Weekend Lessons....

I'm learning some things slowly and surely. And while I say I am NOT someone who would live a life tainted with regret; sadly, I believe I have hinted in the direction occassionally. Unless of course, I am able to work through some of the feelings. Quickly. . And I did.. So I'm still on the path of No Regret.. This year I've learned that there were people who were in my life that prolly should have never been there, and vice versa. I mean there's no one I, contrary to popular belief, hate. I just would have rather "never known them" despite the lessons I've learned from their aquaintance. Matter of fact, some lessons revisited.. and thank God I've learned them this go round... However, there is one person, whom I missed dearly. She helped me through so much. Well we helped each other. Gave each other what we needed when we needed it. Was there when we mutually really needed someone to listen and loan a shoulder.... Life gets in the way. So do the decisions we make. Fortunately for us, it wasn't a big blow up, and nothing got in the way. Except our stubborness.. We lost touch through mutual disappointment in our life choices and paths at the time... So I gave in. Pride is a poison I never want to die from! It's a lonely death. I'm watching someone I love dearly slowly kill herself so I pray for a different path and weekly try to do something different. So this weekend, I looked for my dear friend and found her. It was WONDERFUL... We picked up as if we'd never left off. It was cool. I mean we never missed a beat or the time. Thanks.. To a very special winged wonder who gave me the strength to move forward... I owe you.

Second.. I love frigging CONTACT SPORTS. Thanks to my main man, B-Fran. I have been able to watch some of the best sporting events of the year... I even had a chance to get sweat on me after one of the fighters was kicked out of the ring.. Well, no not sweat, but I was that close.. HA! Friday night after we went to see jet Li in fearless, I got to sit in front of Chuck Norris' , who by the way is very little... at The World Combat League Western Finals.. I cannot describe it, other than to say I CAN'T WAIT TO GO AGAIN!!!! It was fanfriggin'tastic So again.. Thanks B-Fran...

On other notes. The remainder of the weekend was like a Charlie Brown Halloween, "all I got was rocks!" and to add my own twist.. "and they suck hard..."
