Christmas is here...

This commercial makes me laugh every time I watch it. and makes me want to go to Target and try this....

It's okay....

It's okay. It's okay to want someone you can't have. It's okay to keep friendships when you don't want them or want something more. It's okay to cry when you're hurt, and it's okay to stay mad at someone who hurt you. Believe it or not – it's always going to be ok. That's just how life works. Sometimes things don't work out how you want them to, and a lot of times, it seems like they never will. But it's okay, that's how life is supposed to go. It's all about learning to deal with the bumpy parts in the road, and waiting till they are smooth again. It's all about forgiving and forgetting, it's all about wanting and wishing. That's just how life goes. So hold your head up high, and keep on smiling.

Because it is true when they say that

Every minute you spent upset, is a minute of happiness you'll never get back.

Note to Self...

Today and everday...

Lonely Road.

I walk a lonely road, the only one that I have ever known...

...Don't know where it goes, but it's home to me

and I walk alone.

Drive.

Sometimes, I feel the fear of uncertainty stinging clear

And I can't help but ask myself how much I let the
fear take the wheel and steer.

It's driven me before

And it seems to have a vague, haunting mass appeal.

But lately I'm beginning to find that
I should be the one behind the wheel...

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there

With open arms and open eyes yeah

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there

I'll be there

Home is where the heart is.

"Home is where the heart is."

This quote used to not mean much to me. I used to consider it one of those "cheesy" quotes. I always thought that "home" was where you grew up, where you went to school, where your house was. It was that small town and all those familiar faces and places. Recently I've come to realize it's not that at all. Of course all those things are where my home is but there's so much more to "home."

"Home is where the heart is."

That is exactly true. My parents live 4 hours apart during the week and only get to see each other on weekends. Our time together as a family is hardly spent at our house. I've come to realize I can feel at "home" anywhere, as long as I'm with my family. Whether it's at my mom's apartment, our house, on a roadtrip or a hotel room. "Home" is when I'm with my family. I've never truly understood that quote til recently. It's very true when someone says,

"Home is where the heart is."
