Question of the Day:


(inspired by a friends post on Facebook, Just Kate, so some of you may have noticed this one on her page as well, but like her, I changed the question up a bit to ask it)


Do you think men and women can have a deep friendship without taking things to the next level?




Today's

    Absolutly, I did sales for 20 years and worked with lots of men, we had no interest in each other other than as friends, we were very close and it was never a thought! I think the older you get the more possible it is?

      You know what's funny, is that I was just thinking the same thing. As you get older, it gets much easier to be.

      Thanks Carol!

    I believe so. I always got on better with men than women, most of my school friends were men & i'm still friends with them years later. Even a friend of mine who I dated for a couple of years when I was at school still keeps in touch. We have a friendship that has lasted & there's never been awkward moments between us, as long as each person knows where the friendship stands than no issue should exist.

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

By
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...

(GBE 2:Blog On) First Love

By
Old post being reposted. GBE2: Blog On's Topic this week is: First Love Click the link to find out what GBE2: Blog On is and how YOU can participate. If you love writing and/or blogging, it's the place to go! Great people, great fun, what more could you ask for? FIRST LOVE When I first saw the topic for this week's GBE2, my first thought was of the friendship I walked away from just last week. He was one of my first love's. But I had already talked about it on a previous web post so I wanted something different. I just didn't want to focus on it. Today, while I was doing dishes, a.k.a inspiring myself, I thought of a different first love. To myself. I do too. I love myself. I may not always like myself... I mean come on, if you had to live with her 24/7 she might drive you batty too. But I do love myself. People can tell you so. I don't need to. Well I did, but... I'm digressing. I'm quirky, crazy (two different things there obbb...

(GBE2: Blog On) Let go of the reins and you'll know freedom

By
This week's (4th) GBE2: Blog On topic is "Control." For more info head here I admit it, I'm a type-A personality. It was a learned behavior. I felt as though I needed to be in constant control of everything around me. I worked 3 jobs and went for weeks on occasion without a day off. I still felt as though I wasn't doing enough. Not around the house, not with my friends, not for dating, not even for work. I just have always had this "I'm not doing enough" attitude instilled in me from a lot of the immediate people around me. So a lot of my behavior was ingrained so deep that I still suffer with that. I feel as though no matter what, I'm not doing enough, being the best I can be, and all of that great unhealthy attitude one should not have. But I do. And I know it's not good, but I still suffer with feeling inadequate because I am just not doing enough. Which is wrong. It's just something that I suffer with. I admit to it....
