The world was on fire and no one could save me but you.
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do.
I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you.
And I never dreamed that I knew somebody like you.
No, I don't want to fall in love. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I don't want to fall in love. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
With you. With you. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
What a wicked game to play, to make me feel this way.
What a wicked thing to do, to let me dream of you.
What a wicked thing to say, you never felt this way.
What a wicked thing to do, to make me dream of you and,
I want to fall in love. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I want to fall in love. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
With you.
The world was on fire and no one could save me but you.
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do.
I never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you.
And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you no,
No, I want to fall in love. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I want to fall in love. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
With you. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
With you. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I... (This world is only gonna break your heart)
(This world is only gonna break your heart)
Nobody loves no one.

This one was on repeat half the afternoon while I was sewing. It's funny how you can listen to the same album over and over and suddenly hear the words to the song, even those you've heard many times before.
Wake up my sweet child
There's something I've got to say to you tonight
And it's time you took a look at me
'Cause there's so much more to me than meets the eye
There's something I've got to say to you tonight
And it's time you took a look at me
'Cause there's so much more to me than meets the eye
Well, there's more to love than makin' time
The harder you look the more you'll find
It's never easy no matter what they say
The harder you look the more you'll find
It's never easy no matter what they say
Love's a hard game to play
The heart's the price that you pay
Love's a hard game to play
No matter what they say
Win or lose, no matter what they say
Well love's a hard game to play
The heart's the price that you pay
Love's a hard game to play
No matter what they say
Win or lose, no matter what they say
Well love's a hard game to play
The problem here is not my fear
The trouble is you can't convince yourself
For tonight, let's lose the past, make love last
Put our worries on the shelf
The trouble is you can't convince yourself
For tonight, let's lose the past, make love last
Put our worries on the shelf
We've been through thick and thin and back again
And we can endure love's sweet pain
Well remember, starting the fire is easy
The hardest part is learning how to keep the flame
And we can endure love's sweet pain
Well remember, starting the fire is easy
The hardest part is learning how to keep the flame
Love's like walking a real fine line
You get too close you'll go blind
Let go too long it, will all drift away
You get too close you'll go blind
Let go too long it, will all drift away
Love's a hard game to play
The heart's the price that you pay
Love's a hard game to play
No matter what they say
So win or lose, no matter what you say
The heart's the price that you pay
Love's a hard game to play
No matter what they say
So win or lose, no matter what you say
Just when I feel like I'm losin' you
I hear those voices call
They say it's better to have lost at love
Than never to have loved at all
Lose or win, stand or fall, stand tall
I hear those voices call
They say it's better to have lost at love
Than never to have loved at all
Lose or win, stand or fall, stand tall
Well, there's more to love than makin' time
The harder you look, the more you'll find
It's never easy, no matter what they say
Love's a hard game to play, baby
The harder you look, the more you'll find
It's never easy, no matter what they say
Love's a hard game to play, baby
Love's a hard game to play
The heart's the price that you pay
Love's a hard game to play
No matter what you say
The heart's the price that you pay
Love's a hard game to play
No matter what you say
Love's a hard game to play
The heart's the price you pay
Love's a hard game to play
No matter what they say
'Cause win or lose, no matter what they say
Well love's a hard game to play
The heart's the price you pay
Love's a hard game to play
No matter what they say
'Cause win or lose, no matter what they say
Well love's a hard game to play
It's a hard game
It's a hard game to play
It's a hard game to play
She's got her ticket - Tracy Chapman
This song popped into my head sort of out of nowhere in the middle of a conversation this afternoon, and said there until finally I had to use Stevie Nicks to get something else going through my head. Very different from each other, which is what usually works for me when I have a song, or part of a song playing in a loop in my monkey mind.
That has happened more often than not the last few days. I'm glad to replace each loop with a new one. Tonight it's Pasty Cline, and still a bit of Stevie Nicks. I wonder which one will get me to sleep tonight, or keep me awake....
she's got her ticket I think she's gonna use it. think she's going to fly away. no one should try to stop her, persuade her with their power. she says that her mind is made up
she's got her ticket I think she's going to use it, think she's going to fly away. no one should try to stop her, persuade her with their power. she says that her mind it made up.
why not leave, why not go away. too much hatred, corruption and greed. give your life and invariably they leave you with nothing.
young girl ain't got no chances, no roots to keep her strong. she shed all pretenses that someday she'll belong. some folks call her a run away, a failure in the race, but she knows where her ticket takes her and she will find her place in the sun.

