RE: new relationship bothering someone..

I believe that jealousy was being talked about earlier-that's why I felt like posting the short blip. I'M not confused about the thread, unless there's some sarcastic implication. (I DON'T get sarcasm--that I WILL admit!)

RE: the meaning of life for you is?

It sounds like you are on the right track in many areas of your life, certainly more so than many others. I have noticed on this club that many of the members have a healthy sense of others' feelings, which to me, is a great step toward where we all should be. A poor attitude toward others is only reflective of a poor attitude toward oneself. On your journey, and we are ALL on one, when you recognize that you might be "hurting people", as you said, think what you might be feeling if that person said/did what you are, or about to do or say. It could save you from hurting someone's feelings, and as you might have guessed, that's the cornerstone of getting along. (We do not really need to always tell people what we really think, and if it's negative, we usually regret it or at least wish we had done it differently). Kindness and understanding go much farther than always having this need to be "frank".

RE: new relationship bothering someone..

Worry, Regret, Jealousy, (usually) all for nothing. Wasted energy, these three.

RE: new relationship bothering someone..

Oh, how I intend to, lovie! You are so cute, dear.

RE: new relationship bothering someone..

You are making me laugh, sweetheart. Thanks!

RE: one reason..............

uh, the dog ate my homework?

RE: Say Something..Anything thats on ur mind..

Right On Again!!!Jeepers, you are doing so well with not smoking. How is it going now? I'm guessing you are feeling better already.

RE: LIMERICKS

I've got a limerick but I'm not sure if it would be appreciated. It's not "dirty" (not as bad as the Aussie Lass one, anyway!) but some would be a little grossed out by it. I'll only tell it if y'all egg me on. Takers? (it made me smile, but I have an eclectic sense of humor...)

RE: the meaning of life for you is?

I really like the way you put this. Recently the idea of loving someone else is dancing around my head quite a lot, so for the moment that seems to be very important. One of the things that I would really like to get across to others is that we are all different, unique, FOR A REASON. For the longest time in this country, and elsewhere, if one didn't fit fairly well into the status quo, then there was a problem. I think most of you know what I'm talking about. Yes, I do believe in God very very much; He made us all different, and vastly so, because that's what He wanted to do. I hope everyone who reads this understands what I am trying to say.

RE: LIMERICKS

That was good--here's mine:

There was an old cowboy who was awful
And I don't mean to boast
But every sun up at breakfast
He'd eat rattlesnakes on toast
For sauce he'd use the venom
To quell the hunger pangs
Then wipe his chin with the rattle
And clean his teeth with the fangs.

RE: If people are so perfect.....

I'm O.K. Check mail, Love.

RE: If people are so perfect.....

Exactly right. Our response to someone demanding the "411" from us should be, "sure, just as soon as you give me all YOUR 411". That should settle it. In respect to this posting, though, the gist of it is people who deliberately paint a picture of themselves that does not exist. Now, that's not acceptable. (it took me awhile, but I understand the difference in what the post is about).

RE: If people are so perfect.....

You are gorgeous! And thanks for giving J (you know who) good advice and cheering him on with his stopping smoking. I can tell you have a good heart. (and no, that's not a line, dear!) PROMISE

RE: If people are so perfect.....

Hey slow down, there will ya? O.K. We're talking about people who out and out lie (create an online persona). My mistake for not 'getting' the clarity of that. YES, it is uncool to present oneself in a completely different light than what you honestly know is true. I wholeheartedly agree. But trim your nails will ya? They're a little sharp, there girlfriend. (oops--just being honest, you know)

Oh come on and laugh a little

RE: If people are so perfect.....

In a perfect world, this would certainly be the case. I do believe that being truthful is best, as you point out. I do think that there are times when doing so isn't received so well. How about the wife/partner who asks, "Do you look at other women? Do you think they're beautiful? Do you fantasize about having an affair? etc.... now do you really think she's going to feel great about his honesty if he answers 'yes' ? Do you see what I mean here?

RE: If people are so perfect.....

"....because I'm really smart, and I'm really really handsome, and DARN IT! people LIKE me"!(remember Saturday Night Live?) Yes, dear, you are correct. However, if you read the 'help lines' for this, it is suggested that we put our best foot forward, highlighting our assets and down playing our, uh, liabilities? I know what you mean about honesty, and I agree. But who's going to say, "I'm impatient with other people, highly opinionated, and still tied to my mommy's apron strings"? Virtually no one. And yet this type exists in the millions. And who would appreciate such honesty? No one. So what are we going to do? We write about our qualities, not our crud.

RE: Witnessing

Wonderful story. (I have lived one full year longer than is expected for over half the people who have my illness. I feel very, very fortunate. I know exactly what you are feeling. Thank you for the sweet inspiration, dear friend).

RE: Its weekend..... Lets Chat about ........

He's right. Keep alert, folks. (I've had four IM attempts in the last couple of minutes. They are looking for people who are currently on line. Be smart. (I answered one, then thought better of it. Members know how to use the provided E-mail. Say NO to I M's. TRUST ME ON THIS.

RE: Its weekend..... Lets Chat about ........

when I look into your big brown eyes, and there it's plain to see, it's time we learned about the facts of life, starting from A to Z, uhhhh let me tell ya 'bout the birds and the bees...

RE: Its weekend..... Lets Chat about ........

No punchline, just the wind that shakes the barley. Who's peeps?

RE: Its weekend..... Lets Chat about ........

Howdy--going to try this once again. Since all my threads and posts seem to get pulled, I'll keep this very middle of the road. Nice to see some of you on here again. I got up this morning and made Leatherbritches. Anyone out there know what those are? Green beans, onions, beef stock and bacon grease simmered down to where the beans fall apart on the spoon. A simple Southern dish, but so so good. I went to the Antique Mall to see about retro cookie jars and canisters. Saw a Barbie lunch kit for only 18.00 bucks (list is 225.00) guess the times are hard even for old Barb. Have been talking to a guy on e-mail, striking up a good friendship, it seems. The beach and bay here are as wonderful as ever, getting a bit chilly at night. Our Fall here is usually warm in daytime. Mom's still working full time and looking top shelf in her Brit tweeds-(75). Gotta dash off home in about 15 minutes. (let's see if this one holds up! )

RE: Crazy

Well now I really don't understand, Robert! seems like it's not locked, even tho it says it is.

RE: Crazy

since the topic here is "crazy", I'm going to interject this: all the latest threads I've participated in have now been locked. I'm so frustrated with this--contacted CS staff just a minute ago. They have in the past told me that it's 'not me', still I can't for the life of me understand. I really don't get this, and a few other members have written to me with the same wondering. Just what is up with this? I understand that the moderaters can do as they like, but what for? I WAS having a good time, guys, and it's great to hear from all of you and get such diversified feedback. Now I feel it's too much work to be fun anymore.

Here Kitty Kitty....where in the sam hill are you? haven't heard from you for a bit.
