It’s funny how often you stumble upon a song that speaks to your soul…this one speaks to mine

Ron Pope-A Drop in the Ocean

A drop in the ocean,
A change in the weather,
I was praying that you and me might end up together.
It’s like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert,
But I’m holding you closer than most,
‘Cause you are my heaven.

I don’t wanna waste the weekend,
If you don’t love me, pretend
A few more hours, then it’s time to go.
And as my train rolls down the East coast,
I wonder how you keep warm.
It’s too late to cry, too broken to move on.

Still I can’t let you be,
Most nights I hardly sleep.
Don’t take what you don’t need, from me.

Just a drop in the ocean,
A change in the weather,
I was praying that you and me might end up together.
It’s like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert,
But I’m holding you closer than most,
‘Cause you are my heaven.

Misplaced trust and old friends,
Never counting the regrets,
By the grace of God, I do not rest at all.
and New England as the leaves change;
The last excuse that I’ll claim,
I was a boy who loved a woman like a little girl.

Still I can’t let you be,
Most nights I hardly sleep,
Don’t take what you don’t need, from me.

A drop in the ocean,
A change in the weather,
I was praying that you and me might end up together.
It’s like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert,
But I’m holding you closer than most,
‘Cause you are my

Heaven doesn’t seem far away anymore no, no
Heaven doesn’t seem far away.
Heaven doesn’t seem far away anymore no, no
Heaven doesn’t seem far away.

aooo
aooo

It’s just a drop in the ocean,
A change in the weather,
I was praying that you and me might end up together.
It’s like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert,
But I’m holding you closer than most,
‘Cause you are my heaven.
You are my heaven

A little dose of the Cuban writer in me…

Just Another Love Poem

El amor no se olvida en una hora, ni un día.
Las memorias no se borran en una semana, ni un año.
Los sentimientos no pierden valor al pasado de un siglo.
El amor, cuando es amor real, dura una eternidad.

Y aunque mis sentimientos siempre me dejan siega,
no puedo pasar un segundo mas sin estar cerca de ti.
No paso un minuto sin pensar en ti.
No vivo una hora sin extrañar te,
ni un día sin amarte.

Hoy quiero decirte que lo siento.
Quiero decirte que todavía te amo,
que pienso en ti cada día que pasa.
Quiero decirte lo todo,
pero se que no puedo.
Porque, después de todo,
esas palabras me saben a mentiras.

Not letting go, would be living a lie

Although lately I’ve been going through so much bullshit that I really shouldn’t be dealing with, even with all my recent drama, letting you go has been the most difficult thing I have EVER had to deal with and I’m done pretending to be okay. I’m tired of acting like such a hard ass about the whole thing when in reality I’m really just another brokenhearted girl with her head in the clouds. The fact is that I’m still not over you and I may never truly be over you, but one thing’s for sure-I’m tired of holding on to something that died a long time ago.

So I’m letting it go, all of it. Cutting all and any ties to the life I once had and fully embracing the new life I have now. They say that there’s a reason the people in your past didn’t make it to your future and the best thing you can do to keep walking and never look back. Easy to say-yes. Easy to do-not so much. But at least I’m brave enough to try and that, well that stands for something whether you believe it or not.

So here I go, feet in and head first.

New Role-New Chapter

Eight months of busting my ass to prove myself worthy of becoming a permanent fixture at the infamous NDN finally paid off. I became an official member of the gang as of Monday morning. So why does it still feel like something is missing?

I feel like I’m in one of hose transitional periods in life when you’re going through huge changes, but they’re happening very slowly. This new job is a huge deal for me and I am beyond words excited to finally be in a position where I can really show the world what I can do, but it’s still a little unnerving to finally have something you’ve worked so hard for. On the end, I’m moving once again. The difference is that this time, for the first time, I’m moving into a place completely on my own. No parents, no siblings and no definitely no boyfriends.

Am I excited about moving out alone? Well yeah, but I’m more excited about the independent new Jenny part much more than the looking for a new place and physically moving part. Those parts-not so fun. Not to mention that this is like the fourth time I’ve moved in the past year and a half. Let’s just say, it’s been an interesting few years.

Describing my like in one word right now – CHANGE. Not like change is a new thing for me, but I’m trying to make the changes in my life more meaningful lately. A very important step in doing that is taking control of MY life. I decided a while ago, September of 2009 to be exact, that I was going to stop putting myself in situations that gave other people the power to drastically change my circumstances. Maybe I had an epiphany, maybe I finally grew up or maybe somebody finally gave me a wake-up call. Call it what you want. All I know is that I went from finally feeling like I belonged to crying on the curb at LAX, in the midst of an emotional breakdown, with no idea how the hell I got there. Right then, that moment changed me forever.

So now, I embark on yet another new chapter in my life. One where I hope to explore, learn and love-every chance I get. And without fear or restrictions. From now on, it’s what I want and when I want. Hmm why do I feel like I’ve said this before? Oh yeah, this was my New Year’s resolution for 2011. Well, it’s better late than never.
