How to Make Friends

There's a certain beauty in being a lone wolf (people with no friends). You have more time to do things you want to do, like talk to yourself, play solitaire, write poetry, or try to carry that couch into your new apartment all by yourself. If that's not your bag, though, there are literally billions of potential friends in the world. What's more, many of these people want to make friends just as much as you do. So just follow these steps to meet new people and form strong, lasting friendships.

1. Get out and meet people! If you want to make friends, you first need to meet people. No matter where you live, this should be fairly easy. Just in case you're stumped, here are just a few suggestions.

* If you're in school or work and have a lot of co-workers and peers, you're surrounded by potential friends for a large portion of your day. A way to make a friend is to not be shy; go up to that person ask questions, like "what is your name?" "Are you on a team?" Act friendly and be honest and trustworthy.

* Join a club with people of common interests. You don't necessarily have to have a lot of common interests with people in order to make friends with them--in fact, some of the most rewarding friendships are between two people who don't have much in common at all--but if you have something in common with people, it can make it a lot easier to talk to them and plan activities initially. Whatever your age and whatever your interests, there is a club or organization for you.

* Join a team. Especially if you're in school, joining a sports team can be great way to make friends. A common misconception about this is that you have to be really good at playing a particular sport in order to make friends with others on the team, but this isn't true. As long as you enjoy the sport, try your best, and acknowledge that you're not a pro, your teammates will usually be more than happy to accept you for who you are.

* Volunteer. Volunteering is a great way for people of all ages to meet others. By working together you build bonds with people, and the fact that you're devoting your time to something free of charge shows that you're compassionate and unselfish, two traits of good friends.

* Get online. In general, the internet isn't a great place to make real friends, the kind who will be there for you when you really need them. Never use the internet to meet some one you now will consider your "best friend". You don't know this person and making them your best friend will not do anything good in your life. If you live in a really isolated place, the internet can also help you find other people around the world that share your interests.

2. Talk to people. You can join a club, go to school, or go to church, and you still won't make friends if you don't actually talk to people. By the same token, you don't have to be involved with an organization to talk to people, and any time you talk to someone, you have a chance at making a lasting friend. You can talk to anybody: the clerk at the video store, the person sitting next to you on the bus, or the person in front of you on the lunch line. Don't be picky. Most conversations will be a dead-end of sorts, in that you may never talk to that person again or you'll just remain acquaintances, but once in a while you'll actually make a friend.

* Introduce yourself early in the conversation. Your name doesn't necessarily need to be the first thing out of your mouth, but if you're looking to make friends, knowing each other's names is a good start. Once you introduce yourself, the other person will typically do the same. Remember his or her name, and use it later in the conversation.

* Make small talk. Friends can talk about just about anything, but you don't want to get too personal when you first meet someone. Just make good, inoffensive small talk at first.

* Open up the opportunity for another meeting. When you meet someone whom you think might make a good friend, try to exchange contact information. This is especially important if you meet someone who you aren't otherwise likely to meet again. Seize the day!

* If you've discovered that the person you're talking to has a common interest, ask him or her more about it and, if appropriate, whether they get together with others, in a club, for example, to pursue this interest. If so, this is a perfect opportunity to ask about joining them. If you have a club, band, church, etc. that you think they might enjoy take the opportunity to give them your number or email address and invite them to join you.

* If you're new in town or at school and are just looking to meet people, don't be afraid to mention this. People are often excited about meeting new people, showing them around, and introducing them to their friends.

3. Be fun to be around. You don't have to be a superstar to be fun. You don't even have to do cartwheels. You do need to be positive and friendly, however, so that people feel good when they're around you. From the very first conversation you have with someone, you should use body language to convey that you are affable, non-threatening, and approachable. Smile frequently, laugh often, and make eye contact. In your words, be confident, but don't be cocky, condescending, or mean-spirited.

4. Be a good listener. Many people think that in order to be seen as "friend material" they have to appear very interesting. Far more important than this, however, is the ability to show that you're interested in others. Listen carefully to what people say, remember important details about them (their names, their likes and dislikes), ask questions about their interests, and just take the time to learn more about them. People love to talk about themselves, and the easiest way to be likable is to listen. You don't want to be the guy or girl that always has a better story than anyone else or that changes the subject abruptly instead of continuing the flow of conversation. These people appear too wrapped up in themselves to be good friends.

5. Be reliable. The steps above are great for making acquaintances, but how do acquaintances become lifelong friends? One important trait of a good friend is reliability. When you say you'll do something, do it. Be someone that people know that they can count on.

