Countless hours of worrying, wondering, thinking, debating, hoping, praying, writing…spent on you. Us. Worrying that I’d made a mistake. Wondering if we were really meant. Thinking that it would work out with time. Debating on how long I should hold on. Hoping you’d come around. Praying for a sign as to what I should do. [...]

So, as if we didn’t know music brings people together. Some songs unite us in joy, some in pain. Lauryn Hill’s Ex-Factor is the song that unites us in pain. I seriously can’t think of a.n.y.b.o.d.y who after going through a serious break up doesn’t think every single word in this song was about them [...]

So yesterday I was sick all day-couldn’t keep food down, couldn’t find energy to do much more than sleep. What a Christmas right? I managed to do some laundry and answer a few phone calls…and then last night around ten I cracked open Twi.light and got to reading. I understand now what KaNisa meant, its [...]

So today I travelled into the city with my mom and sister, we attended a Christmas Cantata (a composition for one or more voices usually comprising solos, duets, recitatives, and choruses and sung to an instrumental accompaniment) at my Grandmother’s church…which was a whole mess including, but not limited to the Rev. saying ‘what you [...]

I really wonder if we ever get over our first loves. Do they stay in our hearts forever because that is the first time we’re opened ourselves up to the possibility of something wonderful? Many times its no one’s fault you drift apart, things change, people change etc. Its circumstantial…and the first cut is the [...]

Just a few song lyrics that say it all…
Artist: Michelle Featherstone
Song: Coffee & Cigarettes

And watched my bad habits get flushed away
