This Friday I am participating in Relay for Life in honor of my nephew ETHAN. In case you didn't know, he was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 4 and after fighting for 2 years it won. Relay for Life is an amazing advocate for raising not only money for cancer but also awareness of it. In order to participate I have to raise at least $100. Please help me in this cause as much as you can. Ethan's example of bravery changed my life forever and my life has never nor will it ever be the same. Ethan loved life, he loved his family, and he taught me how to live, how to be brave, and how to fearlessly love those around you. PLEASE HELP, it really would mean a lot to me, but more importantly it means a lot to the next person who is diagnosed with cancer. SAVE LIVES!
How to donate: if you're my friend on facebook there is a "button" on my profile page that can lead you to my page for Relay for Life where you can donate really easily using a credit card. You can put your donation in honor of anyone you might have lost to this awful disease.
If not, here's a link to my page where you can donate:

running
I run.
Not always, but when faced with something I can't handle, I run from it.
If I don't know how to react, I run. If I can't run, I hide.
I ran last October. And I'm running now.
I'm going to Houston. I'm running to my dear sister, Elizabeth, who has been through more than I can ever imagine.
I still love him. I want him back in my life. I miss him every hour of every day. Maybe more than that. I keep going to my phone to text him, or send him a photo of something, then I remind myself I can't. I look at the clock and wonder what he's doing. If he's missing me.
I see him everywhere. He's been such a part of my life, everything screams his name. Except not really screams, just whispers constantly, so it's almost like screaming.
I don't want to get over him. I want him to come back. Which is why I'm running.

Breakeven
I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing,
Just prayed to a god that I don't believe in,
'Coz I got time while she got freedom,
'Coz when a heart breaks
no it don't break even.
Her best days will be some of my worst,
She finally met a man that's gonna put her first,
While I'm wide awake, she's no trouble sleeping,
'Coz when a heart breaks
no it don't break even, even no.
What am I supposed to do when the best part of me was always you
What am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up and you're ok
I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces
They say bad things happen for a reason
But no wise words gonna stop the bleeding
'Coz she's moved on while I'm still grieving
And when a heart breaks
no it don't break even, even no.
What am I gonna do when the best part of me was always you
What am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up and you're ok
I'm falling to pieces, yeah
I'm falling to pieces, yeah
I'm falling to pieces
(One still in love
while the other one's leaving)
I'm falling to pieces,
(Cuz when a heart breaks
no it don't break even)
You got his heart and my heart and none of the pain,
You took your suitcase, I took the blame.
Now I'm tryna make sense of what little remains, oh.
'Coz you left me with no love, with no love to my name.
I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing,
Just prayed to a god that I don't believe in,
'Coz I got time while she got freedom,
'Coz when a heart breaks
no it don't break, no it don't
break, no it don't break even no.
What am I gonna do when the best part of me was always you
What am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up and you're ok
I'm falling to pieces, yeah
I'm falling to pieces, yeah
I'm falling to pieces,
(One still in love

I'm falling to pieces,
(Cuz when a heart breaks
no it don't break even)
Oh, it don't break even, no
Oh, it don't break even, no
Oh, It don't break even, no
//As sweet as my joy was, that is how bitter my misery is. I hope he's happy. Maybe.