6. Be trustworthy. One of the best things about having a friend is that you have someone to whom you can talk about anything, even secrets that you hide from the rest of the world. The key to being a good confidante is the ability to keep secrets, so it's no secret that you shouldn't tell other people things that were told to you in confidence. Before people even feel comfortable opening up to you, however, you need to build trust. Be honest about yourself and your beliefs, and don't gossip about others or spread rumors.

7. Be there. You've probably heard of fair-weather friends. They're the ones who are happy to be around you when things are going well, but are nowhere to be found when you really need them. Part of being a friend is being prepared to make sacrifices of your time and energy in order to help out your friends. If a friend needs help with an unpleasant chore, or if he or she just needs a shoulder to cry on, be there.

8. Be true to yourself. A good friend sometimes does things he or she doesn't want to do, such as helping a friend move or going to see a band that you don't really like, but you should never feel pressured to do something you think is wrong. Stay true to your convictions and beliefs, and if this causes you to lose some friends, you're better off without them. You'll also find that your integrity may help you win a lot of other friends, and if you just be yourself you'll make friends who like you for who you are.

• Accept everyone for who they are and never bring anyone down or try to change someone (especially if they've done nothing to hurt or offend you). This communicates insecurity. If you don't get along with someone, try avoidance instead of creating a rivalry.
• Always trust your gut feelings about people. If you feel someone (as nice as they may seem) is not the right person to make friends with, then move along.

• Don't be clingy or annoying. Over-obsessing over someone makes you seem weird and strange, not friendly.

• You never want to seem desperate. Don't chide acquaintances for failing to invite you to a party, for example; don't call someone over and over or stop by uninvited; and never overstay your welcome anywhere. In general, take friendship slowly, and don't try to become close to somebody right away. The move from acquaintance to friend can take a long time, and if you appear too clingy, potential friends may think you're too much work.

• Keep the lines of communication open. Lasting friendships don't just happen. They require work, especially if one friend moves away for an extended period or for good. Even if you don't get to see a friend, you should try to call or email him or her regularly just to check in and say "hi." With any luck, they'll do the same. It's easy to lose friends to distance, but it isn't necessary.

People Like to Put Us Down

And I’m not just talkin’ about my generation. Every generation that reads romances gets the same put down from someone: “When are you going to read a real book?” “Why do you read those sex stories?” “You should read something important.” “Why don’t you read about real life?”

Uh, excuse me? Real life? What could be more real than feelings that develop between two people that are so overwhelming they are willing to forsake their families and even lose their lives for love?

It’s worth bringing up Romeo and Juliet, because they were famous lovers whose desperate feelings we find it easy to dismiss today merely because they were young teenagers. Yet in their time, they were of marriageable age. Throughout history, families have married off their children as it suited the family, not the individual, no matter how much personal misery ensued. Romeo and Juliet epitomize personal rebellion against centuries of social tradition. No wonder they ended up dead.

It has only been in the last century or so in the western world that both men and women have had the luxury of arranging their own lives and choosing their own mates. The difficulty of choice in an open field should not be underestimated, since we do not have thousands of years of social history to guide our freedom. Maybe divorce holds out hope that mistakes can be left behind. But most of us don’t want to make mistakes in the first place.

Given this situation, you could say that romances are a tool to help people figure out how to recognize the right mate. Even though romances are about an area of human feeling that has always existed, that has frequently been sung about, and that has inspired countless poems, plays, paintings, and myths. Because classical artistry is based on life situations in which the commanding interference of others is a key element in the romantic relationship. We still suffer interference from interested family members, but modern romance is pretty much up to just the two people who fall in love.

Yes, it is natural to fall in love, but it is not logical. Loving feelings simply are not rational. And every person falls in love a different way. When those irrational feelings and high emotions strike, how do we decide what to do? How do we distinguish between infatuation and love? Between sincerity and flattery? Between protectiveness and power plays? We need a road map. And because every person is unique, we need many variations on this road map. Hence, all manner of romances. It’s so simple when you think about it logically: We need romances!

Of course a romance about a lonely billionaire and a spunky sculptor isn’t an exact blueprint for a happy future. If it were, we’d have fewer unhappy billionaires and starving sculptors. But learning how to recognize the person with whom you could happily spend all your life is important. Learning how to negotiate conflicts with that person in an era in which you could just walk out the door and find someone else is also important. Romances present many varieties of scenarios in which the heroines learn more about themselves and about the men for whom they care. What to fight over and what to let go. How to fight fair, for that matter. It’s marriage counseling in advance, if you will.

Do romances present plans for saving the world? Actually, yes, sometimes they do. Sometimes there’s an environmental or political issue at stake, and often there is a serious moral situation, too. Romance heroines and heroes frequently are shown asking themselves what is right and what is wrong. Many romances also deliver an inspiring message of hope in a troubled world. The characters love and survive despite hideous odds against them.

