Ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.
~Kahlil Gibran

I may regret the way we ended, but I will never regret what we had.
~Unknown

Sometimes I wish I had never met you because then I could go to bed at night not knowing there was someone like you out there.
~Unknown

It's hard to tell your mind to stop loving someone, when you're heart still does.
~Unknown

Once upon a time I was falling in love, but now I'm only falling apart.
~Unknown

A moment for quotes...Because they help make the world go round!

The saddest love is to love someone, to know that they still want you, but the circumstances don’t let you have them. ~Unknown

Men always want to be a woman’s first love. Women have a more subtle instinct: What they like is to be a man’s last romance.
~Oscar Wilde

The hardest part of dreaming about someone you love is having to wake up. ~Unknown

They say that time heals all wounds but all it’s done so far is give me more time to think about how much I miss you. ~Unknown

Death can not stop true love, it can only delay it for a little while. ~The Princess Bride

Falling in love is awfully simple, but falling out of love is simply awful. ~Unknown

When I see you smile and know that it is not for me, that is when I will miss you the most. ~Unknown

How do you say goodbye to someone who had you at hello? ~Unknown

There's one sad truth in life I've found
While journeying east and west -
The only folks we really wound
Are those we love the best.
We flatter those we scarcely know,
We please the fleeting guest,
And deal full many a thoughtless blow
To those who love us best.
~Ella Wheeler Wilcox



We'll meet again,
Don't know where,
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day
Keep smiling through,
Just like you always do
Till the blue skies drive the dark clouds far away

So will you please say "Hello"
To the folks that I know
Tell them I won't be long
They'll be happy to know
That as you saw me go
I was singing this song

We'll meet again,
Don't know where,
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day

We'll meet again,
Don't know where
Don't know when.
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day.
Keep smiling through
Just like you always do,
'Til the blue skies
Drive the dark clouds far away
So will you please say"Hello"
To the folks that I know.
Tell them I won't be long.
They'll be happy to know
That as you saw me go,
I was singin' this song.

We'll meet again,
Don't know where,
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day
~We'll Meet Again (Vera Lynn - 1930s)

I really wanted to write something wise and philosophical for my first journal of the New Year, but I couldn't really think of anything, so I guess I'll just say this...

...POP!... ^)________________(^

Have a Happy New Year, folks!

~Clio

Have you ever noticed just how predictable Greek Mythology is? I mean, come on! There's rape/sex followed by retribution (usually in the form of Hera getting POed at somebody-not Zeus, like she should, mind!) followed by someone ending up either dead, almost dead, or wishing they were dead! Mythology is nothing if not predictable...

I feel like being random today, so I'll just follow along in that same vein, just for the heck of it! I don't like the cold...In fact, I really despise it -__- It makes your nose run, your fingers burn, and your thoart sore. It also ends up making you wonder if you still have ears or if they might have fallen off somewhere without you noticing...Sigh...Why do I have to live somewhere that gets this idiotically cold?!?

I love pie...Pie is good...Especially apple pie...or rhubarb...yeah...rhubarb's good...*is wanting pie right now...and it's almost one in the morning...-__-* Wish I had a slice of pie and tall glass of cold milk right now...Then again I also wish I had a fireplace and a good book (and the time to actually read it!)

Sorry about my randomness today...I just didn't feel like thinking too deeply. Hopefully, I get over this need to be random very soon. It's funny, but being random is rather exhausting. You wouldn't think so, would you? Wrong! It's one of the most tiring things you can imagine!

**One thing that I HAVE been working on recently (as you could probably tell from the newer pictures in my gallery) is signatures and avatars...I've been practicing my blending. They aren't very complicated yet, but I'm working on it! If you have any requests, I'll see what I can do! Just let me know! ^)___(^

It's almost the New Year already! I wonder where the year went...Somewhere else I suppose ^)__(^

Anyway! I have quite a few new pictures up. Vampire Knight has recently grabbed me and has since refused to let go ; I can only hope that this doesn't last for too long...Sigh...Then again, it’s me, so it could very well never end.

I’ve been thinking about asking people for ideas for my pictures. Every blue moon or so, I come up with a really good idea! Then I have to try and get by on the mediocre ones until the next lunar phenomenon ( ) Not sure how I’m going to go about asking for ideas yet...Perhaps I’ll make it a commission deal...I haven’t decided yet.

I’ve also been thinking about working more on my fanfiction. I haven’t been very good about keeping up with them, and I’m almost afraid to go to FanFiction.Net for fear of someone demanding new chapters! I suppose that I should just go back and re-read what I’ve already written in the hopes that new inspiration will fall down from the heavens...On the other hand, that might hurt...Maybe I’ll take a helmet with me...

I’ve never really done much with New Years Resolutions...I used to, but then I forgot about them, so it just seemed like a waste of time to me... I started thinking about that awhile ago, and I realized something. This is true for me, I know, and possibly for some others of you out there... Back when I made resolutions, I never kept them, and that just made me feel like I would never be able to accomplish anything...I realized that different people handle certain situations in different ways. I consider myself a pretty creative person, and I tend to handle things in one of two ways: creatively or not at all. The latter tended to happen when I felt as though I’d failed at whatever it was I was attempting to do. So personally, I’m all for creative ways of dealing with issues ^.^ I’m rather nutty though, so that tends to work for me!

I didn’t mean to preach, just wanted to express something that I’d found rather interesting. That and to say that if someone asks you what your New Year Resolutions are, don’t feel bad if you say that you don’t have any...I don’t, and it hasn’t hurt me ^)__(^
