I’ve learned over the years that people come into our lives for a reason; some remain and some move on. I’ve also learned that in every aspect of life there will be sadness and there will be joy. We can not appreciate the joy without knowing the sadness. My formal education, along with the education of life has taught me many things about human nature. I am guarded and safe within my knowledge, however, the heart still bleeds. I can not reconcile the differences here; I am only one person. I feel no need to defend myself, when I feel I have made no offense so cruel that it could not be forgiven.
I do, in fact, have some friends here. They know who they are. They have brightened the dark days and brought laughter when it was needed. They allowed themselves to see me for who I am. For that, I am grateful.
We are not children. This is not a game of winners or losers. We are real people, with real lives, real pain, real loss, real love, real regrets, real feelings, real thoughts, and real sadness. We are all significant and never, should anybody be made to feel any less than that.

For as long as the world survives, there will always be differences. It is what makes each person unique and significant. We come here from all walks of life; from every corner of the world. It is impossible to even consider that everybody will always share the same values, morals, religion and beliefs. It is, however, a responsibility of each of us to at least try to learn from the other. To understand that we all have one commonality,we are all human beings, and despite our differences, deserve a chance.
I’ve made mistakes; we’ve all made mistakes. I haven’t too much pride to admit my faults as I have learned that pride will teach us nothing.
When I look in the mirror I see a woman with wisdom, knowledge, love, respect, joy, happiness, and sadness. Sadness because I’ve missed the opportunity to know so many whom could have enriched my life.

Ice, a beautiful, heartfelt post. You are SO right. And, sweetie, if anyone had told me in my twenties, that there was a lot I did not know....I NEVER WOULD HAVE BELIEVED THEM. I'm SURE I knew it all.

Well, over the years, with my friends, my travels, my single life, and yes, my romantic interludes, I have learned SOOO much. I still have a thirst for knowledge...now studying comparative religions...just want to know where and when we all went separate ways...and why. There's never an end to learning. And, sometimes we aren't all that separate.

Yes, we are all indviduals with our backgrounds, our hopes, our fears, our wishes and yes, our baggage....something I happen to think is necessary because as I've said before, it is filled with everything that made us who were are today.

There is so much truth and poignancy in what you've said. I enjoy being your friend.

Fondly,
Judy

The reality is that this site will have people who will disagree, and sometimes really not like one another and we will miss out on this learning and sharing experience because we are hard-headed and hard-hearted.

This is evident over and over again in the last few days ....... you can only be responsible for yourself and what you post ...................... so take a moment to pause before hitting the send button. You may change your mind and learn to bite your fingers (aka tongue).
