True to myself ...hmmm !!! How much effort can it
be ? ? ? ?It's been a few months since I first joined this site, and I must admit that I have made a few people here whom I would be happy calling friend . . . both male and female.
Since I first joined, I jumped in with the blogs, got to know different peoples' styles, and decided that I wanted to be part of this blogging community. I know that I have a pretty crazy sense of humor which s not everybody's cup of tea, but my decision was to be true to myself, and when I made that decision I also made the decision not to be what others thought I should be. Being true to myself means that I can allow any aspect of my life, to take centre stage, when the need or the desire arises.
How much I reveal,of course always remains my prerogative.
Of course, knowing why I am here has also helped . . . it means that when I blog, I remain stress free about attaining a goal. I know that while it would be good to have a partner in my life, it can NOT be my sole reason for doing anything in my life. Life goes on, irrespective of what my personal relationship status is.
I have never had a problem with that in the past and I don't have one with it now.
Blogging has been interesting, a new experience for me. Initially, I found myself quite hooked on the whole process, and it was fun, except that it was not very healthy, in that it consumed almost ALL my free time. More recently, I have learned to find its proper niche in my life. I like that spot it has claimed. A social outlet, to a life which can sometimes become overwhelmingly busy. However, it is NOT meant to replace my social interaction with people in my real sphere of influence.
Life is meant to be lived. . . are you ready to live . . . . or are you happy to merely exist . . . .

great to have you here! Great blog and as usual, thought - provoking but very kind to read and comment as well
Coffee, I am sure we all faced the same like you. We all were hooked in the beginning and after shorter-longer time we found healthy approach to blogging in virtual world and socializing in real life as well.
Being here is for me a way of relax, sometimes way of watching
people´s behaviour and reactions... or just chit-chat with girls and guys about ... nothing...
Coffee, I really like you being here!
I`m learning to live all over again, and it feels good!
If I`m not ready now, then I`ll never be!
YOu know that the feeling is mutual. Like I said, friends worth having
It's always good to chat to you and get your views on issues.
And thet is nice like for instance when u can't sleep or wake up in the middle of the night or have 5min in the lunch or maybe 10min after you have picked up kids form school and before starting making dinner and similar small timepockets like that.
It's amazing what a bit a laughter can do to someone's life.
Glad to be back. Always good to see you out here.
You're looking GOOOOOD. Like the new Pics
U know the speed just travelling at speed of light.
Im looking with terror upon the time when we will be down to nanoseconds, not to mention pikoseconds...

Sometimes I find it only comes after a prodding, a wake-up call. It's too easy sometimes to just let things slide.
That seems to work for me . . it's normally less work involved rather than trying be be weho we are not.
Thank you. I do like yours, too!
