It is not selfish it helps the greater good. That is why on aeroplanes they say make sure you put on your oxygen mask before your childs - your needs have to be met in order to meet anyone elses.Sharnaniganshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11276480245747743458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626707250861460083.post-51037919983476451702010-06-19T21:08:28.254-07:002010-06-19T21:08:28.254-07:00Andrew, I like you just the way you are and althou...Andrew, I like you just the way you are and although it may be hard to see it in yourself, I think you are great! Letting everything out is good sometimes. It clears a path and opens the air for whatever you want to do. The world is your oyster. The past is gone. Do what you want to do RIGHT NOW and know that people do care. All the best to you, Katherine.Katherine Jenkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16732133918969183030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626707250861460083.post-51790474807447337162010-06-13T09:53:58.641-07:002010-06-13T09:53:58.641-07:00Hey Andrew, sorry about your job.

When we let go of that and follow a path close to our heart, it not only works for us, but for the people in our lives. Good luck with your game!Wanderlusthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12099758957492165428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626707250861460083.post-76541480305704613952010-06-12T21:57:48.788-07:002010-06-12T21:57:48.788-07:00LOL ~~ Yes I did feel better after getting all of ...LOL ~~ Yes I did feel better after getting all of that out !<br /><br />Headed off to the Tweed for the Wintersun Festival today with Grub and two of his mates, enjoyed the sun, the music and the classic cars.<br /><br />Switched off too, plenty of time for reality after the long weekend.<br /><br />Thank you both for your supportive words and encouragment.<br /><br />DohiAndrew Swanssonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14892152969564585782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626707250861460083.post-61763721512554316472010-06-12T19:41:20.742-07:002010-06-12T19:41:20.742-07:00Oh...love this quote too..."Be the change you...Oh...love this quote too..."Be the change you wish to see in the world." - Gandhi.

What's stopping you (apart from you)?<br /><br />Time to look forward and renew...it's not too late to begin again.<br /><br />Don't be anything but who you are...you have everything you need inside of you! Hell...shit happens to us all - you are not alone. Be grateful for the gentle, caring and wonderful person you are. Don't take that for granted.<br /><br />And as Ralph Waldo Emerson says...<br />"Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it within us or we find it not."<br /><br />Love, your friend...Kerry :)Kerry Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07910046199300423007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626707250861460083.post-70544081562568188082010-06-12T17:45:50.896-07:002010-06-12T17:45:50.896-07:00Hey Andrew....

(heh-heh) Sometimes, in order to keep our sanity, it is NECESSARY to yell, and scream, and shout, and just ask WHY. You wouldn't be human if you didn't.<br /><br />I feel your pain on a good many of your sentiments here... it's very hard to keep a positive outlook at times when faced with some of life hardest moments, I know.<br /><br />Keep writing - not only is it a great way to "vent," sometimes great discoveries are made in the process!<br />Peace,<br />PamPamela Bousquethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10933486351538669537noreply@blogger.com
