The older I get, the more I realize...

[Ldyluck88]

I know age is a state of mind, but I can't get my body to do the things it use to do, I wonder why?? haha :hanging:

[Lillie]

if age is just a number..why can't I chose any number to put it on my drivers license? lol..:pendulum:

Lillie

[VuDu]

... that the meaning of the word "friend" changes the older I become.

as a youngin: "I have this friend in school that...." (read: There is some other kid I know in school that...)

as an adult: "There is this person I work with..."

Everything is much simpler as a child :)

[Blaze]

The older I get, the more I realize;

That these dang headaches are real, :annoyed:and there not the ones I used to use as an excuse to get out of things. ~sucks~

[Toofrufru]

Karma is a train I would rather ride than be hit by..

True love does come to those who wait but are not looking for it.

Friends seem to pop up or call just when you need them =)

[Andrew, Jr.]

If I have dirt mixed in with manure (garden) all over my hands then my nose will itch or I will knock off my glasses. :wateringgarden:

If clothes fit me right off the rack, they're very very ugly. :|

When I am giving Dino a bath, the phone will ring or someone will come to my front door. :bath:

After covering myself up with sunscreen, it never fails, Dino, or my adopted sister's poodles, will climb up on my lap. :tanning::paw::heartbeat:

[Leigh]

........ nothing is as it seems

[Gemme]

My fuse gets shorter and shorter each year....*grumble*

...most Adults seem to be far more full of shit than I imagined..
Starting off with the Santa Claus issue and ending with 'Think Positive and Positive things happen'

:pacman:
{Yer welcome Blaze , lol}

[ruthie14]

The more I realize just how self serving most ppl are. That they give you lip service about caring and they don't really care. That lying comes quite easy to a lot of folks. That following your bliss is a line of bull. That doing what you love will bring you success is a line of bull. That everyone is good at something that they are made for and that should bring you the ability to be self sufficient... also bull. I seem to be knee deep in crap but with all that manure, I still can't bloom. I am sufficating. Burning up. :sadangel:

[Toph]

from the moment we are concieved, we are destined to die... LOL

[Andrew, Jr.]

When driving or standing in a checkout lane, if you change lanes, the lane you left moves faster than the lane you moved too. :goat:

[Rook]

When driving or standing in a checkout lane, if you change lanes, the lane you left moves faster than the lane you moved too. :goat:



I HATE when that happens.....
what really irks me, is when my brand new chosen Lane should be faster by default {10 items or less!!}, and cashier asks for Mngr to clear Check...
:angry:

[JustBeingMe]

The lessened ability I have to handle major stress. :blues:

[Wryly]

I don't thrive on stress - like I used to.

[Heart]

that I'm never gonna be in a rock'n'roll band.

:rockband:

[Tranquilitee]

who needs hair dye

[Gemme]

who needs hair dye

I had to laugh at this. The older I get, the more I realize I DO need hair dye.

:giggle:

[Andrew, Jr.]

I like my boundaries, and my limitations that I have set for myself. :basketball:

I like who and what I am. :pipe:

I am nothing like my father - thank God! I hope and pray I never am like him.

I am identical to my Grandfather - thank God! :builder:

[BornBronson]

I love hairy blokes. :superfunny:

[diamondrose]

The older I get the more I realize that true honest friends that you can count on to always be there are a true rareity.

The older I get the more I realize how much I truely enjoyed high school and how easy and simplified life was then. That all those things my mother told me growing up were spoken truth.

The older I get the more I realize how similar I am to my mom.

[Passionaria]

That every person has their own story, and I am trying real hard to learn not to take their version of reality personally. It's hard, not to take the actions of another personally, but I am really trying. I can only take responsibility for my own story.......and beliefs.

:cat:

[Strappie]

The older I get, the more I realize........

Life is a gamble every day. I try my best to be the person my mom has brought me up to be. I've learned many things from life, relationships and even my job. I know that we can't always have the things we want but it's a gamble to go out and try to get them. I allow myself to show people who I really am and well that too is a gamble and doesn't always turn out the way I want it to. Sometimes we just have to say "fuck it" and say somethings are just not worth the gamble.

Someday.. I'll have all the things I've wanted, well that too is a gamble to say! :)

[katzietootle]

... that if you pursue happiness, it will elude you

[Blaze]

The older I get the more I realize;

That my taste buds have really changed.
Thing's I enjoyed as a child, taste like they should
be enjoyed by a child, I can't stand them now.

That the local channels on the T V are still the one's
I watch more than the cable were paying for.

