Life
After a while you learn the subtle difference between
holding a hand and chaining a soul
and you learn that love doesn't mean leaning
and company doesn't always mean security.
And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts
and presents aren't promises
and you begin to accept your defeats
with your head up and your eyes ahead
with the grace of woman, not the grief of a child
and you learn to build all your roads on today
because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for plans
and futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight.
After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much
so you plant your own garden
and decorate your own soul
instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.
And you learn that you really can endure
you really are strong
you really do have worth
and you learn and you learn
with every goodbye,
you learn...

Much More Calm Today....

So if you read my blog yesterday, you could tell i was a little emotional and heated about a few situations, but have no fear i calmed down. And i am feeling much better today! Even the stars are telling me i am doing better :)

Today's Libra Horoscope: Jun 25, 2008
You will find that your emotions are much more under control today, dear Libra. You are able to strike a happy balance in all situations without having to go to extraordinary extremes that scare others away. Indeed, quite the opposite is true. People will be attracted to you, as you provide a life raft on turbulent waters. Your sensitivity is quite strong, and you are able to sum up the status of any situation within minutes.

PC?

Now i consider myself to be a pretty tolerant person of other peoples choices, especially when it comes to religion and sexuality. I believe that both are very personal and individual choices. I will respect and tolerate your choice if you will please have the same respect and tolerance for mine. In my opinion this is ESPECIALLY true when in the work place. PLEASE Don't try to preach religion, or openly criticize my presidential candidate-because she is a "crazy democratic female". I don't care if you are the Boss i don't want to hear your opinion on how "Gay relationships are wrong and disgusting. And one day those people will have to answer for that..." It is so frustrating because i have to sit back and just listen because if i were to voice my opinion about how offended those discussions made me not only would i be looked at like the democratic-devil-receptionost, i am sure there would be some sort of retaliation and i would probably be looking for a new job. the concept is simple keep your political and religious opinions out of the work place.Period.The End.

okay...deep breath erin.....:)
