Ok guys, this one is near and dear to me. I tried my best to shy away from this but it just wont go away! I was in the car running errands yesterday and Lauryn Hill's 'Ex-Factor' comes on. Now believe me when I tell you this is one of my favorite songs by her just like most people I know. But this time listening to the song was different. I've always felt the song but yesterday I felt the song like it was my heartbeat. My eyes welled up with tears as I song along with the song pulling into the Walgreens parking lot. Every word of that song sounded like booming reminders of my relationship with my "ex-factor". Now I'm sure that everyone can relate to this song in one way or another, male/female, young/old....you know how this feels! Fighting to stay in a relationship, fighting to leave a relationship, this uncontrollable feeling of helplessness as you continue in the battle with yourself. Knowing that letting go is what you need to do but the love you have for this person is too strong to just let go. Feeling like you are on the losing end of the stick but somehow letting this person back in because they are like an addiction. The battle of not knowing to stay or go, the battle of knowing what to do and not being strong enough to do it!
Somebody feel me!?
Anyway I just had to let this one out..... check out the video to the talented Ms Hill's Ex-Factor

PEACE!!!
