Every instance of heartbreak can teach us powerful lessons about creating the kind of love we really want.

Diego's Birthday Party

Monday is my sons birthday officially. But we decided to have his party last Saturday.
As you can see no expense was spared for him. Well the only thing missing is alot of balloons. You see this was sort of a last minute thing. We were pretty much flying by the seat of our pants.
Everything worked out for the best though. A very special thank you goes out to all the people that made this possible. Thank you Shannon, Carlos, Myah, and Beth.

Staind - So Far Away

You can interpret this video in so many ways. I believe he has found something special after being through so much in his life. Its almost like a dream that he doesnt want to go away. Kinda like my life I suppose.

This is my life
Its not what it was before
All these feelings I’ve shared
And these are my dreams
That I’d never lived before
Somebody shake me
Cause I, I must be sleeping

(chorus)
Now that we're here,
It's so far away
All the struggle we thought was in vain
All the mistakes,
One life contained
They all finally start to go away
Now that we're here its so far away
And I feel like I can face the day
I can forgive and I’m not ashamed to be the person that I am today

These are my words
That I’ve never said before
I think I’m doing ok
And this is the smile
That I’ve never shown before

Somebody shake me
Cause I, I must be sleeping

(chorus)

I'm so afraid of waking
Please don't shake me
Afraid of waking
Please don't shake me

(chorus)

A change is coming

Every day I wish I was doing something different. Every morning up until a certain point my life has pretty much been the same. I would wake up and make breakfast for the kids and myself. Get them bathed and ready for the day. Then I would do the same for myself. Take them to school or daycare then go to work. This would be the routine everyday that I had my kids and if I didnt have them it would be the same minus the kids.

After this I would go to work, get some coffee, and proceed to sweat like horse for an unappreciative boss. But there is a silver lining to my day. Seeing a certain persons face makes the day all more bearable.

Once I get out of work I go straight to school. This isnt really a bad part of my day but Im a little tired by this time. Sometimes I dont feel like going but I force myself because this class will eventually get me a better paying job.

The time is drawing near. At a certain point I will have enough skills to get a different and better job.

Seether - Broken

Just a note.....Alot of the the songs I post hold special meaning. Whether it be in the lyrics or the symbolism of the song. Most songs are lyrical poems written by artists describing serious pain or love.



I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph; I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

‘cause I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
‘cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel light when you’re gone away

The worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away
There’s so much left to learn, and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

‘cause I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
‘cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away

‘cause I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
‘cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away
