thought for the day
" The past is my university. For every failure, I see it as an experience - to avoid or to change the way I handled the subject. From my success, I see it as a motivation to continue forward toward my goal. I am grateful for both."
--- Written in 2009 by Glenda Tromp
" My Past brought on enemies but created for me an armory of experience. My future will create memories of success. I am Who I am."
--- Wriitten in 2009 by Ziyaad Carrim --- South Africa
At a time in my life where I have been evaluating my wrongs and looking at a positive way forward. I wrote this down and realized that I will learn from my past and succeed into my future.
" When your determination changes, everything else begins to move in the direction you desire. The moment you resolve to be victorious, every nerve and fiber in your being immediately orient themselves towards your success. On the other hand if you think, "this is never going to work out", at that instant, every cell in your being will be deflated - giving up the fight."

Nothing is impossible in this world. We need to understand that we are the one who can actually change our destiny.

Trust me Lee, I know all about the drama living in a somewhat small town. And especially in the south. I keep to myself, my one sober friend and my family whenever they may have time. Just mainly my Dad or sister. But they are both somewhat newlyweds, my Dad one year on the 30th, and my sister, a year and a half so I give them their own space. My Dad raised me and of course then quite a bit later, my sister when she was 14, but me since birth basically and he never even dated until we were in our twenties and it was one woman for six years he saw about once a week. He was a loner. But he was so dedicated to raising us and then helping us get settled as adults and helping with my children, he didn't remarry until I was 31 years old last year. He's just an angel to me for everything we've talked about.
Off the subject, sorry. So what do you do in your spare time Lee? You hang out with your partner and watch movies or ever go see any local bands or anything like that? I haven't dated in almost three years! I do have someone very special that I believe there may be something starting with us. I'm really excited because he is so different and we have connected on so many levels. After this nightmare of detox is over, I look forward to knowing him much better. He knows all about what I'm about to do and supports me. I guess it can give me something to focus on when I'm in deathly pain (ha)!
Take care Lee and love you bunches... Brandy

Thank you for being so nice. I really just never have alot to talk about! my life is pretty much work and school. I dont really go out alot because i hate DRAMA and that seems to be everywere in the outsde world! : )
I'm doing great today. It's a beautiful day here in Alabama. I went and saw my five week old nephew and he is so precious. I still can't believe my baby sister, well, she's 28, has a baby. How are things with you? You don't talk much about yourself. You don't have to always be so concered about everyone else ALL the time. Let me know if anything's bothering you (hope not) or anything fun you've done lately. Lots of love, Lee...Brandy
WOW that is really cool! thanks for making my day a lil brighter! So how are you doing?
I know it's simple but i love it..
