Whisper of Fall Oct 18, 2008 6:32 pm

The wind blowing through the curtains from the open window... to make us hesitate to for one second and enjoy the moment.

The scarecrows and pumpkins all on display.

The mums all golden and beautiful.

The color of the leaves changing daily.

The festivals and corn mazes, the children laughing and playing.

The cool weather, the whisper of Fall...

Just curious, but...

Why is that you ignore women who send you an email saying, Hi, ... and write a nice email showing their interest in you?

Why does it have to be so freakin' hard? When we were kids, the one (for that particular moment) seemed to land in front of your face without effort. Now, as we get older, the one seems to land everywhere but in front of your face.

I wonder, do we miss opportunities with a potential mate because we don't really take the time to appreciate the entire person, and only see the packaging?

I wonder, do we miss opportunties to enjoy a potential long term relationship because we have set goals that are too hard for anyone, including ourselves to meet?

Funny how we all want the "one," yet we all find ways to avoid the one. What a contradiction.

Reality Checks Sep 11, 2008 6:02 pm

Reality checks are those annoying things we all get hassled by. You know the ones I'm talking about...

the light bill
the water bill
the gas bill
the mortgage
the cable or satellite bill
the car payment
and any others you might have.

Is it not odd how the minute you think things are going smoothly, you get bitten by reality checks? Just when you think you are getting ahead the damn mailman delivers the next reality check... and you realize that the month has flown by and now you are preparing for this month's reality checks.

Damn those things we all love to have, but hate paying for...

Lesson Learned Aug 17, 2008 8:37 pm

For over two years, I have been trying to tell myself I am the person who can handle anything life throws my way. For the most part that has always been true, at least until today.

I hate asking for help because I've always been the strong one. Funny, but life had different plans for me. For some time now I have been trying to learn how to do it all. Maintain all the house maintenance, the yard, the fence repairs, and anything else that needed to be done after my divorce. I tried to do all this by myself because I was too embarassed to say, I need some help.

Well, today, after a few stitches, an embarassing visit to the ER, I learned that there are things I will have to learn to ask for help. While it seems foreign to me, I am sure I can't afford to get stitches all the time, and well, it is embarassing to tell the person in triage that the reason you are there is because you were trying to use a weedeater that was too heavy and that it cut your pants and dug into your leg.

I guess I didn't realize the hardest lesson learned in surviving a divorce was the one where you have to learn to depend on others for things that were once done by someone else. I have no idea if it is because I thought it would make me look weak to ask for help, or if it was a I can do it all mentality. Either way, it was a costly lesson in more ways than one.

I guess today was another way life teaches me, I can't do it all, even if I think it is possible. That there are times where you really do have to ask someone else for help.

Wonder which is worse, believing you can do it all yourself for fear of being weak, or if not asking for help and getting to pay a visit to the local medical facility and have a doctor look at you in disbelief?

I guess we all learn lessons differently, to bad they include stitches sometimes. Today I learned that I can't do it all and, well sometimes you have to ask for help whether you want to or not.

Sometimes the greatest feelings in the world can be the hardest. What do you do when you love someone who can never give you all you need to be happy? Are you sacrificing a relationship that is otherwise perfect? Are you being selfish because you need more?

How do you love someone you know you can never truly have, no matter what?

I'm wondering if any of you have ever been in love with someone - who admittedly loved you back, but both of you knew it was not enough to sustain a lasting relationship?

My heart is telling me enjoy the ride and see what happens, but my head is telling me I'm in over my head and it has no good outcome.

Any advice?

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!

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

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...
