I would host a large dinner.My son who is no longer with me would be thereand many of the people I love and or admire that I rarely see.I would find a way to invite homeless and people alone to join us.Plenty of food for all,but even more everyone mixing an listening to one another and hopefully we would leave having learned something.Many smiles,lots of photos snapping and someone to help me clean up the mess when it's all over. Since 18 I had always dreamed of a large country house,husband,8 kids,eventually grandkids all sitting arounfd the table sharing.Instead I sit alone and watch tv for company as I eat.Funny how we never know how life will turn out for us.
I respect men who are good,caring,decent,moral,kind,etc.If that's a nice guy then I know many and respect and care for them all. for the good guy!!!!!!!!!
While enjoying your turkey tommorow,take time to think of those innocent people and be thankful for what you have.That's if your from the USA.If from elsewhere please join me in prayer or in sending positive thoughts to all those who are in the middle of all the kaous going on.Not demanding folks,asking.I know I have a very good reason to feel blessed today,I am not hearing guns or bombs going off in my neighborhood. please!!!!!!!
As a bumper sticker I qnce had on my car said,"I may be getting older but I refuse to grow up".It's the truth,then where would the fun be in living? nana nanana
I'm having a great night other than CS,but if I was down or bored or feeling lonley,reading these replies would definitely be a pick me up.Like said in opening it can be something small that can make you feel good or have a bette day/night. for all who had a positive experience.It doesn't have to be winning the lottery to make your mood even better,just seeing what happens around you by people to people.Or in this thread hearing people.
I try to be positive everyday.Some days are better than others.Today I saw a young man about 17 stop and help an elderly lady put her groceries in her car.Made me smile.A neighbor saw me coming out to car,now we had heavy snow today,he cleaned off my car before finishing his.Nice people doing little things to help another can make a so-so day a good one. My opinion anyway.
5 and dime stores wih wooden floors malt shops the Beatles first American appearance on Ed Sullivan pop bottles made of glass and returned for deposit butcher shops milkman delivery to your house twiggy hoola hoop the twist Chatty cathy and Bestsy Wettsy kick the can oh the good old days as my grandma would say.
smoke alarm going off for no apparant reason,I can't get up to reach it in hall.Neighbors attached condo before checking with me,called fire dept.,4 am.
working 3rd shift coming home early about 5am and key broke in door lock,other door bolted from inside.
many times awake during night to sound of cat fight,unfortunantly 2 of mine in the hall.
I have many only mes as people have said but not during wee hours of the morning,probably most that happen at that time have happened to others too I would think.
None of the above.Whose to say what is normal as far as being attracted to someone.To each thier own.Personally as I have said on here before,the outer shell(physical looks) are not a priority to me.I am attracted to good humor,real smile,compassion for others,courteous and more.Like Indy said,as you get to knowsomones good side,it makes them physically attractive whether others agree or not.
ditto Mark and Shelly.Only I add that I still love those who don't treat me well also.I may not respect them and surely don't want to be around anyone who treats me in a negative way.When I say I love them,I mean I want the best for them away from me and that being a humanitarian and a person who tries my best to follow God that they are humans and while I may hate words or deeds done to me by whoever,I don't hate the person themselves. I have been on here reading the 3 ? threads about religion topic.I have avoided comment as I don't feel I have anything to say or didn't till now.I always profess my love of my personal Savior and most know I am a Christian and beleive strongly in prayer.However I feel the thread comments are not being done totally as a mature disscusion but instead,a game of who can come out looking right or the smartest.Also while I condone atheists speaking thier minds in forums as is everyones right,I still don't think a atheist or scientific view should be under Religion thread.Under misc. or if it is,under advice.There is no one here I harbor any animosity towards.I agree to disagree and respect anothers right to voice an opinion.I was told that the other day I was called a whiner when I said this :).I hope the bickering stops soon,never use to be such comments made or threads started as in the last 2 months.I enjoy reading humor,what's new with other members,and good things.Nuff said from me.As always peace out to all. or to you all.
