About Me
I AM A WORK IN PROGRESS OR AS SOME FRIENDS MIGHT SAY "A PIECE OF WORK", ON A JOURNEY TOWARDS ENLIGHTENMENT TRYING TO OBTAIN WISDOM AND SO FAR I KNOW NOTHING. I LIVE A LIFE OF INTEGRITY. I HOPE & PRAY & VISUALIZE & MEDITATE FOR EVERLASTING JOY, ENDURING PEACE, ETERNAL HOPE & ENDLESS LOVE!I AM A CANCER! LOVE IS ONE OF A KIND. VERY ROMANTIC. A MOST CARING PERSON. ENTIRELY CREATIVE. EXTREMELY RANDOM AND PROUD OF IT. FREAK! SPONTANEOUS! GREAT AT TELLING STORIES. NOT A FIGHTER, AVOIDS CONFLICT AND NEGATIVITY, BUT WILL KNOCK YOUR LIGHTS OUT IF IT COMES DOWN TO IT. EMOTIONAL AND LOVING. INTUITIVE AND IMAGINATIVE. SHREWD AND CAUTIOUS. PROTECTIVE AND SYMPATHETIC. FUNDAMENTALLY CONSERVATIVE AND HAS A HOME-LOVING NATURE, APPRECIATING THE NEST LIKE QUALITY OF A SECURE BASE TO WHICH THE MALE CAN RETIRE WHEN HE NEEDS A RESPITE FROM THE STRESSES OF LIFE, AND IN WHICH THE CANCERIAN WOMAN CAN EXCERSISE HER STRONG MATERNAL INSTINCTS. THE WOMEN TEND TO LIKE AND HAVE A LARGE FAMILY. 'NEST LIKE' IS AN APPROPRIATE ADJECTIVE FOR THE CANCERIAN HOME, FOR IT'S INHABITANTS TEND TO FAVOR THE DARK, MYSTERIOUS BUT COMFORTABLE TYPE OF HOUSE WHICH HAS SOMETHING IN THE AIR OF A "DEN" ABOUT IT, A PLACE WHICH BELONGS TO THE FAMILY RATHER THAN EXISTING AS A SHOWPLACE TO IMPRESS VISITORS. THEY ARE APPRECIATIVE OF ART AND LITERATURE. THEY MAY THEMSELVES POSSES CONSIDERABLE LITERARY, ARTISTIC OR ORATORICAL TALENT. THEY ARE ABLE TO IDENTIFY WITH THE SITUATIONS OF OTHERS BECAUSE OF THE KEENESS OF THEIR IMAGINATIONS. THEY ARE DOWN-TO-EARTH-AND THEY ARE OFTEN FASCINATED BY THE OCCULT AND ARE MORE OPEN TO PSYCHIC INFLUENCE THAN THE AVERAGE. IN THEIR PERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS THEY ARE MENTALLY A MIXTURE OF TOUGHNESS AND SOFTNESS, OFTEN EMOTIONAL AND ROMANTIC TO A POINT OF SENTIMENTALITY IN THEIR FANTASIES; BUT IN REAL LIFE AND IN MARRIAGE, THEIR LOVING IS NOT SO SENTIMENTAL BUT TENACIOUSLY LOYAL. THE CANCERIAN WOMEN LOVE UNRESERVEDLY, GIVING MUCH AND ASKING LITTLE IN RETURN-IN FACT ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT LESSONS, IS HOW TO RECEIVE GRACEFULLY. THEY ARE ALSO LOYAL FRIENDS. THE COLOR FOR CANCER IS ALL OF THE SHINING COLORS OF THE MOON; SILVERI am thankful for the wife who says itʼs hot dogs tonight because she is home and not out with someone else. I am thankful for the husband who is on the sofa watching the races or being a couch potato because he is home with me and not out at the bars. I am thankful for the teenager who is complaining about doing the dishes or taking out the trash because it means they are at home not on the streets. I am thankful for the taxes I pay because it means I am employed. I am thankful for the mess to clean after a party because it means we are surrounded by friends. I am thankful for the clothes that fit a little too snug because it means we have enough to eat. I am thankful for my shadow that watches me work because it means I am out in the sunshine. I am thankful for a lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning, and gutters that need fixing because it means we have a home. I am thankful for all the complaining I hear about the government because it means we have freedom of speech.
I am thankful for the parking spot I find at the far end of the the parking lot because it means I am capable of walking and I have been blessed with transportation. I am thankful for my huge heating and cooling bills because it means we are always warm or cool. I am thankful for the lady behind me in church who sings offkey because it means I can hear. I am thankful for the piles of laundry and ironing because it means we have clothes to wear. I am thankful For the weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day because it means I have been capable of working hard. I am thankful for the alarm that goes off in the early morning hours because it means I am alive. I am thankful for the crazy people I work with because they make work interesting and fun! And I am thankful for too much e-mail because it means I have friends who are thinking of me. In addition I am thankful for many more things as well.
Live well, Laugh often, & Love with all of your heart!Romanian Paper
---- We rarely get a chance to see another country's editorial
about the USA.Read this excerpt from a Romanian News paper. The article was
written by Mr. Cornel Nistorescu and published under the title 'C'ntarea
Americii, meaning 'Ode To America') in the Romanian newspaper Evenimentulzilei
'The Daily Event' or 'News of the Day'~An Ode to America~Why are Americans so united? They would not resemble one another
even if you painted them all one color! They speak all the languages of the
world and form an astonishing mixture of civilizations and religious beliefs.Still, the American tragedy turned three hundred million people
into a hand put on the heart. Nobody rushed to accuse the White House, the Army,
or the Secret Service that they are only a bunch of losers. Nobody rushed to
empty their bank accounts. Nobody rushed out onto the streets nearby to gape
about. Instead the Americans volunteered to donate blood and to give a helping
hand.After the first moments of panic, they raised their flag over the
smoking ruins, putting on T-shirts, caps and ties in the colors of the national
flag. They placed flags on buildings and cars as if in every place and on every
car a government official or the president was passing. On every occasion, they
started singing:'God Bless America!'
I watched the live broadcast and rerun after rerun for hours
listening to the story of the guy who went down one hundred floors with a woman
in a wheelchair without knowing who she was, or of the Californian hockey
player, who gave his life fighting with the terrorists and prevented the plane from hitting a
target that could have killed other hundreds or thousands of people.How on earth were they able to respond united as one human being?
Imperceptibly, with every word and musical note, the memory of some turned into
a modern myth of tragic heroes. And with every phone call, millions and millions
of dollars were put into a collection aimed at rewarding not a man or a family,
but a spirit, which no money can buy.What on earth can unite the Americans in such a way? Their land?
Their history? Their economic Power? Money? I tried for hours to find an
answer, humming songs and murmuring phrases with the risk of sounding
commonplace, I thought things over, I reached but only one conclusion... Only
freedom can work such miracles.Cornel Nistorescu(This deserves to be passed around the Internet forever.) It took a
person on the outside - looking in - to see what we take for granted ! GOD BLESS AMERICA !
