Random Thoughts ..
Some experiences in life some people we met leave behind beautiful memories worth a lifetimes reminiscing. Its strange how people walk in to your life, change a part of you so vital, to be gone again one day leaving behind memories so beautiful.
I wonder why life is so difficult and many a times so confusing if in reality all we are looking for is love. The ones who hurt , who lose , who sacrifice .. when its all for love , why does there have to be so much pain.
I am new to blogging so all I could manage was a few thoughts randomly on my mind.

Single
To the single folks out there, this is for you. Single means you have the time to grow and be the person you want to be. Single gives you space to grow. Sometimes, it is harder to grow when you are too close to someone. Trees are planted far apart so they can spread their branches and become strong as they mature. Single means learning to live by yourself. However, that is no more difficult than learning to live with somebody else. Single means freedom. You are free to spend a week's vacation on the beach, to take computer courses, to work late on an interesting project, to spend the day in bed with a good book or simply with a person who has read one. Single means learning not to need a man/woman to make your life meaningful but learning to live with a man/woman because you want to be with him/her. Single means that sometimes you will wonder why you will bite your lip and feel wistful and wonder if marriage is better. Ironically, yet quite happily, single is feeling good about being in control of your life. It is liking and respecting who you are and why you are. Single is realizing that being married is not necessarily better, it is merely different. Single means that there could be something wonderful around the corner and you can take advantage of it. Single means you are free to love again.
hmm
The grass is always greener;u dont know what u have till its gone;ur danmed if u do ur danmed if u don't; its ment to be; its better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. ........ words for those who need reassurance

Cyber Love
Internet romance?? I've never experienced online love. I've heard about "Love at first byte", but i feel that such relationships are not real or simply won't last. Do you think you can fall in love with someone you have never met? Hemmm. Well, anything is possible in this world we are living in. What do you think?
Love On The Internet
by Dove
Though I wasn't looking for anyone new,
One day I got e- mail and in it was you.
Charming, sensitive and so debonair,
I strongly resisted it go anywhere.
But letters and stories captured my heart,
Filled me with passion almost from the start.
Love on the Internet, how could it be?
These things just don't happen to people like me.
But doves and butterflies flew into our lives,
Carrying messages we could not deny.
Each person has meaning and love to express,
And we could deny our hearts nothing less.
It's a beautiful love that has grown between us,
Something beyond any words we discuss.
Much deeper than LOL, cyber kisses and such,
Far down to our souls, beyond human touch.
My love's not confined by what it can see,
I feel you, I taste you, I experience your dream.
Close my eyes, and I envision what in my heart I can hear,
"Love knows no boundaries, no distance, no fear."
It's the soul that captures God's love in a way,
That eternally melts hearts together to stay.
Fused and sealed forever as one,
Love has its way and new life is begun.
The Windmills of the mind
The heat wears you down. Mentally more then physically. Lethargic. Not in the mood for anything except lounging around.
Maybe it is just my system telling me I neede to slow down for a bit. And I did.
Last couple of weeks have done nothing really concrete. Cleaned out the pad....one good thing. Didn't feel like dust anymore. The workers have carried out the bulk of the work here. Still lots to be done. But it can wait for a bit now.
Should be coming in again to carry on next week when school starts for the kids. It's like an invisable signal that tells you summer is over so let's get on with the rest of things.
But in the meantime one can afford to laze around for a bit. Call it a well deserved break.
And that is when the windmill of the mind seem to swill around aimlessly. How funny. So much has changed in these couple of decades, and yet everything seems to remain the same.
We are still at each other's throats. We still only hear about war, talk of war, drums of war, and still some more just in case you didn't get it the first time.
It seems those that are craving the seats of power have nothing better to do then play war games.
In the meantime, the silent voice of the planet keeps screaming at us to change. To stop abusing oursleves and our intelligence. But few if any, listen. Everybody talks, but nobody listens.
And in the cacophony of noise that we emit, the sound of reason is lost.
Forgeting we are but a large colony of ants in a universe much vaster then ourselves. And that we are at the mercy of that which we still do not understand.
And in our imagined role of playing God, we forget that one instant, one push of a wrong button.....and whoosh....we are gone...never again to be.

