The Surprise Lilly
A single flower shivering in darkness, for the awakening of a new dawn. Resting in a bed of weeds, just awaiting the day that someone special might come along to clean the path for him to grow. To clean its life, and have faith in just one little flower that he may blossom. Well one day a little girl came along and found this single flower, then cleaned the little garden. The next day the neglected flower stuck his little face out of the once hardened dirt, to feel the warmth of the sunshine. The girl loved this little flower so much, she would not ever give up . She did not want this little flower to feel lost as she once felt. Keeping it fed with water, love and sunshine. The little flower grew so tall and so happy, that he bloomed into a beautiful Lilly, that the girl knew it would be..
The moral of this story is, even if it looks rough on the outside.. Never give up! Always help and love even when there seems to be no help at all! You just may be the help a little flower will need

Ebb and Flow of Life!
This is a time of year when we should re-evaluate ourselves, not only remember what we have to be thankful for. So much in my life has changed. And I must say for the better. I have finally found myself in the crazy world. Growing everyday! I love going back to school. I was so afraid before, but this time I am going balls to the wall! I have control of myself now. I rarely ever drink, I see everyday as new potential of expanding myself and life. I will never be a completed project, because there are always things to learn. I look forward to what tomorrow has to offer, and strive to better myself today!
If I had to go threw the past 3 yrs to reach this point and self assurance. Then so be it! I would do it all over again.
If it were not for difficult times we would not learn from them. I am so grateful to be alive, and to know where I am going in life. I am happy to be ME! (smiles) A thank you( you know who you are J.F) For a life lesson that I will not ever forget. If it were not for you I may still be a clouded mess.

Feeling a little down?!?!?
23 years ago today I lost my dad to cancer. It was a horrible battle for him, yet he lost his life in the process of fighting for it.
He died when I was 12, being 35 has not eased the pain of his death. The pain from losing him will not ever heal. Days, months and years go by, yet the hurt you feel for the loss of parent or child still haunts you like it did that very day.
I want to tell you a little about my dad. I want to carry his memory to everyone till I take my last breath and meet him at the cross roads. Then hopefully, my kids and grand kids will carry this out for us.
My dad died of colon cancer at the age of 51. We had a good size family, my 4 brothers and me being the only girl. We had a simple life, really not demanding all the gadgets lie had to offer, we were fine with our life and spending time as a family. He, my dad, Raymond Richard Stanley, was my dad, my hero.. he was the love of my life, he was my everything. he still is.
I am just so sad, he never was able to see Nick and I graduate, i didn't have a dad to walk me down the isle when I was married. I never had a dad to screen my boyfriends, to make sure his lil girl was in safe hands. My brother Nick never had any kids, but has a great wife. My kids will not ever be able to meet their grand dad. Its just not fair to have to grow up without your parents... Its just not fair...
I miss you so much daddy! I love you with all I am. I wish you never died.....
It never gets easier... you just go one with your day and do your best to be strong.
I wrote this poem when I was 12. It is published and a copy right.
WHY MY DADDY?
I WAS DADDY'S LITTLE GIRL, HIS SHINY WHITE PEARL.
HE WAS JUST AN OLD FARMER, BUT HE WAS MY KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOR
ONE DAY I SAW HIM CRYING, THAT IS THE DAY I FOUND OUT MY DADDY WAS DYING
ONE YEAR LATER MY DADDY PASSED AWAY...
THE ONLY THING I CAN SAY IS ,
WHY?
WHY DID MY DADDY HAVE TO DIE?
Yes after 23 years, it still hurts as if it happened today..
Take care Dear World, and remind those you love. YOU LOVE THEM! Say it till you can no longer mutter those words from your mouth. Cause tomorrow may not ever come!

Holiday's Are Over
Well I am back from PA. It was so not fun. LOL Pennsyvania, Does the sun ever shine there? I had all my kids during the holidays and was able to enjoy my son before he heads off to war. It is sad to see him do, but I am more proud of him then ever. I have a new man in my life. He is so Loving,nice, conciderate, thoughtful, compassionate. We have so much in common, and enjoy spending time with him has truly warmed my lost and broken soul. I didn't know there were guys out there like him still. I thank GOD for bringing us together. "If you keep your heart open, Love will find its way in."
Take care world!