That I still am amazed by the little flower that blooms
in a concrete cracks, then the one's in a flower pot.

That there is never enough time, and the months seem
to fly by faster than I can keep up with.

That I. Like my Mother. Have a tendency to check the
obituarie's daily.

[Lillie]

that people never react the way you think they will. You get up each day hoping that today will be the day you do something that will leave your mark..I know how blessed I am in my life..I know that I am a good person and I have alot of love in my life. But there are times I forget to love the one person who means the most...and that would be ME..and by the time I realize I have expelled all my energy making all those around ME happy and content..there is nothing left for me..I feel drained and weak..So since I grow older everyday..I guess the older I get the more I realize I need to stop worrying about how others will react to my decisions and choices and make sure that the choices I make everyday are the ones that make me smile...

Today I am smiling because I am loved..

Lillie

[NJFemmie]

You have to do a lot more of this (http://nelsonhaha.com/) at yourself, but more importantly, to most of the things around you.

[Andrew, Jr.]

How much I love fresh fruit & veggies. :cowboy:

[Jet]

That the best company, friends and that uncommon solidarity—the unspoken kind when you take a bow with fellow actors and you're united in front of the audience
and your here the roar of the crowd.

I realize how much miss the theater.

[Sachita]

The older I get, the more I realize........

Thats so true. Thank you for this.

[Sachita]

I realize how important family is and that family doesnt always mean blood but the inner circle of people you trust without any doubts.

[diamondrose]

the older i get the more i realize how many true friends i have

[Andrew, Jr.]

My body can only take so much.

Life is short. We are just passing thru this life.

[*Magic_and_Silk*]

REEEEALLY pretty panties (that look good on me) are so hard to find!

Just sayin'....

[PinkieLee]

The older I get, the more I realize...

that I can't control what may happen around me, but I can control how I react to it.

I can only take responsibility for MY actions and feelings.

that some people suck and that's ok.

I make the choice, every single day, to live my life happy!

[Lillie]

:cheesy:That a bowl of Lucky Charms WILL ALWAYS be magically delicious for me...and it is my morning comfort food..when needed no matter how old I get:cheesy:

[Kobi]

The older I get, the more I realize I have little tolerance for stupidity...especially my own. Yet I do with it much more ease.:explode:

[Gemme]

The older I get, the more I realize I just don't have the energy to devote to others that I used to. We disagree; fine. Now, move on, please.

[Guy]

That the bathtub drain doesn't really suck you in and I could have avoided a lot of bruises.

[Blade]

The older I get the more I realize, I aint gettin any younger ya know....and.....now they sayin working over time can cause heart problem......so I figure I got about another 3 years left to live. LOL

[little man]

it's more difficult to objectify something you value than something that holds little value to you.

[Wryly]

that while a clean sink makes me feel good - a working dishwasher is a godsend!

[cali4nyaprincess23]

That I'm still the youngest out of my partners ex's so that will keep me young! lol

[tcbbutch]

That I'm still the youngest out of my partners ex's so that will keep me young! lol

Oh Damn...but true...funny baby

[little man]

greed ends up costing one far more than what is financially gained.

[JustBeingMe]

That life isn't as easy or forgiving as it was in my younger years. That things happen for reasons unbeknownst to me.

[Kobi]

The older i get, the more I realize I sometimes have very strong opinions about things I know relatively little about. Hm.

[JustBeingMe]

And sometimes I have strong opinions that are not flexible about things I do know lots about. Hmmmph.:giggle:

[Andrew, Jr.]

How much I miss my late grandparents;

How little I use science, algebra, and other things I was forced to take in school;

Violence is just worse and worse.

[Rook]

While planning for the Future, the Present will speed by, leaving me to Lament about the Past, and Wish for more time...

I need to Live my life day by day, savor its rewards, enjoy its quirks, and relax, regardless what others may think or say....

There's a Lot more to Life than morning sex, bedtime sex, make up sex, break up sex......Sex in general...Just don't ask me what, yet :mohawk:

[Lillie]

....I laugh more frequently AT MYSELF!:flowers:

[katzietootle]

The struggle between you and the Universe is continuously on. Most of it is subconscious. And if you’re one of those busy stressed out people you probably won’t even pause and figure out what’s happening. ------I learned---"Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay connected"

[Andrew, Jr.]

Technology is just taking off.

[JustBeingMe]

That I like my greying hair more and more.

