So yesterday my fiancee and me got into an argument over cleaning. He basically said i'm not wife material because I don't clean and I procrastinate and I complain way too much. I do all the cleaning and he doesn't help at all. He thinks because he works more hours than I do that he doesn't have to pick up after himself and he doesn't do any cleaning around the house. Meanwhile I do the best I can with the cleaning but I am also looking for another job and he is acting like I don't do a damn thing just watch tv all damn day. I am seriously thinking about calling off this engagement and giving him back the engagement ring since I am not wife material and then go from there. Either way this plays out I am going to get hurt. I'm hurting right now with what he said. I've been crying for two days straight and I just don't know what to do.

sorry...this will be hard to follow...i think...

Maybe im being stupid...maybe im not... but i cant get over him. i love him with all that i am. it kills me that he is giving his love to someone else, and he acts like hes not. he continues to call me "baby" and "sweetie" and tell me that im beautiful. i was stupid to think that an angle like him could love ME. im not good enough for him... not now nor will i ever be. i cry every day. all i want is to come home and find him there, arms open wide, ready to have me back. the things i would do for him...the things ive already done for him...even after we broke up...
He got alcohol poisoning one day and i paid out of pocket for his stomach pumping. i had one of his friends take him to the hospital and everything. i bought him a plane ticket home when he was home sick, just so he could see his family and maybe have time to come say hey to me. but he didnt. i doesnt even have to want me back. love is supposed to be unconditional, and mine for him is.

A Time In Life

There comes a time in life when you have to let go of all the pointless drama and all the people who create it. Surround yourself with people who make you laugh so hard that you forget the bad and focus on the good. After all, life is too short to be anything but HAPPY..... :-D

THE OLD TESTAMENT and ME

Note: I have tired to edit-out all the capitalization, but could not figure-out how to do it.-Ron
----------------------------------------------

The Hebrew Bible, called The Old Testament by Christians, is an extraordinarily difficult sequence of books.1 This difficulty, too easily underestimated, is greater now than it ever was, partly because no contemporary reader, however specialized, shares in the psychology of the original readers and writers of The Bible. The first millennium in which anyone read any of the words in any of the books from 1000 B.C. to the time of Christ or, perhaps more accurately, 600 B.C. to 400 A.D.2

My first memories of The Old Testament come from Bible readings in grade six when I was 11 and my mother reading passages from little booklets from the Unity School of Christianity as early as the mid-1950s. �Although some of the quotations had a broad ethical appeal to me even as a boy in my late childhood and early teens, I found the stories abstruse and distant: goats, sheep, tribes, and curious names like Balthazar and Nebuchadnezzar. They all occupied another universe far removed from my little town of 5000 in Ontario in that post-WW2 world of the 1950s. This distance existed then, as it does now, nearly 60 years later.

My individual understanding of The Bible, my biblical interpretations, rely primarily at the age of nearly 70 on my experience of nearly 60 years of intimate association with the Baha’i Faith. My interpretations and those of the Baha’i teachings are provocative, if nothing else.� But I have always found there to be a vast distance from the psychic universe of the biblical writers beginning as early as, say, 900 B.C.2 and the contemporary society that is my world. I know I have lots of company; indeed I rarely meet anyone who actually reads The Old Testament any more.


However abstruse the language of biblical prophecy and eschatology, the prophets of The Old Testament, I believe, were given a foreknowledge of the events of our times in their visions, visions which I’m sure they hardly understood themselves.� �Still, there lies a sure presentation of the times we are living-through, as long as one does not take those prophecies literally.

Yahweh's choice of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and their descendants as part of the Chosen People story was a permanent decision, intended to prevail into a time without boundaries, into our time.-Ron Price with thanks to 1Harold Bloom, “Prose and Poetry,” in The New York Times, 17 October, 1982: a review of Dan Jacobson’s THE STORY OF THE STORIES: The Chosen People and Its God, and 2the final editor, or redactor, after the return from the Babylonian Exile in the 6th century BC, put all the books of The Old Testament into something like their present form.3


When this review appeared in1

The New York TimesI had just

arrived in Australia’s Northern

Territory & the heat of summer

was just beginning to make me

run for cover to air-conditioning �

in my office, my home & the cool

air of the car....The Old Testament �

was on my universe’s far-periphery.

