Balsam,

Glad you are talking to us now

I have been alone for too long. I don't want to be anymore.

purps

Tell me now if you came sneaking up behind
Would you know me and see behind the smile
I can change like colors on a wall
Hoping no one else will find what lies beneath it all
I think I hide it all so well

Stepping out, everyone can see my face
All the things I can't erase from my life
Everybody knows
Standing out so you won't forget my name
That's the way we play this game of life
Everybody knows

Looking through the crowd
I search for something else
But every time I turn around
I run into myself
Here I stand
Consumed with my surroundings
Just another day
Of everybody looking
I swore they'd never see me cry
You'll never see me cry

Stepping out, everyone can see my face
All the things I can't erase from my life
Everybody knows
Standing out so you won't forget my name
That's the way we play this game of life
Everybody knows

You say I'll pay the price
That's the chance that I'll take
Though you may think I'm telling lies
But I just call it getting by

Stepping out, everyone can see my face
All the things I can't erase from my life
Everybody knows

Standing out so you won't forget my name
That's the way we play this game of life
Everybody knows I am just barely getting by

The past year and a half has been hell in so many ways.........but would not trade it in for "The Awakening" of myself.

Hi Purps. It's sad that heartaches oftentimes preceed happiness or awareness. When a happiness was based on false premises, that happiness vanishes when the false premise is realised. You will attain a different happiness. The new happiness may not always be as climatic as the one prior to it, but it doesn't carry the baggage with it that the last one had either.

What kind of dog did you have? I have a boxer....but after hearing you mention about burying your dog, my next one might be a boston terrier So sorry bout your dog....losing them sometimes is like losing a human family member.

Glad your doing better though.

CHANCE

E G#m A C#m B

LITTLE DID I REALIZE THAT TIME DOES NOT HEAL ANYTHING AT ALL

LITTLE WONDER THAT WE LOOK FOR EVERY CHANCE TO EVEN UP THE SCORE

LITTLE POINT IN WASTING TIME JUST WISHING FOR SOMEBODY ELSE’S FALL

LITTLE CHANCE OF FIXING EVERYTHING BACK TO THE WAY IT WAS BEFORE

A B

THINK ABOUT THE WAY THINGS TURNED OUT GOING ROUND AND ROUND INSIDE MY HEAD

THINK ABOUT A GIRL WHO MIGHT HAVE LOVED ME BUT SHE NEVER EVER SAID

AND I KNOW THAT EVERY DAY I WALK AROUND THE WORLD UPON MY SHOULDER

AND I KNOW THAT NOW IT’S TIME TO MOVE ALONG BEFORE IT GETS TOO LATE

EVERY MORNING WHEN I WAKE UP ALL THAT’S CHANGED IS I’M JUST ONE DAY OLDER

STARTING NOW TO THINK THAT WAKING UP AT ALL WAS JUST ONE MORE MISTAKE

THINK ABOUT THE WAY THINGS TURNED OUT GOING ROUND AND ROUND INSIDE MY HEAD

THINK ABOUT A GIRL WHO MIGHT HAVE LOVED ME BUT SHE NEVER EVER SAID

MAYBE SHE IS ALL ALONE OR WAKING UP IN SOMEONE ELSE’S BED

WONDER IF SHE’S LYING THERE AND WISHING SHE WAS HERE WITH ME INSTEAD

AND I KNOW THAT EVERYTHING YOU WANNA DO YOU MUST DO FOR YOURSELF

AND I KNOW THAT EVERYTHING CAN CHANGE SO QUICKLY IN THIS MERRY DANCE

AND I KNOW THAT WHATEVER GOES WRONG GOES WRONG BECAUSE OF SOMEONE ELSE

THINKING BOUT HOW MUCH OF WHAT WE DO AND WHO WE ARE IS DOWN TO CHANCE

I heard that Dixie Chicks song, "I'm not ready to make nice" and I thought to myself, "Self, that needs to become your motto." Most of my life I have been the one to stop the boat from rocking when other people were trying to tip it over. I swear, I would make a great referee or mediator or something. But, you know what? I'm tired of playing well with others. So, Purps, you hang in there and keep coming back here to vent and let it all out. Peace, Bee

Purplesofa..................I hope your heart will soon be full of joy and the happiness that you deserve, girl. I'm sorry about your dog...it really hurts when we lose our pets. They become such an important part of our lives, especially when we are hurting; they're always there for us. It's like they know, and they give us so much love. Hugs to you.

Keep your chin up, and let out all that anger. Let it go......As you begin to heal, you will trust again, and that is very important. Then the world won't be such a lonely place.

Peace to you...............

Just got done burying the dog.........it was/is part german shepard/ part lab......big guy. I have another dog a Wiemeriner that I had to bring inside as I think he is grieving the loss.........and I have a little minpin pup.......she is a spaz..........but I rather like short hair dogs with no tails........The german shepherd, could clear out a room in no time wagging that tail.

Two of my sons buried the dog..........I really could not have done it with my bum foot.......uggggggggg.....

but Gumby..........if the minpin dies before me.......I think I could dig that hole ok.

The weimeriner is going to live forever!!!!!!

All the lyrics from the Dixie Chicks cd are great. I am not a country fan......but I have taken to this cd. Those girls are hot right now and put together a great cd. It will help alot of suppressed women for sure!!!!

How did you get to be so smart?
