Sometimes for peace of mind...
Sometimes for our own peace of mind, we must let go of old negative things. Be it friends, family members or even running back to old loves, we sometimes need to do it!
I know sometimes goodbyes are very painful, but we need to know that sometimes the others involved just don't care enough to even notice you've even walked away from the relationship.
Recently I have been thinking about an old school friend I use to be very close to, well I considered us close but they have done so much in the past to hurt the trust, that I don't even think that our friendship was for real, I was stolen from, I've be refused when I asked if I could stay with them a few days when I wanted to leave the relationship I had been in for a long time, being very unhappy.
They had said no, yet, when given the same opportunity, I did not shut them out. I actually invited them to stay until they found their own place. And again I was stolen from when they did leave, and later found out they were talking bad about me to their friends, which they had talked about them to me badly as well. Not one thank you! Is there really that many people like that in this world?
I've had family members talk badly of me, after being there for them, treated as if I was ungrateful for the things they had done for me, but when I was there for them, not one thank you.
I've had others come and go, people abandon me when my father passed. Treated like crap two days after he passed when I called another friend.
Yet, they all treat me as if I am the bad guy...and all those times I forgave, still encouraged them, still spoke empowering and positive words to help their confidence.
I've been called so many names, of which I am not any of those names except the B word. But to me, being a B is what I must do, in order to show I wont take their S.
So in order to keep a positive peace in my mind, I do things for myself, in order to keep me going, even though I sometimes come across some real A-holes who like to talk behind my back and insult me. Invite me places only to not call, and this just makes me think they just did it in order to laugh.
So I keep to myself and still try my best to keep others feeling good about themselves, complimenting their work, offering to help others, when I can.
So now, here I am a bit sad, trying my best to pick my moods back up to where they should be. I'm sad because I'm saying goodbye to a friendship, that meant something to me, but they have just showed me all along it has meant nothing to them.
I have felt and feel used, taken advantage of, unloved, unappreciated...
I'm sorry this message isn't very positive right now, but somethings a person must get things off their chests in order to feel more at ease and give themselves a little bit of peace at mind moments of true clarity. Which sometimes you can't really talk to those people, because they just get silent and I have the knowledge of knowing them well enough to be blaming me for their a-hole moments. Because they can't handle the fact that I know. Some unable to handle the truth.
I guess this is enough reading for you all tonight.
I've had worse things happen to me in the past so losing a friendship that means nothing to the other end is quite okay.
I'm sure I'm not the only one who has experienced these things and I'd like to apologize for any wounds I might have opened for anyone.
Be well and always be positive, sometimes we need those negatives though...in order to see those positives hiding below the surface.

