I had a great relationship with this beautiful woman. I wanted to be a father figure to her 4 kids. I even proposed to her.
She broke it off with me because she had trust issues and could not trust herself to not cheat on me if we were togther.
After that, I had a series of unfortunate events that caused me to leave the state she was living in.
So, I packed up all my belongings and basically moved a couple of states away. On the last day I saw her, she told me that in the begining of our relationship, that I would leave her like all the other men in her life. I told her that she choose not to have me and that I could not bare seeing her being with someone and having the life I wanted with her and her kids.
We still talk once in awhile, she tells me her littlest one, 4 years old, still asks her where I am. That's rips into my heart a little, but I have moved past that and will always think of her and have her locked in my heart.
i never knew the power of a song until i heard the music playing the day mama passed on never knew what innocence was about til the first time i laid eyes on the face of a new-born child
chorus i never knew love no, i mean real love i never knew that kind of love til this moment with you
i never understood the meaning of home til i pulled into that old dirt drive after being gone too long i didn't know what serenity really was til i stopped one day to listen to that river gently run
chorus and i never knew love no, i mean real love i never knew that kind of love til this moment with you
i've known the hunger before tonight for other love i felt the yearning i felt the fire, in their touch this goes deeper than any thing i've ever known beyond my heart, clear down to my soul
i never knew what beauty could behold til you looked at me and i could see forever unfold oh you made me whole
chorus i never knew love no i mean real love i never knew that kind of love til this moment with you
til i was loved by you

"Love in the Library" - Jimmy Buffett
On the corner of Government and Bay Avenue The old doomsday fanatic wore a crown of kudzu Sirens where wailing in the gulf coastal heat And it seemed like the whole world was in forced retreat I paid no attention, revolved through the door Passed the newspaper rack on the worn marble floor Near civil war history my heart skipped a beat She was standing in fiction stretched high on bare feet
Love in the library, quiet and cool Love in the library, there are no rules Surrounded by stories surreal and sublime I fell in love in the library once upon a time
I was the pirate and she was the queen Sir Francis and Elizabeth the best there's ever been Then she strolled past my table and stopped at the stairs Then sent me a smile as she reached for Flaubert
Love in the library, quiet and cool Love in the library, there are no rules Surrounded by stories surreal and sublime I fell in love in the library once upon a time
She gathered her books, walked while she read Words never spoken but so much was said You can read all you want into this rendezvous But it's safer than most things that lovers can do Well stories have endings and fantasies fade The guard by the door starts drawing the shade So write your own ending and hope they come true For the lovers and strangers on Bay Avenue
Love in the library, quiet and cool Love in the library, there are no rules Surrounded by stories surreal and sublime I fell in love in the library once upon a time
Thank you. I understand the despair that can go on. Earlier this year, I also felt the need to end it all. I had everything mapped out, how they were going to find my body, how I was going to commit the suicide and even the point of who got what of my belongings.
At that dark moment, something inside of me told me to wake up and that I had a purpose still and to, if I can reach out, give hope to those that needed it.
I woke up, shook off the despair and laughed at what was going to take me down. My best friend even came over and watched over me to make sure I recovered. To this day, he is more of a brother to me, then a friend. I have never really told anyone what occurred with me, but since you shared your story, I felt it was right for me to share mine.
After that, my favorite qoute that I came up with was - Hug a single friend, you might have prevented a suicide.
So, I hope you have a wonderful holidays and I am here too, if you or someone needs to talk to.
Given the state of the internet, anything can be found with enough time and diligence to research.
There is actually an archival website that is grabbing inportant websites and backing them up for future research.
Some people think there is a certain 'Anonymity' by being on the net, but that was around 20 years ago.
That is why most corporations have a hidden clause when you get hired that you don't disclose anything through any media outlet, i.e. blogs, myspace, facebook and anything else that may be compromising to the company.
So, if you don't want to be known, don't hang out on the net. :smiles:
Batman: [has laid a snare-trap which yanks Flass by his leg 70 feet into the air] Where were the other drugs going? Flass: I never knew! I swear to God! Batman: Swear to *me*!
Rachel Dawes: Wait! You could die. At least tell me your name. Bruce Wayne: It's not who I am underneath, but what I *do* that defines me. Rachel Dawes: Bruce? [Batman turns and leaps off the roof]
Jim Gordon: What about escalation? Batman: Escalation? Jim Gordon: We start carrying semi-automatics, they buy automatics. We start wearing Kevlar, they buy armor-piercing rounds. Batman: And? Jim Gordon: And *you're* wearing a mask and jumping off rooftops. Now, take this guy: armed robbery, double homicide. Got a taste for theatrical, like you. Leaves a calling card. [Gordon presents Batman with a clear plastic evidence bag containing what appears to be a single playing card; Batman turns it over to reveal a "Joker"] Batman: I'll look into it. [turns away from Gordon and walks toward the rooftop ledge] Jim Gordon: I never said, "Thank you." Batman: [looks back to Gordon] And you'll never have to.
It was first sung by Rod Stewart, then made famous by Russell Watson for the TV show Enterprise
"Faith of the heart"
It's been a long road, To get from there to here. It's been a long time, but my time is finally here.
And I can feel a change in the wind right now. Nothing's in my way. And they're not gonna hold me down no more. No they're not gonna hold me down.
