COOKIE's blog: "Relationships"

Just because no one has been fortunate enough to realize what a gold mine you are, Doesn't mean you shine any less. Just because no one has been smart enough to figure out that you can't be topped, Doesn't stop you from being the best. Just because no one has come along to share your life, Doesn't mean that day isn't coming. Just because no one has made this race worthwhile, Doesn't give you permission to stop running. Just because no one has realized how much of an awesome woman you are, Doesn't mean they can affect your femininity. Just because no one has shown up who can love you on your level, Doesn't mean you have to sink to theirs. Just because you deserve the very best there is, Doesn't mean that life is always fair. Just because God is still preparing your king, Doesn't mean that you're not already a Queen. Just because your situation doesn't seem to be progressing right now, Doesn't mean you need to change a thing. Keep shining, keep running, Keep hoping, and keep praying, Keep being exactly what you are already. COMPLETE!! Send this on to your female friends who need to keep on doing what they do best. BEING A WOMAN OF GOD!!!!

Someone turned to me and asked "How many friends have you?" Why 10 or 20 friends I believe And began to named a few... A blessed one you are To have so many friends But think of what you're saying... A friend is just not someone To whom you say "Hello" A friend is a tender shoulder On which to softly cry A well to pour your troubles down And raise your spirits high A friend is a hand to pull you up From darkness and despair... When all your other "so called" friends Have helped to put you there A true friend is an ally Who can't be moved or bought A voice to keep your name alive When others have forgot But most of all a friend has a true heart For from the hearts of friends There comes the greatest love of all! So think about all this For every word is true And once again answer please... How many friends have you? After much thought I answered I really only have just one "It's You!" A Friend Is Always Special Because Friends Love You Just Because You're You! -Author Unknown

This is to the guys who can't accept the good women for who truly they are: **************************************************** I'm sorry that I have morals and did not let you hit it on the first date. I'm sorry that I expected you to open the car door,and pull out my chair like I was raised. I'm sorry that I am actually nice and I didn't treat you like shit. I'm sorry I like to spend quality nights at home talking to you, instead of at a club. I'm sorry That I am always the one you always need to vent to, but never good enough for you to be with. I'm sorry that you can't accept me for who I am. I'm sorry that you tell me how much better I am, yet I am not good enough for you. I'm sorry that I'm attracted to your personality instead of your body or your wallet. I'm sorry that I was always the one that listened when you were going throuh drama with you ex, but I was never someone you could really see yourself with. But I'm sorry when I start not being there for you, and get tired of being used as a door mat, only to be thrown to the side when a new chick comes around. I'm sorry that you couldn't realize that I would have been the one to stick it out through thick and thin. But most of all I'm sorry For NOT being sorry anymore **************************************************** I'm really sorry if you read this and know somebody like this

It's incredible that the ones we trust the most are usually the ones who hurt us the worst. It is only when we make ourselves vulnerable that we give another being the power to break us. We make it so easy for them to hold our heart in the palm of their hands as we unknowingly just sit back and watch them squeeze it tighter and tighter until it no longer beats. We rather sit in denial because we do not want to accept that the one we hold so high could care so little. We look away and make excuses for their behavior. How long can we look away and pretend? Still, at end of it all we are left to pick up the mess and gather our emotions- and then the only regret is not getting out sooner. The time you wasted on someone that did not appreciate you, used you, and allowing yourself to let your guard down. EVERYTHING in life, both good and bad IS a learning experience. Though through the fog of pain it's impossible to see, there is always a clear purpose behind it. You will become stronger, more cautious, or even bitter. Every single heartache is necessary in order for us to grow, learn, and become who we are meant to be in life. In time new love will bloom and an aching heart will begin to beat again...stronger than before...
