Thanks for thinking of me!
I must start by saying I have missed you all so very much!.....I would like to take the time to thank all of you who kept me in your thoughts and made sure you sent a message my way to let me know you were thinking of me!.....
I have been through an incredible amount of life changing events in the past year....A separation, custody battle, support battle, loosing my car, my house, a broken heart, ....and so on....
Now with all of that said, I am very grateful for all the experiences I have encountered.....Each and every one has made me a better person!.....I have yet again, learned many valuable lessons about life!.......
I may not have all the answers yet, but I do know this.....I have three beautiful children, and a heart of gold!......I make sure everyday I stop to smell the roses!....
Life is a journey, we may never know when it will end, or what it has in store for us, but its up to us to make the best of everyday!.....
My favorite lesson learned.....
"Life is simple! Its we who make it difficult!"
And for those of you who can't see that, aren't ready to face reality.....Reality sucks! Come to think of it, that must be why they say the truth hurts......
It was every time a friend pointed out something about myself, that even though I knew in my heart it was wrong, when they said it clear as day, it felt horrible not to mention disappointing!....I just thank God I was able to put that feeling of disappointment away, and make the change needed.......
At one point in time I went on medication, after a month of being on the medication I realized it was making me gain weight.....So I said to my friend...."I have to get off these meds, they are making me gain weight, and they are supposed to help me with depression! How on earth is is it going to help me, when the fatter I get, the more depressed I will become!"....
His said to me......
"You mean to tell me that you would take this gift of happiness and throw it away because you gained weight?"
I said, "yes, only because I would be more depressed if I gain any more weight!"
His answer
"life is simple Tiff, eat right, and exercises!"
I sat there for a minute and just shook my head and giggled under my breath.....
"Yup, how ironic, it is that simple! 
I just hope that from me sharing my experiences with my friends it just might help someone see how incredible life can be if we just make it simple and stop every once in a while to smell the roses!"
I may not have a brand new car anymore, but I'm blessed to have something with 4 wheels to get me from point A to B.
I may not have my house anymore, But I live in better place, and I finally feel like I'm home!
Heck, I never really owned the other House anyway, the bank did, so whats the difference!.... 
Thanks again to all of my friends who have supported me during this tough time!......Every piece of mail was greatly appreciated!.......You are all so very special!

Re: Thanks for thinking of me!
I'm so happy to hear that you have things under control again in your life. Yes happiness is elusive but worth the effort to pursue it. You have been missed and I'm looking forward to seeing you much more frequently now. You've been away much too long, welcome back to the family!

You have the important ones and that's what counts, the rest are basically just personal preference or reading to much into them
