Life is so hard at times, your teen years of adolecense, your years of first loves, then off to college, leaving your Mom and Dad and other members of your family. Out into the world at such a young age. Then there you are parents yourself eventually, and loveing and raising your kids and realizing “Mom actually knew what she was talking about”.
Then there are the empty nesters, whose kids have moved on with their lives you see them when you can, you have an empty feeling, the house feels really strange without all the kids and their friends. You get used to it and get a routine, then the kids come back home for some reason, maybe stay a few months. Yet I am glad they can always come home, that is how I want it to be.
Many people say “Life begins after 40″. I don’t know what the heck they are talking about. Life is the hardest after 40 to me, reading glasses, kids leave home, trying to figure out what to do with your time that you never had before, then there are the aging parents.
I worry about my kids making the right decisions and going down the right path in life, and in the next thought I worry about the health of my parents, whether they will get senile, and I will have to deal with that in a gentle way. Whether one passes away before the other and how the one left will deal with the loss. I worry about them falling, or forgetting things that are important like something cooking on the stove and they catch something on fire. I am the one left to care for them, as my sister and brother don’t live in the same town. Yet I know I am glad I am here for them. My Mother tells me every day that she doesn’t know what she would do without me. I love her so very much, she is an angel on earth.
I worry, I worry, I worry, I guess that is what I do because I love so deeply. I worry about my kids happiness and my parents aging.
I have made many contacts through my journey of affiliate marketing. I have met people from all over the World, from different backgrounds, and different cultures. Each person has their own voice, their own opinion, and their own lifestyle. I have made contact with a very nice young man whom I will meet in Boston next month. He has a lot to say about his opinions and his lifestyle on his website.
I feel lucky to get to meet people from all over the world from every walk of life, we are all different, we all have our opinions, our lifestyles, etc. but we all have one thing in common, “We are all people”.
Tell Someone ! Please ! It is so important not to let the bully control you. You take control, tell a parent, a sibling, a friend. You have the right to be safe from this abuse.
I am MAD. I can’t put into words the feeling I get to hear of bullies and abuse. It has happened to too many people in my world, and it is ruining the lives of the people I love. I won’t allow this to happen anymore, I am taking a stand against this. Two of the most important women in my life are victims of relationship abuse, and it has affected everyone in their families.
I will be going to the Affiliate Summit, in Las Vegas in February. One reason I mention this, last July I went to the Affiliate Summit in Miami.
My Sister went with me, and when we got off the airplane and started to get a taxi, I heard the man behind me tell his cab driver he was going to the same hotel we were. I don’t usually do this but I guess I wasn’t being myself…(sometimes, I am over cautious), I asked the man if he wanted to share a cab. “My thinking was I need to save as much money as I can, since I am not working at a regular job at the moment.” We could split the cab fare.
This was one of the nicest men I had ever met. Turns out he was going to the Affiliate Summit, and was working with www.match.com. He was so helpful. When we saw him at one of the social events, he introduced us to some of his clients. It was good to see a familar face at the event, being I am new at this business, and know no one.
All I can say is match.com is lucky to have such a nice man representing them. Hope I get to see you in Las Vegas.
In your adolescents I believe you are in love with the idea of “Love”
You are feeling very strong sexually feelings and you can be in and out of love many times in a week.
When you are in High School, sometimes people find the “Love” of their lives.My parents have been married 55 years, they got married at 18 yrs, and 16 yrs. after a 2 yr courtship.
I do believe that times have changed since my parents were young.The age that people Fall in love and possibly marry is later in life than it used to be.
I believe “Love” is different for each individual.Sometimes you just love someone For what they have done for you.You “Love” your parents and your siblings different than you love your friends.
Love can grow from a friendship.
Love can be passion and that is all.
Love can be trust.Love can be trust lost and regained.