[scootebaby]

The older i get the more i realize.........

those chocolate donuts i eat are building a shelf outta my ass

the less tolerant i am of bullshit

the fuller of bullshit i am

how trifling i get when bored

NOT to drink so much right b4 bed

you cant fix stupid

[foxyshaman]

That there has to be a way to keep our unborn safe. Not as in "don't get an abortion", but rather... keep them safe from Fetal Alcohol, Fetal Drug, Attachment issues, poverty,.... there is no magic bullet, brain injury is forever.

Crashing and burning isn't as bad as denying the rising pheonix

narcissism is intolerable

I don't have to have a shell, I am perfectly capable of being vulnerable in my strength

I am not alone

[Enchantress]

The older I get the more I realize...

Life is very short
Love is fleeting
Deep intimacy is soul enriching
Laughter is essential
Happiness is something you make not something you pursue
True freindship is rare
Forgiveness is key
and
It really and truly is (life) about the little things...

[JustBeingMe]

I'm right there with Scoote on that stuff.
Agreed.

[theoddz]

The older I get, the more I realize the importance of compassion. Bitterness, resentment and anger can totally suck the utter humanity out of us, over time. I refuse to lose the good and decent part of my very soul to such negativity. I will not give what is right and good in me over to such things.

~Theo~ :bouquet:

[Lady Pamela]

The older I get, the more I realize...

I should have taken care of my knees when I was young.

Carrying to heavy of weight may result in back pain later.

Being a dare devil catches up to you in later years.

All those fried foods (though I still have a few...shhh) Have definately not helped my arterys...lol

Smoking when I was young to be cool...wasn't such a cool idea...smiles

[cane]

The older I get the more I realize how young I used to be...

[BornBronson]

I wear more clothes.

[Andrew, Jr.]

Both of my knees ache from playing football and lacrosse when I was younger.

Love is all this life is about.

[Enchantress]

The older I get the more I realize...

Silence is friend, not foe.
Books and shows that I loved as a child have meaning for adults as well.
I understand love songs.
Each breath I take is a gift.
The most important journeys in life are taken soulfully alone.
and
An open heart isn't easily achieved.

[DamonK]

The older I get, the more I realize...

I'm not Superman.
I have limitations.
I've overcome incredible setbacks.
I can't be everything, to everyone, all the time.
Though I'm still young, I'm not as young as I once was.

[WingsOnFire]

Life is too short to sweat the small stuff...

[bigbutchmistie]

That some things are still worth fighting and hoping for :)

[AtLast]

There's no going back!

:thinking:

[Random]

When I lay down with someone to help them go to sleep... I'm the one who get's put to sleep...


Happens every time...

[cane]

The older I get the more I realize the importance of a sense of humor.

[Sachita]

How precious every little thing is.
How important getting enough sleep is.

[NJFemmie]

.... the value and importance of a good pain reliever.

[Blade]

That the things you like aren't good for you, but if you'll wait a decade or two, the things that were thought to be good for you aren't anymore and the things you liked are ok again

[Rockinonahigh]

That I could use more energy....
I need better sleep habits so the above would improve.

[Rook]

....I'm too old for this shit....

[Andrew, Jr.]

People are people no matter where you live.

Home cooking beats take out any day of the week.

[Gemme]

TOIGTMIR....how amusing the young are.

[bigbutchmistie]

My true love is closer today than she was yesterday. And will be even more closer tomorrow... :)

[Sachita]

....I'm too old for this shit....

i've been saying this a lot lately.

[NJFemmie]

... that when you want to sleep, you can't, and when you need to be awake, you get the urge to fall asleep.

wtf?!
:shithappens:

[bigbutchmistie]

Im a have to stop drinking soda :( Im addicted and have tried to stop now my health is forcing my hand.

[Kenna]

.....I wish I had more self control in my younger years... and that working on self control is still a necessary thing.

The older I get, the more I realize that the empty feeling I felt was sometimes because I didn't make the right kind of strong connections with the right kind of people.

And... that it's okay to say "No" when it's in my best interest to do so.

[Kätzchen]

The older I get, the more I appreciate who I am!

[Andrew, Jr.]

I don't want to live into my 80's.

My 5 senses have declined.

My physical strength has declined. No matter how much I work out, it has declined.

My faith is mine alone. Amen.

I love my being. I love who and what I am!

Life is short.

[SF_Boi]

I love working in my garden

I love being around my dogs more than humans

I need to be in the county, away from people, away from cars, noise, cell phones, computers.

I don't want to grow old in San Francisco.

