Bullying

Being a bully is not a nice position to be in. Making a point of hurting others, and seeming to really enjoy doing that,is a sad conception within itself. These 'Bully Types' are insecure and more likely than not, suffer
from low self-esteem issues. They are hurting on the inside, so they must
make someone else pay for their misery. How Pitiful is that?

It's really a vicious cycle. The Bullies would never admit it to anyone,but
they need lots of love and affection. They prey on others whom they think are weaker than they are. Bullies, let go of 'the hate zone' and look for
love and acceptance. Open up to it. Love and peace are waiting for you!

Dogs and Toys

It is so strange to me how my dogs relate to their toys. They never want to play with anything unless the other one has it. For awhile, the toy starts a tug-o-war. Choca thinks everything in the yard is his, and if he's in a pleasant mood, he'll share with Slick. Then, Choca seems to time Slick's interaction with the toy. He watches and waits for his chance to grab it from Slick.

The dogs remind me so much of young children. They are so adorable, just like the children. The dogs are so much fun to watch and try to figure out the next move. I must act as a referee when I bring toys outside. Otherwise, a fight is in the cards.

My ultimate goal is to teach the dogs to play with their toys without a fight, and also, to respect each other's property. I have a ways to go yet, but with preserverance, we're going to make it.

Collectibles

There are so many things worth collecting. Fun things, like mugs, spoons,
clowns, ashtrays, candleholders, etc. I am a hopeless 'starter of collections', but I never finish any one collection. I am never focused on just one thing for too long.

Some years ago, I started a clown collection. Can about ten ceramic clowns be called a serious collection? I think not! I still haven't given up, though. Even writing this little tidbit hopefully will give me some inspiration to start anew. I'll get a nice gathering of clowns to show yet.

I also like small glass or ceramic items in lime green, cobalt blue, and cherry red. Now, I really have my work cut out for myself.

My Perfect Soulmate

Throughout my life, whenever I'm sad, or a bit out of sorts, I fall asleep and suddenly I'm with the most amazing companion! I'm always being loved, held closely, and being softly caressed. In these times, I am always fulfilled. There are no empty places in my being.

Every need or want is instantly satisfied to capacity. Heaven must be like that. With this soulmate by my side, I am romping on the beach, being led up a gorgeous hiking trail, in the company of my most extraordinary companion.

Whenever I feel the need for physical and/or emotional attention, I go to sleep and instantly reconnect with my perfect soulmate. I personally think this is God's lovely way of letting me know He is always with me. He never leaves or forsakes me. He is my all and all, throughout Eternity!
