Reflectionettes

There are a lot of times that I have these deep thoughts that seem to sear me straight to the heart. I look back on my life and I can't help but think it is true; as I get older, what was once important to me is now nothing but a shadow. It's the simple things in my life that make me smile and give me contentment. I still experience heartache because I'm a mom, daughter, sister, aunt, and everything else where love resides deeply and unabiding.

My life is good and I'm learning to enjoy what I have instead of yearning for what I don't have. Although something still bugs me; I still wish for a companion in life and out of all that is true with me, this has to be the most difficult thing for me to attain because I make it so difficult.

"Stop it!" Maybe if I keep telling myself consistently, I will stop thinking like this. It's in da brain!

I am grateful for my family. And no matter how dysfunctional we are, they're mine and I love them no matter what.

Ain't love grand?

Yes. Yes, it is.
