I am a work in progress
Monday, May 18th 2009
I'm just doing the best I can at being me ~ CherI'm not perfect and I have no desire to be. I like who I am and what I've become, for I've come a very long way from being someone I didnt like at all.
I will continue to strive for improvement; but I refuse to be condemned for my lack of perfection.
To accept ourselves as we are means to value our imperfections as much as our perfections.

The air is cold and nippy. My husband and I huddle together for warmth and comfort. The familiarity of someone you love is calming when surrounded by so many strangers, 2600 of them. My nose inhales the aroma of the fire pits, a pleasant, comforting smell, which enhances the views around me.

This creepie, witchie, hag that I sit next to at work.
and now a CK member.
I feel bad about this, I really, really do. I love people, places and things. I love the variety in people, their individuality, the things that make them unique. I wrote a blog about the wonderful CK community and I meant every single word, I still...
Ode' to mother's day
Sunday, May 10th 2009
Dear Mother,It's been nine years since the last mother's day that we spent together. Nine years since the day I held your hand and caressed your check, whispering words of gratitude and regret into your ear. Nine years since the day you left me.
I know I should get over it and move on; and I have. Yet every year on this day, the day that I should be hugging you and fixing you dinner, I go to the cemetery and place the flowers upon your grave. With my chest heaving, my eyes blin...
