I'm a wife to Oca III, a teacher, a friend. I'm passionate about writing and photos and an avid life- documenter. This blog, which started on May 08, 2010, gives me the opportunity to share my heart with a few friends. Enjoy! Take a peek of my awesome family! Through all of the posts and a crazy amount of pictures, we hope to document all of the silly details of raising our two precious kids, Ora & Quad IV. We also hope to share some of the fun things that we do around our beautiful sub-urb life... Kisses!

Not Broken... Just Bent!

Right from the start, you were a thief, 
You stole my heart and 
I'm your willing victim 
I let you see the parts of me 
That weren't all that pretty. 
And with every touch 
You fixed them. 
Now, you've been talking in your sleep 
Oh oh, things you never say to me 
Oh oh, tell me that you've had enough 
Of our love, our love. 

Just give me a reason, 
Just a little bit's enough 
Just a second, we're not broken 
Just bent and we can learn to love again. 
it's in the stars, 
It's been written in the scars on our hearts 
We're NOT broken 
Just bent and we can learn to love again. 

I'm sorry I don't understand where 
All of this is coming from. 
I thought that we were fine, 
(Oh, we had everything) 
Your head is running wild again 
My dear, WE still have everything 
And it's all in your MIND. 
(Yeah, but this is happenin') 
You've been having real bad dreams 
Oh oh, you use to lie so close to me 
Oh oh, there's nothing more than empty sheets 
Between our love, our love 
Ooooh, our love, our love. 

Just give me a reason, 
Just a little bit's enough 
Just a second, we're not broken 
Just bent and we can learn to LOVE again. 
I never stopped 
It's still written in the scars on my heart 
You're NOT broken 
Just bent and we can learn to love again. 

Oh, tear ducts and rust 
I'll fix it for us 
We're collecting dust, 
But our love's enough. 
You're holding it in, 
You're pouring a drink 
No, nothing is as bad as it seems. 
We'll come clean! 

Just give me a reason, 
Just a little bit's enough 
Just a second, we're not broken 
Just bent and we can learn to LOVE again. 
It's in the stars 
It's still written in the scars on our hearts 
That We're NOT broken 
Just bent and we can learn to love again. 

Just give me a reason, 
Just a little bit's enough 
Just a second, we're not broken 
Just bent and we can learn to LOVE again. 
Oh, it's in the stars 
It's still written in the scars on our hearts 
That We're NOT broken 
Just bent and we can learn to love again. 

Ooh, we can learn to love again 
Ooh, we can learn to love again 
Oh, that we're not broken 
Just bent and we can learn to love again


This song is featured on the “The Truth About Love” Album. A duet which features the pop stars Pink and Nate Ruess. Pink felt that the song would run better if it is sung as a conversation between two lovers. Reflecting the conflicts which often happens if the communication in the relationship is not open. More often relationships end.

It’s about what someone feels when they want to hold on to a relationship which appears to be breaking down. Pink explains that “one partner can read too much into the action of the other, when in reality they just meant nothing of the sort.” 

True indeed that we sometimes dig too much into petty things, and often feels that the flame is gone, we feel like one doesn’t love the other as much as they used to but they're still together, only because they feel like they're just have to but scared to realize that all is coming to an end.

The female perspective in the song is reminiscing about how she first fell in love with her husband. She wants to believe that they're still as in love as they used to be, but can't bring herself to say it, and isn't sure about how her partner feels about it.

The male perspective is completely oblivious to what his wife's feelings and is surprised that she feels that way, because he thought that everything was going well between them. He soon realizes that she's right and he too, wants them to go back to the way they used to be. However, he's much more laid-back and thinks that it'll be easy but his partner wants him to put more effort into their marriage.

However, in the end, they still manage to give each other a reason to still be together... gladly.  

This song is amazing!  It is a song about second chances. It's about digging deep enough when you've get into a point when things got stale and unsatisfied and you're ready to get out. But instead of giving in, you have to fight back! Relationships aren’t always perfect you know!

This is a just plea reminder to each one of us, to the couples out there,  in every life's circumstances, there were times we feel that our hearts are in horrible condition and that we think of just cutting it out from our chests to better end the sufferings, but we all feel hurt, You just need to try and keep going, remember, YOU’RE NOT BROKEN, JUST BENT AND THAT YOU CAN LEARN TO LOVE A GAIN. With a little work and a lot of communication a relationship can be saved if both are willing to work it out!

Stay Strong! 
You're just Bent But NOT Broken! 



Embrace the current season of your life!
