My beautiful boy.

It's been  four years, but I still miss you as if it was yesterday.
Growing up you were my best friend, you made my childhood extra happy, and for that I'm eternally grateful. My memories are filled with times spent with you. Playing in the garden, water fights in the summer, the excitement you unleashed every Christmas and birthday, the way you used to snore, all these things and thousands more are stored forever in my mind.
I'd give anything to have you back for five minutes, to hug you once more and look into your big brown eyes.
I know you're not in pain anymore, and I know you're not suffering.
As long as we remember you, you continue existing.
You will always be a part of me and my heart will carry on loving you until it's last beat.

Sometimes we just need to open our eyes to the beauty that surrounds us.

Love & Hate.

To truly hate someone, you have to love them deeply, I think. Hate is such a strong emotion which runs parallel with love. "There's a thin line between love and hate." We often talk of hate without fully understanding it's true meaning and without feeling it's full power, and it is of love we also speak of in that sense. To care about someone so much and put so much emotion, energy and time into hating that person, I don't see the point. Wouldn't the world be a nicer, better and happier place if we channeled all that passion into love?

Thank you for showing me the way

From the first time I saw you, I loved you.
The first time I held you, my heart melted.
The first time you clasped my finger and looked at me, I realised there was nothing I wouldn't do for you.
You're growing up and I'm not there to see you everyday, but know that no matter how far away I am, I will always be here for you and I will love you forever.

Never let me go..

At this moment in time there are 6,783,557,879 human beings in the world, give or take a few. Somewhere amongst the mass of souls is you. There is also another soul. One that you may not have even met yet. A soul that is going to be a huge part of your life. Someone who has the capacity to change your world forever. As strong as we think we are, at the end of the day, we all have a certain sensitivity about us. We will all find a person, or maybe various people, in whom we put our complete faith and trust. In doing so we give that person the power to make us happy and to create pain. We give them total control over our emotions. We most likely will have to sort through mounds of individuals until we find one who, not only we feel is worthy of having the key to our soul, but who believes we are able to keep theirs safe. And when your spirit combines with his completely, well, that's got to be worth the years of searching. Right?

I love you.

Who knew three simple words could be so complicated?

Emerald Isle

Land of my forefathers,

I feel it's magic run through my veins...

New Found Obsession...The Good Kind =D

So, this afternoon I found an amazing band! I'm so excited about them, their music is so fresh and I was speechless when I first heard their song Photographs. You may have heard of them, they're called Ghostlight.

I'm so thankful for social networking sites right now, I was introduced to them through Twitter thanks to them following me. I in turn checked out their MySpace page (http://www.myspace.com/ghostlighttheband) and was spellbound!

I then sent the link to my best friend, who also decided that they're pretty good. I can't wait til next February to buy their album!

Please, please, please check out their MySpace, and thank you, thank you, thank you to social networking sites!

Life in Perspective

It's that time again! Another I.T class, another hour of my life lost.. Don't worry though you aren't distracting me, the teacher hasn't come and yet I'm still sat, boiling to death, in this classroom...

Recently I've been thinking, often we don't realise exactly what's in front of us.

"As we strain to grasp the things we desire, the things we think will make our life better: money, popularity, fame... we ignore what truly matters... the simple things, like friendship, family, love. The things we probably already had."

I heard that quote the other day, and I was drawn to it's truthfullness. Sometimes I think we need to just sit down and take a minute to be thankful for what we have. We are often too quick to complain about how badly life's treating us right now, or how depressed we are, but I implore you to close your eyes and think. We say those things, but I honestly don't think we know their true meaning. As a nation, on the whole, we are the lucky ones. We aren't in the Third World, we have access to clean water and a health service, we aren't living in extreme poverty, most of us don't have to worry about where our next meal is coming from... Just take a moment to think. Is your life really THAT bad? 

I believe that when life's getting you down, you mustn't let the bad overshadow the great. Look for the good things, it might take you a while to realise what they are but when you do, you'll come to see that they are the most important things. Things that quite often are so simple and taken for granted but are what truly matter.

We'll meet again...

It makes you realise how precious and fragile life is, because we're young we assume we're untouchable, invincible, but the truth is we're just as vulnerable as everybody else.

It hits us hard when death touches someone we know, I think that it hits us harder when it's someone your own age.

Truth is, nobody knows what's around the corner. We shouldn't put things off by saying I'll do them tomorrow, because what if today's all we have left? Make each day count, never go to bed on an argument or slam the front door as you walk out in a rage, you might never get the chance to return. Don't live your life for someone else, do what you want, say how you feel. Don't be scared of your emotions and don't try to fight them.

Bad things happen just try not to let them overshadow the good. Don't let grief cloud the fun times you spent together and don't let it lock away the memories.

Whatever you do, don't let life pass you by. You never know when your time is up.

Gracias :)

Me gustaría decir lo mucho que significas para mí, que entraste en mi vida para el mejor, te quiero y estaré allí siempre.

Me haces feliz y me haces reír.

Nunca pensé que sería tan afortunada de tener a alguien como tu, y por eso estoy eternamente agradecida.

Te amaré hasta mi último aliento...

Love The Way You Lie

I can't tell you what it really is, I can only tell you what it feels like... and that is awful. You made me feel like this for 2 years and now it’s happening again. Before you I never knew this sensation, at first it was interesting, different and fun. Now, I hate it. The constant sick feeling, the way you just walk across my mind and fill my thoughts, my days are spent daydreaming about you. I see you and my eyes light up, my heart skips a beat and a million butterflies start floating around my tummy. We’ve known each other for what seems like forever and whenever I’ve spent a lot of time with you an hour later I miss you. I don’t have to pretend around you and I can be completely myself, we’ve grown up together so what’s the use in pretending? The worse thing is I know you don’t feel the same and yet I can’t hate you for it. I’m young... Is this what love is meant to feel like? All I know is so far in my life I’ve never felt like this, and if it really is the L word it’s just my luck really that it’s unrequited.

Taste Bite

So, I've jumped on the blogging band wagon and here it is. My first blog.
I realise it's title is a song by Biffy Clyro, but just so as you're aware my blog is not going to be a dedication to them. Who knows, I may end up writing an entry about them but that isn't what I set out to do. To be honest with you I don't know what I have set out to achieve with this blog... I imagine it will be a mix of my random witterings about things I like, things I don't and anything that takes my fancy really. Anyhooo, I hope you enjoy it and I hope I enjoy writing it!

P.S Okay, so maybe I'll add a picture of Biffy Clyro just to be polite...After all they are a great band ;)
