interesting to me: July 2004 Archives

It's all about what you say now. You have the power to dwell on the most difficult aspects of a situation. You also have the power to live your life according to the integrity for which you strive for. This is a social time for you Scorpions, but you may be preoccupied with issues of having to express yourself. Don't worry too much about this feeling of disconnection. It won't last through the week. Hang tight and the connection with your own feelings will get strong.
ok, these are starting to hit a bit to close to home...

considering some of the things I've read today...I found this facinating...

Your romantic life needs to go on the back burner today. To have a friend is to be a friend, they say, and a really good friend needs you right now. The person you're crushed out on will be impressed by your loyalty.

Horoscope for 07-21-04
Your future has arrived at your doorstep and it feels much closer to the present moment than you thought it would. Your deepest values are undergoing profound changes and there is little you can do to stop the process that began a couple of months ago as Venus began her retrograde phase. Today, things are looking better as you see the opportunities spread out before your eyes. You don't need to make a decision today -- just let yourself dream about the possibilities.

and to those out there with the smart ass comments, I know what you're thinking...and no, that's not it.
but maybe I'm becoming more open to the possibility it could possibly happen
*now where did I put those running shoes*

now granted...I do have a vivid imagination...however, it rarely becomes reality...so :wtf

When you close your eyes, you can see fantastic images representing your passions and your desires. When you open your eyes, you see the same thing. No, you're not crazy. The planets have conspired to let your imagination run wild and then to take whatever you've dreamed and throw the illusion of it into your reality. Deal with it. After all, you did dream it.

I love this group, downloaded 2 of their albums last night...

doesn't do much for a bad mood if you're in one anyway...but what the hell...

*edited to add: anyone else think it's odd this is my 4th post today?*

I believe there is a reason and purpose to most things that happen to us in life...whether it be the people we meet, things we do, or the way we act...believing this I've always tried to treat others the way i would want them to treat me, and do what i believe is right...
when i see a friend going through something, i try to help, whether it be a shoulder to lean on, an ear to listen, or whatever i am able to give, i try...peoples patience at times...but still...

I don't understand people who use others, lie to people they say they care about, or do things they know will hurt others...

what i understand even less is people who do things like this, then turn around and say they've changed...when they've done the same things over and over...i'm sorry, maybe you have, but don't expect me to believe it or forget...i will forgive a lot, but i don't forget much, nor will i put myself out there to be hurt once again by someone like that...and i can forgive you from afar, you will not be a part of my life again, just in case the leopards spots decide to return...

and in closing, i want to say this...once you've asked for forgiveness, whether it is given or not, your reason is done, you don't have to keep going over and over it again, and trying to change the heart and mind of the one you hurt...that is nothing more than the same game you were playing before...
the only problem is, no one wins...

In the midst of change, your feelings stabilize enough for you to realize how far you've come, but your words tend to show more emotion than stability. You may not reach the goals that you originally set for yourself, but knowing the reality of what you cannot achieve still can give you peace of mind. You can fall back on your own creative ability to survive, even if current circumstances are giving you a run for your money.

I read this and was reminded of a conversation I had yesterday with my girl Ran...we were talking about the ability to survive and stand on your own two feet regardless of circumstances...
I guess sometimes, it's written in the stars...

I just have to plug my best friend here.
due to much begging and pleading on my part, she came out of MIA to post this post about our weekend...afterwards...I don't know the entire story, but she posted this one (with photo's :lol)
you may now all stop wondering why I love this straight chick so much :wink :rofl :kisses
