A list of journal entries about me |
| This is a collection of journal entries that I have collected over the past few years. |
 For my fellow attention junkies: Attention is the most basic form of love. I read this today in the February issue of O magazine, as I was sitting in the nail salon (one of the many little chores I did on my week off).I have yet to understand why I crave the amount of attention that I do, but at least I could admit it!  |
 An Irish Prayer May God bless you with a sunbeam to warm you, a moonbeam to charm you, and a guardian angel, so nothing may harm you. |
If I have learned anything from the many mistakes I've made(which I like to call life lessons), it's that you have to let people make their own decisions in life, even if you don't approve. Someone recently told me that maybe if I took the advice of others I would have not married my ex-husband. That person does not understand that getting married was the best and worst thing that ever happened to me. I believe that everything happens for a reason. I also believe that when you make a decision, it is the right decision for that moment. You don't go into marriage knowing you'll get divorced. You believe that it's forever and that whatever problems you have, you'll fix. Because of my divorce, I've learned exactly what I want from life and from someone. I also know how immature I was when I got married and most importantly, how important marriage is. It's not just a wedding, it's a life with some else. Now, I know that there is not a perfect person and you will have problems with everyone. They may be different problems, but you will have to work at it if you want it to work. If I knew then, what I know now, I'm not sure what I would have done. Would I get married? Would I get divorced? Would I try harder? Did I love him? Did I know what love was? What I do know is that I'm glad that I made my own decisions. I think it made me a stronger person. You have to live with yourself and with the decisions you make in life. Although those around you care, they will never know what goes on behind closed doors. It's a lot easier to give advice then to take it! |
 I read that nothing in our lives happens by coincidence or by chance and that everything that happens, happens for a reason. I wonder if this is true, or is it a way for us to justify what we do? In my opinion, there is a hidden meaning behind our actions. Unfortunately, our actions effect others. |
1. It's about the way you think. 2. Never regret what you did, only what you didn't do. 3. Get a life you really love. 4. Dare to love 5. Miracles happen 6. Celebrate beginnings 7.

Don't settle for something you don't love A message to anyone that views this entry: I found this exercise in a magazine Make a list of 5 good thoughts you had today and/or 5 good things about yourself. 5 good things about me are.. 1. I'm organized 2. I'm witty 3. I'm sensitive 4. I'm giving 5. I'm creative |
Today I will stop being insecure. I will finish each day and be done with it. I will realize that I am important and special and worth it. I will believe that someone is lucky to have me. I will understand that if they don't respect me their not worth my time. I will not dwell on what could have been. I will not stress about things I can not control. I will be smart and confident. |
| Well, it's April 7th, 2006 and this is my very first entry in this journal. My plan is to transfer my collection of written journal notes, as well as create new ones. |