[bigbutchmistie]

Trust isnt automatically given its earned

Not to give my heart to someone who doesnt deserve it

People should listen more than they talk.

[Blade]

Trust isnt automatically given its earned

AWESOME!!!

[*Magic_and_Silk*]

There really isn't any such thing as lasting true love.....

[bigbutchmistie]

There really isn't any such thing as lasting true love.....

OH but there is :) You will see one day Im right...

[*Magic_and_Silk*]

OH but there is :) You will see one day Im right...

I hope you are right. I really do...But, I am not holding my breath. Nor am I expecting it. I just don't believe it will ever happen.

[bigbutchmistie]

I hope you are right. I really do...But, I am not holding my breath. Nor am I expecting it. I just don't believe it will ever happen.

And that's when it will happen. Is when you least expect it :)

The older I get the more I realize that less is more.

[foxyshaman]

In the 80's I thought the music sucked... then I continued to age and now I realize that I still hate 80's music.... no matter how much the young punk in the next office likes it... :blink:

[Kätzchen]

that animals are truly a gift to humans: they stay in the present moment, they have innate, built in instincts that signal who is kind and loving and who has hurtful intention.

I love animals... they are precious!

:blueheels:

[Apocalipstic]

my feet hurt

[cinderella]

That I will never stop loving you...it will be 40 years July 4, 2011, and I love you today as I always have.

It's been an interesting morning, my love. We've both wandered and meandered thru life without each other - both of us have had many lovers in-between, many life experiences. Yet, we have never lost sight of each other. Many years have gone without knowing about you, but somehow, we always manage to reconnect.

I said it was an interesting morning...last night you phoned me - second attempt of the day, you said. When I checked my messages, it was true, you had called. Then again last night...I always know that things are not going well for you when you do that - it seems to be the only time you think of me - when things are not going so rosey for you. But no matter, I am grateful for you reaching out, regardless. To hear your voice makes my heart soar - I am an old fool - and we all know there's no fool like an old one.

Today, we spoke at length on FB, and I was so happy. I posted a teary, romantic song for you, and thank God, you didn't dismiss it the way you usually do...you posted you liked it, and I love you for that. That song says everything that's always been in my heart for you, and as long as I live - even if I never see you again - my heart will always be yours, and so will my soul. After all this time, you can still make me cry, as tears stream down my face as I write this...

Sorry for the self-indulgent post - but I just had to unburden this, or I think I would burst.

[scootebaby]

the older i get,the more i realize....

the world isnt getting faster,im just getting slower

that late night is now 10 pm

that my strut is now caused by trying to keep my hip from popping out of place,instead of just trying to be hip!

[bigbutchmistie]

The older I get the more I realize :

I'm getting waaayyyy too old to deal with drama nor is there gonna be a place for it in my life.

The more direct and point blank I become

How I will never "settle" for what I'm looking for in a partner

I refuse to be an option for someone special and not a priority

Silence is golden

[Andrew, Jr.]

Some wounds will never heal. The wound is just too great.

Time does not stop for anyone.

I am getting older.

[Lillie]

i realize...I have a hard time believing that this f'n copier has not improved over the years....REALLY? WTF!!!!!!
:jam::jam::jam::beatcomputer::explode:

[Isadora]

...that I am tried of snarky people who have an opinion on everything and contribute nothing but animosity and division.

...that I am tried of liars who lie about experience, opportunity and relationships.

...that I am tried of cruel people who use "honesty" and BDSM as a rationalization for horrid, mean and down right rude behavior and statements. Just because you can say it doesn't mean it should be said.

[Stoney]

The older I get the more I realize I have spent far too much time in my life giving a shit about what people think about me.

The older I get the more I realize we create our own lives and challenges according to what we believe to be true of our self and our surroundings and how we act or react to it all.

The older I get the more I realize life is an illusion and sooooo is death...we fill in the blanks and spaces with shit we regard as common sense....

just cause YOU cant see me doesnt mean Im dead.... good god wish people would quit scaring folks with all the dead forever, hell and damnation bullshit....

now everyone believes we are powerless over it.....


so there we go believing some crazy lie about what " might happen"

whatever...

Im old i love it

[princessbelle]

That life is what you make of it, not what others want your life to be or not be. I can sit around and see the glass half empty or I can see it always as a sparkling glass of champagne that is half full ....and that wonderful drink of life keeps getting closer to the top.

