Well it’s no secret that I’m a Princess so, what better way to celebrate the first day of my birth month than with a castle cake 🙂

Here’s some special things I discovered about my special month…

• National Blueberry Month~this must be the reason I love blueberries soooo much!!!

• National Anti-Boredom Month~hence all the FUN in the sun!!!

• National Cell Phone Courtesy Month~ummm does that mean I can’t use my cell phone while in the presence of others?!?  What about CANDY CRUSH???

• National Ice Cream Month~bring the butter pecan, mint chocolate chip, and red velvet!!!  Ooh and don’t forget the lactaid..LMBO

You say you love me but, it can’t be true because every time I see you all we talk about is you.

You say you miss me but, that can’t be a fact since each time we’re together, you run to get back.

If this is love, show me hate because this love must be fake.

You say you hate them but, I can’t see how because they are  first and those you love are left out.

You say they cause you pain but, I’m not so sure since you dance with them in the rain.

If this is hate, show me love because I’m confused up above.

In your heart, the truth will be revealed.

Which will you choose, time won’t stand still.

Matthew 6:24

24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

I don’t miss the memories we made, I don’t miss the smile on your face.

It’s no special time or place, these feelings fill my space.

The fact is, I miss us.

I miss what we could have been, I miss my best friend.

The truth is we can’t determine our fate and love has no expiration date.

I remember us…

I looked everywhere but still could not find. I’ve searched the world over, wondering if it was all in my mind.

I sat on a bench and waited patiently. I knelt by my bed and prayed for what could be.

The one constant thing is that you have my heart.  The sad part about it is I don’t know where to start.

I’ve heard of all the things you do.  When I find you, I will see if it’s true.

When I wasn’t looking, it is then you crossed my path. You made me smile again, taught me how to laugh.

Now that I know you are out there, I’m really curious. I want to know all about you, make it just the two of us.

Many women compare their mates to Romeo, the character in Shakespere’s “Romeo and Juliet”.  Some women think they can find the perfect man.  After  reading “Romeo and Juliet”, some women thought Romeo represented this perfect man.  These creative thinkers compared their mates to Romeo and if their mates did not qualify by the standards set forth by Romeo, he was not considered a good mate.  In reality, Romeo was just a good mate for Juliet.

The character Romeo was an example of a man during Elizabethan Times, he is not supposed to be a model for ALL men.  Women have often made the statement, “He was not my Romeo”.  By saying this, those women may have given up on a good man just because he did not behave in the same manner as Romeo.  Things were very different in Romeo’s time and all women DO NOT behave the same way Juliet did.  While these women are comparing their mates to Romeo, he could justifiably say, “she is not my Juliet’.

Every relationship will not be a “match made in heaven”.  The end goal should be to find the  “perfect complement to your imperfections” and this person most likely will not be like Romeo.  Everyone is different and even though Romeo was very charming, he was only meant to be with Juliet.  Be the partner your mate needs you to be, STAND by YOUR man.
