Todays Question...



WHY?



I got nothing else... frown


***************************************************

As I walk along the path, I see a footprint in the dew on the moss.

A white cloud lies low on the quiet waters.

The smell of grass is sweet through my open door.

The sound of a nearby brook is music in my ears,

And I see truth in the flowers.

I had forgotten how...

HI!!!

Is everybody having a good day?

Me? Yes...sure am. Though I am at work.

I'm still on the search for knowledge and truth though. Does the search ever really end?

What do you believe in? I mean what is really important to you? Issues, beliefs, philosopheies? Would you die to remain true to your own self? Like Socrates drank the poison rather be silent...

In that direction," the Cat said, " lives a Hatter and in that direction lives a March Hare. . . . They're both mad."

"But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.

"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."

Aim for success not perfection. Never give up your right to be wrong, because then you will lose the ability to learn new things and move foward with your life.


Live your life with a vengence. smile

Ok...

Note to self: stop making journal entries when drinking.

It's just I don't have alot of people on my friends list, and i try to pay attention to everyone. So yes, i guess I do take it a little personal when i notice a name drops off my list. You know, I feel like i did something wrong.

That said...

I believe I had...

Ha ha! I've made this note to myself too many times!! Still do it, though, alas.

Hope Sarah Mclaughlin is wonderful... I have several of her albums.

P.S. An SG member older than me! What a concept.
kozmikgirl:
Thanks for the encouraging words. biggrin

I haven't deleted anyone, unless they go gray for a week or so, or they tell me they are not re-opening their account once it goes down. No one has pissed me off as of yet, but that would get them deleted too, I suppose. Otherwise, you are my friend til the end! wink

You know what I'm envious of?

The people that can make a one line journal entry of less tham ten words and get 50 replies. When some people (ie. ME) can make soul searching queries into the meaning of life and get squat.

Am I really that pathetic? frown
erin:
people don't feel justified in commenting on something so personal if they don't know you a little.
silvereve:
I have found that verbal diarreha seems to work really well for me. I wink

Hey---

Updates are highly overrated. For that matter journals are highly overrated.

I am of an inquisitive mind today, so here is my query.

Do you consider yourself political, and if so are you true to your convictions?

In my eyes, if you don't have convictions you have nothing.

Remember if you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything.

Ok..That's all form me...

suzy_kabloozy:
Well, my dear, no ... I am not political. At different points in my life, I have been more so, but getting older and realizing that there is nothing I can do about much. It's not exactly apathy ... and I am ambivalent (meaning torn, not unconcerned) about so much, too. I'm not sure if I'll fall for anything, but I'm not willing to fight for much either. So am I able to live up to own stated morals? Ha! Can you spell hypocrite? BUT, see, I decided that I am a "benevolent anarchist" and that gives me a lot of leeway for making it up as I go along. Does that make sense? I'm not sure if it's even supposed to.

How about you? Are you true to your convictions? How does your career path influence that?
suzy_kabloozy:
You know, Tim, I apologize that I'm not over here more. I like "talking" with you. Here is the sad truth ... somehow, I now have 136 friends over there. I cannot even keep up with the comments half the time. AND I'm being evicted. AND work is a little stressful right now, working 6 days a week most of the time, but in March I worked 26 consecutive days or something crazy. I am soooo burned out. In 3 days or so, I leave for a roadtrip to a bunch of western states. I have 11 days off. I have wanted to do something like this all my life, but there was always something ... kids, bills, men who hated me to be happy, whatever. That wasn't a shot at men in general, by the way, because I love men ... and women. I'm a lover, not a fighter! smile So, yeah, I'm about to fulfill a dream and the guy who is taking me, I met here. He's super cool. I just may have a big crush going here or something. biggrin It's sweet, it's scary, it involves adrenaline ... I'm there.

Hehehe ... now I'm remembering just before you went to Boston. I mean, getting away is wonderful. But when I return, I must be very brave. I will have all this grownup stuff to do, and I am COUNTING on this being therapy for me. I have never traveled. I have been around California, up to 500 miles away, but that's it. I guess just across the border to Nevada a few times. And Mexico. I love Mexico. But I don't go often any more. I can completely relate to your excitement now. smile

So I asked about your career because I know you are a little liberal and it wasn't that I thought you were a little clone for them, I just wondered about your inner struggle. I hate to affiliate myself with either side. I self govern. Some of my views are quite conservative, actually, considering everything else that is true about me. Especially fiscal stuff. Damn liberals will bankrupt us yet! I can't believe that they take more taxes than I pay for rent, and now I face homelessness because it is VERY expensive here. I make okay money, I guess, but I have tuition for a private school for my son, an expensive car, and no child support. It just seems unfathomable that anyone can afford $1600 a month for a 2 bedroom apartment on one income. And LAUSD? No thank you! So I am the middle class poor and the tax cuts helped me. I guess I should be glad I'm rich. Anyway, enough about that because I really think both sides are crazy. That's why I self-govern and I try to leave love in the world and that's where I get "benevolent anarchist" from. It's probably a gross exaggeration, but it sounds pretty.

Have a great night! smile

Hey---

You know what really makes me sad? When names drop off my friends list and I can't figure out why. smile *SIGH* Oh Well...

The week-end was uneventful. My race sucked, i got a bad start, my breathing was off, I finished way back in the pack.

I'm not a "world Class" by any stretchm but i have my pride. Well..I'll make up for it...

I need to something...right???

Should I even care?

I feel my time as a part of the "community" is winding down.

Some of you have been very sweet, and even close to what I would call friends, but I feel I don't belong here.

I'm way too fucking old, and well..I'm a guy.

Well, nobody said I was creepy or anything like that...quite the opposite, in fact. Everyone here is really great and no one's ever made my age an issue.

Except for me. I'm the one with the problem, I guess. blackeyed
