Attitude Check

You are not the center of everyone’s universe.  You need to remember that the world will not revolve around you.  You might have something happen to you that is important or traumatic or life changing, but that does not mean that it will affect other people in your life the same way.  You cannot expect people to always be your salvation.  You need to developed your own strength and not condemn those around you who are living their own lives. It makes you look sad and very self absorbed.  It also cause alienation from people that could or would otherwise be best used for other areas in your life.  So no, the world does not revolve around you, and the sooner you get that in life… the better you will survive it!

Being a child at home alone in the summer is a high-risk occupation. If you call your mother at work thirteen times an hour, she can hurt you.

Hurt ~ by Johnny Cash

I hurt myself today

To see if I still feel

I focus on the pain

The only thing that's real

The needle tears a hole

The old familiar sting

Try to kill it all away

But I remember, everything

What have I become

My sweetest friend

Everyone I know,

goes away

In the end

And you could have it all

My empire of dirt

I will let you down

I will make you hurt

I wear this crown of thorns

Upon my liar's chair

Full of broken thoughts

I cannot repair

Beneath the stains of time

The feelings disappear

You are someone else

I am still right here

What have I become

My sweetest friend

Everyone I know

goes away

In the end

And you could have it all

My empire of dirt

I will let you down

I will make you hurt

If I could start again

A million miles away

I would keep myself

I would find a way

Love this!!! Music make a difference

I am such a night owl.  I hate that.  I wish I was a morning person.  Up with the crack of dawn and watch the sun rise while listening to the birds.  But my creativity doesn't recognize that time of day, and even if I get up that early, I sit around like a slug.  We recently bought a patio table and I have really enjoyed sitting there when I do get up with a cup of joe and my computer. Maybe soon I will find my creative side again and start up on another story!