There it had always been in heat and

cold since those first stories when I

was in grade six in that little town in

Ontario’s Golden Horseshoe where

everyone I knew was Catholic or Jew

or Protestant, or nothing; yes, mostly

nothing and there they have remained

with that Old Testament far removed

from everyone’s everyday life. Still…

I have time now to try to get into it in

this the evening of my life; �however

complex and abstruse it may be, I want

to make-up for the decades when it had

to remain far out on my life’s periphery.

Goebbels New How to have Blinders on other Folks!

Henry Wilder Foote IV 11:54 AM - +1'd on www.nydailynews.com - Public

YES, the Nazi propaganda leader, Joseph Goebbels, did show the World how to PROPAGANDA, to a high level in order to keep the "blinders" on for many folks, in many countries! One of his thoughts was to say it loudly, and enough, that it makes it a "true" thing for many "folks"!

We have that "problem" everywhere in our Earth Planet, and certainly in our USA! It's interesting to me that "we" use "liar" in our "propaganda" as if it was OK - when "WE" really want the "truth", but do not "THOUGHTFULLY THINK IT THROUGH!

Perhaps, it is simply a "short-cut" to deny the "truth", that needs some more work with their "own minds", in order to go to the "best goal" for everyone!

The Old Goat

California Democrat John Burton calls Paul Ryan a liar, comparing his tactics to those of Nazi propaganda director Joseph Goebbels � GOP vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan has been called a liar, but that pales in comparison to what a top California Democrat said about him on Monday.

Stress

Journal
The stress is getting really thick around here not sure if we all will be able to stand it before May 3rd comes around.� Kind of sick of it all.� I am also thinking about someone which I shouldnt just because of all the stuff he did to try and hurt me.� I try and stay strong but sometimes tears just want to pour out from my eyes once again.� I am not sure what or how to deal with it all.� Sometimes I want to stop being so tough and stop putting up a front just so I dont have to have the eyes constantly at my back or the "It will be ok" speech.� Today is just a really emotional day for me and sometimes I wish it would just stop so I dont have to feel so emotional.� I guess sometimes you have to stop and let a few tears fall down and face the stares and the questions but I am not ready for that one bit.� I know the kids feel it too and it makes me even more emotional.� Some days are so much harder to let go of it all than others and lately those bad days are continuing.�

All to comfortable

Okay, I understand that you can't really get to know someone based on a profile, text messages or even a phone call, but damn! I may have met the person of my dreams just by chance, literally. Although we met through the dating site, we didn't hit on each others profile as an interested party, in fact I just made a comment on a drawing that he did, nothing more. He responded with a Thank You and that was it, about a week went by and he kept popping up in my recommendations, so I made mention of it and we have been talking since. I actually spoke with him for over an hour on the phone today, it was really nice. The comfort in which I feel with him is awesome, hell, I have never been so open to anyone, not even my ex-husband about half of the stuff that we discussed both via text messages and on the phone just in the last few days. It's a great feeling, nothing compares at this time.

Unauthorized Expectation

On Friday, Valentine's Day, a very dear friend of mine made me face the truth, something that I have been denying or flat out ignoring for over a year now.� First off, this friend and I are not intimate.� We have known each other for quite a few months, but only recently started hanging out.� The truth that he made me face was an arrangement that I currently have with another friend, a room-mate.� Our arrangement has been going on for well over a year and it is something that my new friend wants very much to take the room-mate's place in the intimate department.

The arrangement that we have really does not exist.� Occasionally we have sex and may end up at a club together, but that's all it is.� When we are at a club, he will acknowledge me to a point, and yet do his best to maintain the distance, our secret, I am his dirty little secret.� When his family or friends are around, I am pretty much ignored, in fact there could be someone sitting on the couch that I do not know and he won't even introduce me to them.... that is how much of a dirty little secret I am.� Not worth mentioning.

The new friend said in no uncertain terms that he, the roomie, does not see me as a person, a woman or someone who has feelings.� I am merely seen as an opportunity to have sex when it is needed.

The part that hurts in all this is that I put my desired expectations on the roomie without his knowledge.� I wasn't looking for a relationship, and yet, I wanted to feel acknowledged for something more than just sex.� I didn't think it was that big of an issue if he would personally invite me out somewhere on occasion, sit next to me on the couch to watch a movie without it having a condition of sex, to have sex and wake up next to each other in the same bed, not for him to get up and leave the moment we were done.� In all honesty, it makes me feel somewhat like a slut or prostitute, the only thing missing is money left on a dresser or nightstand.

