RFW Forgiven!
She opened up the book and looked at there old pictures. She remembered the way he would caress her cheek. She knew he was a liar and a cheater. A jerk who only cared about himself. All he cared about was drinking and hanging out with his friends. She always felt like she came in second best to him.
One night he came over and told her how sorry he was. She took him back once again and fell into his strong arms. She loved the way he smelled. The way he held her. She felt safe when she was in his arms. When she was alone she felt so depressed. She knew that he was no good for her but she loved him since she was 15 years old. he was her first love.
They say that your first love is the strongest love you ever have for someone. She never thought she could ever love anyone else like she loves him.
Even though he would make her cry and all the lies he blatantly told her like she was a fool. Many times she felt like she was a fool for once again trusting him only to be let down time and time again.
Then one day she met someone else. He had been her friend for years. They had grown closer over the years and he didn't like the way she was being treated. He finally let his guard down and told her how he felt about her. She always had a crush on him because he was adorable and charming. In many ways he reminded her of her love. But, secretly she knew she was falling in love with him too.
She said she would give him a chance to prove his love for her and to be her knight in shining armor. He swept her off her feet and she was head over heels in love with him. She finally had the courage to leave the guy that had always mistreated her with his words and actions. She felt free for the first time in a long time. In this freedom she learned forgiveness. She no longer held onto the hardness that was in her heart for so long. All the tears had made her jaded and she finally knew she could let it go. Forgive and remember only the happy times but not ever go back to him. To make a new life with her knight.

Posterous is growing on me
I gave posterous another chance. I have to say I'm loving the feature to post to multiple sites at one time. This way all my social networks and blog can be updated at one time. I have to say this is a really neat feature.
It will make posting so much easier not having to go to tons of different sites to post things. Plus, I added the share button on my bookmark so if I find something I like I can easily share it on my blog and social networking sites.
You can have multiple accounts on one e-mail and that is a feature I love. Plus, you can import which is a feature tumblr does not have that I wish it did. In that area it's far behind.
So I say give posterous a try. You don't have to abandon your other blog or social networking sites it might just make things a little easier.
What we like and Don't like about posterous
So I just tried posterous. I heard it was all the rage for being a new blogging site so I thought I would give it a go. First I'll start with what I like about it:
You can connect to any blog and social network so that everything gets updated at once. Other blogging sites are not quite up to date on this feature. You can post your blogspot posts through networked blogs on facebook. You can post to twitter and facebook through wordpress. You can post to twitter and facebook through tumblr. But, not other sites. Sometimes I wish wordpress had a thing so I could automatically update tumblr.
It would be nice if you could automatically update everything from blogger too. Without having to go to networked blogs to do so.
You can post to posterous through e-mail so that is great for on the go people who usually use there phone to post to there blog. I would rather do it manually to be honest and I don't have a high tech phone I can really do that with anyway. It's a pain to use the web on my phone so most of the time I don't even bother to go on it or use e-mail on my phone.
I also like the import feature so you can import from just about any site. Have a blogger, wordpress, or tumblr and want to import from there you can. Tumblr still does not have the import feature although you can link to your RSS feed but if you have to delete your domain for some reason you can't import it to another tumblr site. That's a feature I like about blogger and wordpress and posterous.
What I don't like about it is that first of all it seems to take forever to load.
There are not many theme options to choose from although I'm sure they will get more choices in the future.
You can't add Java script the same as with wordpress. I know on wordpress you can get it if you pay for hosting.
That's where blogger and tumblr are nice because you can add javascript and don't have to pay anything to do so.
You can also have a private blog. I'm not sure if this means it is totally private or only private except for the people you choose who can view it. Almost all the sites have some sort of privacy feature now.
I won't give up on posterous but I did for today since it took forever to load. I'm not a patient person. Maybe when I have more time to wait around for it to load then I can look around some more.

Happy 4th!
Today is graphic designs by tara blog hop. I just entered.
Happy 4th of July everyone. I am spending the day at home relaxing.
I remember when my godfather was alive and we would be outside with the sparklers and he would light the firecrackers. I remember one time when he used a cherry bomb. I don't recommend doing that by the way. They are way more powerful then people think.
All the alarms in the neighborhood went off. It was kind of scary actually.
Have a great Holiday!

What we like and Don't like about Tumblr
I decided to write this post because I've been using tumblr for a while now. When thinking about what sites I would use professionally and which ones I would use for fun.
I like tumblr because:
1. They have nice layouts
2. you can follow people with one click on the follow button
3. You can reblog posts you like and heart posts you like
4. They have really cool pictures
5. You can password protect a blog
What I dislike about tumblr:
1. Hard to follow with no tumblr account
2. Hard to comment unless person adds Disqus
3. They don't have an option to get your own domain you have to set it up through another site
4. Better for micro blogging meaning twitter type posts and pictures
5. You can't delete a blog individually you have to delete you whole account
Overall I like tumblr for writing twitter type posts and pictures.
It's not good for writing long posts or if you want to make money from blogging.
