Falling down is a part of life, getting back up is living. ~ Life is about choices, you get to make them each and every day of your life. ~ Capitalization is the difference between helping your Uncle Jack off a horse and helping your uncle jack off a horse.~ Only in America... do we use the word 'politics' to describe the process so well: 'Poloi' in Greek meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'bloodsucking creatures'.~ “When a government is dependent for money upon the bankers, they and not the government leaders control the nation. This is because the hand that gives is above the hand that takes. Financiers are without patriotism and without decency.” If you're not a liberal at twenty you have no heart, if you're not a conservative at forty you have no brain. Winston Churchill |

scimitar User ID: 73342281 United States 11/18/2018 09:48 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | People talk about age all the time, fearing it, or accepting it, but truly not understanding the experience of aging. Quoting: Turtle Flower I found this site in 2007, I was new to the Internets because I had been busy with life, and just started my writing career, and I learned so much - so many things I had to re-think, and study. I wish I'd had all y'all when my son passed on 11-9-02, I wish I'd been here on 9-11-01, but I wasn't - I was working 50-60 hour weeks. I'm 53 today, still the same weird kid I was at 13yo, still the mess I was at 23yo, still the same struggling woman at 33yo, still the survivor at 43yo, and now I'm just the same as I ever was, struggling, odd, and weird at 53. On a good note, I'm relatively healthy (on no prescriptions), my hair is still mostly blonde (even though I've wanted gray since I was 20), and I can walk without a limp despite the clubbed foot that every doctor I have seen wants to cut. And the only advice I want to give is that we stay the same, personality wise, whatever we were born into continues, and young folks looking for age and wisdom don't understand that you are, and we are, the same as we ever were. Happy birthday to me! Some turtles live a long, long time. Dearest Turtle Lover..... I wish to congratulate you on your continuing longevity, compassion, wisdom, kindness and of course your tenure at GLP. We have not spoken much, but I remember you. I will be 65 in December and find myself here at least 15 minutes every single day..... Sometimes I want to walk away, but it is my memories of people like you who make it all worth my while. HAPPY BIRTHDAY..... with a BIG HUG!!! Ominous regressions One Truth... many realities |
