I Am Alive Therefore I am Fierce. And Bangin. And completely, utterly GANGSTA.
Thursday, February 18, 2010 at 2:22AM It's that time again, Dear Blog Readers. Anyone still with me at this point will likely ponder why I have changed my blog. Again.
I've passed another season in the life and times of G. Valentine.
It's amazing to look back over my life and see how much I've learned and how much I've grown as a person, as a wife, as a mother.
It's time to turn a new leaf. All the essentials are still here for you to view if you wish.
I've pondered the universe. We are but a speck in this grand scheme. I can't know much, but I do know life is amazing. I want to live it to a new fullness and leave negativity behind me. Blah.
Thank you for following me on this journey of self discovery. Blogging has been a way to help me quickly discover myself after years of self destructive numbness. I now watch sad movies and actually cry. I NEVER used to do that. It's a beautiful thing, emotion.
Love,
Gabby

I love this haunting song about growing up faster than you should have had to.

I love the new look -- and the beautiful picture of you!
Emotion is a beautiful thing. After medicating myself into numbness with antidepressants (and Diet Coke and good food) I remember being so excited the first time I cried after adjusting down my meds. Life is hard, but life is good. I don't think I've really lived if I haven't cried or laughed about it everyday.
I'm still here with you and think you have evolved into something even better than you were before. That is a fantastic picture by the way! You are beautiful <3
Love the new layout and your footer is hysterical.
Lu-uv the new look. Beaucoup. But that IS my fave shade of green, and I love lots of white space, so, predictable.
Life is all lessons. If we fail to evolve, we will surely suffer stagnancy. :-)
Aw, thank you everyone! I love playing around with blog colors and I'll probably switch it up again. I'm looking for a fun background for the sides but haven't found what I'm looking for yet. Yes, I am changing and learning and growing and not so numb as I used to be. It's taken years though. Wow. Undoing so much damage. I hope I don't damage my kids. I wish I could go back and read the parenting manuals knowing what I do now and then have my kids over again.
