goneee . .

so um . . i guess it's true what they say ;

'absence makes the heart grow fonder'

for me, i've experienced this is many situations . i've missed someone . . knowing they'll be back & i've also missed someone knowing i won't see see them again . when you're without someone who you're used to constantly being in your presence, or constantly talking to them . . you realize so much about them . you tend to appreciate them so much more . & maybe even that you took them being there for granted

i went through this heavy with my mom when she passed . i realized that i didn't appreciate her as much as i should've & i DEFINITELY took her for granted in more ways than one . now, that she's no longer with us, i appreciate so much more all the things she taught me & the things she put me through to teach me . & i will always think they are the reason for me being the way i am today .

it sucks that it takes someone being missing for you to fully put things into perspective about them . i'm going through this even now . my boyfriend is in a little 'situation' & i haven't talked to him in almost a week & we were supposed to be together this weekend . but during this time i haven't talked to him . . i guess you can say i realized how i truly felt for him . & i really miss him .

so basically what i'm trying to say is . . . appreciate your loved ones & let them know often how much you love them . because you never know when they can easily be torn from your life for whatever reason .

peace . [ love ] . lisha ♥

SONG OF THE DAY : officially missing you - tamia ♥

reasonable doubt . .

'to wish you were someone else is to waste who you are'

well. . today i was sitting around thinking [ & yes, i do think ] about all the people who've hurt me . i know it's weird to sit around & think about these things but for me, thinking about all the struggles & things i've been through makes me feel better as well as motivates me .

but anyways . . i was thinking that MOST of the people who've hurt me are people who i've given the benefit of the doubt . . well i'm not doing that anymore . in 2O1O, i've set MAJOR goals . .& i'm not gunna let anybody else bring me down more than some other people have tried . from now on . . i'm gunna start trusting my first instinct . if i have a bad feeling about something from jump . .i'm gunna stick with that .



i know it seems as if i'm going to be judging books by their covers . . & i'm not gunna lie, in a sense i am . but remember ; for soo long, i've been the person to not judge a book by its cover & look where it's gotten me .


while i am thankful for my struggles & the people who've hurt me . . [ ya'll thinking 'wow she's dumb' . ] because they've made me who i am today . they are all things i wish i never had to endure . but i am kinda glad i did .


peace . [ love ] . lisha


SONG OF THE DAY : nothin on you - b.o.b. ♥

 











 

just wait . .

miss me ? tonight, i'm coming at you guys on some real spit for real .

so . . i guess you guys know about how i was on this lil 'hunt' for mr.right for a while, right ? well . . i stopped . it was becoming tiring & i kept getting stuck with a whole bunch of wannabes . people that weren't worth my time or patience [ go figure that ] . i decided to just sit back & WAIT .

i learned about this lil thing called patience . & how important it truly is . . you ever heard this saying ;

"good things come to those who wait"

me & james on our first date at the hawks game :) ♥

it's very true . after i finally decided to quit searching & just wait . . i was sent something indescribable . i never fathomed being this happy with a person . & as most of you know, happiness is something that i more than deserve . it hasn't even been that long . . but i can see that my patience paid off .

"i waited patiently for the LORD ; he turned to me & heard my cry" - Psalm 40:1

so basically, what i'm saying is . . stop rushing & going out & looking for yourself for things . . just wait . the longer you wait, the better the reward is . - peace . love . lisha ♥

SONG OF THE DAY : stay in my life - ester dean ♥

 

the sweetest thing i've ever known . .

omg so i know ya'll probably hate me right now . . but i've just been super busy . but here's just a little update on life right now . . i've FINALLY been cuffed . . yay ! haha . after all this time . . lil ol lisha finally found somebody . . & he's a very good guy . :) shout out to you babe ♥

but anyways onto tonight's topic . . . . TRUST . yes, i said it . i know you guys are thinking 'how dare you speak . . well type such a word' . . but over the last few days i've been put in a stiuation where i've been trying to figure out what exactly this trust thing is & where does it come from . people run around saying 'you can't trust dudes/girls at all' . . but do you even know what trust is ? 

DICTIONARY DEFINITION PLEASE ! :

'reliance on the integrity, strength, ability, surety, etc. of a person or thing ; confidence'

so wait . . you're saying i'm supposed to rely on this person's integrity . . but what if they don't have any ? . . unfortunately, not everyone has a good, kind heart . . or has your best interest at heart . people will come into your life & screw you over [trust me, i know] & it's not a good feeling at all . . especially when you trusted that person . am i saying you shouldn't trust anyone ? no . what i am saying is that you need to be very careful in who you do choose to trust . i honestly don't just go handing out trust to just ANYONE . . cause half of these people aren't worth the pain & heartache .  trust, to me . . is like love . . they kinda correlate in a sense . . if you think about it . do you just go around loving everybody ? . . didn't think so . . so you shouldn't just go around handing your trust to everyone either . . & with that . . i'm out . i'll be a lot better with blogging . . just had some things going on . . but i love you guys :) . . thanks so much for continuing to support me - peace . love . lisha . ♥
