I Did Overcome
love overcomes it all.
the hurt.
the tears.
the angry words.
the fears.
the goodbyes.
the i-don't-know-why's.
the never-agains.
the not-even-gonna-trys.
when all is lost.
stepping back and seeing
the love
and why it exists
will make things right...
I have been working for 13 hours. 2 more hours and I get to leave!!!!
Oh but the day was QUITE lovely. Because, you see, this girl is not the weepy negative bitch from the past few days. I learned today how to smile and laugh and play again. As corny as it sounds, I retaught myself how to live today.
My day in a nutshell:
golf carts, old nice ladies, good chocolate, cold rain and my white shirt, bats flying in and dying behind the fridge, magic firemen, spider solitaire, my baby, a call to my therapist to say I'm ready, the laurel parade, seniors, tears, four cups of coffee before noon, making coffee for everyone, laughing about nothing, funny stories about everything, great co-workers, walkie-talkies, long hugs from strangers, holding cute babies, dancing, watching the sunset, cheers with diet pepsi, napping on a couch, falling in love all over again, talking to God and giving a thumbs up, good times...
I'm not completely myself again, but daaa-yum, am I almost there. :)
Thank you Jess and Jamie, Richetti and Jillian, Britt and Michael and Meggo and Jason. Random texts, IMs, calls, and comments and believing it'll all be ok. Or just making me smile for no reason. It helped, believe me...
I have my head up and my eyes open.
