The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when you discover that someone else believes in you and is willing to trust you with a friendship.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson

in light of recent revelations...that can only make the heart stronger..i've realized i have so much growing to do..i'm so jaded on relationship issues sometimes that i just don't get why things go the way they do..not that things are necesarily bad..i just get confused sometimes..and i don't know how to handle situations that throw me off guard..but i'm learning..i'm learning that there's so much more in life that i want to accomplish...there's so many things i look forward to doing..there's things that i need to learn to get over and things that i need to realize and accept...and in saying all this..i'm really glad and lucky to have such a patient and understanding boyfriend who is able to handle the obstacles i make him go through just so that i can find myself...hehe so to you my boogalou..

(although the chica's crazy..she does have some good words to share)

"Blessed" by ms. christina

When I think how life used to be;
Always walking in the shadows.
Then I look at what you've given me;
I feel like dancing on my tip-toes.

I must say that everyday I wake
And realize you're by my side;
I know I'm truly...

Blessed for everything you've given me;
Blessed for all the tenderness you show;
Do my best with every breath that's in me;
Blessed to make sure you never go.

There are times that I test your faith,
'til you think you might surrender.
Baby I'm, I'm not ashamed to say,
that my hopes will grow in splendor
You walked by in the nick of time
looking like an answered prayer
You know I'm truly...

Blessed for everything you've given me;
Blessed for all the tenderness you show;
Do my best with every breath that's in me;
Blessed to make sure you never go.

Blessed with love and understanding;
Blessed when I hear you call my name;
Do my best with faith that's never-ending;
Blessed to make sure you feel the same.

Deep inside you fill me with your tender touch...
Blessed for everything you've given me;
Blessed for all the tenderness you show;
Do my best with every breath that's in me;
Blessed to make sure you never go.
