got ya tulips, and that is the name that fits...I am now squaw/hugtrees

woman with fire in hair...is that for me lisa?
that works for me. I am staying out of those sex threads before I get
called burning bush
I will just stay here and be cool where it is safe with my friends
just a few more puffs for me

did you name me

I need a puff, I need peace. I am trying to break all my addictions,
but just a few puffs for peace.

I meant I hope your heart will lead you back.

Well Stef, I will keep in touch with you. You are following your heart.
We all need a little time sometimes but I do heart your heart will lead
you back. Love ya girl.

Stef, maybe you just need to take a break and think about it. If you
are doing something that is hurting him you can decide to do it
differently.
You have lots of choices, but if the site makes you happy too, I don't
think you have to give it up, and if someone really cares they won't ask
you to give up your happiness for them. And he probably didn't. If he
told you that your attitude is hurting him and you really care about
him, you can always change your attitude. All we can do is tell someone
how we feel, the choice is then theirs. I have to admire him for
telling you how he feels. And I think it is admirable that you care but
you do have choices and leaving might be a bit extreme, with all things
considered. You have friends here.

sweetie, sometimes **** happens on these sites and we think about it
afterwards and we might regret it but it is not who we really are. It
is kind of like fantasy. Remember I told you what our friendship song
was because that is the way I felt on the site. You know, I'm a barbie
girl in a fantasy world...you can comb my hair undress me anywhere...

That is really what it is...not that fantasy is a good thing to live in
all the time but sometimes we do get lost in it. I told myself last
night I have to stay out of those sex threads. I am sitting here
feeling hot and I spill a fantasy and after I did, I am thinking...Now
that's just wrong.
It just didn't feel right...but you get caught up in the moment. I am
telling someone that I love him....think I am finally figuring out what
true love is and it all seems wrong. Even he seems wrong. Take your
time, think about what you want, listen to your heart and it will guide
you.

“Strange is our situation here upon earth. Each of us comes for a
short visit, not knowing why, yet sometimes seeming to a divine purpose.
From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do
know: That we are here for the sake of others...for the countless
unknown souls with whose fate we are connected by a bond of sympathy.
Many times a day, I realize how much my outer and inner life is built
upon the labors of people, both living and dead, and how earnestly I
must exert myself in order to give in return as much as I have
received.”
Albert Einstein

Thank you for sharing your beautiful poetry bobby, it truly touches and
moves me. I think you know that I am a very sensitive and passionate
woman. The one about Love, true love, was the one that moved me this
time. I have a lot of admiration and respect for you and your ability
to express your self, your knowledge, understanding, wisdom, and your
character, in poetry.

contentment. eh? by myself? Nah, I still want a man. But I
am content to wait for real love this time.

When we are free we will know contentment, we must work to set ourselves
free. I really believe spirituality helps because freedom is the truth
of Love and I always believed God is Love. And then we accept
responsiblity for our own lifes and our own attitudes, and this takes
effort. But many people don't like change and they stay with the
familar. I have seen people die without ever finding contentment.

uk1971...RESIGN! that is brillant and make sure you take Cheney with
you. then Dubya can continue on with his self-destructive
behavior


This is my analogy of his presidency....he run our country as
destructively as a drunk going the wrong way down a four lane highway.
But daddy's little boy never has faced consequences, well except he
carries the legend of being the most dangerous, destructive, stubborn,
dumbest, failure president in the US history.

probably the same thing the current one is doing
seeing a psyche, popping pills,

Dubya and there isn't a snorter emtoticon so have another
and a puff of something Dubya, cos I never voted for
you and I predicted from the start that you would make yourself a legend
like you so badly wanted, but it would be of the worst president in
history.

The truth will set you free...but I think it could be dangerous so I
prefer not to overdose on it.

And I do know that an is before a vowel...like it would be an education,
but I don't always do it right and I don't really care.

Oceans, I just stopped by to say hi. Grammar? I have poor grammar, but
I got myself a education. They didn't teach good grammar in the
school I went to in KY but there are more important things than grammar
to me. I never could stand people who are so anal about it that they
attack other people because of the way they spell or write. I have seen
it done many times in forums, especially in political forums, usually
when they are losing a debate to a person who doesn't have the same
strength in speaking or writing English as they do. And in my opinion
attacking is the worse offense.

I had a very cool, liberal English instructor in college and I guess my
grammar wasn't that bad, I did get A's but I think he was more into the
substance than the form. Or maybe my grammar just wasn't that bad but I
have been attacked and have witnessed other people be attacked by smug
people who in my opinion like to feel superior about something when they
may lack strength or information in other areas.

Jess, you know I love you girl and even with my unhealthy ego I feel
your love. I think that is why our divorce rate is so high...there are
so many unhealthy ego's that don't know how to give and receive love.
Actually, our ego's are always trying to heal and fix themselves and
sometimes this thing called love comes along and shakes it up a bit and
it is time to take a leap. And i think we keep repeating our lessons
until we learn to let go of whatever defenses we have that keep us from
loving freely and that is an individual process. One of my defenses was
perfectionism, but today I am proud to say that I have freed myself of
that defense and am happy to be an imperfect woman who realizes that
everyone has their light and dark sides...some have more dark than
others. But the only person I am responsible for fixing is myself. I
finally found the light switch and truth is the real beauty. I am sure I
will never be all light and have no darkness but I can say that I am a
work in progress who will forever be improving.

"Because you learn that real love is not about domesticating or control
or possessing but it is about accepting someone and allowing them the
freedom and even rejoicing in the fact that they live, act, and
experience differently than you do."

And that is why I just ended a relationship with a commitment phobe
because I realize that I have a responsibility to myself and he can let
fear be his master but it is not going to be mine.
