"The Best Thing I Never Had"- Beyonce

What goes around comes back around, hey! (my baby),
What goes around comes back around, hey! (my baby),
I say what goes around comes back around, hey! (my baby),
What goes around comes back around...

There was a time
I thought, that you did everything right,
No lies, no wrong,
Boy I must have been out of my mind,
So when I think of the time that I almost loved you,
You showed your ass and I, I saw the real you!

Thank God you blew it,
Thank God I dodged the bullet,
I'm so over you
So baby go lookin' out!

[Chorus]
I wanted you bad,
I'm so through with it,
'Cause honestly you turned out to be the best thing I never had,
You turned out to be the best thing I never had,
And I'm gon' always be the best thing you never had,
Oh yeah, I bet it sucks to be you right now!

So sad, you're hurt,
Boo hoo, oh did you expect me to care?
You don't deserve my tears,
I guess that's why they ain't there,
When I think that there was a time that I almost loved you,
You showed your ass and baby yes I saw the real you!

Thank God you blew it,
Oh thank God I dodged the bullet,
I'm so over you,
Baby go lookin' out!

[Chorus]
I wanted you bad,
I'm so through with it,
'Cause honestly you turned out to be the best thing I never had,
I say, you turned out to be the best thing I never had,
Hmm and I'll never be the best thing you never had,
Oh baby I bet it sucks to be you right now!

I know you want me back,
It's time to face the facts
That I'm the one that's got away,
Lord knows that it would take another place, another time, another world, another life,
Thank God I found the good in goodbye!

[Chorus]
Oh I used to want you so bad!
I'm so through with it,
'Cause honestly you turned out to be the best thing I never had,
Oh you turned out to be the best thing I never had,
And I will always be the best thing you never had,
Ouhh best thing you never had!

I used to want you so bad!
I'm so through with it,
'Cause honestly you turned out to be the best thing I never had,
Oh you turned out to be the best thing I never had,
Ouh I'll never be the best thing you never had,
Ohh baby, I bet it sucks to be you right now!

(What goes around comes back around),
(What goes around comes back around),
I bet it sucks to be you right now,
(What goes around comes back around),
I bet it sucks to be you right now,
(What goes around comes back around),
I bet it sucks to be you right now.



I think we've all had those moments where the person we were with or liked, turned out to be nothing like we thought they'd be. The moment it didn't work out turned out to be the best thing to ever happen; a blessing in disguise. So, if you go through a break up...just think of it as one step closer to finding your  perfect match and the one God has planned for you. The one you're supposed to be with would never break your heart like the other guy did. Just be patient, just be patient. I need to remember that ;)

Day 3-I'm Thankful For...

My best friends, friends and acquaintances...the old, the new, and even the ones I haven't met yet! I'm appreciative of friendship, and the people that come into your life and stay by choice. Our families are sort of required to be there for us, and we're thrown together at holidays or this or that. Friends choose to hang out with you! The friends I have in my life now are some of the most incredible people I've ever known. And even when we go through periods of not talking much, I know they've always got my back and I have theirs. No matter what we go through, I know that they'll be my friends for life. That's the most comforting feeling. Maybe we'll be raising our kids together someday!

These are some really great times..to be young and not have too many cares in the world, so we can hang out together. As we get older, start having families of our own and careers, it'll get harder to see one another very much. These are the times to not take for granted, because they won't always be here!

Love them all so much and I thank God for them! :D

One Tree Hill Says Goodbye After Nine Seasons

Some of my favorite quotes from the show!! And some pictures that cast members tweeted during the last days of filming.

Haley: I don't want to see you lose your dream.
Nathan: Lose her? She's right here and I'm never letting go of her.

"E.E Cummings once said, 'To be nobody but yourself, in a world which is doing its best, day and night, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle, which any human being can fight and never stop fighting.'" (Lucas)

"Henry James once wrote, 'Be not afraid of life; believe that life is worth living, and your belief will help create the fact." (Lucas)

Happiness comes in many forms -- in the company of good friends, in the feeling you get when you make someone else's dream come true, or in the promise of hope renewed. It's okay to let yourself be happy because you never know how fleeting that happiness might be. (Lucas)

There's no shame in being afraid. Hell, we're all afraid. What you gotta do is figure out what you're afraid of, because when you put a face on it you can beat it. Better yet, you can use it. Looking back on what I said all those years ago, all the hopes and dreams I had, I've come to the conclusion that if having things turn out the way you wanted them to is a measure of a successful life, then some would say I'm a failure. (Whitey)

Have you ever wondered what marks our time here? If one life can really make an impact on the world? Or if the choices we make matter? I believe they do. And I believe that one man can change many lives... for better or worse!

Haley James Scott

 "I'd rather risk a short full life than have a long empty one." (Lucas)

"Not knowing is the hardest part." (Haley James)

"Why does it seem like every time things are finally going to be okay, something terrible happens?" (Peyton)

"I want to believe in the goodness of people." (Haley James)

"You can always come up with reasons to give up. But if you don't, you just might find yourself in places you never imagined." (Karen)

"Losing your way on a journey is unfortunate. But, losing your reason for the journey...is a fate more cruel." (Nathan)

"Our biggest regrets are not for the things we did...but, for the things we did not do." (Lucas)

"Life always has a way of figuring out how to surprise you." (Haley)

"These are the best days, aren't they? When we look back, these are the days we'll remember." (Brooke Davis)

"People disappoint you, I get that. But, what if you wake up and find one day that you're the disappointment?" (Peyton)

James Lafferty tweeted this of the River Court

Bethany kissed the door-I believe this was her tweet!

Bethany tweeted this picture

:*( (Tears) So sad!!! A fan posted this, I don't take credit for it.

This episode gets me every time!

Such an insightful show that will be missed! It taught a lot of life lessons, showed how different people can become friends, and how to get through the challenges that try to get us down. I hope it gets the series finale it deserves!

Day 2-I'm Thankful For...

My family. I don't know where I'd be without them. I've always been really close with a lot of family members. I think being an only child has always made me want to get to know my extended family more and to be close with them, like "Full House". When I was younger, I thought it would be the coolest thing ever if we all lived in the same house...Now that I think about it, it doesn't seem very realistic, but it's still a nice idea. I love my family; they are incredible people, and they've shaped me into who I am today. They've helped me, encouraged me, put up with me, and most of all, they've loved me. And I usually end up laughing the hardest when I'm around them! They're hilarious! We may not always get along, and we may not always see eye to eye but we're family. We stand by each other!

Not all of my family are shown in the pictures, and there are grandparents that I was really close to that have passed away, but I still love them just as much. It doesn't matter how much time has passed with seeing or talking to family, or what you've gone through...The bond families have will keep them together no matter what.
I'm extremely grateful that God has blessed me with them, and there are a lot of times that I take them for granted, I'm going to start working on that more, because I don't deserve them and we're not guaranteed tomorrow. And we need to cherish every moment we have with our families.

That's all for now,
~Shelby~
