Perfectly me....

Living, Loving and Laughing...
I often get asked, why LIVE, LOVE, LAUGH, and why in  that order... then i SMILE and say, look at me, I have so much love to give, and before I can give love I have to live, and giving love makes me so happy so that the joy overflows... and it does so from every ounce of my body...
Sometimes I look at my life and wonder ho did i get to be so blessed and so lucky...
I have four amazing siblings...

Four Boyfriends

Once upon a time there was this girl who had four boyfriends.

She loved the 4th boyfriend the most and adorned him with rich robes and treated him to the finest of delicacies. She gave him nothing but the very best.

She also loved the 3rd boyfriend very much and was always showing him off to neighboring kingdoms. However, she feared that one day he would leave her for another.

She also loved her 2nd boyfriend. He was her confidant and was always kind, considerate and patient with her. Whenever this girl faced a problem, she could confide in him, and he would help her get through the difficult times.

The girls 1st boyfriend was a very loyal partner and had made great contributions in maintaining her wealth and kingdom. However, she did not love the first boyfriend. Although he loved her deeply, she hardly took notice of him!

One day, the girl fell ill and she knew her time was short. She thought of her luxurious life and wondered, I now have four boyfriends with me, but when I die, I'll be all alone."

Thus, she asked the 4th boyfriend, "I loved you the most, endowed you with the finest clothing and showered great care over you. Now that I'm dying, will you follow me and keep me company?"

"No way!", replied the 4th boyfriend, and he walked away without another word..

His answer cut like a sharp knife right into her heart..

The sad girl then asked the 3rd boyfriend, "I loved you all my life.. Now that I'm dying, will you follow me and keep me company?"

"No!", replied the 3rd boyfriend. "Life is too good! When you die, I'm going to marry someone else!"

Her heart sank and turned cold.

She then asked the 2nd boyfriend, "I have always turned to you for help and you've always been there for me. When I die, will you follow me and keep me company?"

"I'm sorry, I can't help you out this time!", replied the 2nd boyfriend. "At the very most, I can only walk with you to your grave."

His answer struck her like a bolt of lightning, and the girl was devastated.

Then a voice called out: "I'll go with you. I'll follow you no matter where you go."

The girl looked up, and there was her first boyfriend. He was very skinny as he suffered from malnutrition and neglect.

Greatly grieved, the girl said, "I should have taken much better care of you when I had the chance!"

In truth, you have 4 boyfriend's in your lives:
Your 4th boyfriend is your body. No matter how much time and effort you lavish in making it look good, it will leave you when you die.

Your 3rd boyfriend is your possessions, status and wealth. When you die, it will all go to others.

Your 2nd boyfriend is your family and friends. No matter how much they have been there for you, the furthest they can stay by you is up to the grave.

And your 1st boyfriend is your Soul. Often neglected in pursuit of wealth, power and pleasures of the world.

However, your Soul is the only thing that will follow you where ever you go. Cultivate, strengthen and cherish it now, for it is the only part of you that will follow you to the throne of God and continue with you throughout Eternity.

Thought for the day: Remember, when the world pushes you to your knees, you're in the perfect position to pray.

Pass this on to someone you care about - because I just did.

Being happy doesn't mean everything's perfect. It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfections and simply find contentment within yourself and your situations.

Zodiac World: Aries Man

Zodiac World: Aries Man
this is so spot on....
he is really like this...
He always let other people walk in front of him, but he will get there first. He is a very careful guy and small obstacles won't make him fall easily even he thinks life is a very serious matter. He is as romantic as any other Zodiac. He could look gentle, but inside he is as strong as steel. Once he determine to do something, he is serious about doing it well. He will keep any pressure or insult deep down inside without showing emotion. You will never see his emotion of burden or disappointment and always wonder what he thinks or feels. He will well kept his feeling.

You will never see a guy in this Zodiac involving in other people business. He always concern with his own business. Sometimes he can be talkative, but he will never give anyone advice if he has not been asked. If you ask for advice, he will certainly give you one. He respects elderly and senior, so you will see he is the type who visit his parents steadily or often.
He is a slightly shy but also a stubborn person. He will find many ways to make you happy when you are with him, till you realize he is the important person for you. Once he is in the "Power Position", he will use his power gently. He is a good leader and "Gentleness" is one of his effective method for exploiting his power. It is although he is borne to be a leader. He never hide his ambition, and he is a workaholic. he will not take any position that he has no control. He will work very hard to reach his goal and satisfaction.
this is so true... he is really like this...

Compliment from his boss or superior are never enough for him, he want his deserved reward. His deep insecurity make him reach and collecting valuable things, and this you may think he is stingy. Actually he could easily spending money to buy things, traveling or pay for things that makes him happy and he think necessary for his need. He care what other people think of him and want to get good comments or compliments.

Outside he looks like stone and steel, but inside he is a fragile person. He will hide and cover up weak emotion and his sadness in order to maintain and keep up his "Image". One method of cover up you could easily notice is suddenly if he is quiet, cold, or act very strong or very secure. Often, he feels insecure, even he is serious about his life and his own surrounding.

Cara i am never not believing you ever again when it comes to the zodiac, this is just too bloody accurate...


This is the man who never hurry to get marry, so hardly sit back and regret about his marriage later. If he gets marry, he need to be very certain and very sure. It will take a long time for such decision, so if you tell him that you are "breaking up" , you better forget him for good because he will never coming back.

