Aa, i had a good visit last May. I have worries that I won't see my parents alive again. it's tough to make it out there. i'm glad we had a nice time, good memories, pictures and walks. old hurts mended and peace made. we are fortunate to have that. some families don't. <3
i've been reading your blogs, so i'll combine. i think it's fine to make the first move. with that being said, i would never mention money. if i were to accept money for assistance, i would not do it until i knew the person well and both parties knew there were no strings attached. i would hate feeling obligated to someone who claimed to give out of the goodness of their heart.
as for responding to mail. i rarely if ever do. if i sent a mail, i wouldn't expect a response either. you shouldn't consider it rejection or feel bad about it because neither parties know the other.
i think you're a nice person. reach out to those you like, or stay in touch somehow. i have been in touch with a friend from years ago and it's like we never lost contact. as long as you have an email of this person...for the other folks, let go.
i thought organs were just a bunch of cells. i didn't know there were personality traits within the cells. there have been movies and books about such things. it sounds a bit superstitious to me.
i wish you safe travels. have a nice visit with your mother and enjoy your time with her. as for the coeds, i know Bravo is your wing man, and you have a fine assortment of ties, but, don't get your heart broken.
