Well Hello world!
My name is Cris. I am a soon to be 30 year old female: on a strange yet fascinating journey. So here’s the deal… I’ve always wanted to write, but it doesn’t pay the bills. At least not for me. So, this will be my private space to write what I want about my observations on life, love, dating, and personal moments. Some can read for fun, take advice from my own life lessons, or to tell me your own thoughts.
I am completely blunt, straight-forward, and honest. Some might find the way I write a little offensive and some might get a kick out of it. I’m lucky if anyone even reads what I write! If I am not honest and brutal then I am never going to get my thoughts out. I am an over-analyzing, spiritual, fun, and witty person who will hopefully make you want to read more.
I will most likely over-share on the details of my life, but that’s entertainment for some. So read my blog if you want to follow my story 🙂

First of all, thank you for follwoing my blog. I just checked out yours. While reading your “about” page I found a very impressive similariteis… although I am not a young girl anymore life surprises me over and over and shows me that I know so little about it…. which is wonderful. Because there is so much new to discover. I love to follow you back to see lots of your discoveries.

I wish you the absolute best.
In my own ways, I am starting over as well, though I do not have to do so on the dating/love front, fortunately…but in most other relationships, well it is rare for a relationship to be both robust enough to withstand the storms of life and delicate enough not to crush our souls.
Occasionally, I am able to capture these things in my poetry. If they could ever be of comfort to you I would be so honored…deepest blessings to you and may you always find the courage to be honest with yourself and the wholeness that is honesty’s sister.

Hello, darling Cris….I think your story is fascinating…not because it’s different or singular and unlike anyone else’s but because everyone identifies with you. You and me sister are in the same boat when it comes to life, love and dating and thanks for the like on my song “Kind Of A Wonder” 😉 Music is how I explore the world and I enjoyed how you share your world through writing. Hope you find more to like from my page. I’ll be following your story 😉 Much love for one girl to another, Annabel

being a father and a grandfather and going thru a similar situation where I had a daughter outside of my marriage and trying to be with her as much as possible as she was growing up and being a father , but not being able to be a dad as it should be and having to keep it a secret from my own family members and my wife for nearly thirty years and then breaking down and admitting it to all family members, I found peace within myself for admitting and apologizing to everyone and asking for forgiveness.
the point I am trying to bring up is that you have to forgive yourself before you can be forgiven by your child as I had learned. don’t beat yourself up but just move on and do everything that you can possibly do to be better and it will show and you will see it in your sons face and feel it from his heart. LOVE,FAITH,HOPE

this poem is for you and your son
A Parents Love
If you’re not a parent then you don’t know
The aches and pains that do not show.
When we see our child sick in bed
And so many thoughts go through your head.
When your child is in the hospital with 103
And by their side is where you want to be.
Recalling the first time that they ride a bike
And they fall and scrape their knee
And it seems they cry endlessly.
When you play with their imaginary friends
And it seems like it will never end.
then they go to pre-k
and for hours They have to stay.
Then they go to kindergarten and they
Meet children their same age
And it becomes fun and games.
Soon they’re out of elementary
And go to junior high
And then the aches and pains
Really begin to fly.
They already experienced their
First kiss, and possibly a sexual
Affair, and with you they will not share.
Soon it’s high school and college to follow
And you don’t see them for quite a while.
Then you get a call that they’re engaged
And you know your life has changed.
Then comes a marriage and a family
And a grandparent you will be.
But as a parent our love will never
Grow old, and this is something
That you are now told.
We are your parents and we will
Always be, we’ll love you now
And thru eternity.

here is one more for you and your son
Mother s Love
I am but a mere child clinging to my mother s breast
Sucking out the love she has inside, as it makes me
Dizzy as if I am high.
The warmth and nourishment that it gives
Gets me stronger – with the strength to live.
Mother! Your love can’t be denied, it is something you cannot hide.
And you may not be around to see me grow
But in your heart you will know.
Whether it be distance or death that keeps us apart
You will always have me in your heart.
You nurtured and tutored me to know right from wrong
And showed me how to become unselfish and strong.
You showed me how a mother s gentle heart can be
And from indignations and chains you set me free.
We was born free – no leg irons or shackles to be found
Even the umbilical cord was thrown to the ground.
We as children are born free as eagles up in the sky
We could soar and we could climb.
All of this has been given to me, because you and GOD set me free.
GOD gave us a brain for us to use, and a heart with which to choose.
But the most important thing he gave to me
Was a mother “who loved me “.
