today, you know, just one of those days. so when I read the question, my first response was "apparently nothing" (sarcasm!)

but in truth, i keep learning every day WHO I AM. this turns out to be the main thing i needed to know all those years.

I have learned, just today, that I really don't want him gone for 5 days every week for at least a year. I have also learned, throughout life, that I don't always get what I *want*.


And here I thought I was all independent and stuff. Not so much I guess when it comes to him. That sucks. LOL!!!

I've learned a lot over the years, but one thing that surprised me is that I don't always respond to things the way I thought I would. So many times I've thought..if 'this' happens then 'that' is the way that I would react.

For instance, I thought if I ever got divorced or my husband were to leave me I'd end up in a corner crying my eyes out and being scared to death to face the world. Turns out that I'm doing just fine on my own and life is better than I ever thought it would be.

I've learned that sometimes it's best that the thing you really wanted to have happen, doesn't happen at all. But it usually takes a bit of time to figure that one out.

i have learned..

that friends don't always have your best intentions at heart, and that as i grow on this journey of mine, i learn lessons more and more each day.. Seeing things at face value as they happen and seeing the fierce girl in me, who now protects herself and takes care of herself & those she loves..

Part of me, is so proud of the changes within , but the other part of me feels sadness, for having to see it differently now..

But mostly, i am very grateful for true friends, the ones who have your back & love you for all you are.. and who are truly tickled for your happiness, the changes you make in life and celebrate your successes along with you.. i do have some very kickass friends...<3

As a wise woman stated, we are all interconnected. It is a small world. :tiredcomputer:

I have learned that no matter how much you think you know someone you really never did. Until you can be in their head you just don't see the clear picture.

I have learned..........
 
To appreciate our friends and family, and not wait to tell them how important they are in our lives. Also, and this is the biggest lesson for me, is to take care of our health before repairing damage is almost impossible.

I am grateful for every heartache and disappointment, because I now treasure every success and newfound joy.

JAGG 06-06-2012 05:45 PM

Just when you think you might know someone, they will prove you wrong.

girl_dee 06-06-2012 06:57 PM

That walking around this farm is like a slice of heaven and therapy all in one

That i thrive when i have lots to do

That Syr is the reason that my life is so good.

I have learned
 
... I do not think I have a knack for growing flowers.

Thought I would try to do something different. Decided I would grow calla lilies to give to friends when they grew to pretty. I was so excited.

All twenty-something came up and are lushy green. Kelly Bully dog dug up, chewed a few bulbs to pieces and something came in the night - ate a couple more but still had plenty.

I do not know why they will not make at least one flower.
It has been 6 or 8 weeks I think ... or maybe five.

I had envisioned making people happy when I distributed them.

I continue watering, fertilizing - taking care of them.

I think I am a butch with silly dreams. Oh well, not the end of the world by any means.

I have learned not to attempt to grow any more flowers.

JustJo 06-06-2012 08:09 PM

Don't give up yet....callas take 3 or 4 months to bloom. They'll get there! :)

what i have learned......
 
as soon as you say that you are going to be celibate, :rollcat: comes flying at you from every direction.............

if it quacks like a duck, walks like a duck, and looks like a duck... She's a whore

as soon as you say you want to diet, a new flavor of ben and jerry's comes out
:seeingstars:

just when you think you have all the bills paid, something comes up:readfineprint:

as soon as you swear off blonde blue-eyed scorpio yankee women, one steals your heart................:fallenangel:

There is a good reason why we don't begin life with the knowledge we gain along the way.

Breezy 06-06-2012 08:41 PM

Each day is special and best lived well rather than avoided.

I enjoy long hugs and lingering kisses.

Deep, intimate conversations are the best.

When I realized I had awakened spiritually I found I was avoiding conflict and negativity at all cost. I had to learn there is a big difference between those and the grief process and simply feeling. I thought I had to be above negative emotions. Who'dathunk it. lol. I am glad I figured it out.

I can feel my emotions and either let them over take me or I can process them and let it go.

"Good girls" DO get angry, they cry, they need, they deserve and they can desire. It was lie I was taught as a child that it was not okay.

I like who I am.

kittygrrl 06-06-2012 08:49 PM