In the position of "what you resist"
Intention
your objectives will be fulfilled at this time. inspired intentions are like magic arrows shot into the sky. the universe is bringing you a gift, showing you that you're hitting the mark. Recognize that you're not the one who has to do all the work, however; others help you co-create reality. you connect to the power of your intention, sending it out into the field, then allow for synchronicity to work its magic. perhaps the good intentions of others will inspire you to send out beautiful ones of your own. own the life you want to lead, and live deliberately, with clarity and detachment

I had thought last week that things were beginning to flow back into place, but that wasn't quite the case. I have been able to get a lot of work done, and the planning of new projects has been wonderfully inspiring, however it all came at a price.
My hand and arm are getting worse, and I'm more than worried about being able to get enough done for the upcoming fair. I still have to go through my inventory and try to get some costumes finished to display on my dress forms, along with my usual contributions to the need to make a living.
My newest project has gotten me closer to the flow that I need in order to do the work I desire to do, but the unfinished projects are plaguing me, dragging me down to a level that I disdain.
Memories came flooding back, as they tend to in the fall, coupled with the real stresses that are waiting for answers, my energy is at an all time low. Today, two naps were necessary to get me through the day, and only two hours of sewing were allowed.
My daughter's life is on hold, as are several other lives that are close to me. A new baby is on the way. Life ebbs and flows in ways that we can only pretend to control.
I need to find my costume patterns and see if I have enough fabric to get a few things made and ready to go. Steam punk at it's best. Maybe even a Civil War. And then on to Christmas and beading.
Beading will be relaxing. Finishing, not so much. I love starting. Starting is very important to me. I can't wait to show off the latest project. I really think it is one of the most fun. I've put this one off for so long, only to find out that it was really fun. I need to lengthen my work time. Two hours a day will never made a living.

(Elphaba):
I'm limited
Just look at me - I'm limited
And just look at you
You can do all I couldn't do, Glinda
So now it's up to you
For both of us - now it's up to you...
(Glinda):
I've heard it said
That people come into our lives for a reason
Bringing something we must learn
And we are led
To those who help us most to grow
If we let them
And we help them in return
Well, I don't know if I believe that's true
But I know I'm who I am today
Because I knew you...
Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you
I have been changed for good
(Elphaba):
It well may be
That we will never meet again
In this lifetime
So let me say before we part
So much of me
Is made from what I learned from you
You'll be with me
Like a handprint on my heart
And now whatever way our stories end
I know you have re-written mine
By being my friend...
Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a skybird
In a distant wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you
(Glinda):
Because I knew you
(Both):
I have been changed for good
(Elphaba):
And just to clear the air
I ask forgiveness
For the things I've done you blame me for
(Glinda):
But then, I guess we know
There's blame to share
(Both):
And none of it seems to matter anymore
(Glinda):
Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood
(Elphaba):
Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a bird in the wood
(Both):
Who can say if I've been
Changed for the better?
I do believe I have been
Changed for the better
(Glinda):
And because I knew you...
(Elphaba):
Because I knew you...

No I can't take one more step towards you
Cause all that's waiting is regret
Don't you know I'm not your ghost anymore
You lost the love I loved the most
I learned to live half alive
And now you want me one more time...
And who do you think you are
Running around leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart,
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me.
Who do you think you are?
I hear you're asking all around
If I am anywhere to be found
But I have grown too strong
To ever fall back in your arms
And I've learned to live half alive
And now you want me one more time
And who do you think you are
Running around leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts,
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
Don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?
And it took so long just to feel alright
Remember how to put back the light in my eyes
I wish I had missed the first time that we kissed
Cause you broke all your promises
And now you're back
You don't get to get me back
And who do you think you are
Running around leaving scars
Collecting your jar of heart
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Don't come back at all!
And who do you think you are
Running around leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
Don't come back for me
Don't come back at all
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Cause all that's waiting is regret
Don't you know I'm not your ghost anymore
You lost the love I loved the most

