recover myself (read all 2 entries…)
back on the road to recovery again 2 years ago

i don’t have to recover as much now as i have in the past…if that makes any sense. i have a pretty good sense of who i am. i’m starting to realize that i need to recover ME, and be careful not to recover what i think is ME and is actually what other people want from me or expect of me and my relationships with other people.

i want to recover me so i’m stronger. i want to recover me so i’m easier on myself. i want to recover me so i’m better at understanding how i relate to other people.

see the goo goo dolls in concert
let love in 2 years ago

“let love in” is the goo goo dolls latest album. the title track is probably the best…my favorite lines from the song: “the end fear is where we begin, the moment we decide to let love in…there’s nothing we can do about the things we have to live without…the only way to feel again is let love in.”
