Alanis Morrisette.
She is beautiful, inside and out.
But I would put one condition on it. Not only would I get her body and life for one day - but I get all her thoughts, beliefs, knowledge and life experiences. I want to know her and how she makes sense of our world.
In return - she would get all of mine. She would experience a day in a family with people who appreciated her music but did not know she was herself in my body. She could evade the public for a day. She could be "average" without the stress of the camera and the limelight. She could use my beliefs, thoughts, knowledge and life experiences to further her musical writtings.
Maybe I am vain to think she could use them to write about but its just a wish.
Everybody's doing it...
How many pair of shoes do you have? Out of those pairs, how many do you wear more than a few times a year?
Submitted by fightinggale.
Not counting sandals/flipflops/thongs, whatever you want to call them.. I only own 4 pairs of shoes.. 1 pair of riding boots, 1 pair of running shoes, 1 pair of black shoes for mucking stalls, and 1 pair of brown hightops for around the farm/mucking stalls..
Now when it comes to flipflops.. I have alot of them.. normally 10+ pairs..
I do not have a thing for shoes like some people.. I prefer to be barefoot.. the only good shoe is no shoe...
Has anyone ever done something so horrible to you that "I'm sorry" couldn't fix it?
It must have been really bad if I can't forgive you. I am a VERY forgiving person. Although, I don't forget. I don't allow myself to duped a 2nd time.
Fool me once shame on you... Fool me twice shame on me.
YES! I can't wait! I rereading the series.. and the 4th book is coming out. I may not watch the movie though.. as I don't want to be disappointed. The book is great!
I am a very friendly person. I am usually very open and easy to talk to. I listen really well. I do not find it difficult to walk up to someone and start a conversation. There are not many things that intimidate me. I would consider myself a good friend because I do listen without giving advise, express empathy and I would be there for my friends at the drop of a hat without asking them questions.
What I do find difficult is reaching out to them in an emotional crisis. I feel too much like it is attention seeking behavior and that I just need to suck it up and deal with it. Which is why I have not posted lately. If I was posting it would be about the drama at my house with my husband. He is having a difficult time deciding whether or not he still loves me and wants to be with me. He wants me to be accessible 24/7 via phone when he is not home and when I am not he is absolutely impossible to deal with. He feels like I am pushing him away. When in truth I am at the farm working outside, I am not sitting by the phone waiting for his call. When we argue and he gets frustrated he throws the divorce word around like it has no repercussions. It has been an emotional roller coaster.
The only person I have really reached out to has been Karmen. She has been my best friend since we were freshman in high school. I love her to pieces and I am not sure what I would do if I did not have a friend like her in my life. I had spoke to her on Sunday and by monday she wrote me this wonderful email that made me bawl like a baby... IT was titled "To the strogest, most beautiful person I know.."
Joyce,
You and I have been best friends for almost half of my life (omg thats a long time) anyway, and we have been through awesome times, ok times, good times, sad times, bad times, painful times, and down right STUPID times together no matter if we were right next to each other or 100's of miles away, and the one thing I always noticed is how strong you are and that you always see the light at the end no matter how dim it is, and you keep on going till you reach the light even though sometimes it seems like as soon as you get there it gets pulled away even further than before, I want you to know that you have been my rock in hard times and in good, and that I am here for you no matter what happens...
....you will get through this an even stronger person than before…
You are my HERO
Keep your head up, I love you
Karmen
Coming from her.. this is the greatest compliment I could ever get from anyone.. .. and I love her very much because of what she is to me.. and I always remind myself that I am a healthy happy person because even though I may not have many close friends.. the friends that I hold dear to me are the quality people that I want to share the rest of my life with..
Love
