To be upset over what you don't have is to waste what you do have.

I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Sometimes you put walls up not to keep people out, but to see who cares enough to break them down.

Aye, that.  Wink

Aye, that.  Wink

The trick is to know if that is really the case or if the wall builder really doesn't want you close. When you don't know, all you can do is camp outside the wall and wait for a sign....

What, no pillaging the walls?  No rope ladders, flame arrows, or grappling hooks? Smiley

That would depend on who is on the other side and how they really feel about me. Sometimes, hard as it is, the person behind the wall has to let you know that you are welcome. Especially if they have gone to considerable lengths to convince you that you are not.
After all, stalking is against the law, you know...

That's right... it is.... if only I had proof!  (Oh, sorry.... little off to the side there)

Some people don't care if they're welcome or not.  They barge in anyways.  I have a tendency to do that without even realizing it sometimes... don't always know when I'm not wanted.  Sad

I have the opposite problem. I tend to want to avoid intruding where I am not wanted so people think I'm standoffish or a snob when all I am is shy. I'm kinda like a stray kitten that wants to be friends but the world has made her wary.

I hear that... I can be that way.  I tend to cover up my shyness with being overly loud and obnoxious though.  Grin

That was trained out of me early. Black Rose says that my upbringing was that of a traditional Southern woman. I am currently trying to working to discard the most  "unhandy" parts while keeping the good stuff.

Mark Twain:

    Love seems the swiftest, but it is the slowest of all growths. No man or woman really knows what perfect love is until they have been married a quarter of a century.


Yep.  Smiley

Captain Jean-Luc Picard

Time is a companion that goes with us on a journey. It reminds us to cherish each moment, because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we have lived.
