Finding the right guy.

Being a woman with a past like mine, finding the "right guy" is tough. Every girl wants that fairy-tale love and in reality with people like us, that just doesn't happen. Not quite the way we expect anyways. But I finally found it. It's not a fairy-tale, for either of us. To be the right guy for for people like me, you must be strong enough to love me no matter what. I have found that guy. The guy that will sit and hold me when I have a random panic attack because I heard a loud noise. The guy that will randomly call me to help through a bad dream or just a bad day. The guy that works night but will still come over early the following morning if I had a bad dream/night just so he can sit with me and help me feel better. The guy that will sit while I fuss about unimportant things because I'm having a rough time dealing with everything. The guy that knows that I don't trust easily but he still took a chance on me and works everyday to help me trust and love him. The guy that puts my fears to rest and even though he doesn't KNOW exactly how I'm feeling, because he didn't go through it, he understands me and is there for me no matter what. He doesn't expect anything from me. He has learned my body language and has now gotten to the point, only at 8 months (almost 9), where he knows what  kind of day I'm having and whats going through my mind before I even tell him. He has learned, subconsciously, to change his demeanor and word choices just to make things easier on me. He knows he doesn't have to, I've dated guys who would just tell em to get over it, but instead he works with me because he loves me. THAT'S what the right guy will do. He will love you despite your "problems" and will learn what to do when these things arise. And he will do it without you asking him to; he does it because he loves you. 
It took me a while to notice the little things he was doing for me. How he could tell when something was wrong and would change the way he chose his words just so nothing got worse. It took me a while to notice these things. He didn't do it to get credit for doing it like most guys; he did it because he loved me and wanted things to be better for me. 
I've noticed these things now. Knowing he has done this and continues to do this without expecting me to give him credit for it, makes me fall in love with him more and more. I know that if I have a bad dream I can call him up and talk to him about it. Or if I have one of those super ridiculous fears pop up that is beyond stupid but I can't shake, I know I can call him and he wont think I'm crazy and criticize me. 
We still have our ups and downs, like I said this isn't a fairy-tale. We fight, we disagree, and sometimes we are just on completely opposite pages of the book; but I know that no matter what he is there for me. To help me through my bad days and to walk beside me on my good days. He is my Mr. Right!

Embracing Imperfection ~ Scars

There are many different posts I can make about "Embracing Imperfection" that's why I added a part to the title regarding this specific post Scars . We all can recognize what an external scar on the skin is; we've all fallen a few times and gotten a scrape that turns into a scar, in some cases the scar fades over time and in other cases they don't. But no-one really takes into account our internal scarring...why is that? Now I don't mean literally inside our body like scar tissue from a surgery, I mean our emotional scarring. The scarring that is so evidently present to us but no-one else sees it. If you take a look at the definition of a scar (just a scar in general) it, of course goes over other details but it also says that it is the process of wound repair and that it is a natural occurrence in the healing process . Let me repeat this...it is the process of wound repair and a natural occurrence in the healing process. What is the difference in that defi...

How do I still believe in God?

A lot of people ask me how I can still believe in God when all of that happened to me when I was younger. So how do I? I’ll explain.  First, People all the time come back with “If God really existed then why would things like that happen in the first place?” Well the answer is this: The devil. We must first remember that Christ also suffered when He was on this earth. HE was beaten, persecuted, and crucified by evil people in this world. By one of his closest people, his own disciple, he was betrayed. That is the first thing that people must remember. The devil has his hold on evil people.  In John 16:33 Jesus tells us that we are going to have suffering, no matter what form it comes in: “These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” God gave us the opportunity to live in the Garden of Eden and Adam and Eve took it unto their own decision, by influence of...

Perspective: "Some see a weed, others see a wish"

We all know the saying about whether the glass is half full or half empty and we are always told to look at things from other perspectives. Well, that's exactly what this blog post will be about. This world is full of evil and evil-doers and while I wish all of these bad things would never occur they do,  keep in mind while reading this I am not saying it's something that should be accepted, I'm simply talking about my personally perspective about MY situation and about general situations. I've learned that by changing your perspective, your life changes. You become happier and the small failures don't become overwhelming to you as they would have before. It doesn't make life perfect and it won't mean you won't have bad times or be depressed at times, but it does a lot more than people give it credit for. Theres a quote that comes up a lot that says "If you don't like something change it; if you can't change it, change the way you look at ...
