| Just for you..... |
Aug 2, 2008 10:03 pm
74 Views | For some time now, I have been written to by a person who thinks I need a personality transplant. Funny, but this man has never really met me, talked with me, or shared a conversation with me. He is miffed for not wanting to date him.
First off, we are all entitled to decline an invitation. Not everyone on here is going to want to be with us. Not everyone on here is going to share the same attraction and, therefore, there will be the rejection from time-to-time. It is a fact of life that we are all different and we all seek similar things, but there are no guarantees on here you are going to get a yes to every request for a date, to be a friend, or anything else.
We are all entitled to say no for whatever reason we choose... my reason for not wanting to share anything with you is because you are rude, condescending and often wrong about my friends and me in general. I do not like to be told I need a personality transplant just because I chose not to date you...
So just for you... I still am not a Dixie Chick and I am still not going to date you!
As for my transplant... well, when someone of value tells me I need one, I'll consider it only then... but of course, you won't be one of them! | |

| Loving Someone |
Aug 2, 2008 9:52 pm
60 Views | They say the greatest gift a person can ever receive is the gift of love.
If this is true, why do so many people ruin it by harsh, angry words? Why do they ruin it with bitterness, affairs, lies, or worse?
If we are given the gift of love, a great gift, why is it so hard to realize like any other gift, it has to be treasured to continue to shine?
Do have someone that loves you? If you are lucky, their gift of love, it deserves the best thank you... the care of a treasure where you keep it polished so that it always shines. | |

| Laugher and Sunshine |
Jul 27, 2008 10:14 pm
98 Views | The laughter and sunshine of a friend makes life so much better.
The laughter shared with you is so special to me. You make the laughter an important part of my life.
The laughter you share with me during my embarrassing golf strokes is even more fun... it's priceless to see you smile at my missed shots.
The laughter you share with me at the movies over funny lines or dumb stories is priceless... as long as we can see it together.
The laughter you share with me when I say or do something which cracks you up - makes my day... I enjoy seeing the smile on your face when you realize it is just because that I did whatever it was that made you laugh.
More than anything the laughter we share when we tease each other mercifully, it is something I look forward to each day...
Best of all, the laughter we share is the sunshine of a great friendship and one that I am most grateful for. You are the sunshine of my life when all else seems out of control.
You are the laughter and sunshine of my life... | |

| To a Friend of a Friend |
Jul 27, 2008 9:57 pm
119 Views | I know you are in pain and that you feel alone. You are feeling like life is over and that you can't do anything anymore. The harsh truth is... you still have a life worth living.
I too, had things thrown my way in life. For a few months I sat in silence and anger. I had the biggest pitty party you could ever imagine going. Funny thing about that party, the only person attending it was me. In the end, I realized thanks to the help of friends, that my pitty party was doing me more harm than good.
After cleaning up from the party, I realized that yes, something were different, but I still had my life. I still had great friends, and more importantly, I had the choice to live the best possible life I could until things got better.
Sure, I still had bad days. There were days, I could barely get out of bed, but the other days, I did all I could to have the same life I had before. Yes, there were limitations due to surgeries and medications, treatments, physical therapy and fears, but reality was, the days I tried to live as close to normal as I could, the less my pitty party affected me. I found that a day doing anything to avoid my pitty party was a day better spent in getting well.
The pitty party really only served to make things harder. I was in control of how that party made me feel. When I let it go, my life slowly returned to normal. It was soooo much better when I realized that yes, I had to take some things easy, but I still could go to a movie, could still read books, could still listen to music, could still have friends over, could still laugh, could still sit on the porch watching the sunset... my life was still the same. The only thing different was some days I needed a little more rest to get well.
I pray that you will give up the pitty party and allow life to continue. Yes, days will be hard, but you are stronger if you continue to live the best possible life - even on bad days. You need to see that as long as you can make choices, you still have a life - one worth living. The choices may have changed, but you still have them. The only difrerence is you allow yourself to heal and your body to get well.
Think about what I'm trying to say and if you need to hear it from me personally, your friend will tell you how to get in touch with me personally. You have more to live for than you realize. I pray you give yourself a chance to do just that. | |

