I Have Never . . .

I have never jumped off a cliff
I have never understood why people turn their car stereo bass so low that it sets off car alarms and wake people up.
I have never called number a from a phone bill to see who it is. I use google and anywho.com, if it's not on there, its not worth my time.
I have been unemployed for the longest time in my life for at least the last 10 years or so.
When I say unemployed, I mean a steady paying job with heath insurance and so forth. I do have an unsteady job of house sitting. I also have a unsteady job making things for people, clothes, crafts, center pieces, cakes, alterations, candles, etc.
I have never truly been in love with someone. Thought I was once but I was wrong.
I have destroyed someone else's home
I have never had a Valentine
I have never been in a relationship during the holidays
I have never been in a relationship during my birthday (there birthday yes)
I have never smoked anything
I have never had children, been a mother
I have never been married
I have never been outside of the US
I have never received flowers from anyone who wasn't family
I have never riden a train (except for around the park)
I have never gone to the movies alone
I have never had a New Year's Kiss


I have never done many things and I will never do many things in my life. We can't do everything we want, we can't have everything we want. We have to learn to be happy with what we do have, with what we make of ourselves. Nothing more, nothing less.
