I noticed so many times how badly the Obamas wanted to bust out dancing , when hearing the bands and performers. It was in them and a little slipped out.
Dance is the response of our entire being to happiness. What kind of people are we that bottle up this beautiful response to life?
Im so thankful to have people at the top that seem to love life and each other. Maybe this will quell the official response to kill and destroy others without provocation.
And may we all be dancing a lot more often.
Ain't it the truth?
I think Cary is is right - you can stay enthralled in your inner landscape or you can recognize that there are other places to visit , Its up to you to pull your eyes away.
Look, somebody who is diagnosed with anxiety and depression threw a necklace you bought her at Christmas. Considering the stress Christmas puts on the best of us I don't consider it a big deal- I mean that holdiay is capable of breaking a lot of people. What is she doing for depression and anxiety? if she's not seeing a theraapist perhas she should b.
If those kind of things are happening frequently tho', then I think you need to to face up to the fact that you all are not capable of nourishing each other at this time.Perhaps you should live apart till you graduate , then her shitty car and the shitty apartment won't be your fault in either of your minds.
Living alone or with roommates she can face up to some economic truths which may make her a little less judgemental of you. Plus she will free to do other things with her life instead of feeling like her life is on hold til you start the engine.
When you graduate you all can make some concrete plans, if the flame is still hot.
.Aren't we using the male sexual response as the "norm "here? We know their sexual interest is gargantuanly visual by the billion dollar porn industry. But women may be more truly turned on sexually by things like smell, touch and moving of their own bodies,
I would think seeing a visual may only indicate an interest response or a " strong like" response if you will. Did they also show chocolate cakes,a great sofa, cavorting goats and babies? I suspect these things might also show vaginal response but then what what conclusions would they come to? .
As far as narcissism goes what do you call men's obssession with size, best lover , and who's your daddy.?
I know why people wear them - but some women just throw them on all crooked and they're
not even near believable but it seems to be totally okay in the black community .
And of course Orthodox jewish women have to shave all their hair off once they get mrried and wear wigs FOREVER. Now thats weird.
My black cotton haired native American mom has worn marilyn Monroe wigs for like 40 years. You should see the guys honk til they pull up and see she's 8o years old!
They are hot as hell, how do people stand them in the summer? They must be hellish in Israel
aa well as Atlanta.
After all you may soon be playing the part of an unemployed totally broke and desperate man, without hope . That role is soon going to be sooo overdone.
I think the part of an up and coming actor with dreams , creative abilities and interesting stories is much more inspiring .We're going to need inspiring!
And your day job as a waiter will at least keep you eating.
And later the advanced acting classes may come in handy if you need to project yourself over others, in almost field you may decide to enter , should you change your mind if/when there are jobs again.
., after all religious hypocrites are a dime a dozen.
But how does she manage to convince herself and her children that their lives should continue to be in his hands after he's ruined their lives , not only financially but as they have become ostracized socially. I don't think Haggard deserves our compassion , considering that as a pastor his preaching secured Bush's "moral authority" for many people and allowed hundreds of thousand so of deaths to take place so they could keep the gay hate fires burning.
But his family, especially the kids , deserve compassion .
Ted Haggard spoke weekly with President Bush- he had a hotline to the WH. He was a staunch Repug and provided "moral authority" based on hating gays to a criminal administration. As head of hundreds of united evangelical groups he urged millions of people to support a new Crusade.. Obviously if you hate on gays your moral standing is assured.Well now its quite clear that Haggard was as depraved as Bush, using his position to mislead others.
Mr Haggard did what he could to assist Pres. Bush in obtaining votes thru lies and based on that alone he deserves absolutely no compassion.
He called gays dark and depraved yesterday on tv .
The only thing I saw dark and depraved was a man who continues to smear others , seek money and fame and runs from acquiring an honest profession.
now let go. Your spouse is rebuilding his life around spiritual principles, I suggest you look inside and find some of your own.Perhaps down the road you may run into each other and think "I wonder what that was all about?"'but as it is now - he is not who he was and neither are you - move on.
The liberal media needs to stop wallowing in manure and support our future , not flame old embers of division.
or maybe they really don't want change
and they're not reall progressive
just another National Enquirer .
Glad to hear Powers is on board , as is her husbamd- maybe experts in their field can come into their own in informing government policy.
About time.
