Men say women are complicated. I find men extremely complicated. I never know where I stand with them or what they will throw at me next.

At least, I know what you want right now. :)

“When sadness comes, just sit by the side and look at it and say, “I am the watcher, I am not sadness,” and see the difference. Immediately you have cut the very root of sadness. It is no more nourished. It will die of starvation. We feed these emotions by being identified with them.” Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh

I was told I was cold...H. Longfellow knows it's not so.

“Every man has his secret sorrows which the world knows not; and often times we call a man cold when he is only sad.”

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Coincidence

By Zig Ziglar, Creators Syndicate, November 2008

May 11, 1996, was a day of tragedy for many people. Domingo Pacheco was rushing to catch a flight out of Miami when the left-rear tire of his car blew out on the expressway. For more than an hour, he sweated under the hot Florida sun as he struggled to change the tire. When he finally finished the job, with the soot from the tire still clinging to his hands, he answered a call on his cell phone.

His mother was calling him, and she was overjoyed to hear his voice. Domingo, however, wasn't in such a good mood. He explained to his mother how a flat had caused him to miss his flight. At that point, she shouted: "Turn on your radio! The plane you were going to be on just crashed in the Everglades! I'm glad you had a flat!" Domingo Pacheco should have been aboard ValuJet Flight 592, but a flat tire saved his life.

The question is: Should he have been on the flight? The answer is, obviously, no. Was it one of those strange "coincidences" of life? That is, was it a coincidence, which some people describe as God's way of remaining anonymous, or was it simply that his angel was looking after him?

Most of us don't get too excited about flat tires or, for that matter, problems of any kind. It seems they always come at the wrong time and complicate our lives. But just as Domingo's flat, or "problem," was a lifesaver, who knows what the positive benefits might be when unexpected problems and difficulties are encountered?

The next time something unexpected happens to you, pause for a moment and ask yourself: "Is it really that bad, or is there a chance that what's happened might, in the long run, be the best thing that's happened to me in a long time?" Think about it. Take the optimistic outlook!

Hotdog anyone?

I need help...please do something. Send me something. Show me clearly.
I don't know what to do anymore. I can't keep going on like this.
Help me!

Bex

It was my sisters' birthday yesterday.
Not really good with the whole expressing of feelings, but you know I love you & you have tried to be there for me as much as I would let you. I pray that He gives you something really special this year, because I do know how much you give up everyday for Him. You deserve the best & I hope you find that!

You asked me if I would miss you. I told you I would.
I am surprised how much I miss you.
I just want to hear you talk, see you smile, your laugh, your confidence swagger as you walk naked around the room.

Time will take away the missing...till then your in my mind.

M.C.

Why I don't vote...there is no good choice.

Election Day

We stand today at a crossroads:
One path leads to despair and utter hopelessness.
The other leads to total extinction.
Let us hope we have the wisdom to make the right choice."
-- Woody Allen

I still haven't found my home...

...but I want to go to it.

Tears are the words my heart
uses to explain when even my
fake smiles can't cover up my pain.

Who ever said that misery loved company? Her misery did not love company. Her misery loved to be alone. Her misery threatened to bludgeon company.
–Francine Pascal, Fearless

Someday, god knows when, I will stop this absurd, self-pitying, idle, futile despair. I will begin to think again, and to act according to the way I think.

I am still undecided. I just don't see how this will all end, work out. It's so hard not knowing.

Waiting for you!

There are very few mistakes in life that can't be correct...if you've got the guts.

My New Baby

I finally bought a phone...first time in my life!
Took me weeks to decide what to get & then days to get it.

Tonight, There Is No One

No one feels close to the heart tonight.
Away from sight many magical lands call.
Dream after dream, palaces with open hands call.
But they are desolate inside.
No one feels close to the heart tonight.

Some song, some scent, some unbelievably pretty face.
Some passing promise, a hope's fleeting trace.
Gloomy memory, a sigh, faith, faithless plight
Nothing!
No one feels close to the heart tonight.

If your memory is with me, then whether you are near or far
Every moment, my wailing heart's shadow weaver you are
And if not, then no where, no one in sight.
No one feels close to the heart tonight.

As evening blurs into the night, my loneliness
sinks into my heart like a dead weight.
Lo! the moon rises with your remembrance.
Life feels friendly, compassionate.

If there is anything we have with us it's only this: the longings for some beloved, this agonizing bliss. In hopes of a rising sun, since a lifetime we have waited by a late-night candle flame's hiss.
