moment or say goodbye one last time, We never can because the sands of time continue to fall and we can't turn the hourglass over.
***What happens now?*** I set here and stare at the memories on the wall, thinking about the way things have changed and wondering when i'm gonna fall. I try to walk but i can barely crawl. I read through letters and look at pictures, trying to tell myself that everything happens for the best and praying that my hurt will soon be put to rest. I remember all the times we shared and i wonder what would be if we never cared. I dream about the way things used to be and the way things could have been, and what happens now that things have come to an end.
***Lifes Seasons***My life is like a tornado, like thunder when i cry.If snowflakes were my happiness, then winter would fly by.Lightning strikes my heart inside.Sunlight peeks thru but tries to hide.Memories like teardrops, that glisten in the night.Thoughts are just mirrors, breaking in the light.If our souls could shine, and tell all that we feel...the seasons of life could always help us heal.

Heroes:

Jesus!! Catherine Jane White, My children, My Parents & Grandparents, My awesome soldier and all the men & women who fight for our freedom!!!
I refuse to be discouraged, To be sad, or to cry; I refuse to be downhearted, and here's the reason why... I have a God who's mighty, Who's sovereign and supreme; I have a God who loves me, and I am on His team. He is all wise and powerful, Jesus is His name; Though everything is changeable, My God remains the same. My God knows all that's happening; Beginning to the end, His presence is my comfort, He is my dearest friend. When sickness comes to weaken me, To bring my head down low, I call upon my mighty God; Into His arms I go. When circumstances threaten to rob me from my peace; He draws me close unto His breast, Where all my strivings cease. And when my heart melts within me, and weakness takes control; He gathers me into His arms, He soothes my heart and soul. The great "I AM" is with me, My life is in His hand, The "Son of the Lord" is my hope, It's in His strength I stand. I refuse to be defeated, My eyes are on my God; He has promised to be with me, as through this life I trod. I'm looking past all my circumstances, To Heaven's throne above; My prayers have reached the heart of God, I'm resting in His love. I give God thanks in everything, My eyes are on His face; The battle's His, the victory is mine; He'll help me win the race.
