Why?

Searching for the reasons
That I sit here all alone
No one to know, no one to care
And no place I feel at home

Each time I felt that I was close
To having a happy heart
There I was, knocked to the ground again
With my world torn all apart

Perhaps it's just not meant to be
True happiness for me to find
And I should just be well content
To have a clear conscience and peace of mind

Pride and Ego





‎"So sad to think that people hang onto their false pride and

ego...and it keeps them from experiencing true happiness, 

joy, and blessings in their lives and relationships with family

and friends..." ~C.T.

Expectations...

"When our expectations (combined with hopes and dreams) 


clash with reality, it can leave us devastatingly disappointed


and wounded." ~C.T.

Beauty from Ashes?

Today...with heart torn to shreds, dreams shattered, mind like a jigsaw puzzle with hundreds of missing pieces, self-confidence and self-esteem beaten down, body shaking with exhaustion, unable to eat or sleep, I begin to question everything and trust no one...


Tomorrow...I know I will be made strangely and unexplainably calm, beautiful, and stronger...in spite of and yes, quite ironically because of, all the scars from the expected battles and mostly unexpected and unjustified assaults and ambushes from all the yesterdays...
