I am firm believer that it takes two to Tango -however if you have partner that is not honest you can dance as long you like but you can't do nothing right with dishonest person. Also I think complaints in relationship should be on minimum 'box level' - and rather use positive reinforcement
Fotinia0737, I think to make dream possible we can make things to happen as it is not use just wishing and not doing something about it. Some times we make wrong choice to chase the dream with unreal-fouls person -while real person is close to our reach and we don't see it...but I am confident our dreams can be very real if we work on it from realistic approach.
Hello Scott1812,most people would agree that combination of both would be ideal but I would rather distinguish people from being honest or dishonest- than separate them from being reserved or fun outgoing as what it really matters in genuine honest good intention person
Daniel, happy birthday to you. You look so much younger, what do you do to keep yourself looking like "baby" in 30 -loll. Have a wonderful day and wish all your dreams comes true !
Hello leahkathrine;I like to add quotation to this subject; "Grudges are like babies -the more you nurse them, the bigger they will grow." I think addressing important issues is great, but ignoring when you can is often better...
Hi zmontainman, it's so many counting goods you delivered and still things didn't work out. Being affectionate with thoughtful presents is very nice and all women want's it but as you know; affections can be all different kind... Sorry to ask; did your down heads made decisions to pick up such self centred women
Hi wenever, being man who is dedicated to work, that's impressive attitude and respectful one and as body clock and habits takes over us it fells strange to relax on free day. Hope you enjoy your free time. Cheers !
Hello Ksi, there is more ways to love...First we must love ourselves, than Love can be divided endlessly and still not diminish. We must learn how to win love; it's got with difficulty, with much labour and I am shore in time you will find that some times "bad things happens for a reason so new things/new Love can take place"...Best of luck.
Wenever, thank you for sharing humoristic story. One's my daughter misplaced her mobile phone in her (at the time) messy bedroom and she ask me to call her mobile so we can find it. I've called her number and it turned out to be under her foot in bedroom, loll.
The world didn't end but we have many environmental changes that can't only effect one part of world, without effecting the other part...so it's best to enjoy present time, to appreciate what we have now. Cheers to all !
One's I've changed my mobile number and forgot about it, than on the same day from my mobile I called my daughter at home on home phone, that she didn't pick up. Later that night I sow someone called me(didn't recognised my own mobile number) than from my home phone I called that unfamiliar mobile number when my mobile start ringing... I've picked up my mobile and said; "Could you please wait, I am on the other phone ?" and hear my own voice...I had such fun laughing with myself.
It is warming my heart to read about all your compassionate expressions about such tragedies that's happening this days. Life who cares only for itself is like a sunless garden where the flowers are dead; so consciousness of caring for others and do our bit to help makes us bond in united humanity; what ever race and culture we may be. I fell proud of all of you who Cares.
Pore man, what an extreme sacrificed he made to prove his point of protest, so sad. I agree with Mr Flyjames points. It's not the point to move to another country but for the whole world to take attention on any miss - justice anywhere in the world as we do live on the one planet called Earth and imbalances from one side of the world can not make immune the other part of the world as we are all effected in different ways...and every time we closed our eyes pretending not to see or wishing not to know -we are not making ourselves better/ compassionate people.
Hi SoonerGal,I have had similar recent experience; some people are just blind Narcissist who see's only straight line of they're own views/points and with open ended questions that leads only to they're one direction of interest 'self centre points' and with such people word compromises and openness in seeing whole picture from every angle,it's like hitting brick wool
We can't change other people, only ourselves how we respond to some people ignorance and maybe it's 'not they're fault' for having 'small visions' of not being able to see more deeper than what they're want to see, but it's they're big miss in attitude unbalanced social gravity where is always someone else fault, as when you accuse someone else of something you can not face in yourself, you also lose a precious chance to reclaim something from the shadow, to haul something back out of the bag, and to know more about 'who you are' which involves learning some relatively unpalatable truths about yourself that makes you safe, based on the ground of truth rather than on the shaky foundations of wishful thinking. In my point of views, the person who will be most effective in striving towards friendship justifications, relationship justifications or social justice is the one who is most critical of himself/herself, who takes care to differentiate his own flaws and to take responsibility for them before he/she goes out to correct his friend or partner or who ever...The person who commits himself to a life of continuing confrontation with the unconscious within himself will also confront the unknown in the world as large with an open mind and a heart of wisdom. None of us is perfect, we all do mistakes but to keep an open mind is gift we give to ourselves. Good for you to fell now better as you should as you obviously touch the heart of point within yourself.
Sorry about your loss.Cherish the memories. In the past I've loss dog and cat, it's painful. I also loss country where I come from and family and partner who suddenly dyed and it doesn't gets any easier but time heals wounds. It's important to focus on what we have to appreciate in present time.
A teaching from the Hindu scripture the Isa Upanishad reinforce this; "Who sees all beings in his own Self, and he's own Self in all beings, loses all fear." Not just loses fear but find love ! We all live some fears; fear of intimacy, fear of commitment or truth ? Fear of being alone or not getting what one wants, fear of not being desired or fear of body image or the awesomeness of love or fear of felling trapped in situation we regretfully created in our life and not shore how to move on...and it's all in our mind that we can change by changing the way of thinking outside the box. I think it's not just individual desires or what we see in magazines that sadly generally effects public opinion to translate what GLAMOURUS CHEMISTRY looks like (which I agree is shallow views) but our own fears are also equally responsible of what views and opinion we create about the idea of CHEMISTRY. Through paying attentions to all aspects of life, including those that involve our own body and are part of shared intimacy, it takes us deep into the most personal and private areas of our lives and how we live out our ideas and ideals that has profound interpersonal and social consequences. Truthfully, we can not deniyed importance of how we are personally effected in felling comfortable in our own body to share intimacy but in my opinion Chemistry is in smile when the two people meet, it's there in the interest one shows while the other talks, it's in the delight of having time apart and coming back together, it's in their sorrows as wall the time of the singing, it's there when person honours you with the opportunity to be as close to their body as to mind and soul.

Simmo, are you another version (of male) Erica Yung that tells all about her private experiences or another version of America writer Hanry Miller ? Loll
Hi Simmo1,seance out of curiosity I began to read your blog I like to express my sincere joy and fun you give me in sharing your experiences hear. I lough so much with last part of your story, where you wished lady;"... every success with finding someone to reupholster her leather sofa." Loll. That's hilariously funny. -(I hope one day I will not laugh so much reading something on my account).Loll.
It is in this pause of reflections where we deepen our listening or choose not to judge or how to endure our own uncertainty and allow ourselves to be surprised, and having humoristic approach towards our experiences helps us to see things from different angle of perceptions. It's best not to take ourselves too seriously so we can meaningfully laugh at everything that can express moments of sparkling creativity...which is "the sun of the Self shining" in which we may provide healing or provoke wonder. When we share our stories we give value of passing something to think, to talk, to pause in reflection and acknowledgment of our common humanity, to share strength and weaknesses and learn from it... I love your stories. Enigma2
