I know i said i dont smoke. No squares, occasionally a cigar. About 5 a year. And I drink about that many times a year too. Oh, and love being active, not just working out. Doing things, stuff, you know, not just running in place for a half hour then do some curls and call it a day. Walking next to, around or in the ocean is always a good one. So is chasing around a four year old! Who needs a gym? Bad humor, I was in a gym for over 10 years, time to change it up. So for starters I completely stopped all activity. I need a base to begin with. But thing is, instead of gaining weight I Flippin lost 5. So P#&$&! Now, I have to lift again and really I was just getting used to being lazy. Kind of nice, except when it comes to stairs. Is that a brief blurb I just wrote? Someone describe exactly what a brief blurb is. How many words or lines? And the content? Can I jump all over the place in a blurb? Or does it have to be congruent? Please tell, thanks Ok, the serious side of me. I have had many trials, life tests if you will. And each one has helped define who I am as an individual. I'm fairly certian I used 10 of my 9 lives. Ive come to understand the hard way to expect absolutely nothing in life. That way everything you have is a gift. This has taken me a long time to grasp. Is there any other way to live than to live being honest? If so explain it to me. I never understood that, living a lie? That said, I have lied before. The second of the 2 is that 80% of my life choices up until recently were based on fear. Now that I make life choices not based on fear my perception of the world has changed. In a very good way. What else? I believe we all have a pure, honest, compionate and loving core. I have no idea why as we grow older,we become more jadded. I also firmly believe when two people meet, they will both know in roughly 7 seconds whether they will be friends or not. Yes, I suppose there are a few variables. The biggest is prejudices. If you have a single one, that 7 seconds has now dropped at least in half if not more. That is why I believe for two complete strangers to fall in love and marry, they have to both be open at the same time. Just my opinion. Now, love and marriage can happen for a number of reasons. Maybe a certain woman, after 12 years all of sudden realizes that her best guy friend has had her back all this time, and that moves her. To love. But again, really, she just completely opened herself up to a possibility of something she never thought of. Oh, I'm sure you all would love for me to go on. And there is so much more I'm pionate about. But I will stop the bore show here. I really do wish that everyone finds the path of life that suits them best. Greed and hate has never solved a problem, but compion and love has. Which way do you choose to live?