Just Wait. It'll Come
When I first started my yoga practice with Rodney Yee, he said "if you can't reach this far, just wait until something moves, something opens to give you space, and reach a bit further".
I'd used that advice in many situations in my life, reminding myself over and over to just wait for it. There are situations that we can not change, decisions to be made, moods telling us to do something, when there is nothing to do, and in each of these, it is better to ... Just wait for it
I feel like I am ready to get my mojo back on. Even though I didn't get much done on the quilt last night, it felt so good to have it layered and ready to go. I need to be able to mark more old projects off the board faster and press through getting projects done.
I can feel how my practice needs to deepen, my writing needs to deepen, I need to engage more with people and I need to allow myself to become the person that I want to be
I felt rally good about getting myself up and moving this morning. It took some work to get out of the house on time, but getting into the car and driving myself to work felt great. It felt "everyday", and the usual nervousness was gone.
I feel really excited about meeting with my SCORE mentor next week. I love the idea of moving back into garment sewing and I am thinking of exchanging the not yet started projects on the list to reflect this change. The idea of being able to open a store would give my life the kickstart that it needs to continue moving forward and give me a name in the community.
My to do list needs to work out a new calendar which highlights a way to catch up, create Christmas, get items on Etsy and put some money away so that I can feel some sort of freedom in my decisions. I love the idea of creating a business that allows me to both support myself completely and to get out and meet people. I hope that I get over my fear of craft fairs and get myself out there, although I do not see this happening as soon as I need it to.
Fresh hair, fresh face, costumed and ready to go. I'll be putting myself best self on display. I need to learn to play the part
When you get specific about what you'll do, and where and when you'll do it, you can get from wanting something to happen to actually making it happen

Nobody Knows -- Tony Rich
I wish I'd told her how I felt. maybe she'd be here right now
but instead
I pretend I'm glad you went away
these four walls close in more every day
and I'm dying inside
and nobody knows it but me
Like a clown I put on a show
the pain is real even if nobody knows
and I'm crying inside and nobody knows it but me
why didn't I say
the things I needed to say
how could I let my angel get away
now my world is just a tumbling down
I can say it so clearly but you're nowhere around
the nights are lonely
days are so sad
and
I just keep thinking about the love that we had
and I'm missing you
and nobody knows it but me
I carry a smile when I'm broken in two
and I'm nobody without someone like you
I'm trembling inside and nobody knows it but me
I lie awake its a quarter past three
I'm screaming at night if I thought you'd hear me
yeah my heart is calling you
and nobody knows it but me
how blue can I get
you could ask my heart
but like a jigsaw puzzle that's been
torn all apart
a million words couldn't say just how I feel
a million years from now you know
I'll be loving you still
the nights are lonely
days are so sad
I just keep thinking about the love that we had
and I'm missing you
and nobody knows it but me
tomorrow morning
I'm hitting the dusty road
gonna find you
where ever you might go
and I'm going to unload my heart
and hope you'll come back to me
the nights are lonely
days are so sad
I just keep thinking about the love that we had
and I'm missing you
and nobody knows it but me
but instead
I pretend I'm glad you went away

Lala lala la lala
Hah aaa aaa

Don't leave me in all this pain
Don't leave me out in the rain
Come back and bring back my smile
Come and take these tears away
I need your arms to hold me now
The nights are so unkind
Bring back those nights when I held you beside me
Don't leave me out in the rain
Come back and bring back my smile
Come and take these tears away
I need your arms to hold me now
The nights are so unkind
Bring back those nights when I held you beside me
Unbreak my heart
Say you'll love me again
Undo this hurt you caused
When you walked out the door
And walked outta my life
Uncry these tears
I cried so many nights
Unbreak my heart
My heart
Say you'll love me again
Undo this hurt you caused
When you walked out the door
And walked outta my life
Uncry these tears
I cried so many nights
Unbreak my heart
My heart
Take back that sad word goodbye
Bring back the joy to my life
Don't leave me here with these tears
Come and kiss this pain away
I can't forget the day you left
Time is so unkind
And life is so cruel without you here beside me
Bring back the joy to my life
Don't leave me here with these tears
Come and kiss this pain away
I can't forget the day you left
Time is so unkind
And life is so cruel without you here beside me
Unbreak my heart

