Breaking Vases...

I have a problem with my temper. In frustrations, my outburst can be faster than any turbo-charge engine out there. Things I treasure, and yet when things don't go the way I want, I'll just turn off the lights. Time and again, consequences have cost me dearly.

Lying in bed and trying to sort things out in my head, I realise that I have been breaking too many vases. Its time I stop breaking. Its time I start picking up the pieces.

Just like this song which has been haunting me for the entire day, regardless of where I am. Is this a sign to get me to start picking up the pieces?

"Sometimes love just ain't enough"
Performed by: Patty Smyth (with Don Henley)
Written by: Patty Smyth and Glen Burtnik
Lyrics from here

I don't wanna lose you,
I don't wanna use you
just to have somebody by my side
And I don't wanna hate you
I don't wanna take you
But I don't wanna be the one to cry
That don't really matter to anyone, anymore
But like a fool I keep losing my place
And I keep seeing you walk through that door

But there's a danger in loving somebody too much
And it's sad when you know it's your heart you can't trust
There's a reason why people don't stay where they are
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough

Now I could never change you
I don't wanna blame you
Baby you don't have to take the fall
Yes I may have hurt you
But I did not desert you
Maybe I just wanna have it all

It makes a sound like thunder
It makes me feel like rain
And like a fool who will never see the truth
I keep thinking something's gonna change

[chorus]

And there's no way home
when it's late at night and you're all alone
Are there things that you wanted to say
Do you feel me beside you in your bed
there beside you where I used to lay


And there's a Danger in Loving somebody too much
And it's sad when you know it's your heart they can't touch.
There's a reason why people don't stay who they are
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough

Takes time to develop patience. But the fact that you're recognising it, it's a BIG step already. Good on ya! You can make amends when you're ready for it. You can do it. :)

Mezz: You are right, changing isn't all too difficult once you identify the issue. Its just that, the vase can never get back to its former shape.
