Love
As we have sprung forward at the beginning of March.
I have been reflecting on the word love and its definition of the word.
The definition of the word love is an intense feeling of deep affection.
The season brings out that and then some.
But despite the definition do we understand how to love?
A friend and I had a conversation about this and how during our lives we've been searching for love.
I mean the love you are supposed o feel according to the movies, the toes curling love. and yet we are now in our 50s and have still experienced that type of love.
I have spent the last three years trying to accept and love myself with all my faults.
I am not perfect nor have I ever thought I was perfect, in my head I created a love that was perfect with the husband and the white picket fence.
And it has yet to happen for me and a few others I know.
Love doesn't judge or criticize you for just being who you are.
Love doesn't go away or stop because a person isn't feeling you.
Love is unconditional and can bring you unmatched joy.
The best part is love is forever and lasting when it comes from a place of pure and unwavering.
Spring has sprung and with that knowledge, this love will find you, and when it does be prepared to receive a gift of the greatest joy.

Live life
For the first time in two years tonight, I decided to go out.
in a previse post on my blog, I talked about being in a dark place to the point I thought about hurting myself. it's hard to be a caregiver because when you do you take care of that person to the point you forget about yourself and the person you were before you started taking care of the other person, once that person passes away a part of you does as well. not that you at this point even remember the person you were before.
I lost a very close friend to me who was with me for five and half years and when he passed last September a large part of me died too, I forgot who I was before he came back into my life and now I'm trying to find the fun-loving person I was before.
It is a journey, to say the least, but like all things in life I am a work in progress, but slowly but surely I will find that person who could light up a room and get the party started and dance the night away. my advice to any caregiver out there starts living your life, even if it's a few minutes a day in a room by yourself. because sometimes you need a few minutes just to breathe and be quiet. caring for someone will take its toll on you if you're not careful. so start to live life to the fullest because in the end you only get one. there are no do-overs peace and blesses.
