So this is how I am feeling today.

In my mind.  In my body.  In general.

It’s been a super crap day…  And as far as restoring a lil faith in the world – well that’s a huge no go.

I’m the type of person that is happy and kind.  That thinks of others, that has compassion, love and understanding.  That is who I am.

After today I wonder is it worth been that type of person?  Is it worth putting yourself out there to get hurt? Is it worth having the way I see the world get tainted a lil more?

I wonder when people will realise that every action has a reaction.  What you do, what you say has an affect.  Whether it’s small or huge it’s still an affect.

I can’t say I’ve been innocent all my life but I can say this I HAVE LEARNT.  I have learnt from my mistakes.  I have learnt to be careful with the lives I touch.  I’m not proud of the mistakes I’ve made but sitting here now I am a better person because I have made them.

I now know what a privilege it is for someone to allow you into their life.  I now know to respect that privilege.  I know that my actions have a reaction – I wish this is something everyone knew…

It’s funny how things work.  What started out as a bit of a FML – I hate the world rants has maybe turned into a bit of a  world restoring rant…

This is who I am – I laugh – I love – I put myself out there.  I love my family.  I adore my friends.  I am a super rocking mommy to a super amazing creature.  I will never allow anyone to change me.  I will never allow anyone to change how I see the world but it does make me sad to think if you can cause me to question myself and ask myself if it’s worth it, well it makes me sad to think that your view on the world isn’t a very nice view.

I’ll stick with my view thanks – I kinda like it up top here (-:

I’ve learned that we don’t have to change friends if we understand that friends change.

I’ve learned that no matter how good a friend is, they’re going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that.

I’ve learned that true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. The same goes for true love.

I’ve learned that you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for life.

I’ve learned that it’s taking me a long time to become the person I want to be.

I’ve learned that you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you see them.

I’ve learned that you can keep going long after you can’t.

I’ve learned that we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.

I’ve learned that either you control your attitude or it controls you.

I’ve learned that regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is at first, the passion fades and there had better be something else to take its place.

I’ve learned that heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.

I’ve learned that money is a lousy way of keeping score. I’ve learned that my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best time.

I’ve learned that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you’re down, will be the ones to help you get back up.

I’ve learned that sometimes when I’m angry I have the right to be angry, but that doesn’t give me the right to be cruel.

I’ve learned that just because someone doesn’t love you the way you want them to doesn’t mean they don’t love you with all they have.

I’ve learned that maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you’ve had and what you’ve learned from them, and less to do with how many years you have lived.

I’ve learned that it isn’t always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.

I’ve learned that no matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn’t stop for your grief.

I’ve learned that our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.

I’ve learned that just because two people argue, it doesn’t mean they don’t love each other And just because they don’t argue, it doesn’t mean they do love each other.

I’ve learned that you shouldn’t be so eager to find out a secret. It could change your life forever. I’ve learned that two people can look at the same thing and see something totally different.

I’ve learned that your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people who don’t even know you.

I’ve learned that even when you think you have no more to give, when a friend cries out to you you will find the strength to help.

I’ve learned that credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human being.

I’ve learned that the people you care about most in life are sometimes taken from you too soon

A few months ago I took a huge leap of faith and started my own business.  I still remember the day as though it were yesterday.

It was a Friday night, I had an incredibly horrible day so off I went, got a bottle of Southern Comfort and went to my best friend- Tanja.  Together we had way too much to drink, spoke absolute sh!t about everything and with that Edge Design was born.

I won’t lie to you – it’s hard! Like really REALLY hard but I haven’t looked back since.  At the end of the day I am building a better future for myself and for my child.

I get to go to Amanda’s school galas.  I’m home with her in the afternoons.  I am lucky enough that I get to watch my awesome beautiful daughter grow up.

However it does come with a price.  I work long hours, sometimes till the early hours of the morning.  I have to do everything myself from accounts to seeing clients to getting the job done but it’s worth it because I am finally happy.  Tired but happy.

I have had the most amazing support from my friends and family and for that I will be forever thankful.  It really is such a blessing to have you in my life.

It is not very often that a daughter gets to say a few words about her Dad, I wasn’t going to give up on this opportunity.
Dad, when I think of you there are many things that come to mind…   calm, respectful, accepting, forgiving, generous, inspiring, loving and I could keep everyone here all day!  But the one thing that I feel most when I think of you is…Pride.
Dad, I am and have always been so proud to have you as my father.  You continue to be someone that I look up to and you inspire me to live my life the way you live yours.
Daddy, thank you for being such an amazing father, for accepting me with all my faults and loving me just as I am.  Thank you for everything you are and everything you have done.  You were always there for me.
Even though I don’t spend every day with you, you’re still the first person that I think to call when I need help.  ‘Dad will know’ or ‘let’s ask Dad’ is definitely my first port of call and that’s why you still get these strange calls from me asking you about batteries, etc.
Dad there is still so much that I want to say, I  love you so much and I hope that you know how special you.

So yes after almost a year I finally have my blog up!

It has been such a hectic year with so many ups and downs that this just took a backseat but I was sitting in bed the other night and I realised that it’s time…

So now here I sit, blog up and running writing this post.

PS – Big tx to you Miss Anja for the help :) And about the people in Douglasdale at least you stopped first ;)
