Because the song is so very sad.

Maybe this is romantic drivel… a little, too late.
Who knows?
My brain is insane. I don’t need to deny it.

Once upon a time,
While I still had braces on my teeth and stars in my eyes
And my heart was whole,
A boy made me a mix tape.

On that mixtape was the song
“Lovesong”
by The Cure.

 I thought it was the saddest song in the world.
Maybe the jaded heart of that seventeen year old boy knew
Knew that one day I would weep
Weep because things aren’t the same.
Because the song is so very sad.


The song has also been covered by Adele and Jes... both great covers.

When you're afraid.

Time has brought some changes...

Maybe it's because I'm working today? Feeling melancholy as the year draws to an end... sorry about the lack of writing while I've been on holiday. xx
 
 

 
"Traces" - JJ Cale
Traces of loving a life I remember
Already grown by December
By spring it was gone

Traces of people and things, and places
So much a part of my life
Where did it go

Time has brought some changes
Caught us by surprise
Where is the seed, that we need
Keeps our love alive

Traces of lines that lead back to nowhere
Forgotten memories of yesteryear
That's all gone

Time has brought some changes
Caught us by surprise
Where is the seed, that we need
Keeps our love alive

Traces of lines that lead back to nowhere
Forgotten memories of yesteryear
That's all gone

The Man, The Leader, The Legend



 

We sit with mixed feelings this morning – feelings of sadness and loss
but also gratitude for Mandela.
His life, his wisdom and his perseverance inspired the world.
Continue to be inspired, continue to make a change.

How am I supposed to stop myself??



 I
 Can't
 Frikken
 Wait!
 
 THREE SLEEPS TILL ARIZONA ARRIVES.

60 days down... just saying



Why is it that as I approach milestones, I seem filled with self doubt?

You're THERE Sharon, you made it, now carry on moving to the next milestone!

60 days sober, still maintaining my weight, close on 5 months of hanging out with a gorgeous man who loves me, a year of living with my wonderful brother - so many blessings!

"You just need the light of your imagination"

 
This ad is hilarious... and I'm sure to find out how true it is very soon!
Four sleeps until I am a kitten mom!
