nomindgames: I choose to live a positive life.I see glass 1/2 full and decided long ago to not let others dictate how I live.I want to keep enjoying life as long as pssible.Also hope that I am helping some along the way who need it.I live attempting to keep good health and to obtain a few goals not yet reached in life.I may be getting older but I refuse to grow up!


That's great hun. I still watch Disney movies, mostly everynight to fall asleep to. Helping others is great.

my fears are backwards.... heights no problem, run into a burning building been there done that. bugs I don't like um but I can deal with um. Now relationships.... me actively looking for someone to be in my life... this is one of the hardest mountains I have ever had to climb as far as fears go. I think I would rather be mauled by a bear.

Finally - someone that has my fear! I would love to be in another relationship that could possibly end in "happily ever after", but I get close and then run far away..........

KrazieStill: For me it's a combo of both. Bill W. said two things would always be there. Fear and ego. Just knowing that helps.


Fear was the Knock On The Door;
Faith Opened it
Nothing Was Outside!

And for the EGO,the Steps are always there!

YUP! but I keep trying. I am slowly learning how to have a healthy relationship, the last one I was in (according to the long time happily married couples I was talking too) I was doing everything right and my bf at the time was a bit off his rocker... so that was rather encouraging! I guess what I am saying is hang in there! recognizing the issues and actively trying to correct them will eventually lead to a happily ever after for both of us *keeping my fingers crossed*

comfort hug cheers

HJFinAZ: Show some woman that shows the slightest interest, and you can also see hysteria...



Perhaps if you took things just a little bit slower (Don't try to give her a full body massage and cop a feel the first time you meet her). And then quit yelling at her on the phone every time you called her.......she might continue to show interest.............. hug lips

An Innocent Man by Billy Joel

Some people stay far away from the door
If there's a chance of it opening up
They hear a voice in the hall outside
And hope that it just passes by

Some people live with the fear of a touch
And the anger of having been a fool
They will not listen to anyone
So nobody tells them a lie

I know you're only protecting yourself
I know you're thinking of somebody else
Someone who hurt you
But I'm not above
Making up for the love
You've been denying you could ever feel
I'm not above doing anything
To restore your faith if I can
Some people see through the eyes of the old
Before they ever get a look at the young
I'm only willing to hear you cry
Because I am an innocent man
I am an innocent man
Oh yes I am

Some people say they will never believe
Another promise they hear in the dark
Because they only remember too well
They heard somebody tell them before

Some people sleep all alone every night
Instead of taking a lover to bed
Some people find that it's easier to hate
Than to wait anymore

I know you don't want to hear what I say
I know you're gonna keep turning away
But I've been there and if I can survive
I can keep you alive
I'm not above going through it again
I'm not above being cool for a while
If you're cruel to me I'll understand

Some people run from a possible fight
Some people figure they can never win
And although this is a fight I can lose
The accused is an innocent man
I am an innocent man
Oh yes I am
An innocent man

You know you only hurt yourself out of spite
I guess you'd rather be a martyr tonight
That's your decision
But I'm not below
Anybody I know
If there's a chance of resurrecting a love
I'm not above going back to the start
To find out where the heartache began

Some people hope for a miracle cure
Some people just accept the world as it is
But I'm not willing to lay down and die
Because I am an innocent man

I am an innocent man
Oh yes I am
An innocent man

.... I thought it rather piognant?? sad flower

I choose to be strong enough to make the hard choices, for myself. I chose a few years ago to seek happiness, rather than living with misery. I've done what I had to do for me, and I am the only one I can choose for. Courage is not about not having fear, courage is being afraid and doing it anyway. grin
