If everybody could just keep focussed on their own lives and religion and leave others to their own devices....religion included....the world would be a much nicer place....but many choose to look at others instead of cleaning up their own backyards instead.....
Oh no...its definitely all related for sure...but I guess you cant just do nothing because it might cause problems with your enemies...that's no way to live and you can only deal with the fall out as it comes....
Thanks lou....that's the one thing people always seem to forget is that....yes they have the right to free speech up until it infringes upon anothers right.....other people have certain rights too not just the person speaking.....
I prefer someone who has dealt with their baggage.....maybe that's what the phrase really means....its all been unpacked and chucked in the recycling bin.....
Its not just about you gramps...they're probably wondering where you were and why you didn't keep in touch with them like any grand parent would the last 8 yrs....there is thing called hormones that actually make teenagers into little hormonal demons...why don't you try getting on their level for a change instead of complaining they aren't on yours...
I invested enough time for me it wasn't worth it to invest anymore...I wasn't looking to change anybody....I was simply looking to love and be loved...that didn't happen...so be it.....and definitely this....
"If not, let it go for all that love and energy would be best served to yourself or with someone who will appreciate you"
Then maybe the key is to get to know yourself just as well as she does and to see that value in yourself...it cant just be about her....its really about you and failing to see what she sees and only you can change that...start looking within instead of at her....yes it would be nice if marriages could last that long and her and I are still friends to this day....
My best friend of 42 yrs I like that...we both have our flaws but we remain friends and just accept that about each other...if you find yourself pushing a friend like that away then I suggest you do some soul searching and heal whatever it is in you that would cause you to do that...most of all make sure you're the same kind of friend.....
"I give up on placing expectations. Two years ago I probably found only one that I could relate to and though she still adds her two bits in the community on occasion offering her wisdom and horses I foolishly pushed her away. "
I would say this has something to do with it...ask yourself what you have changed between now and then...if you're still hung up on someone else...why would someone want to be second best?....
Yes I believe it's true...in most cases its a breach of her boundaries and the man failing to listen....it also signals that he doesn't care how she feels about it....so given those circumstances I don't blame her.....it screams "i only care about what I want and not what you want"
I don't think I could be anything but me and there is nothing that stops me from being me...mind you it took a lot of inner work and forgiveness on my part and that includes forgiving myself to get here....
