nice template!
I really like it!!
eu só sei que não era capaz de fazer Bungee JUMP! agora, cereais, só chocapic ou nestum... estrelitas vá lá... mas têm muito mel. a última coisa que comi foi mesmo bolachas de chocolate ensopadas em leite quente (o meu lanche predilecto para estes dias frios :o )trovoada é bacana... gostei das tuas respostas ;)
DO YOU STILL HAVE YOUR TONSILS?
Mas isso é alguma coisa que se pergunte?!
Estou a ver alguém, num bar de copo na mão, a chegar perto de um(a) desconhecido(a): Olá! Posso-te conhecer melhor? Tens amígdalas? É que se não, já não curto.
hehe
Ao menos nasceste na segunda melhor cidade de Portugal. Boa escolha (!)
Foi uma maneira muito gira de te conhecer melhor! :) Beijinhos!
Muito fixe...Bj
Está um prémio no meu blogue tb para ti.Bj
I'd rather say it in good ol' English... The dark little secrets are the ones we choose to frighten the ones (or the one) we love the most... after that, everything can be said, and shared... no apologies, no regrets... Nice to know about you... nice to know YOU... :)
Well so... Please, won't you go ahead?! ;)
Again... I have to say... you found the sequencial words of what I write down.
Although I'm actually going through a moment that shows me fear as something of paralising...
I'm glad we were able to find each other... it is always nice to know... you! =)
(But the first time I read this... I thought you were meancioning the post nest to this one... god! we "mingle" too much...)
There are phases on our lives on which we make contact with things that we never supposed to induce us in a state of fright, fear, panic or phobia... First, there's the reckoning - that one's always a shock; then, there's the brooding - that one's the worst of it because, inside our heads, we make the 'monster' and the future battle, a lot bigger than he actually is (it is also the phase when we think we are much less than we actually are); finally, the confrontation - one day we ALL have to face our fears (which, by now, are truly a nightmare from hell). And then, amidst the 'battle', the miracle: we find out that we are really really golden, really precious, really unique and really much much better than we thought. We discover that we are Humans and that is the greatest of all things. If you can't see it now, don't worry: the day will come that you WILL. :)
wow!
you really, really sound like a voice from the past... but grown (sorry for the comparisons).
And yet again you cought the heart of the battle I'm facing right now (don't we all go throught it someday?... I guess this was mine, then...)
You can't even begin to imagine what your words mean and accomplish deep in the deepest of me...
Words are not enough!
***
Words are never enough... never! :)
It is to me a real deep honor and joy that my words are finding some resonance inside you. You too cannot imagine how much I'm feeling it. I also hope that they can help you on the battle against all demons and fears... Remember, Truth, Love and Light are the things you are and the best weapons against them.
Honor! There's the word that was escaping... and resumes all of this... the inner joy and recognition I'm getting from you.
I'd take your offer if you take on mine of also doing the same anytime, anywhere if ever needed.
I'll try to remember all of it... but I count on not loosing your track so you can back me up. ;)
As the other says in the movie "This will be the beginnig of a beautiful friendship"...
And I believe him***
You know, Honour is one of the values that Man is loosing... fast! To my is a Cornerstone. Is present in everything I do or say and if I suspect that something I'm doing will be regarded as 'Honourless', I get really nervous and sad...
I accept your offer, deeply, and hereby, if the future won't betray us, that my hand will always be there with you, on rain, sun, snow or blazing heat... I accept your hand with Honour and Respect (which are synonyms for Love) and promise to keep it close to me...
You're watching too much Casablanca (or White cat, Black Cat)... ;) But that is one Truth that only Time will confirm :D
it really is... that's why I kinda "openned up my arms" to you as I felt it as one of your values which I praise but find in so few.
So now it is up to us... to honour each other and try to "cheat" the future if it ever tries to betray us. 'Cause I keep my promises.
you know what... the first I never did watch... the second I did not saw till the end of it... so.. no, I'm not lost in "movieland"... I just have a great memory ;)
And again... between us as in all new and good things in life... let's leave it to the Future... but keep an eye on it, ok? =)
Now you're getting it :) That's why I said "if the future doesn't betray us"... he has a way with those things... And, now that I found you, I don't want that to happen. Loosing a friend is so sad... so sad...
I'm a fast learner you may say! ;)
It sure has... we've all felt it before.
And personally I don't really feel like going through it again... at least soon.
So... let's just keep track of where we are =)
(Talk about a two way stree talk... that's us today... lol)
No, no one likes to go through it... but you know, it's not a matter of 'if'; it's a matter of 'when'. And, when it happens (because it WILL) we will see who'll be standing by... :)
Things have their own pace, their rhythm... no worries... I'm here now...
exactly... in my case it is more the when that ends up "killing me"... and it is like i say... life chages quicly... and I've been able to see who's around... at least I'll get something out of it... ;)
They do... and it's runnig smoothly... like all things should.
Isn't the "now"... that matters?
Always, darling, always... ;) You see what it happens when you call out loud for things (like friends, for instance)... nice things happen!
=D
yes my darling... this song really does it for me... it never failled me... and it is all in the good vibe I sent along with it... ;)
I guess I'll write the guys thanking all of this =)
I'm going home now...
See you tomorrow if not sooner... as you can always find other ways to track me... ;)
Have a nice way home!
... and yes, there are other really nice ways to track you... :)