[Soft*Silver]

the older I get the more I realize that youth isnt wasted on the young...that age is the best years of my life

[Rook]

...Those damn kids need to stay off my fuckin yard.....and take their walking toilet pets with 'em !!!!!
:bomb: :bomb: :bomb:
:raspberry:

[LeftWriteFemme]

that life is very sweet.
that I can do more than I think I can,
but I can't do everything.

[Tommi]

that life is very sweet.
that I can do more than I think I can,
but I can't do everything.

Have a safe trip tomorrow
stay safe and sweet
and you do much for others and
are learning to do for yourself, and to me that close to everything.

[Enchantress]

I older I get the more I realize the importance of...

Having 'someone'.

A touchstone
A confidant
A partner in mischief making
A sweet nothing whisperer
A friend
A lover
and
An intimate journey companion.

[Butterbean]

The older I get the more I realize that there is a fine line in personal sacrifices that should be made and personal sacrifices that should never be made.

[JustBeingMe]

The older I get the more I realize just how little stress I can handle anymore. ARRGGGHHHHH:pirate-steer:

[Andrew, Jr.]

I need to slow down and relax.

I need to ignore mean people, with negative energy.

I need to focus on the good people with positive energy.

[Tommi]

I need to slow down and relax.

I need to ignore mean people, with negative energy.

Andrew,
You took the words right off my keyboard..:tea:

[Diva]

[LeftWriteFemme]

RqZhM75aGMg
It is just now that I am realizing people made such amazing stuff;
they became giants in my mind but they were just kids.

[Mitmo01]

The older I get the more i realize that inner strength comes from hard times and painful work.....to get to a place where my sails are full sometimes takes pain not always but sometimes and instead of hiding and running away from it I choose to move through it and then turn and look at what happend to that fear.....i will myself to not be stagnant nor ever forget that pain is a great teacher....mostly about my inner core I want to have full sails in life not dragging, sloopy sheets of fabric but vibrant spread out sails to catch whatever has to come my way.......

[Random]

That I love her beyond compare..

Thank you for keep getting back up and doing the work that I ask of you...

[Andrew, Jr.]

To leave the umbrella assembled instead of taking it apart each fall;

To leave the rug outside instead of rolling it up each fall;

To buy a gallon of WD-40 with the pump spray bottle.

[pajama]

that I have let my body get waaaaay too soft.

[Gemme]

that I have let my body get waaaaay too soft.

Ditto. :blink:

The BP oil spill will devistate our planet for decades to come. Alot of animals will become extinct and nobody seems to give a shit who works at BP. Sheesh.

I am wondering if I belong here. I have been wondering this quite a bit.

[Hack]

Perfect is always unattainable.
Lettuce is a superfluous sandwich ingredient.
I don't have to answer all the questions.
Consistency is highly attractive.
Grace is a goal, but never an option.

[Gemme]

The only person one can truly have faith in is themself. Theirself? Him/herself? :blink:

[AtLast]

Those wrinkles are mine....

[Kenna]

.....not to take life for granted...it can end so suddenly, leaving behind those you care about that didn't get a chance to say good bye. (when you hear completely unexpected news that a family member has passed away and left a 9 year old daughter behind... your heart just hurts for her because she didn't get to say good bye to Daddy.)

....the more wisdom I embrace, the more I realize I have made some really special, deep connections with incredibly important family members and special, close friends that I will never take for granted.

When I was younger, I once thought with dread that life was a chore that had to be tolerated in misery and I faced each day with the thought of "when is this crap going to end?".... I've lived a full 9 and a half lives in my years... today in my "old age" and wisdom, I realize life is a blessing and I want to spend it with the important people that are so very special to me, that I can't imagine life without them or the blessing to share our lives together.

[afixer]

I think maybe it's time to break down and see about some glasses. :glasses:

[Jet]

We can't take it with us....when a phase is over, a chapter closed it's to move on. Sometimes it's hard to see. A chapter has closed, a way of life gone.
Time to move on now.

[gotoseagrl]

i was born in the wrong decade.

[*Magic_and_Silk*]

As we age, we realize just how truly lucky we are to have the people and things in our lives that we do :)

[bigbutchmistie]

What I thought I wanted isnt at all what I needed

[Ebon]

The older I get the more I realize that I don't give a damn....

The older I get the more I realize that I laugh at stuff that is probably inappropriate...

The older I get the more I realize that I can't remember what I was going to type because my memory is getting bad.

[Ebon]

The older I get the more I realize that some people can twist anything into an insult.


Yes and it is sooooooo annoying!

[Hack]

Desire always has more layers and textures than I think.
No matter how well you think you know someone, they can still surprise you.
It's a blessing when someone gets my sense of humor.
A life of grace is the daily goal from now til the end.

