Seventeen years had passed since their admission, supine, hands clasped. The moment paused and rewound so many times it has begun to slip and slur. Yet it remains solid, holding down everything from that time, forward. It is the ground to which any path may be traced.
It is far from nothing.
They were alone, their easy banter quickly escalating to hysteria. It was cast. He pressed his words between their laughter, hoping that the weight of their meaning may be buoyed by the mirth of the spell. As he had hoped, they had caught her off guard. And, she swallowed her response, continuing to laugh as if what he said was part of the folly.
It is easier to disbelieve.
Then he turned to her and she found the truth in his eyes. He wanted to take it back; he did take it back. While she held her breath and hoped that she could find her words, and that they wouldn’t sound ridiculous in the wake of her stay, he had let his words disintegrate.
The moment was gone.
In an instant, fear can consume you. It can make you refrain from disclosure, from the truth. You may hold your tongue or reel in its wag. Once it is fixed, fear can thrive in you for years, feeding off of regret, recycling into a fierce energy…anger.
It can destroy.
Or you may gain experience, chalk it up to another missed cue. You can allow yourself to forgive, provide another the opportunity to atone. Understand that when acknowledged, fear can guide you. You can turn it around and fear can provide additional strength to push you beyond previous expectations, to rise above limitations.
What has become of them?
Over 2500 miles travelled between the lines, their lives. They both stand as a movable marker for a moment, a slide rule for a decision. They are not broken, but both are damaged. Each has a life filled with family, friends, knowledge, achievements, and failed attempts. Of course, there is a portion of their lives of which the other is aware, a fraction that they speculate. But, neither knows that the other will occasionally recall that moment, reflecting on, but never regretting, its purpose.

heart full
Today on my way home from class, I stopped off at the petrol station for some petrol. I paid on my card which wasn’t a lot, and then as I was getting into my car, I saw an old man walking past the building. He had a red and green stripy jumper which was frayed at the ends. He was also wearing some jeans that were dirty and had holes all over.
I sat there and became intrigued by him because I didn’t know what he was doing, so as I sat there and watched him, he continued doing what he set out to do.
He walked past the trash cans and first picked out a cup with some drink still in it (one of the cups that you get from burger king that has coke in it). He then walked over to the next trash can and pulled out the end of a half eaten sandwich. In my shock horror, he ate it and then went to sit on the wall to drink the drink he had found.
I felt sad, I wanted to give him my last $4 that I had but I was told when I was younger that you should never give people money, you should give them something they need or can use because that way, if they had an addiction, they would not be able to use the money for their addiction. So I went into the shop and bought a chicken sandwich from their deli counter and then walked out of the building.
The guy was still sat at the wall drinking his drink so I walked up to him and asked him if he would like this sandwich. He thanked me and said that he was hungry.
I should of felt good after that, doing something for someone else but all I could think of is where his next meal will come from or where in fact he will sleep tonight.

Jennicula,
Thank you for sharing your story. Although it only appeared briefly, I was lucky enough to have caught it.
Once upon a time, for me, that was the best part of this place...having my words related back to me from another's perspective.
And it never mattered to me who said it, just that it meant something to the writer.

Don't let anyone tell you how to live your life. Hold your head up high and be proud of who you are. If you've had a shitty day and you feel like people just don't want you to be happy, and when you find yourself struggling to make it through the day, just keep on believing and keep the faith. Also, from personal experience, don't push people away. When they say they want to help and that they are there for you, let them in. Believe me, I know how fucking scary that thought is, but don't shut others out.

Sometimes, when you look back on stuff in your life, you know, the crap that makes you shake your head and say, "Holy shit, what the Hell was I thinking?" it's part of what makes you - you.
I'm not perfect by any stretch of the imagination. I have made small mistakes and really big, fucking scary mistakes. Would I change those mistakes and blunders?
No. Wanna know why?
Because they make me - me. They help make up the person that I am, what I've learned the hard way. Hopefully I've learned from my mistakes and have become a better person for it. And, hopefully I don't repeat those same mistakes. Although, sometimes I repeat variations of certain ones, but I'm working on that. :)

aloft
Blazing against the sun
like locusts,
samaras swarm the sky
and skitter to an earthly end,
dry
like clever words.
I want to make them fly up,
flip heaven upside down
and dance across the top of hell
and sing your thoughts
to the sound of thunder
that you love so well,
rip open the littered sky
and bathe in the light
or draw across the firmament
the blanket of the night.
In only a day they have
covered the ground,
their brief flight
yielding nothing permanent
on infertile land,
a fleeting moment of swarming glory
that calls to mind our own
short story:
Diamonds and petals,
the loom and the light,
the inkdark moon, foxfire marsh,
an open, waiting hand.
Clever winged seeds
of childhood reminiscent--
and like the idiot grown-up heart,
as stubbornly indehiscent.

