quotes capturing emotions of leaving

I thought it might be nice to have this, and the two I have thought of are actually song lyrics, but feel free to post whatever you feel is appropriate...

Angels of Devils by Dishwalla

this is the last time
that I'm ever gonna come here tonight
this is the last time - I will fall
into a place that fails us all - inside

I can see the pain in you
I can see the love in you
but fighting all the demons will take time
it will take time

the angels they burn inside for us
are we ever
are we ever gonna learn to fly
the devils they burn inside of us
are we ever gonna come back down
come around
I'm always gonna worry about the things that could make us cold

-----

if I was to give in - give it up
- and then
take a breath - make it deep
cause it might be the last one you get
be the last one
that could make us cold
you know that they could make us cold
I'm always gonna worry about the things that could make us cold

Iris by Goo Goo Dolls

And I don?t want the world to see me
?cause I don?t think that they?d understand
When everything?s made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

Those lyrics are really deep. I will be pondering them for awhile

This part of Free Fallin' by Tom Petty:

And I'm free, free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'
Free fallin', now I'm free fallin', now I'm
Free fallin', now I'm free fallin', now I'm

I wanna glide down over Mulholland
I wanna write ~~her~~ name in the sky
Gonna free fall out into nothin'
Gonna leave this world for a while

And I'm free, free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'

It's like all of sudden you're walking a tightrope without a saftey net. Once in a while it still crosses my mind that there is no net and it upsets me. Most of the time I don't think about it though.

Mark, sometimes a really great song says it best.

Mark, sometimes a really great song says it best.

And that's........okay.

Another Tom Petty favorite I loved to hear when dealing with the whole ordeal was "I won't back down". That one always lifted me up. Lyrics are mixed but they mentioned these verses

I won't back down
You can stand me at the gates of hell
No, I'll stand my ground
And I'll keep this world from draggin' me down
There ain't no easy way out

Well, I know what's right
I got just one life
And a world that keeps on pushin' me around

Another favorite of mine when trying to be independent from others was D.J. D.J. from Transplants

We're gonna make it on our own
We don't need anyone
Lord knows we don't need you

If you feel like rockin' out to a song, there you go

Corvin

And that's........okay.

Hey, Flyin, leave my Stuart Smalley alone. LOL

Gloria Gaynor

very cliched I know but it has helped me

Go on now go walk out the door
just turn around now
'cause you're not welcome anymore
weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
you think I'd crumble
you think I'd lay down and die
Oh no, not I
I will survive
as long as i know how to love
I know I will stay alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
and I'll survive
I will survive

It took all the strength I had
not to fall apart
kept trying hard to mend
the pieces of my broken heart
and I spent oh so many nights
just feeling sorry for myself
I used to cry
Now I hold my head up high
and you see me
somebody new
I'm not that chained up little person
still in love with you
and so you felt like dropping in
and just expect me to be free
now I'm saving all my loving
for someone who's loving me

It funny but when you are a JW you aren't really allowed to love yourself

well as of now I give myself permission to do just that

thats how these words have helped me

FlyingHighNow

And that's........okay.

Hey, Flyin, leave my Stuart Smalley alone. LOL

Corvin, I love Stuart. He's a great guy. Not only that but:

"He's fun to be with. Because he's good enough, he's smart enough and doggone it, people like him."