Something about books and how they can relate to people, in a sense!
This is a long read, and I hope you take the time to read it, I put a lot of thought and feeling here!
I have been laying in bed for a little while now, and I got to thinking!
"People are kind of like books!"
We are judged on our appearances, no matter what our contents might be, we have chapters in our lives, with each having a new beginning with each year gone by, some years are interconnected, and some are far different than that of the next.
What I am trying to get at is, we can see an enchanting book upon a shelf and want it so bad, just because it's cover catches our eyes and we feel the need to reach out and grab it!
But then again there are these books, with chapter names that can be quite appealing as well. BUT after we buy that book, it seems to have an awesome cover, wonderful thought out chapter names (Life achievements we'll say) and we get home, sit and start reading...Not so bad!
However after a few chapters those names are just names..
Okay, I'll just cut to the chase here...Some chapters can get down right nasty and grotesque!
Okay here is my example, but in PERSON form, instead of book explanation form!
Say there is a man....OR woman, and they have high achievements in life, good grades all through school, goes to college, gets out, finds a great job she loves with a passion...BUT half way through life and those wonderful passionately well put togetherness years of life, something happens and they have a downfall, a "spiral to rock bottom" chapter that pops in there...and than life gets really really crappy!
That's the awesome enchanting covered book with great chapter names I was talking about... Don't get me wrong, I know it doesn't always happen!
And then we have those "meh" books, they look okay, a little rough around the edges, and the contents are a bit interesting, I may want to read it!!
For this book, say it's a man...OR a woman! They suck at school are poor and kind of living life from rock bottom, most of their days, always hungry, always hoping they will get something of value to feel they have something to appreciate and treasure for a change. Trying very hard to never take anything for granted, and being always thankful for what they have, because they know that at anytime of day or given moment they know it can be gone in a flash. Maybe they quit school, because they didn't get good grades at all, settled for everything that was there if needed. Always grateful, but also a bit bittered by heartache from loved ones.
Something happens, life gets a little better, but worry, it lingers always in the back of their heads. For this person, they know how quick things can change and how fast things can be taken away or vanish and be gone. They pick themselves up, dust off the discouraging words in their head and push on a head and do what they never thought they'd ever do, and beat their own odds of thinking they might lose. And end up at the top, while still appreciating each day, each possession they own as a treasure, each person who hasn't walked away or given up on them along the hard journey it had been to get where they were.
That is the book I want! The book that shows the struggle, as I know it can be, life isn't easy for everyone, we all have chapters, we all have pages we wish we could tear out! But you know what? Not everyone is the same and we all have our own chapters, in which shouldn't be judged! Anything could happen while living each chapter.
And a star can rise and fall, but leaves can slowly drift to the ground, yet be gently swept up to a tree branch again. Life can have ups and downs, but some know how to live with it and others don't, because they have not experienced it before...Sometimes the one who was always at the bottom, finds it easier to put things back together again, and the one who is new to it, finds it life threatening, not knowing what to do...and those moments, they show you what life is all about and who really cares....AND WHO WE ARE! We learn so much about ourselves at those times, those hard times, are trying and learning curves in life! Yes we hate those moments, but later in life we learned, we LIVED, it showed us WHO WE ARE, not to everyone, but to us! Learning who you are to yourself, it's not easy, but it's worth getting to know yourself...It helps to live a bit happier knowing, you're your own friend, when you have yourself you can't be alone! ;)
I love reading!
I always read the information description that usually is on the inside cover or the back of the book before getting a book. Books that show an experienced knowledge throughout (I mean school and life knowledge) are usually the best books on the shelf! I left the parts about love out for a reason because sometimes love can be the cause of the downfall or the cause of the uprising.
I hope everyone has a great year this year and that it is filled with love, good health, happiness and peace!

It's been a while, and it's almost Christmas!
Hello bloggers and INTERNET surfers, if you just happened to come across my blog, please feel free to check out other blog posts in order to see what it is I blog about here!
It's been a while since my last blog, as I had stated in previous blogs, I am in school now, I am studying to become a hair dresser, some may be shocked, but those who really know me wont be surprised at all! I've always wanted to do this, I love it and I feel like I am dreaming when I am just sitting around at school wondering what task to go to next. It almost brings tears to my eyes that I am actually there! Is that happiness? Is it a life long goal finally met? I believe so, and I can't remember ever feeling that way, about something I've done for myself.
I'm not the best there, but I know I am good! I did 4 different hair cuts yesterday and the people and myself are happy with the end results!
I'm also here to say Merry Christmas to everyone, I may not post before Christmas and I don't know how long it will be before I post something afterwards. Either way though, I'd like you all to know that I do miss you all and that I do often wonder how you are all doing!
Enjoy your Holiday, with safety, love and happiness with Family and Friends.
And always know, There is always someone who cares. Take care
Ann
PS- I'll be keep all those who were taken from us too soon, and praying for their families not to suffer grief too deeply. My heart goes out to you in comfort at this time.

Happy Thanksgiving,from Canada to you all!
Hello! And..Happy Thanksgiving, from Canada To you all!
I know I haven't been posting for quite some time now! I've had some computer issues, and I have also been busy since I started school, last week, school has been great and I have been loving it, it has been something I have been wanting most of my life and now I am finally doing it and that makes me happy, I know it is going to have it's times when I will get discouraged and be hard, but I didn't come all this way and work so hard to get there and just give up on it!
I wanted to stop in for that small update and to say "Happy Thanksgiving", to everyone!!!!
There is just so much I am thankful for right now!!
:-)
Much Love and Happiness to all!
Ann