Electric Blue
…today I saw a ulysses butterfly it was in our yard and settled to feed on our hibiscus. They really are fantastically beautiful things, the electric blue is amazing, however as they sit with their wings closed they are rather nondescript and dull. Sometimes people are like that, from the outside they seem unappealing but within there hides an amazing beauty for those lucky enough to see it. I hope you appreciate beauty in all things, and look for it perhaps where others miss it.

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL.
I read your post again and suddenly without warning memories of construction paper filled my head. I remembered all the lop-sided flowers my girls made when they were young. Bright blue, yellow and pink flowers that were cut out with blunt end scissors would fill the windows to decorate for Easter. An occasional bunny was attempted but those usually ended up looking like creatures from a horror movie. Flowers were so much easier. I can close my eyes and hear the paper being cut into petals. I can smell the Elmer’s glue squirted on in huge blobs to attach each misshapen petal to form the flowers. We had a huge arts and crafts box full of wonderful items just waiting for their imaginations to turn into something wonderful. In my mind I see my daughters, as they once were, small, blond little girls sitting on the floor surrounded by scraps of paper and other art supplies. They would create their masterpieces then proudly show each other. Oh and Lord the messes that would ensue if the glitter made an appearance. Now, the box is forgotten. I’m not really sure where it even is anymore. The few flowers so lovingly created that survived are faded and dusty and high on a shelf they sit. Time marches on, so many things get left behind.
Today was the first Easter I spent alone. I don’t think it really upset me until I remembered the construction paper flowers. Of course I understand that my daughters are growing up and have lives of their own. But understanding doesn’t make it any easier to accept. I miss my little girls in their frilly Easter dresses. I miss the laughter that filled the house when they found what the Easter Bunny left for them. And I miss making the damn flowers.

wake up raise now from your dusty dwell
death becomes you oh so well
always there when i need you
unlike the living you will never complain
never cause me any pain
always do what i tell you to
each night i am chanting with the wind
flirting with the moon oh sweet sin
my sleeping beauties leave your silent graves
cold hands my body gently embrace
always understand my needs
i only did what was best for us i guess
i sacrificed your lives for my happiness
always comfort when my heart bleeds
go go
In the graveyard that's where i'll be
in the graveyard you can come with me
we'll lie there foreverrrrr

Hi. :)

