TITLE: When You're In Love with a Beautiful Woman
Lyrics and Chords
[Capo 6]
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
It's hard
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
You know it's hard
It's hard, you know it gets so hard
Everybody wants her, everybody loves her
Everybody wants to take your baby home
/ G6 - - - / D - - - / : / Bm - - - / G D Em A /
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
You watch your friends
Watch your friends, you gotta watch your friends
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
It never ends
It never ends, you know it never ends
You know that it's crazy, you want to trust her
Then somebody hangs up when you answer the phone
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
You go it alone
Maybe it's just an ego problem
Problem is I've been fooled before
By fair weathered friends and faint hearted lovers
And every time it happens
It just convinces me more
/ C - G - / D - G A / G - D Bm - / Em G - - / A - - - /
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
You watch her eyes
Watch her eyes, baby, watch her eyes
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
You look for lies
Look for lies, baby, lookin' for lies
Everybody tempts her, everybody tells her
She's the most beautiful woman they know
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
You go it alone
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
You watch your friends
Watch your friends, you better watch your friends, you better look out
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
Oh, it never ends
It never ends, you know it never ends
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
You watch her eyes
Watch her eyes, baby, watch her eyes, you better watch her eyes
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
Keep lookin' for lies
Keep lookin' for lies, keep lookin' for lies
When you're in love with a beautiful woman...
The words to this song do not fit exactly to my mind or situation. First of all I wasn't super jealous. I simple trusted. So I didn't look for lies. And my friends, I didn't worry about them. But I was in love with a beautiful woman and most assuredly everyone wanted her. I didn't know when we started out that she was the most desirable catch here. We met and we both saw the spark. But in the end can any one man keep the most beautiful woman?
I post this because I heard this song on the radio today. It is a good song and it is good to reflect on. I'm not casting blame here. I accept the blame all myself. And I wish her well.

Formula for love?

I thought I had figured out the formula for finding love. I believed that the key was to find someone who was beautiful inside and out in my eyes and who saw the same in me from their eyes. On paper this sounds simple but in reality it is hard to find. Well there is nothing wrong with having to work to find true love. But as I think about it I know this formula is really too simple. There is much more to it. This formula is perhaps only good for finding love. It needs more to account for the challenges that life puts in front of us. So now I need to add or adjust this formula. Then again maybe I should just throw caution to the wind and forget formula's and find a way to just embrace love in whatever form it comes. I'm not talking about being desperate, I'm talking about just accepting and enjoying without expectations.

When I got up this morning I had a coffee on my deck and I watch a pair of geese flying. They decided to land on my lawn. I watched them walk around and eat my grass. Usually one eats and the other one watches for predators and then they switch roles. It seems to me every thing they do they do together for each other. Geese mate for life. It seems so easy when you watch them. Are they Just Silly Geese?

News Item.

A speeding train Crashed and sank trying to cross the Pacific Ocean. Details are sketchy at this time but it seems much to everyone's disbelief, a Filipino and a Canadian actually managed to get the train to a high enough speed to make it float on water. From all accounts it looked like the trip was going to be a success. Neither of the engineers reported and problems prior to the crash. Accident Investigators at this time can only speculate that the train may have run out of fuel as the scheduled trip was very long, or possibly one of the engineers made a turn while the other one slept, but they stressed they will wait until they have finished their investigation before releasing their findings. Authorities did indicate that no charges are being contemplated to either engineer. Debris can still be seen floating in the water but miracuously both engineers survived and were safely rescued. Both engineers received only minor injuries and are being treated in their respective home countries. It is not believed that this incident will cause any tensions between the engineers home countries as the crash occurred in international waters. This reporter wonders when Another train will float again?
To anyone who reads this I just felt like writing today. I think the news item is cute and funny. I hope you do too. And I truly hope everyone is glad that injuries were minor and that they wish a speedy recovery for both.

Evaluation.

In our every day lives we fall into a routine. We get up and brush our teeth and have our morning coffee almost like robots. Then we set off to accomplish our daily tasks, be it work or whatever. And again we will follow a normal routine. And so the whole day goes. So in all this routine when do we find time to stop and evaluate our self?
Everybody can improve and become a better person if they want. But first you need to look at yourself and see what needs improving. You need to evaluate. Most of us like our own self so it is hard to see or admit that we have a flaw or two that could use some fixing. And even if we do know some things that need improvement we tend to push them off to tomorrow so that we can stay focused on our safe and familiar, daily routines.
Well here I am. My routine has been rocked. So now is a good time to take stalk. To evaluate. To focus on improving. I hate failure and I'm not a good loser. So maybe with some more improvement I will be a winner next time.

This weekend I had set aside for getting ready for my Easter Monday flight to manila to spend 3 glorious weeks with my honey. I have been working too much trying to save extra money for the trip. But I figured that 3 weeks of bliss was more then worth it. And I so love seeing everyone's smiles when they receive the presents I bring. I try to put much thought into gifts so that nobody is left out and that they are all happy with what they get. So Saturday and Sunday I had reserved for shopping, buying Canadian chocolate and gifts for everyone.
But then I get THE Email. That one that you don't expect. That one that you check to see if it was sent to the you by mistake, hoping so hard that it was not meant for you. No such luck. It was meant for me. 4 days before my flight. Its the electronic age now so I guess breaking up via Email is customary. We chatted almost every night. If it were me breaking up I would do it in chat. But it was not me doing the breaking.
I was in shock! I think I am over the shock now, luckily I was able to delay my flight even though it was Easter weekend. The shopping was easy to cancel but that just left empty open time. And when you are shocked and crushed and hurting time is virtually your enemy.
And then finally I begin to find out what I did wrong. I will not tell it here now. In fact I will probably never tell it. I will remember it though and I will try to not make those mistakes again ever. But let me tell you the list is long. The things on the list by themselves are not insurmountable. But added up? WOW. ( I am not a cheater or abusive so they were not on the list).
Is accepting blame a step in the healing process? I hope so! Because I do accept all the blame. It was all my own fault.I made choices that I thought would benefit us, I really thought I was helping and doing good. I could easily lay blame on many things, but the reality is I made those choices. Oh how I do wish I could have seen this coming and had a chance to correct those choices. But in life we do not always get a second chance.

Feelings are accompanied with thoughts of meaning….
A heart is filled with strong cruel emotions floating….
A heart that is broken can be mend…
But once in disarray, a heart can die again…
Please do take care of my heart, I am nothing without it…
Please do mend the broken vows of trust and faith,
When a wish comes true like an early spring is met…
Keep it safe and love it dearly still…
And don’t let my heart question, when will…?

So many thoughts

I have so many thoughts running through my head that I have a headache. They are not bad thoughts, they are just thoughts about what to do, where to turn. I am trying to keep myself busy so I distract myself from these thoughts. It's not good to consume so much time on matters I don't control. I know I need to focus on what I can control. That would be much more productive.
I know I want to reach out and talk to someone about this but male friends don't want to listen and even if they did they would just say 'Get over it!'. Well I know I will but from every hurtful experience we can learn something good and the learning is easier with talking. Just keeping things bottled up in my head means a longer headache.
