Hope Floats

...beginnings are scary, endings are usually sad, but it's the middle that counts the most.  Try to remember that when you find yourself at a new beginning.  Just give hope a chance to float up.  And it will.  (from Hope Floats)

  2. All endings indicate new beginnings. It may take time to identify it. May you be well.

  5. I'm so sorry, but I know how you feel. I'm in an ending place myself,too, and the hopelessness is what's afloat right now. Remember (and I know you know this) that you are stronger than you think you are. Let me know if I can help, even if just to commiserate over e-mail.

  10. There's a line in a SemiSonic song that goes, "Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end." You'll find it! Best to you.

  12. Hey, I expect you to put yourself in a better place. Think "up"! There is no beginning or end, only new chapters in our lives. It is ok to be absent, to work things out, to take time away. I am propelling you forward to grow out of this. You are already repairing...RELOAD!

  22. Ive learned alot the last few yrs and espically the last 4mths.....its ok to ''feel sorry for yourself!'' Its up to us to go thru ALL the emotions our personal situation require! Then its up to us to deal with those emotions! Whether to ~file~ them, ~deal~ with them and or be ~pissed~ OR that terrible thing ~feel sorry for ourself~! Its up to US the road we take after that blow, again whether good or bad WE determine how WE cope and who knows best than YOU?! LOVE TO YOU.....I personally hate all the Cliches' and want to pop people who quote them to me now lol but I know they mean well! So, I will avoid all of those and just say, ~TAKE CARE OF YOU~! Ive been a follower of your blog since I first read it due to your inner strength and peace.... you will find your way!
