"Sigh No More"

-I love this. So I'm posting it.-

Sigh no more, ladies, sigh no more,

Men were deceivers ever;

One foot in sea, and one on shore,

To one thing constant never.

Then sigh not so, But let them go,

And be you blith(e) and bonny,

Converting all your sounds of woe

Into Hey nonny, nonny.

Sing no more ditties, sing no mo

Of dumps so dull and heavy;

The fraud of men was ever so,

Since summer first was leavy.

Then sigh not so, But let them go,

And be you blith(e) and bonny,

Converting all your sounds of woe

Into Hey nonny, nonny.

Realizations At A Summer's End

It's been a quite a long time since I last posted an entry here. An entire summer, in fact. And within this summer that is almost past a lot of things have happened and changed. My sister is now a married woman. My mother has been diagnosed with breast cancer but has had a successful surgery and is now beginning the healing process. And I've felt like I've done a lot of growing up and letting go of negativity. I thought that my eyes were opened wide enough. I was definitely fooled.

There are still some things, however, that haven't changed:

I'm still crazy nauseous all the time, in and out of the doctor's office. At this point, I'm going to start calling myself a medical mystery.

Financial situations still make me want to cry, if only I really could.

Fall classes are about to start up again. I'm nervous but mostly excited for them to begin. Even though it can be stressful at times I find the learning process very intriguing.

Happiness is something that I haven't truly experienced (in a long time) and it is something that I usually don't trust. But now I'm going to give it a chance and see where it takes me. It's a learning process for me, love is, and I am ready to begin the learning process of its true meaning.
