WHICH LIVING PERSON DO YOU MOST ADMIRE? (46)
smoky: My little sister in South Africa. She is having to take care and supervise the care of our mother who has begun living in that Twilight world of the over 90`s - very difficult in a country that takes no real notice of the needs of the elderly.
Smoky, its difficult anywhere at that age, no country takes care of their elders. much less UK they now have the worst medical and care system in all of europe. (Once it was the best)
So is life i expect.
Mirodenia: me
Seriously now: I have none to admire, that's why I am here - looking for somebody to admire.
Hope to stop receiving stupidities from men and the admiring part to start soon!

Miro, you know men cannot multitask, they can only think of one thing at a time not 2 or 3 things, like the female race can.
smoky: Oh yes, long married couples who no longer communicate are pathetic and stupid - I call them cowards - too afraid to let go, and not enough sense to get their act together. Its amazing how some people can exist in this type of self-imposed prison of hate towards each other. THAT is the reason I admire those couples who sort out their problems and get on with Living.
The isolation and egocentrism is a result of Too Much Freedom. How can wives stay at home anymore - they have to get out into the market place and compete. They have to provide for themselves and their own futures - there is no more "unity" in a marriage. In fact marriage has become a farce. Neither of couples seem to know what they in it for? Most seem to never stop looking for a new mate, any time, any place..... a type of consumerism .... ?
Yes, I have seen how "date sites" are just a game-playing scenario - maybe 1 in a 2000 actually meet anyone seriously looking - the rest seem to be all just egotistical fantasies.

I admire single mothers who raise families, hold down jobs, and bring the bacon home, all at the same time...really...I don't think I could do it...but they do..everyday..

Bloody well said Smokey. Marriage is a total and utter bloody farce, fact. If any of my kids get married I will have them bleedin well certified. I particularly appreciate your comments re being married and yet still looking for a mate. I also abhore the pathetic " oh well, everybody is at it these days " when an errant partner gets found out.
If you have no intention of being faithful then do not get married.
Definitely Geri Halliwell known as Ginger Spice. I've been one of her biggest fans since 1996 
Actually, right now ..... I think I most admire Tina Turner! She`s about 8 years older than me - and still nearly as good as me!

Nein, I made sure my ex-husbands all had a very bad life with me - Something to remember me by.
Nein, I just love how she keeps herself so super fit and looks so good at her age!!!! and still wows the crowds!!!!!
very easy choice this one.
Nelson Mandela
All the other person one could come up with, one needs a motivation.
Nelson Mandela's name stands on its own.
