    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!

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
