SOME OF MY THOUGHTS

"MY" THOUGHTS ON LOVE

We are each of us angels with only one wing, and we can only fly embracing each other."
--Luciano De Crescenzo--

LOVE.......WHAT IS LOVE? I HAVE OFTEN WONDERED WHY LOVE HAS TO BE SO DIFFICULT. I TRULY BELEIVE IT IS BECAUSE EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US HAVE OUR OWN DEFINITION OF THE WORD. THERE ARE SO MANY WAYS IN WHICH TO LOVE AS WELL. IT IS SO RARE THAT YOU FIND A PERSON THAT SHARES THE SAME BELIEFS. WE CHOSE OUR MATES, OUT OF THOSE THAT CAN GIVE US WHAT WE LACK. LIKE THE FAMOUS QUOTE FROM JERRY MCGUIRE....."YOU, COMPLETE ME". THESE FEW WORDS ARE SO TRUE. WE COME FULL CIRCLE.

"MY" THOUGHTS ON RELATIONSHIPS

WELL, AS FAR AS RELATIONSHIPS GO, I HAVE BEEN SHORT CHANGED IN THE ONES I HAVE BEEN IN. MOST THINK A RELATIONSHIP IS A 50-50 COMMITTMENT. MY OPINION IS THAT IT IS 100%-100%. EVEN TOUGH WE ALL HAVE GOOD AND BAD EXPERIENCES, THEY ARE TO BE LEARNED FROM. THERE IS SO MUCH KNOWLEDGE TO BE GAINED. IT IS THIS KNOWLEDGE THAT MAKES THE NEXT TIME THAT MUCH BETTER. IT GIVES US MORE TO PUT INTO THE NEXT ONE. THOSE OF YOU WHO KNOW ME CLOSELY ALWAYS TELL ME THAT YOU CAN'T BELIEVE I EVEN TALK TO THE OPPOSSITE SEX ANYMORE, MUCH LESS TRUST AND BELIEVE. THE ONLY THING I CAN SAY TO THAT IS IT'S NOT FAIR TO JUDGE SOMEONE BY ANOTHER'S ACTIONS. AND NOW THAT I KNOW WHAT I WANT I WON'T EVER SETTLE AGAIN FOR LESS THAN I DESERVE.

THE SOLID FOUNDATION

THE SOLID FOUNDATION FOR A RELATIONSHIP IS REALLY SIMPLE. BUT SO DIFFICULT FOR SOME TO BUILD. YOU MUST HAVE TOTAL OPENESS AND HONESTY IN COMMUNICATING. COMMUNICATION ABOUT ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING IS A MUST!!! IT IS FROM THIS COMMUNICATION THAT THE HONESTY BUILDS US INTO TRUSTING. IT IS FROM THESE THREE KEY FACTORS THAT THE REST FLOURISHES.

SOME MY FAVORITE THINGS

ROMANCE

.....I BELIEVE ROMANCE IS THE KEY TO ANY RELATIONSHIP. I GUESS YOU COULD SAY I AM ONE OF THE LAST IN A DYING BREED OF HOPELESS ROMANTICS. IT IS THE LITTLE THINGS THAT AMOUNT TO SO MUCH!!!!

THUNDERSTORMS

.....OH HOW I LOVE THUNDERSTORMS. THEY ARE SO WICKED AND MYSTERYRIOUS, YET SO BEAUTIFUL AT THE SAME TIME. THE BEAUTY OF WATCHING THE LIGHTENING DANCE ACROSS THE SKY. THE THUNDERING RUMBLING ON........AND THE RAIN PELTERING DOWN AS TEARS FROM HEAVEN.

MUSIC

.....I AM VERY VERSATILE WHEN IT COMES TO MUSIC. I FEEL IT ALL DEPENDS ON THE MOOD & CIRCUMSTANCE OF THE SITUATION. SOME OF MY FAVORITE SONGS ARE *KISS*...THE RAIN, TRULY MADLY DEEPLY, KEEPER OF THE STARS, MY HEART WILL GO ON, AND TOO TOO MANY TO LIST!!! *lol* SOME OF MY FAVORITE GROUPS ARE KANSAS, CARS, MATCHBOX 20, SAVAGE GAREDN, WALLFLOWERS, GEORGE STRAIGHT, TRACY BYRD, ACDC, BAD COMPANY, TIM MCGGRAW(OOH LA LA, shook his hand at a concert and didn't wash it for days....*lol*)AND OF COURSE MY CANADIAN BAND "BLUE RODEO"

COLLECTIONS

......I HAVE TO SAY I COLLECT FRIENDS. A TRUE FRIEND IS SO HARD TO FIND FOR MOST BUT FOR ME IT COMES EASY. I HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO BRING OUT THE BEST IN SOME OF THE WORST PERSONALITIES. I CHERISH FRIENDSHIPS WITH THE HIGHEST RESPECT. THE KEY IS TO "ALWAYS" TREAT PEOPLE THE WAY YOU WANT TO BE TREATED. RESPECT IS EARNED, BUT SO OFTEN LOST. YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER EVERYONE HAS THEIR OWN OPINIONS. DOESN'T MEAN YOU HAVE TO AGREE WITH THEM OR EVEN LIKE THEM, JUST RESPECT THEM AS THE ARE ONLY MERELY SOMONE'S OPINION.

I COLLECT SHOT GLASSES AND TEDDY BEARS. THE SHOT GLASSES STARTED WHEN I WAS YOUNGER AND HAS CONTINUED THROUGH THE YEARS. PICKING THEM UP WHEN I TRAVEL AND GETTING THEM FROM FRIENDS ALL OVER THE WORLD. I HAVE APPROXIMATELY 100 OF THEM.

AS YOU CAN TELL OF COURSE I ALSO COLLECT TEDDY BEARS. BOTH THE STUFFED BEARS AND PORCELINE FIGURINES. AND I DEFINITELY KEEP TY WARNER IN BUSINESS, AS I AM A BEANIE BABY COLLECTOR AND AN ATTICE TREASURES COLLECTOR AS WELL. FOR THOSE WHO KNOW ME SAY THESE COLLECTIONS SUIT MY PERSONALITY WELL. THE SHOT GLASSES REPRESENTING MY WILD, CRAZY, SILLY SELF, AND THE TEDDY BEARS FOR THE WARM, CARING, COMPASSIONATE SIDE OF ME.