Goodnight. :)
Hi PH!!
nice to see you, hope you're well
Happy Belated Birthday xx
Hi:)
I'm a bit worried about Pickled Possum. I know she lives in New Zealand and was wondering if anyone knows if she's ok after the recent earthquake. I can't find her blog:(
Sorry I've not been around much lately. I've written many comments only to delete them before hitting the publish button. Not sure why. Well yes I do know actually, it's because I have absolutely nothing to say. Nothing!
*sigh*
I'm officially a boring old fart:(
Ummmm, let's see, I watched Bambi with little Rees the other day. It's just soooo sad. It gets to me every bloody time! Poor, poor Bambi:(
I was sat on the sofa with Rees on my knee. When Bambi goes looking for his mam I pulled the hood on my hoodie over my face and pulled the drawstrings tight. You could just about see my nose peeking out of the opening. I think Rees knew I was crying cos he pushed one of his sweets through the opening. Bless him.
Penblwydd hapus Paperheart:)
Hope everyone's well.
Cheerio.
The first time I heard Bambi, on a record (as children's books used to come with little records when I was a kid) I was surrounded by my fellow daycare buddies, eating yummy grilled cheese sandwiches at the dining table; when, just at the point in the story (the really really scary part!) where Bambi's mom gets killed in the fire... the kitchen sort of blew up.
I really hate Bambi.
Nice to see you, Welshie! I enjoy reading you, if it makes you feel any better! I would also like to know how PP is doing. If someone could please get a hold of her and let us know here, that would be much appreciated. Have a nice day, everyone. :D
And very a very Happy Birthday to PH! &hearts:
LOL, ♥
Thanks for the belated birthday wishes!
I'm officially an adult, and legal in Manitoba! <3 Hahaha.
Being 18 has definitely made me realize it is all downhill from here, I'm already in debt and starting at university tomorrow! Yiiiikes!
passing through again, hoping everyone is well and happy.
;xo
Hi all
hey welshie, anon, PH
I have heard from PP, she is fine as are all her family and friends, she isn't in Christchurch but some people she is close to are in that area and have no water or power (last I heard) and are in areas where there is a fair amount of damage to buildings, road impassable etc. There are still major aftershocks in the area (around 5's) and the army have the city center as a no go area, there is a curfew and a state of emergency is still in effect.
They are looking at buildings to see what is safe to save and what isn't, tragically a lot of very historic churches etc will have to be demolished it seems. Major other threat there is contaminated water from ruptured sewage lines and there are 2 confirmed cases of gastro yesterday. Main thrust at the moment is to keep the population safe and healthy but until the land movements stop it is hard to do anything.
PP has commented on my blog and you can reach her profile and thus her blog or email via her name on her comment, or if you locate a comment by her at Mayo's it will link you as well of course, if anyone wishes to contact her personally.
PH hope your university studies go brilliantly will be thinking of you and wishing you all the best
Anon 1:37. It's good to see you too:)
I've been struggling a bit after Gwen's death and didn't want to come here with my :( face. I'm working really hard to turn my :( into a :)
I'm getting there. Slowly.
Paperheart I hope you have a wonderful time at Uni.
Ergo thank you for letting us know about PP. I'm glad she's ok. I shall go to your blog and follow the link to PP's if I may.
No worries Welshie, I'm sure she'd love to hear from people.
It is always hard to manage after something like that too, so don't worry about not being about. It is nice to know you're ok, so take as long as you need to make :( into :).
I am off for a bit, so you prob will be asleep when I get back to the computer
Take care and sweet dreams
Ah thanks petal.
I'll try not to snore too loudly ok.
Cheerio everyone:)

That there is some HARD LABOR!!!
I don't know about you all; but, my hat is off to all the laborers out there. Especially those men and women I see working along the highways and byways of America, on roofs or any outdoor constuction (or other) workers I see having to work out there in the intense summer heat! And, those out there cleaning up the beaches and cleaning blades of grass in the wetlands/coastal marshes with paper towels too!!!
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!
*stands and gives them all a rousing round of applause*
Paperheart: I'm wishing you a heartfelt bon voyage as you set sail on your new course (and courses) in life!!! May it be a, relatively, storm free journey!
Did you ever that tattoo?
Welshie: I, too, have heard from that adorable little Possum. I had planned (and still do plan) to visit her to make sure she wasn't shaken up too much with the earthquakes.
Thanks, Ergo (for delivering the good Possum news)!
I must also check in with Mya and make sure she (and her family)wasn't beaten up too much by Earl. Earl was at his strongest when he passed by her!
So, who's looking forward to that current WORLD CHAMPIONS the New Orleans SAINTS versus the (I'm retired, I'm not retired, I'm retiring, I'm not retiring, This is my last season, That wasn't my last season... Bret Farve lead) Minnesota VIKINGS game this week?
I AM!!!! It's going to be a GREAT game. The Vikings are out for blood and The Saints are hoping they're the ones to cause the bleed. (I'm hoping that as well ~ only, without any actual blood spilt.)
:P
And, of course, WHO DAT?!!! I BELIEVE!!!!
Enjoy the remainder of your day/night, everyone!!!
Hugs and Love,
~Namaste~

Hiya guys, how are you all?
How are you doing Mayo? I thought we'd lost you. Glad to see you made your way back. I hope you've been well sweetie.
It's great to see some familiar names I've been missing lately.
Paperheart, I hope you had a fantastic birthday sweetie. Good luck at University, I hope you have a brilliant time.
Ergo, thanks so much for letting us know that PP is OK.
Well, it's 2am and I'd better get to bed.
Hello again everyone, love you all loads. I'm so happy to see you all again.
Nighty night everyone xxx

