HEY everyone, my name is Courtney! I am a Christian and every Sunday and Wednesday I attend church and I love it to death! here are some things about me
~ I got baptized a few years ago, and im trying to live a better life.
~ I work at Pony bird inc, which is a residential home for people who have profound mental and physical disabilities. its my life.
The residents at my work, are extraordinary.
~ My friends and family are my world.
~ I Am against drunk driving, my best friend was killed by a drunk driver
~ I love to laugh and smile and make others smile
~ I love all music, i listen to everything
~helping people is my specialty.
~ I want to die smiling then I can die doing what I love
~ i hate labels. im not a article of clothing. im just me.
~ love is staying up all night and talking on the phone, knowing that he'll never be yours~
~ I love animals they are my life
~ Im happy most of the time, you've only got one life to live, so live it the best way you can and make it a happy one.
~ tis better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all
~ nobody knows true pain until they have lost someone and know one knows true love until they have loved and lost
~ nobody fails they just give up trying
~I've recently lost my cousin in a tragic accident, and its so hard to let go of the past, i miss her more than words can describe, but my faith keeps me going, knowing that one day we will be together again..
Ive lost many friends, but i know ill see them again.
This is a tribute to a very special person her name is Marylou and on here its doureallyhaveaheart, she is so friendly and is so Beautiful her spirit shines through, shes so talented Check out her work, you wont regret it....Her words can cheer anyone up, Marylou this one is for you:You are friendly, kind and caring
Sensitive, loyal and understanding
Humorous, fun, secure and true
Always there... yes that's you
Special, accepting, exciting and wise
Truthful and helpful, with honest eyes
Confiding, forgiving, cheerful and bright
Yes that's you... not one bit of spite
You're one of a kind, different from others
Generous, charming, but not one that smothers
Optimistic, thoughtful, happy and game
But not just another... in the long chain.
Appreciative, warm and precious like gold
Our friendship won't tarnish or ever grow old
You'll always be there, I know that is true
I'll always be here... always for you.
heres my favorite poem when tomorrow starts without me
when tomorrow starts without me
And I'm not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
All filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry
The way you did today,
While thinking of the many things,
We didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you,
And each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too;
But when tomorrow starts without me,
Please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name,
And took me by the hand,
And said my place was ready,
In heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind
All those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away,
A tear fell from my eye
For all my life, I'd always thought,
I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for,
So much left yet to do,
It almost seemed impossible
That I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays,
The good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the love we shared,
And all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday,
Just even for a while,
I'd say good-bye and kiss you
And maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized,
That this could never be,
For emptiness and memories,
Would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things,
I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did,
My heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me,
From His great golden throne,
He said, "This is eternity,
And all I've promised you.
Today your life on earth is past,
But here life starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow,
But today will always last,
And since each day's the same way
There's no longing for the past.
You have been so faithful,
So trusting and so true.
Though there were times you did some things
You knew you shouldn't do.
But you have been forgiven
And now at last you're free.
So won't you come and take my hand
And share my life with me?"
So when tomorrow starts without me,
Don't think we're far apart,
For every time you think of me,
I'm right here, in your heart.

doureallyhaveaheart on December 29, 2005My dear child, that is fine if you like to promote it. If you did I haven't got any replies back from it so I guess u must be the only one who really loves it... it must be u and me that understands it...
I do hope u are doing better.

doureallyhaveaheart on December 25, 2005My Dear child,
Sweet now the tears just flow I don't know what to say I feel so honored blessed. I feel like I have a little girl back a granddaughter or don't know for sure. I can say between u and Becky, I should never be lonely, at least not in spirit.
I just need to stop the rain, though the tears are washing the pain from my spirit from my soul.
It is healing, what u write makes me heal a little more each day when i read it... thank you for making me take a closer look at my life, you are a blessing, a angel sent from heaven.
~marylou~
