Winter Blahs

Do they say that January is the cruelest month? If not they should...
I swear I feel as blue as the background on this page!

I had a really tough realization this morning in the bathroom... no matter how good, how generous, how considerate, how smart I am, I'm still going to make mistakes that are heart-wrenching. That I'm still going to disappoint the people I love, even though it's the last thing on earth I want or mean to do...

How on earth does that happen? Why do we make the same mistakes over and over again? Why is it so difficult to learn a lesson the first time? Or second? Or third?

It's a hard thing to acknowledge. One hopes to get wiser as one ages. Sometimes I feel like I'm more confused than ever!

February and hearts and flowers and love can't come to soon!
