Twerk It?

So...Obviously Miley Cyrus has been a bit of a topic of conversation lately....

Ok, that's an understatement. There's been a lot of hoopla surrounding her, specifically her VMA performance.

So those of you who know me, my guilty pleasure is celebrity gossip/style, etc... I have trouble remembering the population of Wisconsin, my home state but for some reason I can still remember Justin Timberlake's birthday. (January 31st :)) I like to think that it's because I like learning about people, especially relationships. I am a counselor! That's what I care about for a living. So back on topic...Miley's over-sexual performance wasn't my favorite, but I don't feel like rioting and ranting over it.

But I do give her credit. While she was shocking the world with that performance, her relationship of 4 years was crumbling. And only a few DAYS after the break-up....


Miley has said that the relationship was heading down-hill, but that is usual of most relationships. They don't usually end in a day without anything leading up to it. And when you listen to her song "Wrecking Ball" you can hear and feel the pain! To be honest, I've been listening to this song on repeat. She's got a great voice, the song is very catchy and I'm attracted to anything that shows true emotion.



And I can relate. My old blog focused on the heart-ache I went through about a year and a half ago. I lost the person who I thought was the love of my life. I had moved my life across the world to be with him but nearly four years into the relationship, it was over. And it sucked the life out of me.This is an excerpt from my post "The Truth Hurts"...

"It’s no wonder he deflated under the
dark
heavy
cloud that was me.

He forgot who he was.
He forgot why he loved me.
And he remembered how things were better before me.

These thoughts have been coming forth in my mind but now, I finally release them. I admit them. He wasn’t perfect and he made mistakes, but he fell out of love with me.

How does that happen? I didn’t give him any reasons to stay in love with me." 

So even though this was long ago and I've moved on, it seems that with a snap of finger, I'm there again. The emotions of being hurt and alone are hard to forget. Even though I'm so happy now and in an amazing relationship, the words

"We clawed, we chained, our hearts in vain. We jumped, never asking why.We kissed, I fell under your spell...A love no one could deny. Don't you ever say I just walked away

I will always want you
I can't live a lie, running for my life
I will always want you...You wrecked me. "

Peace xx
