And you thought you had it bad. Wait until you see these first world problems. Then you'll count your blessings.

One of the big lessons I have learned from my journey is you can’t please everyone, so don’t try.
• 90% of our problems are caused by our own thoughts.
• Never put the key to your happiness in someone else’s pocket.
• Just because a person smiles all the time, doesn’t mean their life is perfect. That smile is a symbol of Hope and Strength.

Without trust there's no reason to continue! Not communicating for quite long say weeks together and for no valid reason,when u know the other one in search of new relationships (keeping Ur partner in the dark)..ain't fine. When confronted,saying Dear,am always there for you is unnerving! Isn't it better to move out from such relationship where you are sure,u r unwanted! Without guilt those behave! Saying I was here! Went no where! What r u saying! Huh! Such kinds are rare!

I don't think I'm a workaholic, but it DOES help me to be busy and I love that.

One of my sister complained I work too much! She told me many times that I should work less and enjoy more but the problem is that I would rather spend time for work than spent time for things such as traveling alone unless it's for business trips.

What about you? Would you prefer working more or less?

3:10am in my city!
Goodnight!

Because of the reactive nature of our unconscious mind, there is always turmoil inside us. Our whole attitude is influenced by our inner reaction. The habit of reacting is what makes our personality good or bad. This habit of reacting is out of our control. We react very little outside, but in the unconcious mind, the action-reaction goes on for 24 hours from birth to death. Even while sleeping, unconcious mind does not sleep. There are only two reactions in our unconscious mind, attraction and repulsion. The drama of life is going on on both these reactions.
If unconcious mind start observing instead of reacting, then the whole problem will be solved.
The whole struggle of spirituality is on this matter how unconcious mind started observing instead of reacting. This stage is called "inner silence", where the mind does not react.
The whole essence of spirituality is "inner silence".

Here's a question for the guys - Im new to this blogging malarkey but recently I was asked if I was big, I don't think I am, but, then, im not looking through a mans eyes.

I am generally a uk size 14 - its classed as medium, measurements being bust 36-38 waist 28-30 & hips 38-40, some of my clothes are a 12, and even some 10-12, so guys, would you consider me big ?

gleaned from years of great errors. Many of us have been there. Male friendships have been a challenge for some aaltarboys, ya think?!?!----but it does get easier, and on occasion, even possible. And rarely, when things go well in this important regard, wouldn't you know it, the buddy's female partner turns out to be difficult? Some are deep into the bottle---never good for socializing with many of us. More often, usually in hen pecked situations, where exquisite control over hubby's existence is paramount, any one taking the wusse's time from her is a threat. And of course there is jealousy, or worse, little wifey isn't getting it, and she casts her wanton glances at the latest new swinging d*ck, often in sequence. And who can overlook garden variety personality disordered driven behaviors? Do we just end the friendship, or practice deceitful subterfuge for avoidance? Over the years, Bob, David, and now it's Eric. But these days, such problems are even more rare.

I know for sure, everyone has dreams & hopes to explore each of some
possibilities if they do come up. Why not. It doesn`t hurt anyone, unless you`re the type to do something on purpose.
Without a start, keeping your mind on certain things, you can`t explore new things, so we take chances.
Not all things come to pass. But at least, you know you tried to make whatever you dream to make something happen for your own destiny.
If you don`t try....lets say, "You may never know" or ask, "Why did I wait ", or "I should have".
We all have experienced things like that.
I was fifteen, at the time. I think my mom dressed me down, with hexagon metal glasses.
But I know we didn`t have money, being a child, that was born to an immigrant couple. I was very aware.of the times of The Great Depression.
I dreamt of being different than I was. Being a cancer sign...this loomed over other things, in the back of my mind....always, pretended being a wife, & mother, when young. But in school, mom could not communicate properly, with teachers & had to have a teacher convince her I could not see the school board work, & needed glasses.
Not too much attention was paid for being clean, we had no tub or shower. So, mom visited my aunt, often, when she took a towel & soap with her, on frequent visits. "By the way, can we use your tub?" -was a question that was etched in my mind..(very embarrassing).
But I over-came that. I was going to make sure, I`d use my dreams & make due with imagination.

I looked for ads in the paper.Being a waitress was appealing to me.
We moved across the street. -Don`t even think on this one thing.
My Mother had a idea (or dream), to build a house, when my dad finally got work which was hard to do, at the time. She met a Polish woman who use to loan money, at 2% interest, to people of the same decent, nearby. She heard of it through others -except my dad. She barrowed $1,000. 00. My dad knew nothing of this.
(I was not to say anything, since I was only 6 yrs old-otherwise, I`d get her eagle eye).. She`d pay it back, since Pop, gave here the check, getting enough for his Imperial whiskey, & a little bit for tobacco, for his pipe.
We had a porch at the old house, with homemade furniture, an oak table that didn`t fit in the 3 bedroom house.
And, of course, my mom`s homemade rocker, which she always used. especially, if she had an idea, for something, as mentioned. (She always rocked faster when her mind was really active!!) I noticed that.
She eventually paid the woman back in a year. My dad still knew nothing, except it was appealing to him to get excess wood to make things, & they became bigger as time went on. Asking if he good have the left-over wood, still not knowing the house was to be ours. The stuff got bigger. My mom found a designer, & he made some plans for her urgings....two bedrooms, one bath, living room, kitchen, etc. The house went up. Meanwhile, with my mom`s raised eye brows, watching my dad bring enough to build a shed on the side of our small house, she`d have to figure a way, to let him knw what she did. (I`m the one who let it slip).
We took a walk, & I mentioned, looking at the house, & said, proudly. "OURS:???? My mom looked at me for a second, & held my hand until it was white.....
My dad had a questioned look. "vat you did , now"?? She had to tell him what happened . She barrowed another $2,000.00 & was half paid back. My brother was drafted, as the war was in progress. He sent money enough to pay the rest. Can`t believe my dad took the credit...& my mom let him.-some dreams do come true.

Back to me, looking in the paper, with meager clothing, I changed & sewed & added stuff to, I found I
could take a bus, earned enough money to pay for Patricia Steven`s Modeling & Finishing school. I did model for 3 yrs, doing live statues I department store windows, & modeled play clothing.

I have been a member of CS for about a year. Of course hoping to find a goodman as a soulmate. AT FIRST that is the ONLY POINT being a member of CS.

As time passed by...there is another thing that I enjoyed in CS. The BLOGs. Recently for the last month, I spent time reading the blogs...and I enjoy it. I read how members support each other....share many topics...(positive and bad)...sharing experience ....and many more. I begin to notice the usual bloggers....
