A Friend Like You

As humans,

We yearn for that comfort,

That joy in our heart

We look around,

For other people,

To join in this art.

What you gave to me,

Was like a needed restart,

You showed me comfort,

In a time,

Were I felt depart

I’m not an introvert,

But making friends is hard,

At times I assert,

Because my bodies always on guard.

I wear my heart on my sleeve,

Which also causes pain,

I’ve always been one to believe,

To say what’s on the brain

But I hurt you,

Which is something I didn’t intend,

The last thing I want,

Is for this friendship to end.

Because I need a friend like you,

One that’s by my side,

Because of my past relationships,

My soul and heart has broken,

I feel part of my life has died,

As I am moving forward,

As I continue this stride,

I need you to be there,

Right by my side.

Lean on me, I’ll lean on you,

Like a great friend is suppose to do.

In time, please believe,

This friendship will help us heal,

And trust love again, eventually.

I want to be your friend,

Nothing more, nothing less,

The fact that we are here,

I tell God, I feel blessed.

When you need me there,

By your side, I’ll be,

I want this friendship to be strong,

I want this reflection to be the better part of me

Be In My Heart…

As I sit here,
Mind twisted
Visions of us appear,
These memories consisted…

of the theme park,
I remember the rides,
of telling our stories,
I remember the confides

One by One,
The images come and go,
A beautiful album,
That we can flip through when we’re old

But as I sit here,
I am trying to see,
A world without,
A You and of a Me

I understand that,
Life can be tough,
I understand that,
Being alone is easy

I understand that,
Each past can be rough,
I understand that,
Marriage isnt breezy.

I’m a loving man,
I put my heart on my sleeve,
When I first met you,
I just couldnt believe,

That you gave me a chance,
Scotty’s the first date
Many memories after,
That got us to fate

A beautiful marriage,
On a hot day,
With our loving family,
Observing us say…

“For Better Or Worse…”

You are my soulmate,
But somehow we got lost,
Something, Somehow went wrong,
And here comes the cost

I’m lossing my bestfriend,
The only person I could trust,
Now I’m sitting here writting this,
Because I don’t know how to adjust

I gave you my all,
I truely want you to know,
I wanted to be by your side,
Through the thick or thin snow

I’m not giving up,
But at the same,
Because I’m a good man,
I’m respecting your wishes.

I’m not ready to leave,
But at the same,
Because I’m still in love,
I’m respecting your wishes.

I love you,
Til Death Do Us Part,
For the rest of my days,
You will always be in my Heart.

Glimpse Into My Life Series

This series gives you some real insight to my life, the ups and downs that I have had, and amazing memories that I have shared. It took some looking back on some (good and bad), and I had to be brave on others. 

Many readers of this site have learned a great deal about me with these posts. From amazing times when I asked my wife to marry me, to sad times when my best friend moved away. One thing that I have always focused on is the truth. I have always viewed myself as an open book, and I wanted to share my story. 

I have some more “Glimpses Into My Life” posts coming up. From bad decisions I have made to amazing moments I have been in, I want to continue sharing my life and my story. 

If you have not read any or just a few of this series, I would recommend clicking on the link below and start from the first post. There are a total of nineteen, so far, in this series. I do hope you enjoy reading them, as much as I enjoyed writing them.

New Year, New Goals…

Dear Readers:

I know I haven’t been staying up-to-date on my blog.  A few things in life has changed over the past few months, and it has made it difficult to have a few moments to keep this blog updated.

What’s changed: A new career path.  I finally left a job that I didn’t feel appreciated at… or rather… a job that I felt was becoming routine and doing a position that I wasn’t hired to do.  I am now working for AT&T.  This is a big move, but a very good move, for me.  I have always enjoyed electronics, especially mobile electronics, and now I can help customers with theirs.

For this new year, I have decided to make some goals… as I don’t believe in resolutions, I believe in making goals.  Below will be a list of goals that I would like to accomplish this year… we will call it… hmmm… let’s say: “The 2014 Bucket” goals list.  I’m going to focus on a lot of miner things, as one major goal will be harder to approach.  So here it is…

  1. Exercise.  I am currently weighing 204.  I want to be around 190-200, with less than 13% body fat.  I am around 25-30% body fat now.
  2. Read.  I currently read a lot of tech information online, and I stay up-to-date with politics, however; I don’t get the chance to read many books.  I would like to change that this year.  I am going to try to shoot for a book every two months (a small goal of 6 books this year, but it gives me a starting point), and also continue reading my tech/politics news too.
  3. Anger Management.  I feel that I can get snappy at times.  I do know that I am hard-headed, and I can be stubborn at times… This year I am going to focus on taking a deep breath and find a solution to the problem before freaking out.  Over the years, I have gotten better, but I still find myself get angry at times.
  4. Eating Habits.  (this goes with exercise) I need to start eating healthier.  I have noticed myself stopping at McDonalds more frequently, and eating unhealthy food sold at the mall.  I need to get myself back on fruit/vegetables, and I need to start eating smaller meals throughout the day.
  5. Thoughts. I feel this goes with Anger Management.  I need to start sharing my thoughts on my blog more.  This blog allows me to share my opinions and to talk about my life’s events.  Sharing is a great way to decrease the stress in your life.
  6. Lastly… I want to be the man that my future Mrs. deserves.  I want to be a man that she can count on and will come through for her.

I will look at these goals again mid-year and at the end of the year.  If you have any tricks or tips, or would just like to give some words of encouragement, I would appreciate it

A Glimpse Into My Life… Pt. XIX

As I look back over my past two years… There has been many people that have come into my life.  Many, of which, have come into my life in a positive way.  About two years ago, I reconnected with my best friend that I lost contact with because of my past marriage.  We had a lot of catching up to do, and we had to rebuild our friendship.  I was happy that she accepted me back into her life, because I definitely didn’t deserve it.

We went to a Lil Wayne concert together and she introduce me to two amazing women that I have become close with over the past two years: Tiffany and Shannon.  These two ladies got me out of the house and put me back into the social world.  From there, I have met many new friends.  Most, of which, are very close to my heart. If it wasn’t for these new people in my life, I don’t know where my life would be right now.  They helped me build a foundation in my life.  They helped me grow confidence in myself.  They helped bring happiness back into my life.

From meeting Tiffany and Shannon, I have meet two guys that I find cool as hell: Aaron and Jordan.  Though we might not always agree on everything, we all still enjoy each others company.  Partying with these two guys and the ladies always bring out good times.  Many memories come from many late Saturday night hangouts.

I feel I have lost connections with my friends.  One for reasons I don’t understand, and others for reasons of me not being able to get out and hang with them.  In other words, I need to step up and be there for my friends as they have stepped up and were there for me.  There is a big event coming up in two weeks… and it is going to be an awesome night.  This will be one for the memory books.

To all my friends that are close to me… I am sorry if I have been distant.  I have some areas of life that I do need to improve on, and I just want to let you know that you still have a friend here… I just hope I haven’t caused too much damage already.

Love everyone…