Say that you love
Tell me you love
Unbreak my
Say that you love
Say that you love
Tell me
I'll be missing you
this one got me through the year after my daddy died... and several other years
Seems like yesterday we used to rock the show
I laced the track, you locked the flow
So far from hanging on the block for dough
Notorious, they got to know that
Life ain't always what it seem to be (uh-uh)
Words can't express what you mean to me
Even though you're gone, we still a team
Through your family, I'll fulfill your dream (that's right)
In the future, can't wait to see
If you open up the gates for me
Reminisce some time, the night they took my friend (uh-huh)
Try to black it out, but it plays again
When it's real, feelings hard to conceal
Cant imagine all the pain I feel
Give anything to hear half your breath (half your breath)
I know you still living your life, after death
Chorus: faith evans
Every step I take, every move I make
Every single day, every time I pray
Ill be missing you
Thinking of the day, when you went away
What a life to take, what a bond to break
Ill be missing you
[puff] I miss you big
Verse two: puff daddy
Its kinda hard with you not around (yeah)
Know you in heaven smiling down (eheh)
Watching us while we pray for you
Every day we pray for you
Till the day we meet again
In my heart is where I'll keep you friend
Memories give me the strength I need (uh-huh) to proceed
Strength I need to believe
My thoughts big I just can't define (cant define)
Wish I could turn back the hands of time
Us in the 6, shop for new clothes and kicks
You and me taking flicks
Making hits, stages they receive you on
I still can't believe you're gone (cant believe you're gone)
Give anything to hear half your breath (half your breath)
I know you still living you're life, after death
Chorus
[faith evans] somebody tell me why
Interlude: faith evans
On that morning
When this life is over
I know
Ill see your face
Outro: 112
Every night I pray, every step I take
Every move I make, every single day
Every night I pray, every step I take
[puff] every day that passes
Every move I make, every single day
[puff] is a day that I get closer
[puff] to seeing you again
Every night I pray, every step I take
[puff] we miss you big... and we wont stop
Every move I make, every single day
[puff] cause we can't stop... that's right
Every night I pray, every step I take
Every move I make, every single day
[puff] we miss you big
*music fades out*
3 Doors Down
lots of music on my mind today. after my best chat buddy needed to talk, I feel more than lonely. feeling pretty crappy right now
I guess I just got lost
Bein' someone else
I tried to kill the pain
Nothin ever helped
I left myself behind
Somewhere along the way
Hopin to come back around
To find myself someday
Lately I'm so tired of waiting for you
To say that it's ok, but tell me
Please, would you one time
Just let me be myself
So I can shine with my own light
Let me be myself
Would you let me be myself
I'll never find my heart
Behind someone else
I'll never see the light of day
Living in this cell
It's time to make my way
Into the world I knew
Take back all of these times
That I gave in to you
Lately I'm so tired of waiting for you
To say that it's ok, but tell me
Please, would you one time
Let me be myself
So I can shine with my own light
And let me be myself
For a while, if you don't mind
Let me be myself
So I can shine with my own light
Let me be myself
That's all I've ever wanted from this world
Is to let me be me
Please would you one time
Let me be myself
So I can shine with my own light
Let me be myself
Please would you one time
Let me be myself
So I can shine with my own light
Let me be myself
For a while, if you don't mind
Let me be myself
So I can shine with my own light
Let me be myself
Would you one time... oooh
Let me be myself
Let me be me
I guess I just got lost
Bein' someone else
I tried to kill the pain
Nothin ever helped
I left myself behind
Somewhere along the way
Hopin to come back around
To find myself someday
Lately I'm so tired of waiting for you
To say that it's ok, but tell me
Please, would you one time
Just let me be myself
So I can shine with my own light
Let me be myself
Would you let me be myself
I'll never find my heart
Behind someone else
I'll never see the light of day
Living in this cell

Let me be myself
That's all I've ever wanted from this world

Blurred Lines
They say that Blurred Lines is the song of the summer, and the lines do blur
The lines between what is and what should have been, those lines are not only blurred, but the widen and narrow at will. They seem rather wide right now, with a great chasm between them, a place that drops into infinity, leaving me on the edge, looking down.
Other times the line feels so narrow, with only a veil between here and there, almost allowing me to reach across and touch what I want, what is mine.
The line between here and now and there and then tend to blur with my needs and desires. I let my mind just bring up thoughts and I realize that they are not based in reality. My here and now feels like just a long vacation and there must be an end in sight.
I'm living someone else's life and I have the choice to continue in this world not of my choosing or to try to find my way back to my world. I know where the road is but I am not sure that the emerald city is still in place a the end of the road
I wake from my sleep, but not my dreams. I realize that I am having trouble staying in reality and not living in that dream world. I begin to base my decisions off what ever dream is staying with me, expecting that reality to be my reality
I read a book and feel the character's life ebbing with mine. I begin relating to what the character feels, thinks, sees, does. I find their manner of speech begin to change my speech, their habits confuse me when my life doesn't mesh with theirs.
As I plan out my day, week, moth, I realize that I am expecting some sort of change, but every day is just like the one before it. Thee only difference is the name of the project that must be completed. Nothing else changes. No matter the day, or time o day, I know what I'll be doing.
I will be trying to stay in my reality and create my life from the world that I exist in now.