I'm so sorry Ergo. Bugger. Now I'm crying. I'm so glad you were there with her.
Need a tissue. Back in a moment. =(
Okay. Back.
Happy Belated Birthday, Paperheart! I can't believe it. 18?! Where did those years spring from? I hope you had a fabulous day. =)
Many thanks to everyone that asked after me, and thanks Ergo for keeping people informed. I'm fine. =) My stepsister's chimney has since fallen into her house, with one of the 130 aftershakes, but at least she's one of the lucky ones and can still stay in her home.
So much history has been destroyed. Christchurch is our second biggest city and well over 100,000 homes, out of 160,000, have been damaged. Many historic buildings are having to be demolished. But you know what? - not one death! Incredible.
It's going to be a long haul as more damage is still being sustained and so many people are having to go into temporary shelters, but the whole country is pulling behind them and doing whatever we can. That's what you have to do. =)
Mayo,
Nemo? 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea, or movie review? Yeah I know. wrong as usual. Good to see you. =)
Hope you all have a nice day. =)

Morning all
*waves to wendy*
Thanks PP, she was a great old puss, I am not as sad as I thought I'd be though, not like when we have unexpectedly lost a pet. It dawned on me that I feel like I have read a really great book, even though it had a sad ending, it was the right one, and I have turned the last page and put it into the shelf, to be forever one of my favourites. I am so grateful she wrote it with us in it.
No worries on letting people know either, I'm sorry your stepsis had had more house damage. Some of those aftershocks have been huge! Seeing the pictures of the homes ad buildings destroyed is so sad, but as you said, no deaths is a blessing.
Hope everyone else is puttering along as best they can :]
i just want you to know who i am
Ha :) it would be nice if Mayo would tell us who he/her is. I appreciate the vid though.
Goodnight. :)

It's obvious to me that :) is posting songs and links for someone in particular. when you come in and post back to them they think that you are the one they have special feelings for responding in kind to them.

