Ramblings of Silver Blue

“Just Walk Away” Performed by Celine Dion I know I never loved this way before And no one else has loved me more With you I’ve laughed and cried I have lived and died What I wouldn’t do just to be with you I know I must forget you to go on I can’t hold [...]

I’m homebound for the weekend. Sicker than a dog. I can keep toast and gingerale down. So that’s something. Still. I’ll use all the positive energy I can get. Please???

maybe I can do something about it. “Cyclothymia” As if you all haven’t seen it on the blog, right?

Sam Harris’ “Don’t Look In My Eyes”, which popped up on my ipod this morning brought back memories from years past, including MRH, who passed away November 1986.

Title from a song by Toby Keith. I had originally debated on moving the blog to a new address, allowing this one to sit until I deleted it. Then I considered: Why? Why would I go and rearrange my life, my hopes, my dreams, my fears… just because I felt something like this blog was [...]

There’s going to be some changes around here. I’m tired of my whining about things.

…is because some people don’t believe in stepping out on faith. My soul has been wounded, I’m not going to lie about it. Have we become a society where we trust no one, have faith in no one, and can take no one at face value? If we have, count me out. That’s not a [...]
