Life in Kansasgals head: 4 helmets, a bucket list on a fence = Family

Life in Kansasgals head: 4 helmets, a bucket list on a fence = Family

4 helmets, a bucket list on a fence = Family

Given away at birth
Into a family unkown
Given to those who cared
Loved and wanted

Given to those who knew nothing about the birth
Who gave too much attention to the baby
And pushed away as the baby grew to into the child

The child, was what she was called
Names changed as time went by
First baby Rooks
Then Cynthia Elaine Budde

Cynthia named for a soap opera ho who had many lovers
Elaine, for that intellectual one sounded too grown up for the child
Some how along the way the child became Cindy
Never knowing who she was and seldom did anyone care enough to find out

Walking home from school was always a thrill untl the boys caught up and made fun
And chanted about her being ugly or stupid
Or the girls walking by not even to say hello

Seldom was there a day to walk home chatting along the way happily with a friend who seemed to really care
Off they went moving a way, never got to know them very long

WAtching from the wall hung picture, watching the life moving on
Fun, laughter, beautiful colors of gift wrappings being unwrapped
All the others were enjoying as she was watching from the wall hung picture

Fast forward 40+ years,
Wandering thru the wilderness
Chosen paths with many branches

Tuesday was the day she was born
And Ruby is her stone
Rubes a name of endearment chosen

Watching life from the wall hung picture
Rubes has tried to fit in
More secluded and alone she becomes where perhaps
She actually might find who
She is

Why she is

Where she is

Thank you for going on the journey with her
So her life can become more than a wall hung picture
Watching life from afar
Wishing she was a part of the fun and laughter
To become a part of a FAMILY

2012

Another year gone, what do I have to show for it?
July 7 1952-
Jan 1-2012-



another year paid on my home, no improvements made because I cannot afford the cost of even little improvements. 2012- came from nothing- going out as nothing...

Another year gone, how far have I gone?

5 houses around the block and back.....
I have made 21 moves in my life time
I am 59 and feel as tho I have learned so little
in all of the experiences I have had

When I speak to councelors, they fall asleep
when I speak to friends from years back
they tell me they live vicariously thru me
when i speak to friends from today
they know little from the deep blue see......sea....
why is it my friends who seem to know me are on facebook....
where there is no physical intimination......
but plenty of emotional atraction......
but the one friend I love the most, says im such a drama queen....
and returns so little ....so little to hold on to.....

the one thing i have always wanted.....

and its the perverbial carrot dangling in front of my face
saying.....

your not good enough
your not pretty enough
your not thin enough
your not rich enough
your not funny enough
your not smart enough
your not cool enough
your not there enough
your not .....enough.....

your too emotional
your too fat
your too stupid
your too .....

ok get the picture.....

Amazing Grace how sweet tit is
to save a slut like me.....

OMG,
there are boys in my lawn....the grass is always greener on the other side....

I watched from a far, knowing he was a "boy"
my first notice of being different from all the other kids in school,
telling my mommy, "Oh yes I loved school,
i even got to meet a boy, and he is a BOY!!!"

I do not remember what my mommy's remark was
but from that day on, I knew my vision was to find
that love I had felt for the first time.... what did i feel?
I dont have a clue, but he loved me, and i loved him, and it was going to be for ever and ever.....

he noticed me, he treated me nice, he even gave me his mothers necklace in the 3rd grade for christmas.....
my mommy made me give it back saying it was most probably his mommy's....

I lost track of him after that, I moved to another town in the 7th grade
and I vaguely remember him being sent to a different school, he sent me a graduation invitation. I always wondered how he got my address because I know I never gave it to him, or anyone else, no one from my gradeschool asked for it.... I became lost- and un-remembered....

In 2010, I found him on Facebook....and he didnt remember me....never had a crush on me, never gave me a necklace....cuz he doesnt remember me.....more verification....im invisible, have never existed.....

one friend came to stay with me after moving to my new town
I took her on a double date, and the guy tried to take advantage of her all night long.....
she went home, I never heard from her again.....
I wrote her and told her I was sorry for his behavior, I had asked my boyfriend who was a Fr in college.....

What in the world was I doing dating guys from college when I was just a freshman in highschool!!!! meaning I MET THEM WHEN I WAS still an 8th grader!!!!!!

the boys in my jr high didnt notice me so, I took what came along...my cousins friends....he was like my big brother, the one I looked up to.... he was 4 years older than me....his friends were too...but he was my cousin....
the one who took me to the drive in movies with his friends....
then by myself.....
and the moves were made....
I said "no" your my cousin....I lost a friend that night....
a cousin, a brother....lost family.....

my first experience of sex getting in the way of a relationship.....

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@_->SEX<-_

Somewhere in my 12th year, my first kiss happened
he tasted like corn....yuck.....

I never saw him again after that Friday night which felt so right
but tasted so terrible......

I just want to be ok, I just want to know that my life will someday
be the one which was worth living.....


WHAT DO I HAVE TO LOOK BACK ON
which was worth the journey....
WHAT DO I HAVE TO LOOK FORWARD TO?
will my life be one which was worth living?
