Wednesday Again.. How The Week Just Flies By..

Can't believe its another Wednesday.. Insanity!!!! Here i've been spending each spare moment in the great outdoors with family when I ought to be posting... oh well.. better late than never, right?

I've been spending so much time chilling with my siblings and family members I can barely recall the last time I had a moment alone.. but its a good thing.. i think.. No for sure it is because I've been able to make some good food, have some fun trips and outings and plenty of interesting, exciting and fulfilling conversation :) So So far So Good!

I've been feeling a little down lately about having to leave some more people behind, especially this past few days but sometimes you just have to do what you have to do.. If you know me, you know how time I devote to other people.. so if I need to take some "me" time, I think it's well warranted..  A smart person told me that other people can live without you for 5 minutes, but you can't live without yourself so get back in tune with you before you try giving yourself out again. Everything happens for a reason and you have to take the good with the bad. Sound advice for sure. It's hard to "smile that is happened" when your thinking about the fact that "your sad cuz its over" but things happen the way they are meant to.. Sometimes you just have to let the chips fall, know when you can hold em, know when to fold em and especially know when you have to walk away.

**to those of you still reading me.. I am so sorry for letting go but honestly, it's the only way either of us could move forward and be happy.. trust me.  So don't be angry ok?  Sometimes we get hit, but we have to keep moving forward <3XoX**

Glad to be back to sort of normal right now.. so exhausted from all the traveling i've been doing and all the family visiting to be had but it's well worth it because soon enough I will be traveling more and then it will be shortly the end of the summer and I'll be getting my lower braces bonded (August 30th!! Eeeep!) and then its off to school for my final year... oh.. my..gosh....*stares in frozen shocked terror at the screen holding breath*

*breathes again finally and flattens a pesky fly on the screen tossing it into the trash can*

I've been addicted to country music the last 24 hours and can't get some songs out of my head.. It's all good, everyone needs to go a little country sometimes right? Anyway, here's the lyrics to the song that I'm stuck on lately and i know they definitely make sense for my current (and past) life...

There's some things that I regret,

Some words i wish had gone unsaid,

Some starts,

That had some bitter endings,

Been some bad times I've been through,

Damage I cannot undo, 

Some things,

I wish I could so all over again,

But it don't really matter;

Life gets that much harder,

It makes you that much stronger,

Oh, some pages turned,

Some bridges burned,

But there were,

Lessons learned.

[Chorus:]
And every tear that had to fall from my eyes,
Everyday I wondered how I'd get through the night,
Every change, life has thrown me,
I'm thankful, for every break in my heart,
I'm grateful, for every scar,
Some pages turned,
Some bridges burned,
But there were lessons learned.

There's mistakes that I have made,
Some chances I just threw away,
Some roads,
I never should've taken,
Been some signs I didn't see,
Hearts that I hurt needlessly,
Some wounds,
That I wish I could have one more chance to mend,
But it don't make no difference,
The past can't be rewritten,
You get the life you're given,
Oh, some pages turned,
Some bridges burned,
But there were,
Lessons learned.

[Chorus:]
And every tear that had to fall from my eyes,
Everyday I wondered how I'd get through the night,
Every change, life has thrown me,
I'm thankful, for every break in my heart,
I'm grateful, for every scar,
Some pages turned,
Some bridges burned,
But there were lessons learned.

And all the things that break you,
Are all the things that make you strong,
You can't change the past,
Cause it's gone,
And you just gotta move on,
Because it's all,
Lessons learned.

[Chorus:]
And every tear that had to fall from my eyes,
Everyday I wondered how I'd get through the night,
Every change, life has thrown me,
I'm thankful, for every break in my heart,
I'm grateful, for every scar,
Some pages turned,
Some bridges burned,
But there were lessons learned,
Oh, some pages turned,
Some bridges burned,
But there were lessons learned,
Lessons learned.
