ma dear Miss Candy, I have always prefered to nibble and thereby extend the many pleaures of savouring the many delights a lady has to offer...(and with taking a cavalier bow)...act 1:scene2... %)
Why, Miss Candy, I do declare!; would you care to step out unto the honeysuckle covered veranda and partake of some ice cold Mint Julips while I inform yaw'll of your many charms... %)
Biloxi ! I loved that town, just fantastic, met lots of wonderful people down ther and over in Gulport! anyways, regarding women: all the women that I work with and around range from their early 20's to their 50's; the average being 30's to mid 40's. I feel a lot more comfortable with those because of their level of maturity, level of humour level of attitude towards Life and most definitely their intelligence! So, if I were interested at all, they would be within that range; also for myself only, I have found that older and "a lot older" women drink too much, are too soured on Life in general; I haven't met but a couple that were not; that alone is not an attraction; it's a repellant.But, I've given up looking.
You might want a totally separate wing...in a trailer trash yard called The Innane Psycho Asylum...seems that some are long overdue for it and are begging for one by their ravings of mindless drivel...
Gee, Gosh! and here I had always thought that one's wife or girlfriend was supposed to be my "toy" to play with and be interested in; my work, my hooby/passtimes always came after..umm did I miss out on something..? No! They were far more "captivating"!! %)
In a simple answer, yes, most assuredly, and as Lion just said, some for positive ways and negative ways; some do the exact opposite, some follow the same way as their parents(perhaps this is why no studies on orphans and their marriage patterns are done, no parental examples?)
Most of the "old" toys were built far better than the hightech junk now and so many need batteries, which to me, takes away from a child's creative imagination. When my children were smaller, I'd go to a lot of yard sales looking for the types I had. At one I found a complete set of the Lincoln Logs, totally intact, original box and all.At others we found all sorts of neat wind uo robots, cars, dolls etc. all made in the 50's and 60's. Most are still ok.and now are packed away for their children hopefully; even some of mine like the solid metal soldiers and knights and others I played with. Quite a few box loads of nice memories. %)
Good For You phoenix!! That IS the spirit! That is The only way to live; Never Say Die! or curl up like some mangy dog in a corner! Hell Ive met Indians in the Villcabamba 100 years old; one could still wear out a 16 year old girl!(that is their way of life) "old" men with hardly any wrinkles, fit and healthy and one hell of "an attitude"! (not to mention, of course, diet). I still ride a few miles to and from a job on my bike and take walks, my son still complains that I walk too fast and he's 14. I'd be up for another trip down the Amazon, Indian ambushes and all. I like to think of it as haing both "an attitude" and "an altitude". I've survived a lot in a few different armies and wars; came out in one piece, so believe me I don't buy this "old age" crap, in one we had legionnaires almost 60 who could still do force marches through jungle or desert and we much younger could barely keep up. No don't give us this old age at 50 and falling apart, meds and the like; that is a state of dying in the spirit, the mind and the heart; hell, just crawl into a coffin and close the lid!
As with most coups, revolutions, take-overs, even underground resistance movements, the military is the vital key to reclaim a country; without some backing a revolt cannot go forward. Many Americans hoped for the US soldiers returning defeated in Vietnam by their own Govt. would stage a coup that any European army would have and have done before, but instead, they all quietly went back to their small towns and farms and yes, those glorious symbols of Govt. benevolence, the inner city ghettos and remained silent. Now the soldiers are comming home again by the thousands, wounded, scarred in many ways for life; used and abused and dead...they as anyone have a right and perhaps a higher duty to band together and resist; to take back a country not really theirs or yours anylonger. Those soldiers need to be recruited again, but this time for something you really believe in and want strongly enough to risk all, as did the people on Ruby Ridge... and all the other places left out of news stories so as to not encourage more resistance...
when some people hear that from someone, they are also hearing that they are falling on them and step aside, with never a twinge of guilt at what they have induced, encouraged and in some cases seduced...the more "games" we play, the more people we hurt...
Those "old-fashioned values" sound awfully familiar...If I hadn't finally given up all hope and resigned myself to ending up a bitter,lonely old fool, I'd have said, even up to just a few years ago, that ,Yes, to me those simple yet priceless values were what I cared about and had looked for. Some find them, some do not; some are lucky, others are not. So is Life. No one promised us rose gardens...
Lionhearted, a vast world of pains has opened up on you by someone wanting desparatly, hoping sedperatly that you will be able to help him form a "new and better" him, perhaps...he is putting all his trust, his world into your hands..he trusts you enough to take this step, that is quite obvious. A neutral observer would advise to "proceed with extreme caution" You may have some serious choices and decisions to make here as to, for one, how far do you wish to go with this; how deeply; will you be able to cope? If he is finally at the stage that he wants and needs to open, the last thing to do is outright rejection; you can imagine why...he should be encouraged to enter some form of professional therapy. This could prove very delicate. If you feel comfortable with his opening to you, then go with it; his time to release the pains of loss, repressed emotions etc, is now; he wants to let go and yet hold; it'll be like a real struggle back and forth for a while. Ask AB AB, she is a nurse; could be her ground. Good luck Lionhearted.
AHA! A new patient! ; er pardon me, I mean a new member! Welcome to the asylum, uh, I meant Colloseum, no, Forums! Yes, that's it! The inmates are terrific, jump right in!
