around 8 am
 
I'm not really upset, but just a little surprised - the last few days I've actually had the windows open for a while, because it's been so nice out. It's midway through november, and I usually expect to have everything locked up and closed by now. But, :shrug:, I'm not going to complain.

It is a nice sunny day today.

I'm not really a morning person, but it is so nice to wake up with the sun, and see it go through the day. I guess if you spend enough days without seeing the sun, you begin to appreciate it a lot more.


How are you doing lately, Lady? :wink:
 
I'm a sort of "working in progress"...

Sunday I went to a meeting with all the groups and structures of Amnesty in my region... and I proposed and was elected as the vice of the woman who deals with the money and so on..

I think I can be quite satisfied of this, even if there are somethings I'll try to rearrange... I suppose I have made a little mistake not asking the opinion of the treasurer (not sure this is the correct word, sorry :( ...).
I hope I haven't created any tensions...

As for the rest... I'm becoming an addicted to my new mini iPod... I've got it always with me & I put VERY good music in it!!!
The "random" function is just great! I like to be surprised of how a casual choice of songs can be so ... well, it sounds sooo good! Especially when it mixes classical, jazz & U2 music!

what are you surprised for?
 
I don't know if this pic is an add for something or what, but I do like it!!

Nice photos :up: It looks rather picturesque there


I can relate to the orange on - TRY to be. I'm at a new stage in my life where I am really trying to figure out something to be. I'm looking through my values and stuff, my wants and needs, and I'm realizing I do not have many. I mean, ideally, there are certain levels, standards of living I might want to maintain, but wealth in general, like, lots of money, isn't that important. Yet at the same time, for all practical purposes, I do not neccesarily want to lose drive or ambition towards having a good career. Especially if I do chase down the one thing that I may actually "want".

Yet still...... the one thing that I may "want", I don't want it to become a weakness for me. Lady Luck, I could almost see myself going away to become a monk somewhere. And you know, I would, if there was something I believed in enough for me to do that for. But it doesn't seem to work that way for me.

Eh....... maybe I'll continue this..... this................ self-discussion in a bit.....

Religion (or else) is not the place to hide yourself.
But to give yourself, to show your soul.
So I don't think it would be a great solution to try and get shelter there...

You know, when I think about the situation you're in -- even if I just know some parts of it! -- I always hear a song in my head:

If I can't have you
I don't want nobody, baby


the singer is called Yvonne -- can't remmember her surname :)

I'm not seeking shelter


quite the opposite.....


==============================


TRY your frame?
:hmm:


Lady Luck, about "my situation": I just have termendous loyalty issues :shrug: it's not really that big of a deal. It's ... complicated. ANd really, I have no reason to whine, because it is actually true, in that if I can't have this one thing, then there really isn't anything else I want right now, nor can I possibly have it.

I see you have a new avatar...........

Still haven't understood what the various "Try" are for -- I suppose they're adds, but I don't know what for!!

****

to be loyal -- I know, it has good & bad sides...
it's a thing that is always appreciated, but just a few people know the meaning of it and how to behave to be "loyal"

****

I wonder why a lot of people tend to think the worst possible of others and can't accept the idea of someone acting in bona fides, without hidden reasons...
 
^ I know why...... I've seen it a thousand times. I mean, isn't even like the trademark of the devil; to approach as a friend, earn trust, and then betray.

It's a powerful tactic to use. A horrible one, but one that has been used in the past non the less........


====


I'm interested in knowing what other people think about loyalty. My own views of it are slightly modified, but then again I don't really know what that means - "slightly modified". But I am always interested in knowing what other people think about it.

That is a very nice picture of the sky.
It hasn't been sunny out for a day or so, so I've no nice pictures to show, for now........ hopefully we'll get some snow soon, but..... I sorta doubt it :( I love snow, almost too much, I think :hyper:
 
GGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

I wrote a very good,long explanation ab out my sig and then somehow I "reset the form"......

WARNING - pressing SHIFT + ESC automaticall resets the post.

:mad:

I hate it when that happens.....
Because I know I'll try to remember what I said, but there's no way...... :mad:


oh well.
maybe I'll try again in a little bit......
 
Alright, I'll try to do a decent job.........



First, the words.
They are a rare quote I picked up on my "journey". It's another one of those things that I have a tremendous amount of "connections" to. Sentimental, and otherwise.

It has to do with loyalty, and my ideals, and truth. In a way, truth is an ideal..... I think I was hinting at that or something in FH's thread II, I don't know. More about that aspect of it at some other time.


As for the image, basically, I inverted some of the colors, and I like it. It was a beautiful lanscape that I found wandering the web. The colors add a sort of dramatic effect, kind of like something wrong happened. You can't really tell what season it is, and it looks like a very mysterious atmosphere. Which I think is important.

ugh, I'm sort of tired. I'll will try to be more in depth later - honestly, I could write at least 1000 words for that picture...



ANd as for the "current atmosphere" - I don't know, I just always wanted to do that, because sometimes a song will be in my head throughout the day, or I'll really feel connected to a certain song at the moment. Or sometimes I'll just keep wanting to sing a song, so, I guess I am compelled to express that. It gives me something to adjust, and fuss about, which is actually a calming thing for me, so, that's why I've done it.

As far as 60 seconds in kingdom come..... if you combine that with the picture, it puts a whole new spin on it, which is kind of cool....

I won't even get into that right now :D

I see you have a new avatar, m'lady.
Or did you already tell me about this one?
I don't think you did...
 
Yes, my new avatar... It's the logo of Amnesty... I suppose you know that organization

As I told ya, I am a meber of the Italian Section. I've been an activist for 2 years and a half and last Saturday, as I've already written, I was "elected" vice-responsible for the administration of money.

=======

The more I go, the more I find I am a "night person". I could be up for hours and hours -- until the middle of the night.
But I hate to wake up early...
I love the colours that the first light gives to thiings and I love to see the sun shining and feeling it in my face... but waking up at 6.30 is becoming harder & harder...
 
500° post.
So I suppose this thread will be closed and I want to be the last one to write.

I've had a very nice conversation here -- good points, good remarks, advice, information, going deeply into feelings, emotions and a possibility to talk to someone about what's going on in life and in the world.

********************

Up to you, FH, to decide if you want a part II.

Cheers

The End

Well... I didn't imagine that when I started this thread it would turn into this, or last this long. Makes me smile, a bit.


Quite frankly, I don't see a reason to stop, unless the mods, or other people think that it should be. I'm open to suggestions and comments. There's no hesitation for me to start a new thread, though I don't know what specifically it would become. I wonder, if it should be moved to the Lemonade Stand, and be more a general discussion kind of thing?


Or maybe it should stay here in ZC, and be more a "serious" discussion. I mean, I don't really know how everyone feels, as it has been lady luck and I posting for the majority of it all.

I guess I'll just cite Newton's law (2nd one, I think), and say that objects in motion will stay in motion. Though I don't have any complaints if an outside force acts. So, farewell to this thread.

Version II will be made immediately after I hit "submit reply"

It's been fun, and thanks to everyone who's viewed, posted, or anything, and to the interference staff who keep this site running smooth. It is appreciated greatly.


:wave:

"Until next time"
