"Every now and then, soft as breath upon my skin, i feel you coming back again...... and I believe." --- when I am missing a loved one.
The name of the song is I Believe sung by Diamond Rio

I wonder sometimes how I have affected the lives of others..

"Back then could you see what our future would be? I wonder do you think of me? I still love you do you think of me?" --Keith Whitley

That song I have put words from in so many passages. Usually when I get to thinking of two people. Two in general. Him and James. Yeah well the love changed. Levels of it anyways. I still love them. Im just not in love. He was special and came along at a crucial point in my life. He was a friend to lean on and a heart to hold. Life wasnt always pretty but it was comforting to have him. Anyone that reads my blog or has for a while knows James. He was and always will be special. Its not everyday that a girl loves so freely then it is gone in the blink of an eye. Due to hot tempers and lack of understanding. Mainly on my own part.
Yet tonight the song is playing in my house and I am thinking of some thing all together different. Life is so much happier for me than it has been in so long. I am sitting here thinking of people I love and miss. I am wondering sometimes if they ever sit and wonder where I am and what happend to me. I wonder if I left a mark on anyones heart to the point that they say to themselves "I still love you, do you think of me?"
Just a thought but it is what I thought tonight...