That is why I responded the way I did. I hope you understand
Oh. Thank you. Now I understand your line of reasoning, 1:39am. I never noticed that they were being posted for one person in particular. I just responded to a favourite song of mine.
I'm so sorry if I caused you some confusion :). =(
If you were doing that intentionally that would be cruel and fucked up.
I'm not that type of person. =(
I just went off that song.
Don't take it to heart =(
Blogs aren't the clearest form of communication. People misunderstand shit all the time. Keep enjoying the tunes. I prefer the polite or even overly-affectionate anons to what could be here instead. You didn't harm anyone.
Keep =)
*Gives 9:44/8:03 anon a big hug*
Don't be sad luv, I seriously don't think you meant any harm. I believe you when you say you just loved the song.
Here you go, *hands anon a bar of Cadbury's fruit & nut* :)
Pickled Possum, I'm so glad you're ok. Thank goodness there was no deaths. It's so sad to see so many historic buildings destroyed. Living in Wales means that I'm absolutely surrounded by them. I love it! I can spend hours daydreaming when I visit them.
Ergo I'm so, so sorry you lost your beloved cat. When I read 'the last thing she did was purr,' I felt so sad:(
Congrats on the win Wendy. Wendy? Bloody hell she's passed out!
*runs off to look for some smelling salts*
Hey anons, good to see you worked out your problem.
I have always liked that song, it was played for our wedding, I think it's lovely
Hope everyone is well.
Hi welshie!
I didn't know you'd posted, I had the page open then had to get breakfast and didn't refresh it.
Thanks,I'm glad I got to be with her.
I have a question for 1:39/1:46.
You obviously thought the anon at 9:44 was the intended recipient of :)'s post, so why were you so angry with that person? There was nothing rude, mean or unpleasant in 9:44's response to :) and I don't understand why 9:44's perfectly innocent response provoked such a hostile reaction.
9:44 explained they were not who you thought they were, but that does not explain why you lashed out at 9:44 when you thought they were the person :) was posting for. The only explanation would be that you know who :) is and who the intended recipient is and you do not approve of their relationship.
Hi Ergo. I just sort of sneaked in when no one was looking:) You're having breakfast? ooh, I'd love a bowl of cereal but it's midnight here!
I'm gonna have a bath then bed.
Talk to you soon:)
Ta ra.
sweet dreams welshie!
The more I read the papers
The less I comprehend
The world with all its capers
And how it all will end.
Nothing seems to be lasting.
But that isn't our affair;
We've got something permanent,
I mean in the way we care.
It's very clear
Our love is here to stay;
Not for a year
But ever and a day.
The radio and the telephone and the movies that we know
May just be passing fancies,
And in time may go.
But, oh my dear,
Our love is here to stay;
Together we're going a long, long way.
In time the Rockies may crumble, Gibraltar may tumble,
They're only made of clay,
But our love is here to stay.
*sighs*
Thanks Ergo, Welshie, 5:56 and 6:50 for your comments.
I just don't get this place anymore. =(
See you.
goodbye horses
I'm flying over you
Ô_Ô
but that does not explain why you lashed out at 9:44 when you thought they were the person :) was posting for.
and you do not approve of their relationship.
9:44 wasn't lashed out at because they were assumed to be the person smile was posting for. They were told to stop messing with people if that was what they were doing.
They were not intentionally doing that.
There has been too much confusion here already. Intentional and unintentional.
bye 9:44
That is a good song 12:06
Hope everyone is good, I've had a full day, need a rest now :]
Have a good rest Ergo. :)
It's the unintentional confusion of G'nite bloggers all over again.
Complete with the assumptions of who g'nite was and who they were posting the poetry for.
I miss the nightly poetry.
Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thru the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
On the shore dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected, now shines on the stream:
Tis the star-spangled banner: O, long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion
A home and a country should leave us no more?
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave
. . . crimson and clover over and over
so
good
yeah
allright
comeon
alright baby
Goodnight. :)
Never forget. Today is not just another day.
hi anons
3:09 the original is a beautiful song but I am also very partial to Joan Jett
It is a very tragic memorial anon, I remember waking up to the news on the clock radio and wondering if I heard it right, then turning on the tv...
till the end of
time
*comes in looking forward; while still remembering*
~~The innocent victims of 9/11.~~
And, all those killed in prior and post senseless, violent acts of terrorism... and all the people who knew and loved them.
Good morning to Mayo, Ergo, Possum, Welshie, Amy, :), confused, sad, pouty, lashing, flashing, fresh and fiesty anons and other folks!
How are all, today? Not too sad and pouty, I hope! Fresh and fiesty is, however, always good in my opinion! A little (gentle) lashing and (discreet) flashing isn't so bad either.
;)
Possum: It's really good to see you (here)! I'm working on a new trap for you. I've been so distracted that I haven't had time to make resizing adjustments! I must do that and do it soon!
Ergo: It is a very tragic memorial, isn't it? A truly horrible day ~ not just in American history; but also World history.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Congrats on the win Wendy. Wendy? Bloody hell she's passed out!
*runs off to look for some smelling salts*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
LOL, Welshie!!!
Thank you!!!! I'm glad someone was paying attention! I could have been "out" for a week and may have missed the next game!
I saw pigs fly and hell freeze over while I was out!
:P
Oh, no... wait... that was when we BEAT the Vikings last NFL season and made it to the SUPERBOWL!!!!
Then, WE WON the SUPERBOWL and became the WORLD CHAMPIONS!!!!!
That's right. US. We did. The WHO DATs! The "black and gold"! The "ain'ts no mo"! The NOLA SAINTS!!!
I do recall that a certain anon here said that "the Saints winning the Superbowl was a sign of the apocalypse".
Hmmm... did someone forget to tell us that the world ended?! Because, I certainly still feel winningly and spendidly ALIVE!
;)
*pinches self*
OUCH! Yep, still hurts!
Speaking of hurting, my head hurts this morning. Perhaps it's due to lack of sleep. Perhaps it's due to...
to be continued!
Hugs and Love,
~Namaste~

