27. I already have in some ways.
Part of growing up, I suppose. I just try to look for the best. Although, I guess I've been lucky in the sense, that I've always had a "best" to look for. Does that even make sense? :wtf:

It's not his fault because he is what he is, and I am what I am. Your kind words are helpful to me, though.

13. My car broke down so I called the STBE in desperation
and he told me to call a cab. He was five blocks away! Have you ever been so horribly hated/

I've had too much to drink and am feeling grotesquely sorry for myself. Fortuntely I was very close to home but it makes me think, why have we been together all these years. I mean nothing to him.

Sorry, SA. if I were sober I wouldn't unload.

Get on your knees and thank whatever god you love, because your whole life is ahead off you. Lovely SA. You could be me, with everything once ahead of me and now nothing but blackness there. You are lucky to be you. Since you're adorable, even luckier.

It is easy to love a one-dimensional character. It's okay, I understand all that. Allow me the self-pity because i rarely cry.

Okay, it's your fault and also the vodka's fault.

Beautiful man, you need to be like me and look at what surrounds you. I am not the high point of your day. You aren't noticing that which is! :hug: :hug: Again, thanks. And did I mention? Thank you.

42. I've witnessed
seperation/divorce, twice with very close friends....all the people involved, with both divorces/seperations were very close friends of mine...its hard trying to help all of them out, while trying to not to be utterly biased, or show favoritism...its a fine line.

46. with the two current ones,
Edited on Sat Jan-06-07 02:04 AM by petersond
in lamans' terms, its a grand pissing contest of every negative, messed up thing that has happened within their 7yr marriage...

I've lived with them for about 3 yrs of their marriage, as a roommate, and they continually look at me to take sides, and I refrain, because its them, not me...and they understand that, but they also want that support, which I do give to both of them freely/often....There are two kids involved with this one, and I hope, it doesn't get uglier than it is now....*fingers crossed*

For your situation, I just hope/pray for the best...Just don't lose yourself in the madness, ok?

on edit:spelling, its late...

18. nah. It's just another day
GHOST DANCE
Robbie Robertson and the Red Road Ensemble

Crow has brought the message
To the children of the sun
For the return of the buffalo
And for a better day to come

You can kill my body
You can damn my soul
For not believing in your god
And some world down below

You don't stand a chance against my prayers
You don't stand a chance against my love
They outlawed the Ghost Dance
But we shall live again, we shall live again

My sister above
She has red paint
She died at Wounded Knee
Like a latter day saint

You got the big drum in the distance
Blackbird in the sky
That's the sound that you hear
When the buffalo cry

Crazy Horse was a mystic
He knew the secret of the trance
And Sitting Bull the great apostle
Of the Ghost Dance

Come on Comanche
Come on Blackfoot
Come on Shoshone
Come on Cheyenne

We shall live again

Come on Arapaho
Come on Cherokee
Come on Paiute
Come on Sioux

We shall live again

36. think wider than yourself
it is one of the things that could save you from your self destructive mental/emotional thoughts.

Grandmother's Blanket
By Ann Murray Smith



Grandmother's Blanket holds the sweet smell of sage
Woven by enchantment, as the Spirits feel no rage.
Trimmed in eyelet shadows, cast into the snow
Tumbleweeds and deserts She traveled long ago.
The threads are Her wisdom She passes on to you,
Reflections wrap around us, as if we always knew.
The patchwork shows directions North, East, South, West
The needle points the way so we know when to rest.
Grandmother's Blanket holds the soft warmth of down
From fine-feathered friends and foliage all around.
Covered by a breeze and a soft summer rain
Lightning dances wildly, as the Thunder heals Her pain.
The colors are Her passions beneath the cotton lining
For She knows the Spirit world, is free and never binding.
Footsteps walk below the soil, Mother Earth is listening
Frost paints the Blanket edges, above the stars are glistening.
Grandmother's Blanket has many stories to tell
The colors have faded, for the years have turned it pale.
Comforted by the Oneness, Her head bows down in grace,
Thanking Great Spirit for Her Honor in this place.

51. being alone is simply understanding
the concept of peace in a different manner.

You have an opportunity. Don't waste it.

How many have gone off to be alone in history and come back with something to offer others?

54. don't put yourself in Benny's mind!
He could be more concerned about you and your emotional health than you give him credit for.

He's more attuned to you than you may think.

Anyone with two eyes, a nose that breathes air and expressions is someone to listen to.
