I like your poem but I don't like the self blame.
We live and learn.
Circumstances happen for reasons sometimes unknown to us..
I have a nature to balme myself first when something goes wrong. Kind of bad habits.
You aren't the victim or the victimizer or the villian.
We all have some bad habits...Many people Always blame others...that's a real baddy.
I think I'm the kind of girl who'd rather hurt myself than the others. This is speaking in gemerally. On the other hand, if I have to give some marks on sombody's face with my golf club in order to defend myself or my beloved, I'm pretty sure I won't hesitate. The fact that I don't appreciate viloence doesn't mean I can't use it. Wow, as I speaking this, I feel like I'm Die Hard or something. lol
I love strong and sensitive...I am similar in my own way...
Don't hurt yourself sweetie..cuz..your heart will develop problems..
Be honest and sometimes you will get hurt, even while hurting others but at least...life is dictating who gets hurt..It is a part of life..
I am sort of like you in that respect..
The problem is sometimes I don't know if I'm strong enough or sensitive enough. That's what we have to learn everyday, I think. Too sensitive, you'll get hurt easily. Too strong, you might miss something along the way. To balance them is not easy, ain't it?
Balance is an absolute for me..
I am pretty aware of that in my life.
I can see goal of my life and so do you. But sometimes we get lost or forget or distracted and we have to strive to get back on track. I feel calm and peace when I know what I do and why I do it. Maybe that is another form of happiness.
When I was young I wants thrill. As I get older, I'd prefer peace. I used to think a simple life is boring. Now I know it's not.
Wisdom is what you have..Wisdom is a
God given gift..I remember as a child being so fascinated with watching a worm crawl across the pavement or a bee taking pollen from inside the rose and I was happy ...without a care...simply protected in my environment and observing creation in action..Nothing can be less boring than observing creation and finding work to do with oneself that is fulfilling and a blessing to society...whether it be...paid or volunteer.. I agree completely that to do what you want to do and why is another blessing..and those kinds of blessings (purpose) bring peace and happiness...Sharing purpose in life with a partner is the icing on the cake...
sigh..
I don't even have my cake yet.
Sometimes the problem is you think too much. Maybe you should let you life flow and see what is the direction. I can't speak for you. But when I was trapped in my thoughts, thinking too many things, I have to let it go. Allow myself not to think and just do things in fornt of you. A simple things like folding the laundry, clean the house, etc.
Sometimes you can't rush the wisdom. It comes when it's time.
PS. I was pretty mean occasionally when I was a kid. I used to chased the dragonfly and killed it. Can't say it's an accident. I was too young and too stupid. I just wanted to see what's gonna happened if I hit a dragonfly with a stick. I was so sorry to do that and I still am.
sometimes I think too much....I don't want to make mistakes.
One door leads to joy and the other could lead to heartache and stress..One door is marriage, the other is cohabitating..one door is alone, the other is with a partner..Thinking about what could be behind the door is stressful for me...since I am trying to get it right...however..
I do know that.......whatever I do, I will try my best to bake a great cake.
It would be so great if this booming voice could say.."No Birdie, don't marry him, cuz you are going to turn right next year and meet the perfect man ..according to my plan" but he won't do that...or he could say.."Yes Birdie, marry and I will bless this union..with great work that you will do" That is the wisdom, I need..."A loud booming voice"
All kids can be mean..That is experiencing both good and bad in ourselves at a young age.
I think I burnt an ant with the help of the sun and a magnifying glass..All little kids do something mean..but also ...many kind things..I liked being good and doing good deeds from a young age..I knew God loved me and wanted me to be good and I felt "good".
I know it sounds silly but I wanted to feel "purity"..
Today, I kill flies when they buzz around my kitchen...but I respect life of all creatures, big and small..Life is the most precious gift of all...
I think you feel the same.
I am going to take your advice Tweaty and let it flow.
sending you megga hugs too..
You burnt an ant? Wow. Kids are so mean, aren't they?
Mega hugs...hmm...I can see big wings unfolding...lol
Wings?? Maybe someday I will get my wings..lol
way up there in the friendly skies.
mega hugs back to you..
or is your saying..back at you?
smiles
I know you're a thinker. What else can you be with many, many things in your head like this?
I'm not sure I'm a thinker. I mean sometimes I think so hard. Sometimes I don't think at all. I just say what the hell and go for it. Pretty much like mad sergent in a battle field.
sooooo...Miss Mad Sargent...that's a good name for you..lol
that's it...when you do the wierd thing...just fake it...
Me??? Hell NO???? I am just soooooooo normal!!! (right thing to do btw..what choice do we have but to fake it?)
I love you.
I'd rather imposter a Mister....lol..how about Mr. Laurel?
I could do Madonna...imposter her.....would take work though...She looks sooooooooooooo tired lately...that's a start....oh my gosh..This is entertainment!.Okay..you dress me up and I will work on Madonna.
so Flamingo Queen...what sort of wierd thing do you see me doing? in that fantasy of yours....just once in my life?
hmm??
I thought ............Why didn't they cast Michelle Pfiefer in Mamma Mia instead of Meryl Streep? Michelle would have looked so great with those leading men and I thought she would have been great in that role...with her looks and sassiness and voice.
lol..feed you doggie treats and you would be soooooo happy you'd purr...whoops..that's my role...lol
I miss a dog...I guess when (if) I get to Maui, I will have two doggies wanting to put their heads on my lap...They sense your loving energy...don't they?
I wish you can have your doggies soon. Pets can heal people with their unconditional love. So, which breed do you want? Or you think of adopting them from pets shelter?
If I get a dog, I want a little lap dog. my cuddle dog..not too big...and non shedding...I know..but there are these great mixed breeds now...like Labridoodle..other smaller mixed non shedding breeds...They breed everything with a poodle now....Oh those poodles do work overtime...so...I really want a mutt...A mutt with heart and no curly or wavy hair...
I have mixed breed around the house. lol. They're kids of Jackson, my old poodle that was in dog's heaven now. He was such a playboy!
Small dog is convenience to be taken care, I think, Especially when we're women that cannot fight with big dog like labrador. I like Scottish Terrier. They looks so funny. It's not like they're real!
Yes..Dogs are like kids...so much humility....we become puddles of love...which makes me wonder...if people were puddles of humility...would we love them or hate them? Just a question...maybe if they had puppy eyes, we'd have to love them...and love them and love them..nonstop...Humility is a pretty good deal!
I am having a giggly morning...the sun is shining...I like that!
I suppose you can tell that hair...is a no no for me..
Tweaty...In 3 days...Maddison and Beau have hair balls floating along the hardwood...When the sun shines on the floor, all you can see is tiny hairs..Then I vacuum and wash the floors again...myself...in the heat.....so I am tired of hairy creatures...If I had a maid come in once a week, I wouldn't mind...and a groomer for the hairy wonder.
Maybe short haired dogs are you choice. Or you gotta go find the no-hair magic glasses. You know, the one you wear and you so no hair at all. lol
1)Either find the no hair magic glasses..
2) Non shedding doggie
3) No doggie...no cattie.
4) Wait until you're 90 years old and so blind, you can't see anything...especially thousands of itty bitty hairs.
My choice is # 2.
I know how much you enjoy multiple choice questions...Ms. Flamingo.
smiles..
