Second verse, same as the first

Category : , ,

There are many good things from 2010 that I am going to cherish forever.

Friends I made, and others that came back into my life.
Learning that family is truly those who accept you, warts and all, even if there is no blood between you.
Learning that I can make it happen on my own two feet.
Looking at myself in daylight, the good and the ugly parts, and knowing that I can change them.
I got out of a bad relationship that was abusive. It was killing me so slowly that it took me years to notice.

2010 was also terrible for me in some ways...

I got a divorce. It was a good idea, but it was still terrible.
I moved to an area I'd never been too and learned just how lonely a person can be.
I was forced to realize just how physically ugly I find myself, and it was a difficult pill to swallow.

I am already doing what I can to make 2011 so much better than 2010. Now that the divorce is over, I can move on. I am taking EMT training, I am still studying for my degree, and I am already planning a move back to an area where I have family and friends who would give me the shirt off their back.

You have had such a momentous year! It took a lot of guts to finally yank the plug on your marriage and to strike off on your own. I really admire your guts.

Lady, I'm sorry that you find yourself physically ugly. You aren't. I'd do you. And I don't do ugly.

I can't imagine why you'd find yourself ugly. You're gorgeous! And you have the most beautiful smile!

Dayle- <3 (or, in geek speak, I less than three you)

Celeste- When I switch teams, you're the first one I'm calling

Charlotte- Asshole Ex Husband planted the seeds, I'm yanking those fucking things out by the root.
