			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well when my best friend who hardly reads my blog (I&#8217;m kidding ,you know I love you mama!) points out to me that I haven&#8217;t written much lately, I know I&#8217;m slacking off! lol</p>
<p>So for the few of you that do read my blog I&#8217;m sorry I have been neglecting the blog lately and I promise I will start writing much much more! This past month and a half has been crazy&#8230;I am working full time, going to school full time, and then on my &#8220;free&#8221; time with my 3 boys&#8230;my son, a new special someone in my life and his son but I will tell you more about that later since I have to run off to school! But I will leave you with this poem that I saw on my friends blog today, he told me I could post it on my blog, it&#8217;s so perfectly fitting for where my life is right now&#8230;</p>
<p>Life and Love~<br />
Two things in this life that you just can’t control;<br />
What happens tomorrow, and what you feel in your soul.<br />
You seek to identify the answers within,<br />
That take you steps closer to the place you’ll begin.<br />
By the way of the journey, different questions you ask;<br />
But the path was well worth it at the end of each task.<br />
Why you’re here, what you’re doing, which direction you’ll take;<br />
Who will love you for you at the end of each day.<br />
Certain instances in time will deceive your clear view;<br />
They’ll shake you, they’ll break you, and they’ll shape what you do.<br />
In the end you’ve grown stronger from the hurt you&#8217;ve obtained,<br />
They’ve empowered your feelings, but the questions remain.<br />
How can you get over precious moments in time,<br />
That will make you the person someone else will desire?<br />
True love is a gauntlet with no easy way out,<br />
That will always grab hold of inconceivable doubt.<br />
In a sense it’s quite beautiful, and can bring you great joy;<br />
It’s one key in the life of one girl, and one boy.<br />
It can be deceitful; Lord, it can be unjust,<br />
But to live without love is to live without trust.<br />
God designs us with flaws, so we’ll be incomplete;<br />
We struggle and work for what we seek to achieve.<br />
Nothings easy in life, and there will always be pain;<br />
To be human is to fall over and over again.<br />
We pick ourselves up, and we dust ourselves off,<br />
And shine a new light on the path that we walk.<br />
Through the good, and the bad, as our lives do unfold,<br />
As the journey brings hardship, and indignation takes hold;<br />
We must always remember that our purpose for life,<br />
Is to love with great courage, and with all of our might!<br />
You can never anticipate what tomorrow brings forth;<br />
But <span class="yshortcuts">life without love</span> makes living too short!</p>
