If you're never scared or embarrassed or hurt, it means you never take any chances.
--Julia Soul

Do we avoid making new friends because we're scared they won't like us? Do we get embarrassed when we make a mistake and avoid trying again? When we get our feelings hurt, do we think we're bad, or that something is wrong with us?

Being scared or shy or hurt are all part of being alive. When we try to stay away from painful feelings, we keep ourselves from having many wonderful adventures. If we're afraid to meet new people, we may never have any close friends. If we stop trying when we're embarrassed, we may never learn a better way of doing things. And if we don't share our hurt feelings, we may never find out that everyone else has the same feelings we have.

That sounds like an honest and sincere answer from a Good Man!!!
Best of luck to ya Bud!!!!!!!!

You have a few real pearls out there today. How ya been friend

All good here in AZ. How are things in MO? Have the storms taken a break?

Are you in my mind???? Or have you been secretely watching my life??

Thank you friend!!!!

Oh those words hit home ..... and slowly I'm beginning to change and evolve. Having those enlightening moments has made me realize that probably my biggest enemy is me.

I'm trying to understand women ...and of course, failing miserably.

But everyday is a new day...

Sometimes its best to realize that it will never happen - if you get an inkling once and awhile - maybe be satisfied with that?

I can try...

It's like Fourier Equations. I may not be able to understand them, but still, they're intriguing enough to try...

Ok people I stepped outta my comfort zone today ..................... so please send good thoughts that I'll get a new job that I've applied for and if not at least the courage to move on from where I'm at. I've been procrastinating about this for quite some time ....... but its getting down to crunch time and I've got to make a change.

The only thing we have the power to change is us, and what we do..

Hope your job search went well..

Very true ........... and moving forward empowers me in so many ways. Seems so simple, but for me its quite the challenge since I usually have my heels dug right in the mud! lol

Thanks for the good wishes ..................... there are many more things on my list!

Sure puts things in perspective now doesn't it? Thanks, HJF!