'Cause I've got faith of the heart. I'm going where my heart will take me. I've got faith to believe. I can do anything. I've got strength of the soul. And no one's going to bend or break me. I can reach any star. I've got faith, I've got faith, Faith of the heart.
It's been a long night, Trying to find my way. Been thru the darkness, Now I finally have my day.
And I will see my dream come alive at last. I will touch the sky. And they're not gonna hold me down no more. No they're not gonna change my mind.
'Cause I've got faith of the heart. I'm going where my heart will take me. I've got faith to believe. I can do anything. I've got strength of the soul. And no one's going to bend or break me. I can reach any star. I've got faith, Faith of the heart.
I know the wind's so cold, I've seen the darkest days. But now the winds I feel, Are only winds of change. I've been thru the fire, And I've been thru the rain, But I'll be fine.
'Cause I've got faith of the heart. I'm going where my heart will take me. I've got faith to believe. I can do anything. I've got strength of the soul. And no one's going to bend or break me. I can reach any star. 'Cause I've got faith, 'Cause I've got faith, Faith of the heart...
Faith of the heart. I'm going where my heart will take me. I've got faith to believe. And no one's going to bend or break me. I can reach any star. 'Cause I've got faith, 'Cause I've got faith, Faith of the heart...
One of my favorites and the video is great to watch.
Doug Stone - "I never knew love"
I never knew the power of a song, Till I heard the music playin', The day that momma passed on.
Never knew what innocence was about, Till the first time I layed eyes on the face, Of a newborn child.
I never knew love, No I mean real love, I never knew that kind of love, Till this moment with you.
I never understood the meaning of home, Till I pulled into that old dirt drive, After being gone too long.
I didn't know what serenity really was, Till I stopped one day to listen to, A river gently run.
I never knew love, No I mean real love, I never knew that kind of love, Till this moment with you.
I've known the hunger before tonight, For other loves. I felt the yearning, I felt the fire, In thier touch. But this goes deeper, Than anything I've ever known. Beyond my heart, Clear down to my soul.
I never knew what beauty could behold, Till you looked at me, and I could see, Forever unfold. Oh, you made me whole.
I never knew love, No I mean real love, I never knew that kind of love, Till this moment with you. Till I was loved, by you.
One of my favorite meals to prepare and it does take a few minutes.
I usually start prepping about an hour to hour and half before dinner time.
Main dish is Bacon wrapped beef or pork steak in bite size pieces skewered on toothpicks. I do dry rub marinate the meat for at least 4-6 hours. (This is quick to cook, so this almost last to put in the oven.)
Side dish is baked patatoes that have been cooked and then mashed into a baking dish. The topping is red onions and mushrooms cooked in butter and black pepper. (This is cooked while the patatoes are baking.) Once that is finished, I layer it on top of the patatoes and then add some bread crumbs and final topping of cheese. Bake this one for at least 20-35 mins. (This is the time you put the meat in at the same time.)
The other side dish is just mixed vegtables, drained, buttered and seasoned.
The dessert is a simple peice of can pear that is placed on a dessert dish. Now, what makes this different is that, I place a single marcino cherry, (That has been soaked in amaretto for at least 2-3 weeks), in the center of the plate. I place the pear backside up, with the cherry sitting in the center covered by the pear. I then spritz some chocolate syrup around the pear and drizzle a little bit on the pear. Giving it a dazzled look.
I know that this sounds extensive, but in reality it looks and tastes great for a simple meal.
From my experience. I married an older woman by 5 years, was with her for 6 years then divorced.
Second long term relationship was with someone 8 years younger then me, that lasted 5 years.
Then had an almost year long relationship with someone that was 3 years younger.
So, in a sense, it doesn't really matter the age, just how comfortable you are with that person.
I am 36 years old, I feel about 50 years sometimes, but my mind is still sitting around the mid 20's to late 20's era. So, I think I average about right in my true age.
By the way, this site is far friendlier then other places I have seen.
That was my point, The Titanic was built by people with no real common sense, they just wanted the biggest cruise ship out on the ocean, heck common sense went out the window when they took off some of the lifeboats, so they could have more space for folks to walk around on the top deck.
Noah had common sense to build something worthy, of course he had help from God.
It just proves that sometimes the brightest people aren't the ones to listen to.
Ok, you prove that smart people may not know as much as everyone else.
Nobody said smart people had common sense, that is the key line that keeps some of the dumb ones from killing themselves by accident, but at the same timeframe, I have met a lot of smart people with no common sense.
Final word -> Professionals built the Titanic, an amateur built the Ark.
It was in the middle of the night, no sleep, and possibly on cold medication.
If God gave man free will, to allow man to do what he wants, then why do we (Humans) feel the need to judge someone, if God didn't judge them, so what makes us better then God to judge someone.
One of the better lines from Ghostbusters and my favorite character.
Dr. Raymond Stantz: Gozer the Gozerian? Good evening. As a duly-designated representative of the City, County and State of New York, I order you to cease any and all supernatural activity and return forthwith to your place of origin or to the next convenient parallel dimension.
I have seen the new trailers and I am holding my breath. I am going to look upon it with open eyes. I have always enjoyed J.J. Abrams works, minus LOST, still trying to get into that one.
My favorite ST Movie, is a toss up between STWOK, STVH, or STFC.
If you understood the letters, welcome to being a Trekkie.
