A little piece of me

September 2, 2010 by yang  

When he told me he was leaving I felt like a vase which has just smashed.There were pieces of me all over the tidy, tn requin tan tiles.He kept talking,telling me why he was leaving,explaining it was for the best, I could do better,it was his fault and not mine.I had heard it before many times and yet somehow was still not immune;perhaps one did not become immune to such felony.He left and I tried to get on with my life.I filled the kettle and put it on to boil,I took out my old red mug and filled it with coffee watching as each coffee granule slipped in to the bone china.That was what my life had been like, nike requin endless omissions of coffee granules,somehow never managing to make that cup of coffee.
Somehow when the kettle piped its finishing warning I pretended not to hear it.That's what Mike's leaving had been like,sudden and with an awful finality.I would rather just wallow in uncertainty than have things finished.requin nike I laughed at myself.Imagine getting all philosophical and sentimental about a mug of coffee.I must be getting old.And yet it was a young woman who stared back at me from the mirror.Don't you want A young woman full of promise and hope,a young woman with bright eyes and full lips just waiting to take on the world.I never loved Mike anyway.Besides there are more important things. More important than love,I insist to myself firmly.The lid goes back on the coffee just like closure on the whole Mike experience.
He doesn't haunt my dreams as I feared that night.Instead I am flying far across fields and woods, looking down on those below me.Suddenly I fall to the ground and it is only when I wake up that I realize I was shot by a hunter,r4 shox brought down by the burden of not the bullet but the soul of the man who shot it.I realize later,with some degree of understanding,that Mike was the hunter holding me down and I am the bird that longs to fly.The next night my dream is similar to the previous nights, but without the hunter.I fly free until I meet another bird who flies with me in perfect harmony.I realize with some relief that there is a bird out there for me,there is another person,not necessarily a lover perhaps just a friend,but there is someone out there who is my soul mate. rival shox I think about being a broken vase again and realize that I have glued myself back together,what Mike has is merely a little part of my time in earth,a little understanding of my physical being.He has only,a little piece of me.
About ten years ago when I was an undergraduate in college,I was working as an intern at my University's Museum of Natural History.One day while working at the cash register in the gift shop, I saw an elderly couple come in with a little girl in a wheelchair.As I looked closer at this girl,I saw that she was kind of perched on her chair.I then realized she had no arms or legs,just a head,neck and torso. nike shox r4 She was wearing a little white dress with red polka dots.As the couple wheeled her up to me I was looking down at the register.I turned my head toward the girl and gave her a wink.As I took the money from her grandparents,I looked back at the girl,who was giving me the cutest,largest smile I have ever seen.
All of a sudden her handicap was gone and all I saw was this beautiful girl,whose smile just melted me and almost instantly gave me a completely new sense of what life is all about.She took me from a poor, shox nz unhappy college student and brought me into her world;a world of smiles,love and warmth.That was ten years ago.I'm a successful business person now and whenever I get down and think about the troubles of the world,I think about that little girl and the remarkable lesson about life that she taught me.
Perhaps life has become so busy that you feel like your schedule rarely coincides with that of your partner or kids. nz shox How about leaving them a note somewhere unexpected?You’ve probably all heard of kids having little notes from their mom’s in their lunch bags – that’s one place to start,but how about a note by the kettle,in the fridge,on the pillow,on the computer screen...?This can become a bit of a game as you compete to leave a note in the most unusual places!
Physical gestures mean a huge amount,and a hug can be just what a loved one needs to put a big smile on their face. nike shox nz Whether it’s snuggling up on the sofa with your partner or giving your kids a goodnight hug,being held and warmed by another person is a perfect way to feel loved.A time-honored way to say “I love you” is to write a poem.You don’t have to be Shakespeare – look for sincere,original ways to tell someone that you love them.Try not to fall back on hackneyed phrases about their beautiful blue eyes or their rosy red lips;write about something that’s meaningful to you,perhaps that dimple on their chin,or the way they laugh at your jokes.ykl
