RE: Who is for a Seachange or Treechange...?

Yup for me it is the ideal. Little bits of everything at hand...(counting beach sand as dessert) ... hehe

Having lived in countless places along 3000 miles of coastline and inland 4000 miles or so I can pretty much say I have experienced most everything in nature there is to experience with one exception that I would also like to have an experience in, that being true rainforrest with a 350 foot high canopy that is in and of itself an ecosystem...

I'll get to that one day too though I will enjoy just a visit to there and likely would not live there longer then a year maybe if I found a nice village of tribal people to live with, otherwise a couple weeks would do me fine.

Thought you said you were an old bat? now your a young fart?

*runs like mad to escape before getting a shoe to the head!!

RE: my first grandchild...Emily Brooke

Congrats!! I got my first one last year and got to meet her last Dec... is an amazing thing... well was for me, just kind of gave me that feeling of ... oh.. I don't know... fulfillment is about the closest I can come I guess... Just tons of pride in my son, and his girl, gratitude of being a part of it all, etc...

Wish you the best!

RE: Who is for a Seachange or Treechange...?

More to the thread then my previous...

I have lived in the high snow capped mountains, I have lived in the plains where the grain looks like an ocean there is so much as far as the eye can see. I have lived in the forrest and have lived by the pacific ocean, I have lived within the dessert both of low elevation and high.

I have lived in cities of over 12 million people and in areas so sparse that the next neighbor was well over a mile away, and every manner of town inbetween. Of all of these places I have been and seen the one that always welcomes me as though it was always my home has been near the ocean.

As long as I can smell the sea I feel at home and more at peace than any where else. There is one area here in the US that offers not only the ocean but also rich forrest and mountains all within a few miles of each other as well as a couple average size towns of 50,000+ people within an hour drive.

That to my mind is the closest I seen to heaven on Earth in my own mind, at least so far... I would like to see Peru and the costal areas of South America sometime as various online tours and such I have taken definitely spark my interest for the areas.

But I have MUCH more desire leading me elsewhere right now, so Peru can wait! hehe

RE: Being a Single Parent

You're correct they don't have to defend themselves... but that goes both ways... He does not have to belittle and degrade them when they do describe their situation either.

Just saying... ok now I am back to yucky math... yet still it seems better then this at the moment.

RE: Being a Single Parent

If that is the case then his beliefs are such that he blames women here in this very thread for not making their marriages work and that each of them who have been single parents are at fault for being such. Not to mention he is stating such things in a very sarcastic and derogatory manner with eye rolling smilies backing up his personal feelings toward any other reason being offered as to how things end up as they do in many cases.

To have and hold a solitary belief that leaves no room for exception is to be close minded, judgemental, and in that singular belief at least arrogant as well. I have to be honest and say I have not seen a debate happening here, but rather a man who will not listen to anything a woman says regarding being a single parent because in his mind it has already been set in stone that it is the woman's fault, and is all to happy to insult, and degrade, any woman who tries to offer alternative reasons for situations.

Just my own thoughts shared on what I saw when I read through the thread for a break from math,

RE: Would you?

Yup

RE: Mexican Maid..

That was a good one

RE: Time to fly away

Take care Ras, wish you all the best.

RE: two crocodiles...........lol

Good one.. same for Attorney eating croc's

RE: Opinions and advice really appreciated

The "easy to say" answer I would offer for the situation described is simply, the sender of the e-mail should not carry a burden of guilt for the other persons actions, no matter what those actions may be.

As a person who often finds that very difficult to actually DO, I would simply offer that it appears you did all you could do to be the persons friend and tried to be there for them even though you felt pushed away. Try your best to see that, and even ask yourself if it is true.

Sometimes I have found by going over what makes me feel guilty I end up discovering there was something I myself overlooked or missed that helps to clarify the whole picture for me. This kind of thing usually sees me writing a letter of apology for missing what I had done that made the other person push me away, but it does eliminate the guilty feeling after that, for me. just sharing my own personal experiences with such matters.

Wish you the best in finding a way to let go of the guilty feelings.

RE: How often is your life in danger?

Add another to your list... you could have died laughing...

RE: How often is your life in danger?

LOL meh no competition in my mind, but sure sounds like a few of us have what could be called charmed lives. I just didn't want to make a huge ol posting so went with etc etc on the end to cover the rest LOL

RE: How often is your life in danger?

I forgot to mention I live in the same country as dusty so anytime she is in the kitchen apparently my life is in danger then too...



*teasing of course*

RE: How often is your life in danger?

Much more then your poll leaves options for. If I averaged it out to how many times have I been in situations that could have killed me it would likely come to more the one a day. Only because there have been many years in my life where there were countless times per day that could have seen my life being ended. I have been stabbed, shot at, been in 32 serious vehicle accidents (never as the driver) fallen from roof tops, tree tops, cliff faces, very high speed car chases, etc etc...

It is simply one of the reasons I take great pleasure in listening to the birds sing every day, why I notice people when they smile at me, it is what makes me able to face each day with happiness for another day given to me to be who I am and discover new things and experience the world around me one more time.

RE: Confession

awww I was betting it was Odesa.

RE: Gun Control - Yes/No? Don't Take My Guns!

uhm... hello.... Paradox... I am a non partisan, as in belong to no political party, individual in the middle of one of the most conservative states in the union... you think I socialize at all?? they would hang me!!




*jesting of course* Folks here have been very kind and still give a tip of the hat, a smile, and a wave when they see you walking down the street even when they don't know who you are.

RE: Gun Control - Yes/No? Don't Take My Guns!

The above was thrown at me and which was very hurtful to me and thats why I said I had no intention of setting foot in your country

Well it isn't just "his" country... I for one would welcome you to the North American continent as there are some places I think you would really enjoy seeing and I know some people who would love to meet you aside from just me. So please do not think he spoke on behalf of everyone who lives on this hunk of land that was here LOOOOONG before the American Government and will be here LOOOOOOng after it as well...

I am ashamed someone from the same country I live in said that to you, and can only humbly offer an apology from myself to you.
