Sometimes I wonder what caused me to get so far off track. Was it really so easy as one simple little decision on something so minor as a single date that changed the course of my entire life? Possibly. If only I'd said no when he asked me or if only I'd not gone back when he called me an hour late and begged me to give him a second chance. If only, if only... if only can be endless. I have been given so many chances in my life and I need to figure out how to be and stay thankful for all of them, whether they worked out or not.
There have been so many little things that added up to big things and eventually became messes I could no longer clean up, or so I thought. It has taken dealing with the little things that then added up to big things and eventually became something beautiful. Amazing how that works isn't it?
All things in their own time.
Doing my best to remember the motto someone who really loved me told me many years ago. "To thine ownself be true." I think I'm finally living that, each step I take on this path has gotten me closer to that life than ever before.
With that, I have to go, Happy Valentine's Day.
I've found love and that love is from inside of me, I'm thankful for this life, I'm thankful for my friends, my family and all of the love I feel from everyone around me. I am truly blessed.

It's those tiny moments - those might have beens, should have beens, and wishes they wouldn't have beens - that create the paths that we are on and make us who we are.Hugs to you today. And amen to "To Thine Ownself Be True." Probably the truest words Shakespeare ever whispered!
You are such a beautiful person reading this makes me feel better despite everything that is going on right now. Thank you! Happy Valentines Day!
Bravo! Bravo!! Love that you know who you are and keep trying to keep your individuality your own. Some people never get that down and it truly is an ongoing process!