| Your Gift to Me |
Jul 22, 2008 9:02 pm
108 Views | In a world of unsettling times, I have been blessed with a unique friend. She brings a smile and a laugh to my life everyday. While it is true we've not met face-to-face yet, she gave me the greatest gift any friend could ever give me.
She gave me the gift of unconditional trust, laughter, shared stories, and a life worth enjoying again. The gift she gave me is worth more than anything money could ever buy. It is a shining star, one that makes both of us enjoy what we have in our lives.
While the gift she gave me is rare, she herself is a rare gem and someone I can't wait to meet one day. No amount of money could ever take away her kindness to me in a time of need.
She believed in me when I didn't believe in myself and that gift has lifted my spirits and provided me with joy, happiness and relief to have friends like her.
Only us will know who she is and what she gave me, but we all know some gifts that are given with the heart far outweight any gift purchased and wrapped in big fancy packages with red bows on them.
Tonight, I want to send her a shining star and let her know how special a friend she really is. She gives unselfishly of her time and life to make other's happy. She is unique and beautiful not only outside, but inside where it really counts.
Thank you for everything you've done for me. My life is special because of you. | |

| I apologize first, but |
Jul 22, 2008 10:28 am
212 Views | I apologize in advance for this blog, but...
I was unable to get online for several days and when I came back it was surprising to see so many negative blogs about others. I guess somewhere in my mind, I thought this was a place to share a part of your life with another human being. I'm not saying everyone has to agree with you or even like you, but can't we all be civil to each other at least?
Does it do any good to slander another for the sake of making you feeling better? Does it do any good to constanty pick at a certain blogger because you find it funny and a way to make them get upset?
Think about this... if you are inclined to always attack others on here, for the sake of being mean, you will get the reputation of being ugly, spiteful and not worth anything. If you are inclined to be opinionated in a good way, you will be respected and you will get a fair respond, even from those you have differing view points on.
However, being down right mean and nasty just to have fun,,,, you are the worst and take away the good intentions of the FF site - to join people in friendships and possibly more.
So, in the future, how about you don't respond to a blogger if you feel the need to be nasty instead of opinionated, the rest of us will be more likely to respect your divergent opinions and not come to dislike you.
Enough said... I like the people who have shared their lives with me, and I hate to think that anyone of them are more important or better than anyone else out there sharing... even those I have differing views on.
So go ahead and blast me now... | |

| Life is a journey... |
Jul 17, 2008 11:10 pm
230 Views | Life is a journey. Today we take a right and end up with laughter at the end of the day. Tomorrow, we plan to take the main road and greet things head on, and end up in a dead end.
Then we find a long and winding road, one filled with laughter, tears, joy, sorrows, and great friends. This winding road leads us to who we really are, not the person we pretend to be.
Only you can determine your destination, and only you can decide if it was a great one. However, if you don't decide anything, you get to the end of the journey and realize you have regrets.
I pray you take life's journey with no regrets. | |

| The Belief It Can Never Happen To Me |
Jul 15, 2008 11:07 pm
248 Views | Ever notice how we all go around believing the bad things that happen will never happen to you? Well, I for all the wrong reasons, took things for granted until two nights ago.
I attended trivia and games night at a place I've gone regularly for over ten years. My friends and I were having a good time. We were so engrossed in our own jolly laughter and fun, we ignored the man who came in and sat down next to us.
With my back at an angle to him, my draft beer on that side, I didn't pay him much attention. We exchanged a few pleasantries and I went back to the trivia. About 1/4 of the way into my beer, I felt ill and odd. My friends made sure I got to my car and I headed home.
Before I got in my driveway, I realized something was really wrong. I had not drank enough to feel so out of it , yet I could barely hold my head up. Three hours later I woke up. I have no recollection of those three hours and I barely remember getting home.
The stranger had obviously put something in my beer. The only reason, I didn't fall victim to worse was because I immediately realized I was ill and left. I had not drank enough for it to take full effect Thank God.
For all my life, I never thought it could happen to me because I was always so cautious. I realize now how very easy it is to become victim to those using the date rape drugs.
Do whatever you have to do to protect yourself. Never let your drink out of site and always leave with someone you trust. Never doubt you can become a victim, you can and it happens everyday in all the places you wouldn't think it does.
I no longer foolishly believe it can't happen to me. It can and it did. PLEASE! PLEASE, DON'T MAKE MY MISTAKE... | |

| I Miss You |
Jul 13, 2008 8:27 pm
271 Views | Until recently, I don't think I truly understood what missing you really meant. I always thought it was something someone said for the sake of having something to say without having to say I love you or I need you. Worse, it was just a casual whatever thought people used just because.
Now, I know that saying to someone you miss them, it really is signficant. Missing someone can be a lover, a spouse, a close friend, an old friend, a parent or a sibling. The missing part is that you really do enjoy time you have with that person, no matter how much or how little you spend together and miss it when they are not around.
Missing you really means, I think of you often and wish we had more time together. Missing you really means, I hope you are well. Missing you really means, don't forget to call.
But more than anything, missing you really means, I'm glad you are part of my life and I wouldn't want it any other way.
So, at the end of the day...
I miss you. | |
