I was hesitant to name the war because I was considering that it is your home country and I didn't want you to think I had ill feelings towards Viet Nam. On the contrary, I was very much against that war as were many Americans. But it is in the past now and it serves as a reminder how fruitless wars and killing is.
It was good that you visited the museum. However, in America we are just now barely honoring the Viet Nam vets. But at least it is long over!
How sweet of you to comment! Thanks for dropping by!

You are absolutely right. Yep, we shared fishing memories, horsing around memories, music stories about the gigs we played. But the best part was the constant "funning" we had imitating the "cholo" class of Hispanics and their speaking habits and "culture". Cholo is the name of the "barrio" (Hispanic ghetto) dudes that hung around the barrio doing their thing. They're funny to say the least.
"meow"joy!
Again, absolutely correct. Whenever we went fishing we would hook one and we'd say, "Get the Kodak (camera)". We we're positive we had caught the trophy trout!
You know, it's not the first time I've had to walk away from people. I have also done this to some of my own brothers and sisters. They really gave me alot of grief as a young child. It was then that I had to make the decision to just walk away from people that do things to you. Especially rotten things. I still love them but there's no use to being around them if they are walking all over you!
I am looking at this situation from my perspective. If I accept a possession to care for until the owner comes back to claim it I will live up to my word. I will care for it as if it were mine. That said, I think your friend is not really your friend.
I say that because after she accepted the responsibility the responsibility flew out the window because she no longer cared enough because it may have been "in the way" and she was now sorry she accepted it.
I have gone away from people like that. I don't harbor resentment but I will not trust them any longer! I need to write a blog about a very personal thing regarding lost friendship when "friends" no longer hold my trust!
One of the neatest things I ever saw was this man I used to work for come home, put some oldies on the radio and grab his wonderful wife and dance with her!! JUST BECAUSE!
I used to favor the death penalty until the "news" about all the false and inaccurate information surfaced as you said. Now I am against the death penalty!
I was getting ready to e-mail you and prompt you to blog again.
If I were you I wouldn't continue to care about the your ex and his new girl. Get away from them and start your own life! You will be much happier because of it!
Prayers and blessings to you from the Almighty God.
I have read alot of problem stories from you and the thing I like about this is that they seem to make you stronger! You bounce back with a job and your back to doing well.
Good for you and I pray that God keeps you blessed and healthy!
Forgiveness worked for me. It took me a long time but I finally let go.
One of the things that really helped is the love of my 3 kids and 3 grandkids. There are so many good things about our relationships that it would take me hours to list them all.
