So I'm hoping some SG members can help me here. What natural thing do you think is the most simple and beautiful? It could be a flower, plant, animal, anything at all. What's the one thing that you could look at, no matter how bad everything else was going, and still see that beauty and simplicity?

Really appreciate any suggestions here smile

it's a great shame that the sequel book to "pollyanna" was called simply "pollyanna grows up", and not "pollyanna gets old, hurt, cynical, and tells the world to go fuck itself."

why? because regardless of how annoyingly over optimistic pollyanna was as a child, i can forgive it - in fact i would encourage it wholeheartedly - in a child. in an adult, I'd see...

have you ever come to the realisation that you just don't want to be friends with someone any more? someone that you see every day, someone who you've helped, fought for, cared for?

i don't like to judge people if I can help it, because i know that deep down we're all just doing the best we can for ourselves. it's human nature to do...

Yes, don't play with bad people. They tend to pull you in and before you know it you're in the middle of their little game. Sometimes, ignoring is the way to go.

That's one thing that we have in SA that everyone else wants - the best weather in the world. Technically, you could spend the whole year in a short sleeves and barefoot (that's if you have a bit more padding than I do).

sometimes the best ideas are so obvious they're right under your nose all along and you just don't see them.

i've been fighting the urge for a new tat for a couple of months now, but mrs ds has been less than enthusiastic. And last night, thanks to a little bit more alcohol that was strictly necessary, i hit upon the perfect solution. i'm going...

Running - yes, that's exactly what I need. At the moment I can go for maybe a mile or two before I pass out on the side of the road. surreal

some days you're the pigeon, some days you're the statue.

today turned out - against all odds - to be a pigeon day. and now the sun is shining. funny how all the good things seem to come together at the same time, and all the bad things do the same.

but for today, i am thinking only of the good things.

Good things make days and mood better as well as a rainbow after a rainy day! Lots of love!

i spent some time thinking about a woman i love today. a woman from the past, but it seems that time is not such a great healer after all.

a song came on the radio and she was just there, deep in my heart, jumping around in it, kicking it and punching it, laughing and dancing and making it hurt and ache and finally break...

Oh well I'm waiting for my very first set to try to become Hopeful.. but I don't believe that I'll become a Sg ( I dream to wannabe but it's so hard)... xoxoxoxo
morgue:
Well I'll appreciate all their wannabe LOVE of course. My sentence is " Don't dream it.. be it" ( inspirated by The Rocky horror picture show).. I hope the same for Selin ( she 's a real beauty I love her and I wish she'll become a SG)

some days everything just sort of slots into place, leaving you feeling that all is well in your world. maybe none of those things are fantastically wonderful in themselves, but the accumulation of happiness as each one turns, clicks and drops into its proper place is just so peaceful, so right, so... content.

today has been one of those days for me. i know they...

there are some days when, even though i'm a geek, i would love to take a piece of technology and smash the living crap out of it it with a sledgehammer, before covering it in aviation fuel and throwing a lit zippo at it from a safe distance.

today's candidate is a satnav that i bought for my bicycle. a satnav that appears to think...

I love so much food, but especially the home made! The only flaw in Italian cuisine (and especially the Abruzzese cuisine) is the use of fatty foods as well as the use of extra virgin olive oil! In my family is used to make tomato sauce cooked with the meat of lamb (chops) that makes it special.
arroia:
Ha, your satnav sounds just like me giving directions. biggrin
And yes, thank you for complimenting my back!
