Every day is a new day, this past year for me and my kids has been such a long year and an emotional roller coaster. I am so much happier now than I was a year ago, I realized that giving it another chance is not always the best choice sometimes you just have to let go and move on and hope everything turns out ok. You can forgive things done to you but you can never ever forget. When something wasn’t meant to be from the beginning its not going to be. I did come out of my marriage winning though, I have my amazing children and they made everything I ever endured worth it! I would not change the last 14 years of my life for anything in the world!!!
Reflections of my life~Taking Chances
All my life I was scared to take chances but took them, especially in love, chances which have caused heartache but have given my life much meaning. Those chances made me the person I am today. I am not one to regret anything in my life, but live for the moment. I was blessed with 5 beautiful children with some of those chances I took, I wouldn’t change anything in my life. I know I myself have caused heartache but to change that, I would have to change my heartaches so I hope I was truly forgiven for those I have caused. I never have truly trusted anyone in my life. I have always held back a little just in case, but I think I cheated myself out of ever truly being in love with someone. I’ve been married for almost 11 years and still go by my maiden name. I think I set myself up for failure. I never gave all so how could I have expected all. I never got to know the man who gave me life which may have something to do with it or not. I don’t know. I pray that God has blessed him with love , long life and happiness. I don’t know how much time left I have on this earth but I will live the rest of my days for my children. The great woman who brought me into this world left it almost 19 years ago, that was the worst heartache I’ve experienced all my life, and pray not to ever have to experience any other feeling like it. So reflecting back on all the years of my life I thank God for every person that has touched my life in one way or another. The song The Dance~ Garth Brooks has always been my favorite song since the first time I heard it, which twenty one years ago when I experienced my first heartbreak. I decided long ago to make sure to live my life without any regrets and take chances even if I still didn’t give all I gave all I could and I would do every single thing again. Taking chances maybe hard to do especially after you’ve been hurt once before but take them and give all don’t cheat yourself out of anything, you only live once and you can not take things back even if you do regret them. Love with all you got, live life like there’s no tomorrow, and treasure every single happy moment of your life.
My Mother
19 years ago my mother suffered a heart attack and 10 days later she passed away. I was 3 months pregnant and this was the worst time in my life. I came home from a night out that night and saw my mom blessing the house she had a ponytail on and I told her she looked cute in it. We went to bed and she forgot to come give me a kiss as she did every night and I told her this and she said she was in bed already and I said I was too, I said jokingly ok well tomorrow don’t forget. Tomorrow never came, she had her heart attack and never regained consciousness and she passed away April 10, 1993 in the wee hours of the morning. I heard the phone call come in telling my dad she had passed. Before that phone call I felt her come to me and kiss me and it felt real not like in a dream. Those ten days I prayed and prayed and prayed for God to heal her completely and let her live and my prayers weren’t answered. It broke my heart she was my hero, she was everything I had. I was 3 months pregnant with my son Aaron Michael Morin and I knew then as I know now he was a blessing that came in to my life because of what was to come. It took years for me to accept the fact that life is about living and dying and that is something that will happen to all of us and at anytime so live for today, always let your loved ones know they are loved, don’t put off for tomorrow things that you can do today, make memories for your children that they can hold dear to their hearts for the rest of their life, don’t waste your time and energy caring for someone that isn’t going to care for you back, when horrible things happen don’t keep asking why because it doesn’t change the fact that it happened it just makes you bitter!!!
Sometimes
Sometimes I see you walking by. Sometimes I wanna say Hi. Sometimes I stop and stare, but you don’t even know I’m there. But it’s really okay, I like you anyway. Sometimes I try not to look into your eyes, because if I do you’ll know I like you. Sometimes I wanna smile, I try but I’m just too shy. By Myrna Morin ~Poem for my 9th grade crush.~ |
‘Cause of You
I think of you every day and all my sadness goes away. You make me smile not only for a while ’cause of you all my prayers came true. I’ll never be sad again because now I know where to begin. I made a brand-new start because now you’re in my heart. Every time I fall you pick me up again. You say stand tall you’ll give me another chance to begin. I know the road is long but to you I’ll keep holding on. I know you’ll keep me strong and keep me from doing wrong. Only if I stay with your word and everything that I’ve heard. By Myrna Morin~ I wrote this many many years ago in high school an entered it into Poem writing contest. |
Joy
Joy is a feeling inside. A feeling I just can’t hide. That’s why I’m writing this poem, while I’m sitting at home. Just to say, you brighten my day. By Myrna Morin ~Can’t remember when I wrote this one, just a poem. ~ |
Rene
Rene, I love you more each day. Sometimes I try not to breakdown and cry. In a few years, I’ll learn to hold back the tears. The tears I’ve cried wishing you were by my side. I just want you to know, that I love you so. I’ve called you on the phone but you haven’t been home. It’s really okay I love you anyway. I don’t know what to do my love is so true. I just don’t know how I can forget you now. But I pray that someday you’ll love me the same way. By Myrna Morin ~My very first poem ever, I made in 8th grade about my very first crush. I was a sappy girl back then!! ~ |
My Love for You
My love for you I say is true. My love for you will never end. My love for you I truly send. Deep inside my heart I asked for a brand-new start. To prove to you my love is true. I’ll wait patiently that some day my love you’ll see. I think God each day that I that I met Rene. I asked him to show you my love. I asked him to show you that you’re the one I think of. By Myrna Morin~I wrote this in 8th grade for my crush, I was a sappy girl at one time~ |
