Brief rant...

One of these days, I will learn to stop expecting people to be anything other than who they are. My life is filled with family who truly love me, but are emotionally unavailable; and friends that care for me, yet are totally incapable of emotional support. Yet, at moments of despair, I turn to these people, only to be disappointed. Is that not the very essence of insanity? Sometimes, I get so worked up inside of my own thoughts and fears, that I can't talk to God and worse, can't clarity enough to hear from God. It's often a pretty lonely road.

The sun will rise soon. Too bad, I can't stay in bed until then.

Toronto...here I come!

Anyone that knows me, knows that I love to travel. I will get my money together and plan a trip in a heart beat. Traveling is fun, educational, relaxing and exhausting all at the same time; but I love it! Every chance I get, I try to travel to some place new. There's so much world out there and so little time to see and experience it all. I've been wound so tightly the past couple of months. Between work and the new home, most days I don't know whether I'm going or coming. I need a serious break. Unfortunately, the serious break won't come until later this year. I'm thinking London, Italy, Paris or Barcelona. Europe is truly calling out to me. For now though, a couple of mini excursions will have to do. This Easter weekend, I'm headed to Toronto for an all around good time, a little spa time, a bit of tourist time and a whole lot of party time. I plan to take in as much as I can during my brief stay. So Toronto, you better not let me down!!!