[bigbutchmistie]

That just because you have a broken heart doesnt mean the world comes to an end. Life still happens. You dust yourself off, and take each day at a time. You break, you heal, and you start all over again. And one day, you find the one and it makes it all worth while. :)

That the words "friend"and "love" are thrown about casually, but few know or honor their TRUE meaning. *sigh* I was definately born in the WRONG century....

[Corkey]

That words escape me litterally, I can see them I know what I'm saying, but the words are...*poof*
It sucks getting old.

[princessbelle]

LOL what goes around comes around...

[JustBeingMe]

The older I get the more I realize just how fucked up some folks really are in life. And how easy it is to have drama come your way when you don't want it there.

[Guy]

People are getting crankier. (no one here)

Maybe it's the heat.

[Gemme]

Most stuff isn't worth getting all riled up about. I mean, do you realize how long it takes me to change my shorts nowadays? :blink:

[Passionaria]

I have finally learned how to fight. To put it all on the table, have some boundaries, and let it get heated if it has too. Remember to listen even if it's emotional, and say what you really mean. It's not the end of the world, the relationship, or a friendship. Work through it. Then have really hot make up sex, and get on with the day. I have to thank a certain Boricua for that.


:kissy:

[Enchantress]

The older I get the more I realize...

Quality is most important (above all else and in all things)

[waxnrope]

the older I get the more I realize that I've gotten older :|

[Delish]

the older I get the more I realize that I've gotten older :|

amen... lol

[socialjustice_fsu]

underestimate mean people. Ever.

[storyofmylife]

the older i get the more i realize ....
I LOVE MY BED!

[Blade]

There are muscles that ya just don't use a lot but when ya do, they aren't afraid to let you know they are still there.

[Jesse]

That my feet hate shopping!

[theoddz]

The older I get, the more I realize how your body can feel so old, yet your spirit feels just like it did when you were 21....only you're quite a bit wiser. :winky:

~Theo~ :bouquet:

[Bella~Vita]

The older I get ... the more I get it ..thanks to the school of hard knocks ... :seeingstars:

[Andrew, Jr.]

I feel like mothers don't get the full recognition they really deserve like Diva. She is a wonderful mother. I have never met her, but from what I have been able to learn online she is the kind of mother I wish my mother would, could, should have been. My hat is off to Diva.

[chefhmboyrd]

how much older my parents are................

:blink:

[Apocalipstic]

how much older my parents are................

:blink:

Thinking about you and Penelope. Hope your dad is dealing ok, I know how he depends on her. Are you going up?

[chefhmboyrd]

Thinking about you and Penelope. Hope your dad is dealing ok, I know how he depends on her. Are you going up?

i don't think so
basil may take the truck and go, but unless i get the "it's not going well" call i will likely wait.

[MsTinkerbelly]

The older I get.....

That life and love are what you make them, and if you open your heart and receive the love offered to you, you will receive blessings beyond measure.

I have also realized I have become a bit corny! LOL:jester:

[SuperFemme]

the older i get the more i realize that getting older is a gift.

[Canela]

You can't choose/change/trade in your family, no matter how much you wish it to be so.

[Andrew, Jr.]

Going barefoot is wonderful! :hangloose:

[JustLovelyJenn]

The older I get the more I realize...

LESS IS MORE!!!

[Jesse]

The older I get the more I realize...

how wonderful naps can be!

[Andrew, Jr.]

I can't put an age limit on my dreams.

[cinderella]

That the worst thing about getting old is...'gravity'! *groan*

[Andrew, Jr.]

A femme in a simple cotton sundress is very sexy.

[Soft*Silver]

the older I get the more I realize I just cant wear some clothes like I use to, at least without looking like I am trying to be an age I am not. How is it in my head I am in my 30s and my reality is that I am in my 50s. But I am not quite ready for the comfortable clothes of the elders. I feel like I did when I was an early teen. I was too old for girl clothes and too young for young lady clothes. How odd...

[Ebon]

I'm turning into my grandpa. Wearing the same style clothes and the same hat as he did. Make me wonder if I will find a lady like my grandma. lol

[Abigail Crabby]

The older I get - the more I realize I have less patience with the world and it's inhabitants than I did when I was younger.

lol

[Boots13]

the more I realize I'm getting older. :seeingstars:

It happens so quickly..the creaks, the groans, the back, the knees... it takes so much more just to maintain a level of fitness. If I worked out this much in my 20's or 30's I'd have been a real knuckle-dragger.

