Facebook is good to remember good memories, kinda sucky to remember the not so good ones. 2 years ago I was in the midst of heartbreak and trying to figure it all out. And by it, I mean my life, my tattered relationship, and everything that encompassed the two. I hardly remember the sadness I felt, luckily. I was trying as hard as I could to get the two of us back together again, I think because I felt such guilt about hurting him. I'd spent two years of my adult life with him and I wasn't sure how to navigate life without his reassuring words and actions. I am amazed to see the change I've made within, in these 2 years. I'd never hurt Brian the way that I hurt Dowain, or use Brian the way that I think I used a couple other people. Maybe it's maturity. I learned a lot about tact, and compassion and empathy 2 years ago too. Hurting him and everything after was meant to happen. I may be just as lost as I once was but I've gained so much. I hope he has too. Not a day goes by that I don't think about him, honestly. I don't know if it's because of residual love or what but God I hope that he is able to find his one. His person to tell everything to, be confided in completely, laugh with every day and never go to bed angry with each other. It's such a secure feeling and he deserves that security. Not because I hurt him, but because he was always good. I just wasn't good for him. The age and maturity difference and experience difference just turned out to be our downfall.

“I am awfully sentimental. Of books, belongings, people, places. It matters very little how positive or negative the experience was. If it shared some meaningful time in my life, I’ll have trouble letting go.”

Receipt on 10

Saw my ex just now, he came up to get a receipt for his gas which meant that he had to come and see me. When he drove by he asked me if they had made me manager out here yet. Told him I have to stop smoking weed first but that I don't want to stay here necessarily. Or at least I don't think that I want to stay in the fuel center anymore. He cut his hair, but besides that he still looks like the same guy that I was with years ago now. We chatted for a little while he said he's bouncing back that he still is at the job but wants to do subbing and he would get $100 a day instead of $60 a day. He said that he likes my hair, and asked if that was a recent change and we both laughed when I said that I had forehead bangs, and it was really terrible. I'm sad when I think about him because I know that I really did hurt him, and that it's a really terrible reflection of who I was at the time. I try so hard to be a decent and kind and loving person. But I still managed to hurt one of the people that I love. So maybe I'm not as good as I hoped and thought that I was at the time. I just hope I'm making up for it now..

Mama didn't raise a quitter.

My mom didn't raise a quitter, she did however raise a woman who has no idea what she wants to do with her life. Someone who looks around her and sees that there are many possibilities for so many people out there, but can't see any possibilities for herself. They say do what you love and what sets your heart on fire, but what if nothing does that for you? Every mild interest that I have is not something that could lead me to happiness and stability of forever. I like books but I don't love books enough to do something with them everyday. I just hate that I don't see a future in my mind when I think of things hypothetically. It's not that I don't see a future for myself, because I know somehow I will make it. But you can't fail it something if there is nothing for you to fail at. I don't want to wait till I'm 50 to find something that I love and I don't see any other way that it's going to be right now.

Why do you read?

What makes a book special?

The sense of adventure

The experience of another person’s story

The peace and quiet

The beautiful illustrations

The opportunity to explore your history

The path to learn new skills

The way to find answers to your questions

The feeling of wonder and nostalgia

The open door to visit new worlds

The chance to find a family

Why do you read?

September 6th is National Read a Book Day!

Ily babe

It's so funny looking back at memories on Facebook. I told all my boyfriends from my adolescence that I loved them. I look back now and so much of some of those relationships were bullshit. I've let myself completely love someone 2 times. The rest of those love yous were "it's really cool having a boyfriend, I really like you, it's fun to have a relationship like I'm an adult." I've felt love for people I was never with, but not in the real "boyfriend/girlfriend" sense. Those feelings never got the chance to develop into anything real for me. What I feel with Brian is the truest love I think I'm capable of. And the reason for that is that he feels it as much as I do. The love you can give to someone you gave yourself completely to and received the same, is outstanding. As hard as my life has been, and felt, and the many, many, many mistakes I've made, I would endure an eternity of every second of it to end up right where I am with him. The only thing I wish I could change, is the hurt I've caused those I once was close with. Of course it isn't all sunshine and rainbows, but we grow and communicate with each other to ride whatever storm we get ourselves into. So, Ily babe. 🤟

All of this is new to me. New faces. New worlds. New times.
