Topic: How far a sweet hello goes...

Why it is so difficult for some people to "just say HI...??????"
I have noticed many men viewing my profile on many occasions...

Some of them stop by and send a cheery hello my way.
So greatly appreciated...thank you so much :-)

Others just keep coming by,
so interested in whatever it is I have to say,
or just wanting to view my pictures
but never ever send a cheery hello my way, :-(

It is like trying to get a mule to go up a ladder
to just get them to share a little love and kindness... truly.

Even when I break the ice and initiate a pleasant hello
and "how are you?", They still can't muster up any common courtesy to
return the love and kindness sent their way...

I live in an area that gets a lot of foot traffic and people coming by
all day long...I am in contact with people a lot...
There are very sick people, mentally, physically & emotionally.
They need our love...We all need love.

Some people are shy, some people are having a bad day...
But, it is amazing how far a sweet hello goes...

It can turn even the bleakest of situations...
into a much more pleasant day, knowing that someone cares...

I have turned my dull, dead, bleak (poor excuse for a )landscape here in
desert land,
in these apartments in a dirty, dry, noisy, polluted city,

into a blooming garden with life and flowers, squirrels, blue jays,
morning doves, butterflies and bees all around...

I have truly accomplished blooming where I have been planted...

i have tried hard to bring grace, beauty, love, color, joy, fragrance,
class and integrity to a place
where all those things are in such short supply...

Funny thing is...many people find me to also be very beautiful and very
sexy...I might add...only I am way more than my looks.

You guys who are constant "lookie lous' and "rubber neckers"..
(who most likely hold up traffic doing that on the freeways, too...i
might add...)
would be honored if I were to say hi & give you the time of day if you
walked or drove by me, but since this is a website, you think that
people don't deserve another person's courtesy?

And if you do this to me, I know you do that to others...
What are you thinking???
There are many people who are also very wise,
kind, intelligent, aware and not egotistical...
Why can't you acknowledge them
and make their day a little brighter???

People notice when you make an effort...
They also notice when you don't ...

It is not a big deal to say hello and wish someone well...
It is not pleasant for someone to be so oblivious and act all conceited
with their head in the air, as if they are better than that person, and
that the hello the other person extends, does not need to be returned...

And why get on this website
that is entitled "Just Say Hi",
or be a participant in life at all,
if we cannot be an avid positive part of it
and address our fellow human beings in a polite way...

I love and appreciate all those people in life and on this website who
have been courteous and have helped put a spring in my step and a
continual song in my heart...

That was a lot to read. I never send messages to people unless they send
me one first. I don't know why.

Hi Mikey, whoever you are, Dear,
thank you for that comment...
Okay...I can understand that...
That has happened to me, too..
that is a very valid reason for no response...

But, I have no age restraints on my profile...

I would rather not speak with married men, though.

Time is so short and precious
and there are plenty of single men to correspond with...

Thank you Mikey...
I have to go run some errands,...
I'll be back...

But not in the same way as "Arnold"

And yes repunzel, most men are very visual and you're a cutie pie, so no
biggy.

Yes, and woman are visual, too...
But we are more than our looks... :-)

I don't mind people stopping by...
Just take a moment and say " hi".

It's not going to kill ya...
It might even thrill ya..
You might even find that you like it...

and if someone takes the time out
of their crazy, hectic day
to send a polite hello your way...
It means so much to return the energy...
And not act like a black hole out in the ozone,
or out there in the lack of ozone...

don't act like a vacuum cleaner monster
like in Yellow submarine... :-0
sucking up everything and everyone in sight...

So, dear friends stop on by,
and please, please, please
Just say hi...Thank you...

I feel a little better now
that I vented that out in the open air...

Now, I've gotta go really get a move on,
and do some serious bicycling....

PS...
Love you all truly, even though I get upset...
and thanks for the posts to all of you I know
and to all I have not had the pleasure of meeting yet