He always keep his promise. If he said he will meet you in your place in 2 hours then he will be there, unless there is a serious accident or unavoidable things happen. He hate people who is late for date or any appointment.

omg... this is just scary....


He like to think woman should be a follower and take care of family and working is a man duty. He does not like to compete with his girl friend or his wife at work because competition already exist with himself and other people. He will be very proud if he can afford and care for his family. Do not try to over power him or insult him, he can not stand it. He likes to be in control of every things, every situations.

He like a "Classy Woman" ,if she also comes from a good family then it is a Plus. It will make him feel proud and very ego about her status. Flashy type of woman , forget it. He like a perfect or a nearly perfect housewife. He tend to be possessive. He will not tell you if he is mad at you, but will act very moody to show you instead.

He like to hear sweet word and compliment so you can get his interest that way. If he approaches you to ask you out, do not act too stubborn or fooling around too much. He will get tired and just disappear. He has to feel confident when he is around you, so knowing this fact you should know what to do, right!

If you want him, you have to make him feel like he is the most important person for you. He likes a kind hearted woman , polite and can get along with his family. When he feels sad, do not leave him alone, but be very supportive. Kind words and your smile will win him over, so this strong man will be like a chicken in your palm.

Today has been one of those days where I wish I was a little baby again, or not even small just one of those days where you feel like you wanna be all by yourself in a place where nobody knows you and know one cares what drama is going on in your life.
I was going through these pictures and just had that great sense of escaping...
maybe the pressures of growing up are getting to me...
Either way life is for the living and I'm still alive so I better just pull myself out of this depression and move on and build a bridge and get over it....

ARIES AND SAGITTARIUS COMPATIBILITY

http://www.ask-oracle.com/sign-compatibility/aries-sagittarius/
Aries and Sagittarius prove to be potential partners on all practical levels in all the relations. They both are intuitive and impulsive people and enjoy each other’s company. For the most part, they inspire each other, and mutual encouragement is more than likely.
Aries are very objective and direct with a touch of force. They engage in heated arguments to defend themselves or what is they think is right. They are champions of the brutal truth which can sting a bit, but do not hear the truth of themselves for it is irrelevant to them and they are above it. As for careers, these people do not like answering to anyone else so a boss might be a bit of a problem. They want to be their own boss no matter what the job is. An Aries is obsessed with winning and engages in controlling behavior to get what they want, because in the end they only know how to please themselves.
Sagittarius mimics the Aries in many ways of life with a few exceptions. They tend to have more personal confidence than Aries. They are blunt about making comments to others and themselves. Sagittarius amp their own ego through exaggerating personal experiences and feelings making people think of them as either very wise or extremely foolish. They are kind at heart and mean no harm with the painful truths they tell, for they feel honesty is very important and the truth must be upheld at all cost. They are individuals who can adapt well to virtually any situation. Sagittarius are always on the move looking for a new adventure around the corner and like Aries these people enjoy the risks, everything from extreme sports to gambling.
Both Aries and Sagittarius hit it off most of the time because of the common ground they walk on. They are both extroverted and put their mark on almost anything. They also typically engage in heated discussions and just cannot let a verbal challenge go. Both think they are always right and both argue for the truth "I KNOW THIS IS TRUE FOR MYSELF, I HAVE YET TO EXPERIENCE IT WITH HIM". And no one dare distort the truth or they have a hot Sagittarius on their hands. Both of these are always on the move in an attempt to not miss anything new, exciting or challenging. If searching for cause finds it to be a lost cause, they both exhaust all resources to help. The Aries needs their victory while Sagittarians fight for the truth in good. Also these two people basically, always know everything or at least claiming to know. With their curiosity level high it is no surprise that these two are very accident prone, the most on the zodiac.
In contrasting, of the two, Aries is more susceptible to being taken advantage of do to their wanting to help others and their inability to show caution. Aries may seem rude, their intentions are not malicious. By nature Aries sees and comprehends the good and positive in people, such as the child sees the love in his mother’s eyes. A natural and pure pursuit of the good found in people, Sagittarians fall a bit on the distrustful or cynical side of life. Their attitude of idealism and striving to succeed are present, but they are not innocent. Sagittarians have learned to be intellectual in the ways of the world, but they still uphold principles of truth. It just seems these two took different routes through development to end up so close in character.
When these two make some relations, they are always filled with joy, enthusiasm and lots of smooth and sometimes hot communication. As siblings, friends, colleagues and relatives they share a very exciting and over whelming relation with lots to share and discover together. They both are always ready for all new things and love to explore and argue with each other. Commercial bonds can be both successful as well as unsuccessful depending on their passion for it and their interest in it. Their romantic relationship is always passionate and exciting and they always have so much in common to enjoy that they never feel bored once they are together. Parenthood is a serious responsibility which they take up with caution and once they are there they prove to be their children’s best friend and careful guardians with lots of give them and make them learn.
There are a few clashes that take place between Aries and Sagittarians due to their spontaneous nature. They both react to the moment and are straight forward and thus tend to hurt each other. Even with the occasional squabbles and mild differences, Sagittarius always moves and inspires as well as draws Aries close. Neither of them is one to hold grudges and both of them is willing to move forward and forget about problems easily. There is always spontaneous affection and compassion between the two. More importantly a strong trust through truth and honesty makes this a strong association. When all is said and done and the dust clears, Sagittarius and Aries still remain, unchanged and in each other’s hearts.
