~Too much Water has Run Under that Old Bridge~ *Blue*   Author:  48250  Category:(Discussion) Created:(3/27/2008 3:32:00 PM) This post has been Viewed (118 times) I’ve heard it said that when too much water has run under the Bridge, there’s just not too much more to be said. Conway Twitty sang a song with similar meaning when I was a child growing up…….funny how we can relate our lives’ and situations to a song. I guess if I had to choose a favorite by Conway, it would probably be the one where he sings, “ That’s my Job” it reminds me of my Dad and I……..Which brings me to this post. I am too much of my father’s daughter to ever tolerate a lot of negativity of any type in my life------- I feel like I have been through quite a lot, though I‘m sure there are thousands who have went through just as much and more then I---- I count my Blessings., thanking The Lord every day----- Still, I‘m not living other people’s lives and they aren‘t living mine. I‘ve only got one life here and no one else is going to tell me how I should live it……after here Eternity does await….I want my life to count for something to mean something………..and I hope that people will say about me when I have taken my leave---------That lady sure Loved The Lord and she sure Loved People----and animals haha :D. I also believe God LOVES me just the way I am and because of certain circumstances., I think He is also telling me NO--absolutely NO ----------Too many so-called coincidences for me to ignore., regarding Frankie-------- I would walk a mile------a Thousand miles for those I Love------But I know when someone is trying to pull one over on me………For You see, I have David’s Memory----His Love to compare to whatever else may happen in this life of mine and a little bit O’ wisdom to know the difference.- ------While it is true I will never get over losing David., not in this lifetime---and I know we will see each other again Someday I‘ll see that beautiful smile of his, touch his face once again----- Heaven sounds so much Sweeter all the time :)……. I believe that David wanted me to be Happy----although I don’t think he really wanted me to ever be with any one else---------he once told me that he’d come back and haunt me lol….His memory already does that enough as it is :) There are just some things in life we learn to live with---- But I do believe that there is room in my heart to love someone else, but that person must be the “right” Someone else and if it is meant to be it will happen at the “right“ time So, . I have decided after some very serious soul searching, some serious thinking, not to marry Frank. Please don’t get me wrong., I love him and I hope that he and I can remain friends at least I hope so if that is what he wants, but there is simply too many negative situations we would have to overcome…….I hope that he will want to remain friends….although I think some people don’t want to hear that-------but I’d rather be friends with someone, tell them the truth., then hurt them or lose that friendship forever……But if not then that will have to be ok won‘t it?……It’s Kinda like Vern Gosdin sang, “That just about does it, don’t it” --------- There are a whole lot of problems regarding his Younger son-------a MESS really., too much of a mess for me to help clean up., I will say that much..------------I’ll also say that this Kentucky woman saw all I needed to see a few days ago-----too much of a difference in our worlds I guess one could say. Or perhaps just as Conway Once sang, “Too much water has run under that Old Bridge” Since we’ve been apart----------- Too much has changed, too much has happened-----maybe he didn’t really know the real me----when a person is in grief, suffering loss that person is “not” the same person they were before the devastation……nor will they ever be again…….but I tend to believe that old saying, “What doesn’t kill you will make You stronger” --------even through the reality of this situation, see it for how it truly is and be a better person for it…..I like to believe that the people who I love and the love I show them is but a reflection of themselves., Love me for me., for who I am------It would seem that when some people find out that I am not this helpless defenseless half-drowned, half-starved kitten., they seem put-off., offended insulted somehow… My Dad; I could just hear him laughing about that one, he’d say many facets to my girl there might be, but helpless is surely not one of them! haha------ And Just for the record; I helped raise a niece, don‘t have any sweet children of my own., just my dogs and they are “messier“ then 10 Youngins!!! Lol ;) But, I cannot “help“ those who aren‘t ready to be helped especially with they being adults themselves and their problems stem from irresponsibility--------- I made the choice not to attend the Joyce Meyer Ministry Conference in Memphis, Tenn. And if it is possible sometime I will attend., You can bet Your boots I will! :D So instead., I Drove all the way to Mt Vernon, (Kentucky) yesterday to pick up my Older brother’s car, it had broke down on him..--------Gee the things I do for my family!!!! lol----- But You All “know” how I really feel about those I LOVE… Well, I “knew“ this made Frank angry…..Volcano building up---- up------- up-----------coming to a crescendo don‘t you know ---------Then, , my Mama’s Boyfriend was concerned because I had never hauled a car before-----I replied to him, “ Hmmmm how much different do You suppose it could be compared to hauling 48,000 pds of steel?” He cracked up and then said well now that’s different, Your mom didn’t tell me that……I laughed and said just so long as I had David there to back it (the semi and flat-bed combination) up for me., I didn’t care lol------He said Girl, what are you doing around here you should have Your CDL and out there on the Big slab haulin-----------Hmmmm er Ahem -------Haulin hahaha!! Well though I took the advice from some very precious people from here at USM; they’re Wisdom., when they said to me not to mention David so much----------love him forever but the past is the past----------move on live life------- love and be happy------Hey Gang, I even bought a sign and hung it in my Kitchen, it reads: “ Live Well---Laugh Often and Love Much”--------No Problem!! Haha! Well, I thank my Sweet Precious Angels for their wonderful advice, they’re heartfelt concern. I am doing wonderful actually and this has been quite a liberating experience for me ^_^ So, anyway Frank; he says he needed time to think about every thing…….so I reply to him., take all the time you need------------haha Well, then Rags peed in my floor this morning! between the bathroom, the foyer and another bedroom------then I had a clog----in my kitchen sink-----opened the drain------this goop squirted all over me-----------got that taken care of------------opened the pantry and all my pots, pans, skillets .,cookware came out all at Once!!!!….I said thanks for doing my dishes……hahaha!!! ! and so I shall take my leave., while I’ve got my shoes on and ready to go!!!--------------If that old water gets a little deep, Children I’ll just roll up my pants---------I always did love rolled-up Blue jeans besides., I never did mind dancing in the Rain!!! Hahaha I LOVE You, USM Thanks for loving me back!!