6 Things Men Shouldn't Say To Women
We all know that men often stick their foot in it when talking to a woman. Most of the time, this happens by accident. At least, I would hope it does. Obviously, there are plenty of things one should not say to a woman, particularly if you're romantically involved with her, but men often fail to realize that several seemingly innocent remarks can really tick a woman off. Especially if it happens to be true! (What, are you surprised to hear that we actually realize that some of this stuff is true? Of course we do. That doesn't mean we want to hear it from you, though!)
The following 6 phrases should always be avoided -- whether you are dating her, or not.
You look tired.
Unless you're saying this at 0300 in the morning as we prepare to drift off to sleep, this is not going to go over well. You may think that all you're doing is remarking on droopy eyelids and a semi-stifled yawn, but that's not what we hear. Oh, no. We hear something more along the lines of, "You look like arse, and I can't imagine ever finding you attractive again." Of course, the interpretation will vary, depending on how neurotic your woman is.
You're overreacting.
Few things tick a woman off faster than hearing this one. No matter what the scenario, she does not want to hear this from you. It's bad enough we have to deal with knowing that most of you just pretend to give a toss when we're upset about something -- but to actually have to hear you say this? Oh, no, you didn't!
Is that what you're wearing?
This is one of the stupidest things a man can ask. Your woman walks downstairs in a short skirt and heels, hair done up, lipstick looking fab, and you ask her if that is what she's wearing? No. She thought she'd fake you out and then run back and change into the burlap bag she'd been meaning to wear all along. Of course that is what she is wearing. Not that she'll be wearing it much longer, as you've probably ticked her off to the point she doesn't want to go anywhere now.
Are you PMSing?
Whether she is or she isn't, this is not the question a sane man asks a female. And you'd better hope she isn't, cos, if she is, she's going to be that much more annoyed by the reminder. Say this one only when you're sure your boys are well out of knee's reach.
Your friend is hot.
I'm sure even the most clueless of men knows this is the wrong thing to say to a woman he's involved with, but this is also the wrong thing to say to most women you are not involved with. Why? Because it often translates into, "Wow, you're friend is so hot -- and you are so not.". Unless the woman you're saying it to is your sister, I recommend not using this one.
You and your mother could be sisters.
Gawd, what a bad thing to say. I don't care if her mother was a supermodel in the 70s -- no one wants to hear that they look just like someone 20 or more years older than them. If your girl is in her early 20s, she may think it's cute or funny. If she is in her 30s and preoccupied with newly discovered bits of gray hair -- you are not going to stir any warm and fuzzy feelings with this one!
Thanks I.S.
net dating for the 50++
ah..........for the days of the past.. or maybe its still the same...i am just decades to advanced........
at least when i check out the bars/clubs...community events..concerts..... there seems to be ..kids..and that is all.. just kids... where are all the old folks.........bed????
so on the net i go.. live to far up in the hills to go to town that often anyway...
after being on yahoo for a couple of months last year...and match for 3 months..this year... whew!!!! has my learning curve jumped.... i much prefer the old meet and greet in the local brewery... at least you really get to see what your into.. and you get a ..hi or goodbye right up front..non of this talking on the net for a couple of weeks and then getting the cold shoulder... or the lets get together next week.. ????? huh!!! not in this life time.!!!!.. i guess that is like the old give him the wrong phone number thing of years..past...!!!
oh well i guess you have to roll with what you have.. who would have ever guessed it would come to this
net protocol
ladies:this may not be a problem for anyone but me...
however........
i was brought up old school..back when folks had manners.. and there were things you said and did and things you did not ...
i do not know the correct protocol for this net dating...but it seems to me if you take the time to contact someone then the least they should do is write back and say no thank you..
supposedly we are all on here to meet someone.. so you can not very well say you dont have time to respond..or you dont want to bother.. if either of those is true ..i would think you should be else where..
in short i think if you get a response good manners would dictate a response back..
thank you

How am I going to tell him/her?
Jimmy and Kathy are newlyweds in the honeymoon suite on their wedding night, and Kathy's in the bathroom. As Jimmy's getting undressed he says to himself, "How am I going to tell her? How am I going to tell my new wife that I have the world's smelliest feet?" Then he throws his socks under the bed. Kathy walks out of the bathroom, and, too chicken to face her, Jimmy runs past her and *he* goes into the bathroom. Kathy sits on the edge of the bed and says to herself, How am I going to tell him? How am I going to tell my new husband that I have the world's worst breath? I've got to tell him." Just then Jimmy walks out of the bathroom. Kathy runs up to him, gives him a huge wet kiss, pulls back and says, "Honey, I've got to tell you something." Jimmy says, "Yeah, I know. You just ate my socks."
When a man opens the door of his car for his wife, you can be sure of one thing: either the car is new or the wife is!!!
Have a great weekend!
DONT FORGET TO SMILE ONCE IN A WHILE!
