That countdown before man walks on the moon
When a child makes his first steps.
How a rose would be so beautiful
because of the care you've given it.
It's that sense of accomplishment.

It's the smile on your face
and the confidence in your walk.
It's when no one's around
and it's all up to you.
It's that sense of accomplishment.

It's not how long you'll get there
how hard it is
what everyone else thinks
or it being a big task
but it's the feeling of finish
when you cross that line
when you buy your first car
or change your first tire.

Never can you stay down
when your always climbing up.
Never can your skies darken
if your always looking for light.
Taking one big step
or many small ones,
It's that sense of accomplishment...

that drives me...

to wanting better.

Through a series of unfortunate events in my relationship fields, I have decided to throw in the towel and date without commitment. This is Columbus, it's a big place and honestly, I don't need added stress about trying to pull a guy to tell me his "feelings." Normally that just happens on it's own right? Actually, I haven't started yet. I've only been single less than a week. I guess I wanted to take some time to just mourn, but no one's really feeling bad for me, life goes on, and he's still being a jerk via email. Soo... best way for a cancer to forget about a broken heart... meet other people. Since I caught him on plenty of fish with his own special profile and updated pictures of events we went together (does it sound like i'm bitter?) My choice of preference was Craigslist. Yes, I know, both are meat markets, but honestly I didn't want to run in the same neighborhood as his and I'm not really looking for a relationship remember? Just dating.

Okay, enough with the violin. My whole point of this blog is the responses. First of all, I distinctly pointed out no one younger, no one shorter, and no one that smokes. but what I think men heard was, no one younger, shorter and smokes...except for me.

Several 27 year olds ( I'm 10 years older)

I have decided to take this area in my life with great humor and very lightly.

ah but, it's only my first day
