| Ever wish you had a double? We all have our moments where having a twin would solve so many problems. Life has gotten to be exhuasting and although I brought it all upon myself, it was something I had to do. There was something to prove but I am not sure that I am doing as well as I thought. Being pulled from so many different angles and having to put on a different face/role every couple of hours has gotten much more than I can handle. Especially with a gimpy wrist that has been hurting so badly that everything and anything makes it hurt. I am a bit worried about how this wrist thing is going to affect the wedding that I am working on. I am sure that it will go well but for now I can only think about how to get to that point while maintaining some sanity. I have to work out some kinks in my schedule but it can be done and won't be too difficult to do. I need to just focus on the things that need to get done and need to not think about anything else. Or else I will just keep getting more and more exhausted and drained. The more I work on weddings, the more I think about relationships and what it really takes to make them work. There are so many couples out there that make it but a lot of couples that just don't. Two people meet, get together, and they learn things they like and may not like. As time goes on, they grow as individuals, grow as a couple, and the relationship may or may not work. With things constantly changing, how do you know that something is going to work out? When do you know when its right and how do you know it will work? It isn't merely as simple as just being in love. No, marriage requires so much more. Exhasuting...isn't it? Lately, there isn't anything more picturesque than seeing an elderly couple sitting together, walking together, laughing together...they give me the image of true love - not fairy tale love but the love that is real and the one that has stood the test of time, circumstance, family, change, obstacles, and still they find joy and peace in one another. One day...
Alright, going back to work. | | |
| So just for you I thought that I would share with you our song...love it!
You're a falling star, You're the get away car.
You're the line in the sand when I go too far.
You're the swimming pool, on an August day.
And you're the perfect thing to say.
And you play you're coy, but it's kinda cute.
Ah, When you smile at me you know exactly what you do.
Baby don't pretend, that you don't know it's true.
Cause you can see it when I look at you.
You're a carousel, you're a wishing well,
And you light me up, when you ring my bell.
You're a mystery, you're from outer space,
You're every minute of my everyday.
And I can't believe, that I'm your man,
And I get to kiss you baby just because I can.
Whatever comes our way, ah we'll see it through,
And you know that's what our love can do.
And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's you, it's you, You make me sing
You're every line, you're every word, you're everything.
How can you not love the Buble? Exactly...
I love you cause you are my everything - wow, that wasn't sappy, was it? | | |
| All in all this was a good couple of days. It was extremely chaotic but it was pretty good. From midday Thursday until Friday evening I had a work Sales & Marketing Retreat in Saugatuck and as intense as it was, it was full of new things, new ideas, and new perspectives. Came home to tiddy up a bit and then hit up the bar with a friend. Came home to brew up a nice bath and then hit the sack. Saturday was busy, busy, busy! As soon as I got up, I was cooking, cleaning, and preparing to host Jen's Bridal Shower. It was a great time to be goofy and silly with the girls. Nothing beats girltime and hitting up the bars with the girls. Sad thing is since Jen lives in Chicago it isn't something we can do on a regular basis. But nevertheless it was a great time. A lot of pictures were taken that no one better share! Silly girls being silly, just the way that we are! And after Jen left to go back to Chicago this morning, I have been cleaning, waiting, and trying to get some rest and relaxation. R&R...sounds so good. Life has been exhuasting with work being so busy and so much other things on my mind. There seems to not be any time to do anything and when you are constantly dealing with people who only think about their own schedules and their own agendas, it makes it much more difficult to go through the day without stressing out. It would be so nice to just go through a day or a couple of hours to not have to think about anything. To have things planned and set and all I have to do is show up. But that is not possible in my life now. I am so tired of having to rearrange my schedule and the things I have planned for people who never have anything planned and only think about themselves. But you know what? That is what I am going to do because apparently if I don't think about myself and do things for myself nothing will happen. So really, its all about me and making it through this mighty difficult time. On that note... I need another lavendar bath to relax me and then to take a nap. Don't try to get a hold of me unless its extremely important cause I will have my phone on silent. I need a break so give it to me, please! | | |
| Walking through the video store the other day trying to find a movie I had not already seen I was drawn to a movie that I have also held dear to my heart - Dead Poet's Society. It has always been one of my favorite movies and I had to pick it up. All the famous poems, lines, and quotes penetrated into a place I had forgotten about. I knew all those lines in my head and could tell you who wrote it, where they were from, and what time period they graced. How amazing it is for their words to breathe the life they no longer hold.
GO TO THE GRAVE
by: Nathaniel Hawthorne (1804-1864)
O to the grave where friends are laid,
And learn how quickly mortals fade,
Learn how the fairest flower must droop,
Learn how the strongest form must stoop,
Learn that we are but dust and clay,
The short-liv'd creatures of a day.
Yet do not sigh -- there is a clime,
Where they will dwell through endless time,
Who here on earth their Maker serve,
And never from his precepts swerve.
The grave to them is but a road,
That leads them to that blest abode.
And speaking of which, did you know that RWEmerson died on April 27, 1882? 125 years after his death, the poet speaks louder and with more conviction.
When I feel all is lost and I cannot grasp the threads of my life, there is no better place to go than to meet with the dead poets. With so little time and too much to do, I find myself dying a little inside. Not wanting anything more than the company of the silent night. Explanations I cannot provide and tears well up when I look into your eyes. Not sure where anything is going and although time will tell, the frustration of it all just keeps building. Tired and exhausted, I can't do it all. Without a good outlet no one can and even with a good one its questionable.
As a tribute to Emerson's genius and life, I pick up Self-Reliance for the umpteenth time.
"Nothing can bring you peace but yourself. Nothing can bring you peace but the triumph of principles."
May brilliance begin | | |
