    It's always so hard to write about the good things we do. It feels like bragging and we know we're not supposed to do that! I guess the nicest thing I do for anyone is be there. I try to be there whenever someone needs me. I may not always know what to do or say but I think making the effort, being there is the important thing.

      Which is what makes this question a great one to ask! Reminds us of the GOOD we do. :D

      I think that's one of the absolute best things one can do. Sometimes difficult, but always worth it!

      Thanks!

    I'm with Mojo--hard to write about the good things we do. I think the nicest thing I do is to be a good friend, listen to them without judging, give them a shoulder to lean on, and stand by them when they need someone by their side.

    My friends tell me I'm nice all time; apparently I'm too nice. Honest, this is what they always tell me. I sound like I'm bragging, but that really is what other people think of me. Anyway, the best thing I can think of is, it was my friend's birthday and it wasn't going well. NO ONE should feel sad/mad/frustrated etc on their birthday. So, as a gift, I wrote her a happy birthday poem and she started to tear up. I think that perked her up right away.

    Hmmm - dang - it's hard to say because its "ever" and what"ever" it is, I feel like it wouldn't be that significant. Hmmmm. Taking too long here. Hmmmm. I can't think of anything for "lately" either. :-( Ok - whew - here's one... I invited someone I didn't know, and never met before to call me to give/share some encouraging advice on how to self-publish a book. I still don't feel like it was THAT significant or the nicest thing ever but she really appreciated the time spent talking to her sharing what I know. Wow this was a hard question.

    I guess the answer to this brilliant question is that i am always there for people if they need me. I will pick up the phone/email/visit if someone needs a shoulder to cry on or an ear to listen or even if they need shopping or a loaf of bread etc. It's the thought that counts when doing something for someone else, if it makes them happy or gives them a giggle/smile then i have done the right/best thing for them :o)

    *blushes for the shout out* ;o)

      Thanks Donna!

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....
