I wanted to date the cute guy that lived two streets over and my dad said he was trouble.
I dated him anyway in secret. He almost got me killed by speeding down the highway like a madman and we ran off the road and crashed. No serious injuries but after the crash the first thing the guy did was check out his car for damage. He didn't even ask how I was.

I should have listened to my dad.

I also wanted to be a woman fireman but my dad said he would shot all the other firemen if they looked at me.
So I became a waitress.

It will change.

Because sometimes we do not listen.

You know, listening is one thing that, sometimes, we are bad at.

When a person tell me to shut up, I am talking now, I sigh and think why should I.

But then I do, because if we do not, are we not then showing disresepct to the person who is taking the time to talk to us?

Morning Sommerhug

I actually didn't have to listen that much because i was always mature. I was my mother's "secretary"- getting fax's, serious stuff at home when i was 13! When i turned 20, she gave a speech, thanking me for not causing her problems. So, i've always been boring this way. My greatest adventure was to go to NL without knowing if i was admitted or not, going there to discuss and arrange everything from scratch.laugh
uh oh

...when i was 17, my boyfriend had a serious accident, 130km away. My mother hated him because he was her competitor on my attention or she was losing control over me (she was a big mam), she had several times told me to leave him, bla, bla. Well, at the beginning, with her i had to ask stuff and then she needed days to decidelaugh but when my bf had the accident, i went to her and explained the situation and informed her that i was going on the trip to him. She said NO, i did go anyway. Nothing happened when i got back. She probably took it as a force majour stufflaugh

blushing dunno

I applaud all of what you have done Cris.

But however mature I feel, I still listen, an art I learnt last night, when one person told me to shut up, it was his turn to talk.

And you are never boring.

My family and friends advise me not to move here

but i didnt listen and listen to my heart...

People will advise you on all kinds of things..

but it really is up to the individual themselves..
becos they are the one who has to live with
the decision they made..not othershandshake

When I was 18 my family tried to stop me from marrying my late husband but I married him anyway & am glad I did too. If I had that chance to marry him all over again I would in a heartbeat.

Thanks to all who have postedhug I am a tad inebreated at the moment so I am unable to ansewr in the correct manner in which the responses deservedrinking Christmas do and all that from workroll eyes


I had such a passion to become a nun at an early age, if I hadnt my son i probally would have gone back to become one it was so important to me. Very few understood it, i was an alien within my friends.

it is what it is

Today, when I talk either in person or via mial its is always with compassion,rarely with myself in mind..always the other

Yet over the past 2 years I have learned to be selfish and in being so, I now have the ability to care even more about those around me,its just who ?i am. and sadly in this day and age, some folks, due to their expereinces view my compasssion cynically and are wary

truly makes me sad
