Suddenly I can see God where I just couldn't for a while there.<br /><br />It's lovely to sit in a space where we see the thoughts drummed up by our inner critic are just that - thoughts. Lies, even. Though they feel so real, they are just thoughts on the wind.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01122659239039900398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4879615387850345622.post-512161410206478952010-02-01T06:31:38.658+11:002010-02-01T06:31:38.658+11:00hanging in here with you, sue. i had one of thos...hanging in here with you, sue. i had one of those marriages that ended with the "flipside" of the paper. it's a crummy place to be!! i won't go on with the happily ever after thing now... :-) but things do change... so tell your inner critic, "thanks, but no thanks" for the unsolicited advice!Kayce aka lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01479940262271959482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4879615387850345622.post-81974428165278699172010-01-31T23:30:35.922+11:002010-01-31T23:30:35.922+11:00Perplexio - you're so right!

I guess it was a little too cheesy for my taste - think it was all those violins - but I *do* understand why it made you cry :)<br /><br />I'm sorry to hear about your boy. It must be heartbreaking as a parent to see your kids suffer in this way and to know that you have to let them learn to grow up on their own. Wow.<br /><br />Thank you for that, Jon. Very sweet :)Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01122659239039900398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4879615387850345622.post-82214376666473540932010-01-27T01:30:29.243+11:002010-01-27T01:30:29.243+11:00hey Sue,
Sorry to hear of your pain. The power of...hey Sue,<br /><br />Sorry to hear of your pain. The power of our thoughts is amazing. Have you been to Wayne's blog lately. He posted a link to a short movie, 'the butterfly circus'. It made me cry because it came at the end of a tough day for me, and the family. My goofy gentle kind hearted boy had been picked on and made fun of for the umpteempth (sp?) time, this time it came to blows. Good sign cause maybe he is learning how to stand up for himself against the @#$@# at his "christian school"(its a long story).<br /><br />As the show master would say Sue,...You are truly magnificent...But of course with a spanish sounding lilt... <br /><br />Cheers JonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4879615387850345622.post-84491417666973132462010-01-27T00:29:32.270+11:002010-01-27T00:29:32.270+11:00Dena - aww, thanks.

I prefer raisins and sultanas and prunes and wrinkly fruit ;) Harrr.<br /><br />MysticBrit - that sounds like an interesting story about the amazing Janis in Indiana and the wonderful Harry in Lincolnshire :) Thanks re the fella. You're very kind. And yeah, I think I will try the same time zone - maybe even the same state if I get lucky! :)Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01122659239039900398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4879615387850345622.post-19481801304394750182010-01-26T19:14:33.151+11:002010-01-26T19:14:33.151+11:00As a fella I feel uniquely unqualified to comment,...As a fella I feel uniquely unqualified to comment, Sue, but that's never stopped me;) I'll just say two things -<br /><br />1- We are never, EVER, what our thoughts tell us we are, and<br /><br />2 - Try to find someone in the same time zone. This is from my present highly intriguing experience with the amazing Janis in Indiana, who I've been engaged to since 2002 (a L-o-o-ong Story)!:D<br /><br />Oh, and...<br /><br />3 - There's a fella somewhere out there in Oz who'll appreciate your guts, big heart and emotional honesty, and return it.

I have faith in that.<br /><br />Keep loving you and letting others love you and it will happen.<br /><br />Or...you could have some ripe mango.