...continued (after Tinker Belle Michelle's wereyorkie potty and "I'm tracking a leeezard... no, now I'm tracking a squirrel" break)
*No leeezards or squirrels were harmed while not filming this morning's potty break episode*
(a slightly delayed reaction to) All the screeching and "wooo~hooo~ing" in the dome when Harry Connick, Jr rolled out on that "float" singing "When the Saints Go Marching In" and that CHAMPIONSHIP banner dropped!!!
~~Not my video. Not my channel. Just great footage of the moment!~~
Or, it could be because I was so excited to hear that my dear friends Martha and Mya were A~okay after recent fire and water/wind events.
:)
Or... it could have been that "double shot"...
~~by the Swingin Medallions!!!~~
Nah... it couldn't have been that. I just wanted an excuse to sing that song because I LOVE IT!!! It such a fun song!
Feel free to dance and sing along!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Woke up this morning, my head was so bad
The worst hangover that I ever had
What happened to me last night
That girl of mine, she loved me so right (yeah!) (oh, oh)
She loved me so long and she loved me so hard
I finally passed out in her front yard (whoo!)
It wasn't wine that I had too much of
It was a double shot of my baby's love
Double shot of my baby's love, yeah yeah, yeah
Double shot of my baby's love, yeah yeah, yeah
A potion that I had too much of
It was a double shot of my baby's love
It was such a thrill it was hurtin' me (ooh!)
I was sufferin' in ecstasy
She had me turnin' flips and-a shoutin' out loud (yah-hah!)
A sip of her love and I was walkin' one a cloud
One night a week is-a plenty enough
It's a good thing for me they don't bottle that stuff [pop!]
Well, my heart begins to fly like a dove
When I take a double shot of my baby's love
Double shot of my baby's love, yeah yeah, yeah
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That has always been one of my jukebox favorites!!! Right alongside "Sweet Child O'Mine" and "Patience" by GnR, "Back In Black" by AC/DC, "The Hand That Feeds" and "Closer" by NIN, "Feel Like Making Love" by Bad Company, "Anyway You Want It" by Journey and anything by HIM, KISS, Elvis, Pantera, Queen, Zombie, The Cult, T~Rex, or Meatloaf!
Have a great day, everyone!!!
Hugs and Love (again)
~Namaste~

Tell me, I guess that cupid was in disguise
The day you walked in and changed my life
I think it's amazing
The way that love can set you free
i think you're amazing
whoever claims to have made a pact with Destiny reveals himself a liar and a fool
what is any of us but a straw in a storm?
dust in the wind
all we are is dust in the wind
How can we pretend to act on our own?
In the hand of Love I am like a cat in a sack;
Sometimes Love hoists me into the air,
Sometimes Love flings me into the air,
Love swings me round and round His head;
I have no peace, in this world or any other.
The lovers of God have fallen in a furious river;
They have surrendered themselves to Love's commands.
Like mill wheels they turn, day and night, day and night,
Constantly turning and turning, and crying out.
All we are is dust in the wind...dude.
FFR
It's dudette. :)
Now I want a caesar salad. Extra dressing on the side. ;)
hmmm
only love
oonly love
can leave such a mark
Whipping up that dressing? Excellent! ;)
Goodnight. :)
only love can heal back the heart

Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.
Just cause my boat has a few miles on it doesn't mean I'm not still good with the oars.
Are both hands on those oars?
Release the oars, lay back, and go with the flow!
Ô_Ô
Watch out for the
*shuts eyes*
Ô__~
rocks.
Hang on
help is on the way!
Hiya guys, how are you all?
Ergo sweetie, I'm so so sorry to hear about you losing your cat. Such a sad thing sweetie.
I hope everyone is well. I'm tired tonight so just gonna say hi and bye.
Take care everyone xxx
Don’t Be A Control Freak Like Ms. Jackson
Oh, if she only knew from the beginning to go with the flow! You can, too, when you consider the following:
1. Do things that come effortless to you in your life. Focus on your God Given talent, even if it’s not your main way of making money right now. Work on it part-time, until it is!
2. Dump the heavy weight out of your boat. Focus ON YOU FIRST! Those anchors can be toxic relationships with friends, co-workers, and even family members and lovers who might be holding you back or draining your energy and nay-sayers that are not interested in your personal dreams. they are not reciprocal relationships, and can’t or won’t support the vision you have for yourself.
3. Honor your values and stand by your beliefs!
4. Become an allower!
The Art of Allowing is finding a vibration that feels SO good when you find it, feels better and better as you maintain it, and gives you evidence of that connection through THRIVING. You’ll learn to recognize an immediate response of to that connection … It is joy in the moment (NOW). The long long-range evidence is abundance in all things you consider good — like health, relationships, and dollars. —Abraham-Hicks, Phoenix 3/29/2003
5. Get good at finding an appropriate release. Let go of what it is that doesn’t make you feel good.
6. Realize you are the creator of your experience. You do have a choice … downstream with the flow or upstream with the struggle? Take your pick!
Once you begin to flow — circumstances and events become immediate. It will feel like magic and you’ll be slapping yourself in the head for not “letting go of the oars” sooner. The only thing holding you back is yourself. Come into vibrational alignment with who you are.
Most importantly, RELEASE THE OARS and go with the flow of life. Pay attention to your A-HA! MOMENTS. Oh, what a ride on river it will be!
good morning!
cute duckies :]
hello missT
thanks heaps :]
Hope you have a good sleep and sweet dreams
anons you're reminding me of this song
love that song, I was pretty proud of learning to sing along with it too.
Sock it to me.
Floatin down the river
With a saturated liver
And I wish I could forgive her
But I do believe she meant it
When she told me to forget it
And I bet she will regret it
When they find me in the morning wet and drowned
And words goes round
Goin down
Goin down
Comin up for air
It's pretty stuffy under there
I'd like to say I didn't care
But I forgot to leave a note
And it's so hard to stay afloat
I'm soakin wet without a boat
And I knew I should have taken off my shoes
It's front page news
Goin down
I'm goin down
Hep hep,
hep hep,
hep,
hep hep,
hep hep
I wish I had another drink
It wouldn't be so hard to sink
I should have taken time to think
Beside I got the picture straight
She musta had another date
I didn't need this extra weight
I wish that I could see the way to shore
Don't want no more
Goin down
Goin down
Now I see the life I lead
I slept it all away in bed
I shoulda learned to swim instead
Now it's really got me stumped
I can't believe or why I jumped
I'd like to get my tummy pumped
I can't believe they drink this stuff in town
This dirty brown
Goin down
Goin down
I should have looked before I leaped
I didn't know it was so deep
Been down so far I don't get wet
I haven't touched the bottom yet
This river scene is gettin old
I'm hungry sleepy wet and cold
She told me to forget it nice
I should have taken her advice
I only wanna go on home
I'd gladly leave that girl alone
What a way to spend the night
If I don't drown I'll die of fright
My papy taught to float
But I can't swin a single note
He threw me in to teach me how
And I stayed there floating like a mama cow
And now I'm floating way down stream
I know this has to be a dream
If I could find my way to shore
I'd never ever do this any more
I'll give you three, I've been down nine
I'm goin down just one more time
Goin Down
I'm goin down...etc
Now the sky is gettin' light
An everything will be alright
Think I finally got the knack
Just floatin' here lazy on my back
I never really liked that town
I think I'll ride the river down
Just movin' slow and floatin' free
There's a river swingin' under me.
Waving back to the folks on shore
I should have thought of this before
I'm floatin' on down to New Orleans
Goin' to pick up on some swingin' scenes
I know I'll know a better day
I'll go down groovin' all the way
Goin' down
Goin' down
Hello:)

Hi welshie it's a song sung by Mickey Dolenz by the Monkees. It's one of my faves of theirs.
No idea about the game, I just read along and wait until something I understand happens.
Til the end of time
Long as flowers bloom in May
I'll be there for you, to care for you
Forever and a day.
So take my heart in sweet surrender
And tenderly say that I'm
The one you'll love and care for
Til the end of time.

Why don't you just ask her instead of being a creepy stalker?
O_O
Oh noes. We have creepy stalkers again? I thought it was just an innocent webz question. My bad.
Why don't you just ask her
Her who?
OK now I am curious about I_K too. I googled it. What am I looking for?
And who should we ask??
good morning!
We are still all right
We took it on the chin
But in the thirteenth hour
No one ever wins
But we're strong enough
Like traffic all tied up
And when the static clears
The radios still buzz
And I stop and I breathe
'Cause you wanted me
And I wanted you so bad
And I stop and I breathe
'Cause I still believe
No one really knows what it is that we have
Like blood in a vein
We chased this one down
And in the darkest long night
We turned it all around
And it was coal-dusted snow
That covered the fields
But the corn it still grew
And the injury healed
And I stop and I breathe
'Cause you wanted me
And I wanted you so bad
And I stop and I breathe
'Cause I still believe
No one really knows what it is that we have
And I stop and I breathe
'Cause you wanted me
And I wanted you so bad
And I stop and I breathe
'Cause I still believe
No one really knows what it is that we have
:) Hi.
it's all around you you don't even know it
boogie woogie woogie wu!
This is the last worthless evening
That you'll have to spend
Just gimme a chance
To show you how to love again
This is the last worthless evening
That you'll have to spend
'Cause I'll be there
When your broken heart is on the mend
Worthless evening?
What worthless evening?
I'm down with the clown. :)
Goodnight. :)
Mornin'
Just wanted to let 'Ours anon' know that I've been recommending the band to some friends of mine. They are liking them very, very much:)
I'm recommending Recovery for everyone today. Think what you will of that man but he still has a lot to say. He's a fighter, a survivor and an inspiration.

