I finished reading a great book today and I hate that sometimes I am so ready to devour a book and when I am finished I am left with an empty feeling because I probably went too fast. But that's okay, I have a habit of rereading books more than a few times, especially my favorites which I will probably read at least 10 times.

The reason this book is so good, I think, is because I felt myself identifying with it. Maybe not the whole thing but there were certain little truths and that is what I truly love about books, you can find yourself in them; or, at least, you can find the person you used to be or maybe the person you wish you were.

This quote above really spoke to me. There are people in my life that I hold a lot of anger towards and, for the most part, I do feel like I have good reasons. There is the girl that sent me the "anonymous" e-mail, being cruel about a part of me that she knew I was insecure about. Or the boy who knew I loved him and used it to his advantage to get what he wanted. I could go on. I won't. Then again, I have to think I learned something from the people that treated me badly and hurt me. I have someone particular in mind because sometimes I still want to shout at him and make him feel horrible for the wrongs he committed towards me. But then again, had things not happened exactly how they did maybe I would not know how to cherish all the things I have now.

It's kind of like a second chance.... only not with the person you started with. Then again, would you really want to try to continue with the person who brought out the absolute worst in you? Maybe both of you have changed in ways but you will never change completely.

God I'm babbling. It's been a long weekend.

My boyfriend got me one of the most thoughtful gifts. I really am a lucky girl. D, I love you.

Also, please pray for my grandma. She's having surgery done tomorrow.

Anyway. That's all for now.
