You can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button, girl.
So cradle your head in your hands
And breathe... just breathe, Oh breathe, just breathe

COME TO ME
FOR ALI
I will always love you no matter what
No matter where you go or what you do
And knowing you You're gonna have to do things you're own way
And that's okay So be free, spread your wings And promise me just one thing...
If you ever need a place to cry, Baby come to me Come to me
I've always known that you were born to fly
But you can come to me
If the world breaks your heart
No matter where on Earth you are
You can come to me
Don't walk around with the world on you're shoulders
And you're highest hopes laying on the ground
I know you think you've gotta try to be my hero
But don't you know the stars you wish upon they fall its true
But I still believe in you
If you ever need a place to cry, Baby come to me Come to me
I've always known that you were born to fly
But you can come to me If the world breaks your heart
No matter where on Earth you are,You can come to me
And the seven sea's you sail
All the winding road you're on
Leave you lost and feeling all alone
Let my heart be your beacon home
If you ever need a place to cry, Baby come to me Come to me
I've always known that you were born to fly
But you can come to me
When the world breaks your heart
No matter where on Earth you are You can come to me
Things Positive
Thought for the week:
In what ways can I challenge myself to be who I have always wanted to be?
When was the last time that I challenged myself to go beyond my limits?
What is one thing I will commit to doing this week that will be a positive challenge?
Ideas.....
Exercise, create, read, reflect, organize, write, clean, forgive, listen, pray, laugh.

Things positive
Thought for the week: How much richer would my life be if I were truly my own best friend?
How to get there.... Be compassionate, listen to my inner voice, be kind and sensitive to the mix of feelings that I have during the week. Be grateful for all of the good and positive things that I do. Be forgiving when I don't feel like I have measured up to my own expectations. Interject some humor. Have fun! Love myself.
Three sisters
Debbie: The sister that shared so much as we grew up together. We have memories that children should not have. Grown women should not have those memories. Back then she had strength beyond my imagination, and she needed it. She spent time in her own hell, and she came back with even more strength than she left with. Today she is an incredible woman. An example for me. She is the eternal optimist. Loving, and kind. ALWAYS there and has never said no to helping anyone. She pours out support to me. I have too many I'm sorrys to say. Too much forgiveness to ask of her. Where to begin?
Carrie: Carrie was the little sister that I wanted to take care of. I wanted that little girl to know that she was loved. When she was three or four I would rock her in the rocking chair and stroke her face, then tell her that I loved her. Today my thought is that she came through it the best of all of us. Maybe she has just been able to recover better. Maybe she is just putting on a show for all of us. No, I know she has her own pain. Today though, she is strong. She has refused to let things beat her down. She looks forward, and not to the past. She is level headed and a straight shooter. She will tell you how she sees things. Always with love and kindness, with the very best intent but she doesn't sugar coat it. That little sister has taught me so much and continues to teach me.
Arin: The youngest sister. She grew up with my Ali. She is always asking if she can do anything for me. She is talented in areas that I can not even dabble in. She gives and gives. She has been through her share of pain and sadness. Yet she always asks can she do anything for me? I seem to turn to her for prayer, she will always eagerly offer that prayer for me. I want to give back to her and see her with a look of genuine happiness on her face. Another little girl that I feel the need to love. She will be educated and wise. She will be loved. It is on its way to find her.