And yet, knowing that I don't really matter to him, knowing that I am not worth his time and effort, wanting so much to be seen for me, I have allowed him to take a piece of my heart, I am in love with this man and I don't know how to just end it, put a stop to this arrangement.

Love is undefinable. Trying to define it is the same as one who tries to grasp the air. But despite not being possible to grasp the air, we can feel it. The same applies to love...

Memories

Well, I�ll try to remember how was the day that I was born. I hope it had been a happy day for everybody!
I think I never had the curiosity to ask my mother how was this day. I know I was born at night and It was a �caesarean child-birth.
At this period of time there was a famous hit, it was Guns N�Roses - Sweet Child O�Mine.

I think all I remember is that and the date was June 10th, 1988.

Thanks for reading!
See you!

I spent my childhood at the hospital because I was born handicaped. I have never met my father. He died when my mother was pregnant of me. I have suffered thirty-one surgeries on my mouth and face� .... Today, thirty five years later, I consider myself a successful person, because God has given me me my mother who has been taking care of me and people who have been helping me and are very special to me in this journey ... I remember some doctors, like Dr. Nassif and Dr. Luci, ....today I will make some dreams� come true as get to know my father's mother land: he was born in the interior of Ceara, Fortaleza, have finished my Languages course and managed to build my house ... But I still long for some dreams like having a car, be promoted at work , have more time to take care of my dogs and finish my graduate course.

A Mid-Life Crisis

"The first and greatest victory is to conquer yourself; to be conquered by yourself is of all things most shameful and vile." – Plato

I suppose one of the reasons why so many people take a year abroad is to “find themselves”. We like to pretend that it is for academic reasons, but we’re not fooling anyone. Whether that be exposing your inner party Erasmus self, or finding an enlightened traveller of the world within you, there’s a lot to be accounted for in what, in proportion to our entire life, is such a small period of time.

One of the hardest things I had to accept when changing countries was that I would lose friends, and make new ones. That’s not to say that I didn’t want to make new friends; I just didn’t want to leave the old ones behind. Part of my Year Abroad will soon be a distant memory, yet I would have to revisit many of the hardships I faced at the beginning of the entire journey.

This feeling may well be recognisable for many people staying in one country, or even those at home. People come; people go. Those friends that can only stay for a term must take their next step, and so we all find ourselves in a position of isolation and friendlessness. So here we go again: getting to know a new city, understanding the language, making friends, finding a routine in life. I did it before, and I can do it again. Yet this time, I don’t want to.

It is my inner self who is telling me that “I don’t want to do this again”. That’s probably because it really is “effort”. But I cannot let my instinctive emotions control my thoughts. I may not want to make friends now, or study, but I cannot and will not be conquered by myself. My thoughts and being are separate: my thoughts can change, but I can never change who I am. It takes discipline and understanding of yourself to know that you will enjoy your new life and that you are capable of changing your own thoughts. After all, life is what you make it.

During my first two weeks in Zaragoza, I did not stay in the house. I did not go onto Skype every minute of the day, nor did I reject the thought of making new friends. I did not stay awake at night, wrestling with thoughts that I could not control. I accepted that my life has changed and I have moved on. Those moments of weakness, where I missed home and friends, I accepted that. It’s normal to feel alone. There have been times where I have wanted to go out and buy new clothing, eat a mountain of chocolate and feel sick and sad inside. I will not give into these insecurities.

In those moments when I feel capable of controlling my emotions, I feel very proud of myself. It takes a lot of discipline, but it builds character. One thing my Dad said to me was that good and bad things come in threes. But then, when you think about it, all good and bad is subjected to your own thoughts. The more we can control our thoughts, the more we can conquer ourselves.

Sick stuff, Plato.

I know. I’m way too cheesy to be writing a blog.�

Here.

So much has changed, everything. In only 6 months. I lost everything i had. EVERYTHING. Oh, the things i would do to just simply go back to it. Just to relive it one day so i can feel loved, wanted and useful. If i could go back maybe my parents would be proud of me, maybe i wouldn't be such a stress to them, maybe i would actually talk to my dad. If i could back, i would be still be doing everything with my best friends. Even though we all said this move wouldn't ruin our friendship. It sure as hell seems like it effected it tremendously. It summer!! I should be out having the time of my life but instead i sit in my house wondering whats wrong with my life, why did i have to want to move, why did i let someone so stupid get to me, why would let anything effect me this way. The dumb question just remains as WHY???