Lately I've really noticed that it takes longer to recover from trips, workouts, even mowing the lawn ! I am flat out today, after having spent 6 hours mowing, pruning, chain-sawing, whacking Jurassic Park...and now I have a truck bed full of stuff to dump...ugh. My back doesnt want to play anymore.

What the hell happened ????

[MsTinkerbelly]

That sometimes your best intentions are not good enough, and really, does it matter anyway?:seeingstars:

[SassyLeo]

That I am glad I have better boundaries than I ever did in my 20's...

[Jesse]

The older I get the more I realize that my brain, back, feet and ass work together. My ass wants to remain seated and my brain, back and feet all agree with it! :cracked:

[Enchantress]

The older I get the more I realize on a soulful level that time is finite. It saddens me.

[Andrew, Jr.]

Some people are stuck in their pathways & journey in life. They will never grow. Sad.

[Jesse]

The older I get the more I realize how significant my friends are and how very lucky I am to have them around to share stuff with.

:carride: :fencing: :fishing: :playingchess:

[SuperFemme]

that some people will always be *glass half empty* people, and that others will be *glass half full* people.

[Isadora]

...whining 28 year olds can talk to the hand. 9 Am to 7PM on my feet and working and being present at Pride. I did it. I realize that I can do it but the recovery time is twice as long.

[asphaltcowboi]

I Believe....
That maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had
And what you've learned from them and less to do with how many
birthdays you've celebrated.

[*Magic_and_Silk*]

I Believe....
That maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had

ABSOLUTELY!

[Greyson]

The older I get the more I realize yesterday is gone, tomorrow will come soon enough and what is right here before me today?

[Pretty Woman]

That everything changes whether I want it to or not.

[Jet]

to be extremely careful in what you ask for.

[AtLast]

That one's foundation is ever present, yet is akin to a willow branch. It can sway in the winds of change and remain part of its host in maturity.

[theoddz]

The older I get, the more I realize that you just can't fix idiocy.

~Theo~ :bouquet:

[Isadora]

That my mature eyes can't read this font.

[MysticOceansFL]

That life is to short and you try to do everything in such a short time!

[Chancie]

. . . that people do the very best they can, even the cynics.

[Gemme]

that some people will always be *glass half empty* people, and that others will be *glass half full* people.

I'm more of a "touch my glass again and I'll cut you" kind of person. :blink:

[Andrew, Jr.]

Have pets, will travel together = my attitude.

[Jesse]

The older I get the more I realize the damage we are doing to our earth! It's up to us all to change this!

[rockybcn]

Being rigid in my thinking can cause extreme disappointments. Its better to be flexible and often I am more happy with the results.

[Apocalipstic]

What a dork I am

[chefhmboyrd]

What a dork I am

an adorable dork

[JustBeingMe]

The older I get the more I realize, I Can't stand being yelled at at the top of someone's lungs!! I can't stand doing the yelling either!! And I can't stand the stress of anyone yelling in my life...PERIOD.

[lipstixgal]

The older I get the more I realize, I Can't stand being yelled at at the top of someone's lungs!! I can't stand doing the yelling either!! And I can't stand the stress of anyone yelling in my life...PERIOD.

Oh G-d who's yelling at you, I couldn't stand that either if someone is yelling at me. My trustee yells at me like I'm her daughter, well god damn it I'm not her daughter just the person who looks after my inheritance that's all. Hell I don't even like talking to her on the phone, I text her so no I don't like someone yelling or me doing the yelling!!

[Jesse]

The older I get the more I realize, I Can't stand being yelled at at the top of someone's lungs!! I can't stand doing the yelling either!! And I can't stand the stress of anyone yelling in my life...PERIOD.

One word: Duct tape!

No it just looks like two words! lol

[JustBeingMe]

The older I get the more I realize I will NEVER understand the ways of thinking in someone's twisted mind or mental illness they have.
And that sometimes, the true victims in a relationship are the sane ones.

[ButchEire]

The more I enjoy being single and the less I want to expend time or energy in seeking a relationship :D

[Jet]

how the truth will set you free.

[dixie]

...that I am destined (i.e. doomed) to become an anti-social, extremely eccentric, weird-floppy-hat-wearing crazy ol' fruitcake lady....just like every woman on my father's side of the family... (think "Ouiser Boudreaux" on Steel Magnolias only WAY more eccentric...lol)

*shaking my head, already beginning to see the signs*....

*sigh*

I guess (more) insanity is something to look forward to...

