Question of the Day (January 4, 2012)

By Anonymous
Brother's birthday! 35. lol

For the first week we will do some simpler questions so people can filter back in, and see they're posted once more. Answer here, or whatever service you're on. If I post this in a group, then I ask that you answer on my blog, or main profile, not in the group.

More information on this can be found here and here.




Question of the Day:

I'll make it birthday based from my brother having his. What is the typical birthday like for you? Do you prefer to hide from it? Or is there a big celebration? Do you celebrate YOUR actual age?


Today's featurette will go to Ben Breedlove: was on Earth just weeks ago, but is touching hearts from Heaven... Kandee Johnson, who reminds me everyday that it's okay to be who you are. She posted a link to a YouTube video today, which is something you MUST watch, if you haven't already. A video of a boy who passed just a few days after the video was made.


Tootles!

Lots of warm hugs and love, free from me to you!

    Birthdays are meant to be celebrated! I love it all. This month I will be 50 and my husband is planning a party for me, and I can't wait. And forget those "no gifts please" notes on invitations. Gifts are part of the fun! We all deserve a day to celebrate ourselves - especially women.

    I am good with it whether we celebrate my birthday or not. I don't hide from my age as I am embracing turning 40 in a month and a half. I only had 3 birthday parties growing up and Birthdays were never that big of a deal, and that has somehow carried over into adulthood. BUT! If someone says let's party...I'm ready!!

Ladies and Gentlemen….

Normally, right about now, I would feel inclined to continue with “and children of all ages” (guess I’ve been to the circus just one time too many) but this time instead of introducing some dancing bears or the Flying Wallendas, I’m simply here to introduce myself. My name is Tracie Dee . I’ve been writing for about 4 years now and got my start blogging on MySpace. I love writing but these days, I’m also finding enjoyment with vlogging. I have found that videos are a nice way to share what words alone might not give justice to and also for people to really get to know the person behind the words and the keyboard. Overall, I consider myself to be a pretty down to earth and upbeat person, whose sense of humor can be a bit wacky at times. Hey, life can be rough and sometimes laughter and levity can be our only saving grace to help us get through it all. I consider it to be our very own little light at the end of the tunnel that serves to remind us that even during the very worst

Bucket Lists

"Its never too late to be what you might have been" – George Eliot I’ve been a late bloomer in pretty much every aspect of my life. Some of it was out of my control (I mean I really couldn’t help if Mother Nature has a twisted sense of humor and exercised it heavily on me during my teens and twenties) but I can’t put all of the blame for it on her, either. Some of it was also by my personal choice. And by that, I mean I used to be very shy and afraid of “what was out there” in the big, scary world so I would rarely try anything new or took any chances of any kind. I chose instead to do my best to hide away from life, tucking myself away from it safely like a tight little rosebud that had not yet bloomed. But there is a quote that says “And the time came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.” This was the case for me. As time went on, my rosebud shell grew more and more uncomfortable for me. So one day I just took a c

Silent relaxing sunday--wait it's Saturday. A day lost and found! :)

This week's   GBE   is about "Lost and Found." I know a lot of people some years back thought that I'd lost myself. I was even told it was the better part of myself. It took me years to figure out that it wasn't true. Somewhere in the back of my mind, I always believed it to be true. Until I finally had the courage to admit to myself, that they were in the wrong; not me.  That's the problem with some "friends." They aren't really your friends. Someone recently told me something that really hit home. It was profound even.  She said:  "The friend is not a friend. just a person with emotional gravity in your life."    Well that's true. Granted, the comment she had made was from a completely different happening, but still it works.  A lot of people are fortunate in having tons of close friends, even close friends that stick around their entire lifetime. I gave up on that notion a long time ago. I realized that mostly, friends w
