Life can be so crazy sometimes!! Just when you think your heading in one direction, something/someone comes along and yanks you off in the opposite direction.

As much as I've been trying to stay happy over the past year since my marriage split, the past while has been a huge struggle that I felt I was starting to lose.


This past weekend I met someone so amazing and beautiful, I can hardly take it! She and I hit it off right away, and thankfully, she is quite forward. I have had a great lack of confidence since my seperation, and second guess myself way too much... progress for us would have been far slower if it were all up to me.
Anyhow, we had our first date last night, and it was wonderful! She arrived at my place in one of the most beautiful dresses I've ever seen... she was stunning!!! We made dinner together, and afterwards went for a really great walk! We found a secluded rocky point with a spectacular view, and here we shared our first kiss.

I am so filled with happiness, I can hardly take it, it's pretty overwhelming!

Who knows what will happen with the relationship? What I do know is, that I can not let this pass me by. Because of my divorce, I am afraid of getting hurt, and if this new relationship does not work out, it will hurt. I am ready to take that chance again, I feel strong again... and I love it!!!


I am not in love
But I'm open to persuasion
East or West
Where's the best
For romancing

With a friend
I can smile
But with a lover
I could hold my head back
I could really laugh
Really laugh

Thank you
You took me dancing
'Cross the floor
Cheek to cheek
But with a lover
I could really move
Really move
I could really dance
Really dance
Really dance
Really dance
I could really move
Really move
Really move
Really move

Now if I can feel the sun
In my eyes
And the rain on my face
Why can't I
Feel love

I can really love
Really love
Really love
Really love
Really love
Love love love love
Love love love love

Now I got all
The friends that I want
I may need more
But I shall just stick to those
That I have got
With friends I still feel
So insecure

Little darling I believe you could
Help me a lot
Just take my hand
And lead me where you will
No conversation
No wave goodnight
Just make love
With affection

Sing me another love song
But this time
With a little dedication
Sing it, sing it
You know that's what I like
Once more with feeling
Give me love
Give me love
Give me love
Love...