[Andrew, Jr.]

My grey hair is here...oh well. :hangloose:

[ButchEire]

It's just wisdom sprouting!


My grey hair is here...oh well. :hangloose:

[SuperFemme]

i hadn't realized a relationship had to have a victim.
as for mental illness? it's not something a person who doesn't have it can truly understand.

[dixie]

My grey hair is here...oh well. :hangloose:


yeah yeah... tell it to somebody whose gray hair didn't come come in at age 17... :p lol ;) luv ya! :D

[SuperFemme]

the older i get the more i realize that sensitivity chips are not installed at birth. it's either learned or unlearned. not sure which.

[Wryly]

that my patience can get the better of me.
Lucky for me I only complained to one person rather than a whole bunch of people! So now I only look like a jerk to her - instead of the large groups of people that usually happens to! :seeingstars:

[bigbutchmistie]

I get more moody, more set in my ways :)

[Jet]

I have my grandmother's faith. She was a great influence.

[Gemme]

Bodily functions happen.

Get used to it. :blink:

[chefhottie25]

the older i get the more i realize that i am officially getting grey hair...and i need at least 8 hours of sleep every night.

[JakeTulane]

The older I get the more I realize that some things are worth fighting for.

[Jet]

never, under any circumstances, take yourself for granted. it can cost you your life.

[Venus007]

When it comes to people and relationships (of all varieties) to view in black and white is to hobble understanding

[Andrew, Jr.]

I am just not artistic.

[apretty]

...i'm pretty sure that i'm going to ask an angry stranger to "hug it out??" in the future, and one can only hope that it's an advanced-in-age scottsdalian.

(*hoping those tommy bahama costco-road show- hawaiian shirts don't rub off their muted colors on me*)

[princessbelle]

How young my inner age really is.

[Ebon]

Sleep is my friend

[Strappie]

After a night of drinking I need the whole day to recover.. lol

[Spirit Dancer]

The older I get the more I realize,
how much peace and serenity are a valuable asset.

[Jet]

never, never do anything to defeat yourself.

[Ebon]

I want to pack my shit up, move to the country and start an organic farm.

[Jesse]

The older I get the more I realize my knees have Alzheimers! :|

[Gemme]

That the things that I never noticed before, like bloating and every day aches, seem magnified now.

[friskyfemme]

Nothing is more important that being true to yourself!

[Random]

I want to pack my shit up, move to the country and start an organic farm.

So? Have you ever farmed?

[Andrew, Jr.]

It is fun to help and give to others cheerfully than to feel like I have to do it.

I dance like a middle aged guy. I am really not young any more. I guess my orange swim trunks should go to Good Will. :koolaid:

[asphaltcowboi]

The older i get the more i realize how much i forget

[Soft*Silver]

the older I get the more I realize I have done more in my lifetime than most people have. I am so grateful I have had so many different experiences in my life...

[dixie]

...my butt gets a cramp from sitting on the BED. Never happens in chairs or in the car, just sitting on the bed. Is this normal? LOL Sorry it's kinda TMI...

[Gemme]

The older I get, the more I realize that the things I'd obsess over years ago rarely cross my mind now.

[Soft*Silver]

its normal for you, and thats the only normal you need to worry about!


...my butt gets a cramp from sitting on the BED. Never happens in chairs or in the car, just sitting on the bed. Is this normal? LOL Sorry it's kinda TMI...

[Nina]

the older I get the more I realize there is less and less to be afraid about...
and, that the things to actually *be* afraid of are pretty fucking scary....

[asphaltcowboi]

that anger is only a feeling just like love is except anger passes much faster

[Gentle Tiger]

The older I get the more I realize how much today matters!

[Jesse]

The older I get the more I realize that red flags are not a thing to be treated lightly!

[Jet]

...I've got nothing to lose.

[RockOn]

... there are just not any more big deals.

In addition, I try my very best to stay out of others' big deals unless I can do something I know for a fact is helpful and not "stirring the stew" ... helps to keep me in the drama-free zone.

;)

[Soon]

...how I like getting up early to enjoy the peaceful stillness.

[Gentle Tiger]

...that some foods just don't like me.:seeingstars:

[Cowboi]

I wish I lived closer to my family.....

[Blaze]

That the simple sounds of Birds chirping in the morning makes me smile.
That the sound of Thunder and the flashes of lightning really does make the air feel so much cleaner.
That News channels really do over kill on things that are not really that important to me, and never give good news that same opportunity as the bad ones.
