Relationships

So, I didn't realize that people just will say something mean, over saying something constructive. Thank you ANONYMOUS that felt the need to go there...Great observation, and reminder sometimes you can't reach everyone.

It's like I was saying on the last blog. I didn't disagree with peoples opinions. Like I stated what works great for one relationship might not be for another.... Some relationships want to hear "Tell me you love me" others want the actions to show "love" What LOVE is for one person isn't the same for another....I was talking with some friends that supported that statement....I.E. Cuddling, intimacy might fulfill one person, while someone helping out around the house or mowing the yard might fulfill another.

Everything is so touchy because once you think you have it all figured out, something comes out of the blue and throws the famous curve ball. Friends with benefits...good, great...but doesn't someone always get hurt? Isn't there someone that always has a little bit more invested? I guess I'm a hopeless romantic that way. Is it called friends with benefits because it is the new version of figuring out what you want? Just some questions.

I have seen so many different types of relationships, and from all I've taken in a lot. I think in observations if we try a little bit of everything, it helps a relationship grow and become stronger.

We'll keep it short today. I'll have more to say this week.
Thank you again for your comments.

I heard a song today that I danced to with my husband at a good friends wedding about a year ago. The DJ asked for everyone that was married to come on to the dance floor. As he counted down the years that people were married, he asked you to leave the dance floor. After a few 5,10, & 15 year couples left the floor, I looked around and noticed that among some very old couples was me and my husband, I was so proud at that time. Because you see me and my husband were married very young. As I looked out into the crowd I realized that we had made it longer than most couples old and young. This may not make any sense to you, it really hit home to me that my husband and I must have been doing something right all this time in our marriage. I felt good about this and as I looked at the man holding me that night who I had spent most of his life with, I couldn't help but remember the earlier years of our marriage. 19 years have passed and I am more in love with this man than ever. Through the good and the bad we have made it. I know there are more hard times to come and good time to come, but I also know that God put this man and woman together for a reason and everyday that I wake up and see this man's smiling face, I know why. If you get a chance listen to the song by Alan Jackson called "Remember When". Listen to the words it tells a beutiful story about marriage.

End Scene

Sometimes you stand on the edge looking down wondering what could possibly be next? Just when you think you have it all figured out, when it just couldn't surprise you anymore, bam there it is.  There is this thing in life called responsibility. We live in a society that is so wonderful at pointing fingers no one knows the value of sucking it up anymore and taking responsibility for hurting someone, neglecting their care. Money can buy you things, but it can not buy you health nor happiness.  Money can buy you the fancier brand, but it can not buy you class.  In your quiet moments, what do you think about?  How far you’ve come, or how far you have to go?  Your strengths, or your weaknesses?  The best that might happen, or the worst that might come to be?  In your quiet moments, pay attention to your thoughts.  Because maybe, just maybe, the only thing that needs to shift in order for you to experience more happiness, more love, and more vita...

Fragile

Fragile. Every day it is a challenge to stay positive. You wake up, you tell yourself all of these wonderful affirmations, you promise no matter what, P O S I T I V E. What if within all of this positivity you realize fate, time, it has all come to a moment, when that positive side, that strength...well you hit a bit of a break down? It's not o.k. right? Get over it, stop feeling sorry for yourself, everyone goes through worse...well you know what? What ever we all go through this is not a competition, and we are all built different. I think the main point MOST of us strive towards is to love, be good, kind, work hard, so we can play hard. Remember WORK TO LIVE, not LIVE TO WORK. Balance is the trick. The YING/YANG I have always told people on a bad day, a day they cry or just need to let loose, it's o.k. We are human and every once in a while you just have to cry. It's o.k. to feel overwhelmed? 7 years to the day I moved to this state, is 7 years to the date I'm abou...

Amor, Amor, Amor

It has been an interesting few weeks understanding loves. Understanding friends relationships, understanding how much so many of us have in common (or do we? you know who you are). In the past few blogs I was writing about why so many hurt, suffer pain. I had seen so many extremes and how it was one thing or another and the only one thing in every relationship that you can overdose on( and it is o.k.) is communication (how ever you choose to express it, or how creative you want to get). It is so hard at times watching relationships where you can see the love so clearly but I don't know if it's pride, or fear that people hold back what they need to say? I know that sometimes it is easier to tell an indirect person what you want to say due to being let down, or hurt just flat out sucks, but wouldn't it suck more to just miss out on something amazing or find out now if it is even worth all that worry? We get this great opportunity at life. We have the ability to communicat...
