I've learned I can be too self critical
And not forgiving enough of others sometimes
and BD, I can't believe you've said that
Liking the life/lifestyle is one thing
But changing your Nationality to enjoy it
Nothing new really, just confirmation that my life really IS jinxed.
How many more knocks am I to endure?
There's not much joy to my life and, altho I didn't think it could, it's going to get worse.
Before anyone says 'count your blessings' etc I know there are folk worse off than myself, it doesn't stop me feeling sorry for myself and doesn't bar me from complaining about it.
Well, sometimes you just need to let off steam Sandi, have a good old moan and then get yourself dusted down and carry on.
Beautiful pictures are developed from negatives in the darkroom, so if you see darkness in your life be reassured that a beautiful picture is being prepared x
Not only today, but just lately... I have realised what is important in my life. As this year comes to an end, I know I have been through a steep learning curve. I have tackled difficult issues, some I have resolved, some I am still in the process of resolving and I have also learned a few tough lessons. One of the most important lesson is, knowing who I am and who my friends are. It's not the road you're walking upon, it's the people you meet on the way that make a difference. I have not been here that long yet, but already have got to know some amazing people, who have been there for me, even though some might not even realise. So thank you to the great BM family and I am proud to be a part of it now xxx
I have learnt that no matter how bad things are, there is always hope for the future and someone much worse off than yourself.
2012 has been a terrible year, starting off with the sad loss of my partner due to cancer, she was only diagnosed 8 weeks before.
My mum who i care for has been rushed into hospital and twice i have been told she wasnt going to make it through the night, luckily she is still here.
I joined BM on the advice from a friend and fellow member, and thank goodness i did as it got me out riding again met lots of new friends and attended some great events.
Then house got flooded twice and totally wrecked the place,even now with all this rain could happen again over X mas.
With all the support I have had off BMers has truly helped, some of you i havent even met yet. but hope to do so.
So what I have really learned that with help and support you can overcome all sorts of problems, you have to take the strength of others around you if you dont have enough of your own.
@ lisa I so cracked up at reading this as just you wait till ya see what pressie I got ya lass it will also make you laugh.........
@ BJ leave mista sambuca to me him and me on 1st name terms lets say it aint terrys it's sally's
@ sandi jinxed hun you may feel that but rest assure take it from a expert all the negatives can be turned into positives as they is always a friend or friends you can turn to and talk to
What ive learnt is ive got some amazing friends that have helped and still helping me through rough times and illness
BM is worth the money and effort as OMG.....(oh my god) for those that don't do text talk ive met some amazing friends and so bloody looking forward to 2013 to carry on rallying and partying with them all as I once felt too shy,nervous to just go up to folk and say Hello............and yes some times still am so here is to meeting new and old friends off here in 2013
Today I learned this about myself..... I can fall off a ladder whilst painting the ceiling and not actually break anything (won't make a habit of it though!).
A valuable lesson to learn IG
Sadly all too late in life for most
As a species we abhor and avoid change
We crave continuity
But it is change that brings choice
Society constantly offers both
Which leads to endless turmoil and mental anguish
