Just listen

Listen to this     I love hearing this when I go to bed every night.

I tried, I failed 

I had never been on a diet, I had just heard about them, but never even thought about going on a diet. It always sounded like such a torture, and why?  That was until the day I decided I needed to go on a diet.  It all started the day I decided to give up … Continue reading I tried, I failed

I have been conscious during my last two seizures and since then I've wanted to explain what I feel during the seizures, I just didn't know how to explain this or if my descriptions would make sense to anybody.  But today I found an article, which describes what happens and what people may feel during … Continue reading If I can’t speak, I’m tired, everything hurts and I don’t understand why; it means I had a seizure

Even though I’m not Miss Universe, we really need World Peace

I cannot believe that just 70 years ago today a nuclear bomb was dropped in Hiroshima, Japan. I have heard the story from family, movies, and class, that a nuclear bomb was dropped in Hiroshima. I don’t think I have ever read an article about it. I have never read exactly as it happened, and … Continue reading Even though I’m not Miss Universe, we really need World Peace

Just learn to let go and move on

Two years ago, more than a year after it all happened, but still too recent to learn how to deal with it and let go; especially for me. 8/4/13 People tell you to relax, to take it easy, but when they are in a similar situation they get really worked up too. It’s not fair. … Continue reading Just learn to let go and move on

I filled out a few applications, left my resume in … Continue reading And the job search continues

Someone knows how I feel

I was really surprised when the trainer who was helping me at the gym told me he knew how I felt.  So many people tell me they know how I feel to try to make me feel better, but they don't really know.  But he really did know.  He told me what he felt after … Continue reading Someone knows how I feel
