One Day you'll get it...

Some day, you'll understand...


All the late nights, all the hard work, all the patience, you'll know why. You'll comprehend the tears, dreams, hopes, fears. You'll get why sleep is a luxury and something that should'nt be squandered. Why coffee in the morning can be your best friend and a beer at night can be the only way to relax. I sometimes envy those who get that 8 hours a night. And when I see someone like myself, I can be empathetic. Only because I know what if feels like to have a drive and a passion for something. Some days I've cried because I was so tired and sleep wasn't coming my way. Had to stay on that 24 hour grind. And now that I'm a bit more relaxed, some may call it burnt out, I can lend a hand. I do it because I appreciate all the folks that did it for me. There are two different types of friends. One is a coffee drinker and one is a sleeper. A coffee drinker friend is the one who will stay up with you and if they get tired, they'll drink that coffee and be up with you. A sleeper friend loves you to death, but just can't stay awake with you. In your life you'll have both, and you may love them just the same. I've always been the coffee drinker friend, which one are you??

Love....


Love is a strange emotion. It comes in different capacities. It can confuse the most mature mind. It's been a long time since I've been in love. However, I have had the opportunity to love a great deal of people. To say I understand Love, would not be true. But I think I have a respect for it. I don't know how to love or why I love, I just do. It's hard to describe. So when you say you love me, how do you love me? Or why? Inquiring minds want to know. I have love for a lot of my friends. A love that is deep and loyal. But is it the undying love of Romeo and Juliet? Or is it the unconditional love I have for my son? No... I don't love anyone but my son like that. Do I have a genuine since of concern? Yes... Do I have compassion and passion for people? Yes... That's the extent of love that I can carry. I cannot say I love one person and one person only. I love different people for different reasons. One maybe for their talent, while another is for their heart. Maybe one is for their smile and the way they approach life while another is the way they look at me and hold me. Love comes in many shapes and forms. So before you say you love me, tell me how and why you love me?