good morning!
That is one powerful video...Eminem is the shizznitt
M in M is that and the nizzshitt 2!
He is aMaziNg! :)
I ♥ EmineM! 4evA
That's really funny, I saw him on Entourage tonight (I had taped it earlier and was just watching it) and as his song played over the credits, I was like, dang, I need to get that. I bought Relapse too.
:)
Your love is all I need to get through the roughest waters.
It guides me through the storm.
Come what may, we will stand together.
No matter what. ♥
Smiling is infectious,
You can catch it like the flu.
Someone smiled at me today,
And I started smiling too.
It's a small world after all
it's a small world after all
it's a small world after all
it's a small

good morning!
alpaca smiles :]
nice remix but I still find it such an irritating song, lol
hope everyone is well
It's a small world
after all
no matter if you're big or small
come on everybody
let's bounce a bit
let's spread some love
with a little twist
In the mood for some native American music
Me too! You're not alone woeho woeho oh oh
Good morning! :)
you might have to use a spoon
good morning!
Your duplicity is disgusting. There is no need to lie blatantly through your teeth about something you cannot feel. It's disgraceful and so evil. Delete this blog. Stop being such a heartless bastard.
September 17th 2010. The first day since the inception of this blog that nobody posted a comment.
hope you're not planning anything stupid
for yourself
then i won't
---- you
Sory to blow it for you Delete the Goddamned Blog Anon. HaHaHaHa!!
ello american bed wetting types
now where was i?
About to take your meds?
nope
If you do, i will give you a cookie!
you know who needs meds? the fucker who started this wank of a blog and toyed with people
get rid of this blog or make it private, then all's good
and you'll never hear from me again
I agree on that one. I think a foot up is ass wouldn't hurt either!
IS =The I think i could use some of the meds myself.
get rid of this blog or make it private, then all's good
and you'll never hear from me again
I think i would miss you Delete. Even though you are annoying,you add spice to this place.
it's such an easy thing to do
only a childish idiot would want to continue this blog
you don't need spice here
get it elsewhere, where you should
The problem with that is i don't think he comes here anymore.
get it elsewhere, where you should
Like United Supermarket? That's the only store we got in my town.
then why do you people insist on staying here?
go
you don't need to stay here
he's a childish idiot who cares only about his needs and wants and never cares about how his actions impact on others
The same reason you insist on staying here. Maybe out of habit. Maybe because some believe it could be someone that they think they know
no. i don't believe anything anymore.
i just want this blog to go
Well i want my life to quit sucking so hard but i just have to get through it and then one day it will get better. We don't get what we want all of the time.
of course we don't, but this is only a blog
and blogs finish
there are two options here. wipe it, or make it private.
Hang in there Delete. Nice talking to you. Maybe Mayo will read here again and read what you wrote and think about it. You never know.
he's the one that insisted on burning bridges
he's a childish, hurtful, immature fool
'scuse me.
How is burning bridges childish, hurtful and immature?
“I demolish my bridges behind me - then there is no choice but forward”
“When one burns one's bridges, what a very nice fire it makes.”
good morning!
Bridges burning gladly
Merging with the shadows
Flickering between the lines
Stolen moments floating softly on the air
Borne on wings of fire and climbing higher
Ancient bonds are breaking
Moving on and changing sides
Dreaming of a new day
Cast aside the other way
Magic visions stirring
Kindled by and burning flames rise in her eyes
The doorway stands ajar
The walls that once were high
Beyond the gilded cage
Beyond the reach of ties
The moment is at hand
She breaks the golden band
We've moved back to the Nemo post! I <3 Nemo. :)
