Don't tell me. You mean, Diana Ross and the Supremes were lying to me when she made me fall in love with her with:

 

(b. holland/l. dozier/e. holland, jr.)

 

Although youre never near

Youre voice I often hear

Another day, another night

I long to hold you tight

cause Im so lonely

Yes, Im lonely

Yes, my heart beats for you only

 

Baby, I need your loving

Got to have all your loving

Baby, I need your loving

Got to have all your loving

 

Some say its a sign of weakness

For a girl to beg

Then weak Id rather be

If it means having you to keep

cause lately I been losing sleep

 

Baby, I need your loving

Got to have all your loving

Baby, I need your loving

Got to have all your loving

 

Empty nights echo your name

Sometimes I wonder will I ever be the same?

Oh yeah!

When you see me smile

You know things has gotten worse

Any smile you might see

Has all been rehearsed

 

Darling, I cant go on without you

This emptiness wont let me live without you

This loneliness inside me, darling

Makes me feel half alive

 

Baby, I need your loving

Got to have all your loving

Baby, I need your loving

Got to have all your loving

Elissa B. Terris, 59, of Marietta, Ga., divorced in 2005 after being married for 34 years and raising a daughter, who is now an adult.

 

“A gentleman asked me to marry him and I said no,” she recalled. “I told him, ‘I’m just beginning to fly again, I’m just beginning to be me. Don’t take that away.’ ”

 

“Marriage kind of aged me because there weren’t options,” Ms. Terris said. “There was only one way to go. Now I have choices. One night I slept on the other side of the bed, and I thought, I like this side.”

 

She said she was returning to college to get a master’s degree (her former husband “didn’t want me to do that because I was more educated than he was”), had taken photography classes and was auditioning for a play.

 

“Once you go through something you think will kill you and it doesn’t,” she said, “every day is like a present.”

Bravo! What a great headspace to occupy.

 

I must admit, there are some echoes of the effects that climbing first had on me. Now, I'm more conscious to consider “every day is like a present” simply because I'm aware something will take my life... sooner or later.

 

It could be today.

That quote stuck with me too. Going through a break-up that felt unbearable... til I discovered Ice Climbing ;)
