Girlfriends

So today I've been asked to be maid of honour at my gf's upcoming wedding.

To date, I have been MOH twice and BM 3 times.

I still have 3 close gfs and a sister who aren't even married yet.

I wonder if I'll break the 10 mark in this lifetime?

All I know is that good, true friends are very hard to come by.  I'm glad that at least I'm in the upper echelon in some of my friend's lives.

If I ever get hitched, it'll be hard to hand pick the few who have made an impact in my life.  Some have been there since day one, have moved on with life fairly quickly and only have time every now and then to reconnect ... but never fail to skip a beat.  Others I have known for only a couple of years but there are dozens of great memories to share.  Still others know the deepest secrets and despite it all, love me for me.

Thank god for angels

How Did You Know?

I remember so well
The day that you came into my life
You asked for my name
You had the most beautiful smile

My life started to change
I'd wake up each day feeling alright
With you right by my side
Makes me feel things will work out just fine

CHORUS

How did you know
I needed someone like you in my life
That there's an empty space in my heart
You came at the right time in my life

I'll never forget
How you brought the sun to shine in my life
And took all the worries and fears that I had
I guess what I'm really trying to say
It's not everyday that someone like you comes my way
No words can express how much I love you 

- Aiza Seguerra

I stumbled upon this song by accident but it's fantastic :)

... Cuz I know how it hurts

When you lose the one you wanted

Cuz he's taken you for granted

And everything you had got destroyed ...
