    there was a hilarious dog video on the FUN FORUM a couple of days ago–nobody really showed up for that either. I get that people have problems but you have to balance it out with some light hearted moments.

    – I have read some of your remarks Jack. You seem like a kind soul and I love your poems and that you laugh at yourself. Anita has welcomed me and has a comforting way about her.

    I have a rather warped sense of humor and its one of my favorite things about me. Wanna share one of your favorite things about yourself-Jack, anyone?

    I am up for fun….joined recently, but it hasn’t made me smile as much as I expected. Guess that is up to me.

    I got some great news today…if I continue to keep my A1C levels as low as they have been averaging-I can completely go off my diabetes medicine in 6 months. whooohoo!! Now this does mean I have to always eat right and exercise but wow!!!!!

    Also I am a sleep walker and I haven’t fell out of bed or broken any furniture except twice in last 6 months. I act out my dreams. Yea, I have to take medication but its working. I dove, ran or fell out of bed about 40 times over last 3 years—that was alternating painful/hilarious/depressing but quite entertaining.

    anybody else got good news or something to grin about???

    thanks for asking

    -no man is an island, a beautiful favorite clique that means we are all connected

    Seaisland —sea island -there are more than one hundred sea islands on the coast between Fla and Georgia, I live in the lowcountry on one of the many islands and have lived and worked on others. I realized when I was in my 30’s I never wanted another job that had me heading toward town–I wanted to go toward the water, it brings me comfort regardless of how the work day went, I could maintain with a view.

    Sea is land– for me personally I am more stable/happy with the tidal water than the concrete world, I keep up with tide much more than clock time.

    I hope your day is beautiful.

    Oh, what a great way to start my day smiling. A stitch in the side is the sharp pain I get in my rib cage when I physically laugh too much and probably what was meant. that video was too funny, thanks.

    I often get the deep loud hiccups-painful “whiplash” hurt my neck hiccups from laughing…..especially when my 80 year old mother and I have hilarious scrabble games. She is so good at it and I am such a crazy player–we laugh until her sides hurt ( stitch in side) and I have the hiccups so hard my neck hurts.

    Good.
    I wanted you to know I wished you that energy of comfort.. rock you like a child….but was afraid– as I am so new— u would not see it as sincere or healing. (so I joked)
    I wish sweet dreams for all
    good night

    there may be many souls on earth sending you positive energy……or wishing because u helped them with a kind word, they knew now what they say to you.
    personally I picture myself holding you and rocking you like a child then I start laughing cuz u do not know me or my intent and that probably would freak you out to read……then I think……. she hurts but I made her run fast away.
    I hope you have a sense of humor.
    blesseth be

    I understood your intent–I read a lot before I decided to join. I see u are actively involved and think u give heartfelt advice.
    I hope to grow in a positive way and have some smiles while doing so.

    I really hope you followed Anita’s advice and have ended this. I have also been in relationships like this–quit waiting for the perfect time to end this, even if you have booked or bought Christmas or have New Years plans. You will just make new bad memories and keep yourself from connecting to positive experiences you could be having even alone.
    I was so hurt by a turmoil of bad relationships that I was alone for 3 years. I do not regret what I learned in that time but if I hadn’t been so low (and had to let go of so much anger and replays of what I could have done differently. U can never say anything so wise to an @hole that they are suddenly enlightened. You can only value your self and change your situation.
    I love to take off and roam the deserted beach on the islands in the area–its not safe to go alone–so I would put up with my x partner so I could enjoy nature–I wasn’t enjoying it while he was cussing and ruining the view. I took an adventure working for a shrimp boat captain who I lived with. Hard work to see dolphins and waves. I learned I was capable of so much–but he complained about everything non stop.
    I understand wanting to share outdoors/time with someone. Please don’t wait as many years as I did……as I became older I started having panic attacks regretting my choices. sooner or later physical violence will probably come from men who yell and curse….its emotional violence regardless.

    Hi Just joined also…wanted to say hello. I am late 50’s female who is on a path that often feels right, but I stumble and forget what I “know” and let others imagined or unimagined judgement knock me off my positive trail. I have been reading Tiny Buddha for a few weeks-My therapy is to try to walk out and say hello to the sun everyday…..read a bit of encouragement whether Christian, Buddhist or agnostic. I have an affirmation. I try to journal. I see a therapist about every three weeks. I am in a mostly fulfilling relationship when its not–its usually because I have become a little too clingy. I dislike that in other people so when I do it myself I can really get down on me. Family is as loving and supportive as anyone could hope for. I strive to be proud of my self and my actions. I am a loner, a party of one.
