it's always in the small details

as i end this week - i realize that everything we really need to know is in the small details.

the way someone looks at you when they make a statement

the way they curve the lines of their "A's"

the way they sigh after trying to be honest with you

i am glad the week is over and i am sort of ready for the holidays to be over and the new year to start.

i really feel that awesome and positive things are right around the corner - resting on the horizon - waiting for my approach.

there were so many people who just wanted to accept me at face value but take me for everything i had to give. no more - someone who really cares about me is going to be just that - someone who really cares about me.

i was so worried about letting people in my life - i was restrictive and selective and can't say i have always made the best decisions but i know there are a handful of people who walked into my life in 2008 that i am confident will never ever leave.

i love those people dearly.