Romances are rooted in the personal, and because they are, they have tremendous emotional impact. Which means that as teaching mechanisms, they are unmatched. I guess the spoonful of sugar theory comes into play here, too. For many of us, it is easier to confront difficult life choices when they are embodied by someone else and prettied up a bit, too. Romances fulfill a very useful function of drawing us in while at the same time engaging us in a safe manner.

So, when people try to put you down for reading romances, don’t let them. You don’t have to reply with a snarl or a sneer at their ignorance. But you don’t have to feel defensive, either. Romances are big in more than one way.

36. Christopher Columbus didn't need directions, and neither do we.

37. Women wearing Wonder bras and low-cut blouses lose their right to complain about having their boobs stared at.

38. Consider Golf a mini-vacation from you. We need it, just like you do.

39. Telling us that the models in the men's magazines are airbrushed makes you look jealous and petty and it's certainly not going to deter us from reading the magazine.

40. The relationship is never going to be like it was the first two months we were going out.

Real Love

4 person in your life how many have u found?
1st-urself,
2nd-1 u love most,
3rd-1 who love u most,
4th-1 you spend the rest of your life with. ]

firstly u'll meet the 1 u love most, and learn how love feels.
Because u know how love feels, so u can find the person who loves u most.
When u've experienced the feeling of loving others and being loved, u'll then know what it is u need most. Then u will find the person who is most suitable for u, to be able to spend the rest of your life with.

Sadly,in real life,these 3 people are usually not the same person.
The one u love most doesn't love you. The one,who love u most,is never the one u love most. And the one u spend your life with,is never the one u love most or the one who love u most.

He/she is just the person who happens to be at the right place at the right time.

Which person are u in other people's life?
No person will purposely have a change of heart.
At the point in time when he loves u, he/she really loves u.
But when he/she doesn't love u anymore, he/she really doesn't love u anymore.
When he/she loves u, he/she can't pretend that he/she doesn't.
same goes, when he/she loves u no more, there's no way he/she can pretend he/she loves u. When a person doesn't love u and wants to leave u. u must ask yourself if u still love him/her, If u also don't love him/her anymore, do not keep him/her just to save your pride. If you still love him/her, you should wish him/her happiness, and hope that he/she will be with the one he/she loves most, not stop him/her from it. If you stop him/her from finding true happiness with the one he/she loves, it shows u already don't love him/her, And if you don't love him/her, what rights do you have to blame him/her for a change of heart?

Love is not possessive, if you like the moon, you can't just take it down and put it in your basin, But the moonlight still shines upon you. In other words, when you love a person, you can use another method of possessing the person. Let him/her become a permanent memory in you life. If you really love a person, you must love him/her for what he/she is. Love him/her for his/her good points, and the bad, You can't wish for him/her to become like what you like him/her to be just because you love him/her. If he/she can't change to become what you like him/her to be, you don't love him/her anymore. When you really love a person, you cannot find a reason why you love him/her, You only know that no matter when and where, good mood or bad mood, you will wish to have this person be with you.

Real love is when two people can go through the toughest problems without asking for promises or listing criteria. In a relationship, you have to put in effort and give in at times, not always be on the receiving end. Being away from each other is a type of test, If the relationship isn't strong, then you can only admit defeat. Real love will never become hate.

When two people are in love, They love to ask each other to swear, to make promises. Why do they ask each other to swear and promise? Because they don't trust each other,
they don't trust their lover. These swear and promises are useless; Till the sky falls, till the ocean dry, my love for u will never change! We all know that the sky will never fall; the ocean will never dry, Even if it does happen, are we still alive by then? Be careful when making promises; don't make promises that you cannot keep. Swear by things that can never happen, because it can never happen, so no harm just saying it casually. Rmember? Swearing by things that can never happen are the most touching!!? In a relationship, what you say is one thing, but what you do is another; The 1 saying, doesn't believe; the 1 listening, also doesn't believe.

A stupid mixed emotions.

Long Lost

In a dream
I can be anything
When I close my eyes
I can remember what I once had
But now you’re gone
I’m looking for you
Don’t let me fall into the darkness
The way you gave me life
I had once thought was meaningless
But you gave me hope once again
You said we would always keep each other alive
But you tried to take your life away
Leaving me alone once again
In the darkness
I lay here and cry
Hoping maybe these tears will bring you back
In my dreams we can talk forever
I just want to be with you
But when I wake up
You are gone
My first love
And my only
When they let you out
I will stand by your side
They say they love you, or they try to help
Just making it all worse
They just don’t get you
But in those dreams I can talk to you
We will laugh about those times
And even cry
I miss you more
Only a few weeks left
And maybe you will say anything that comes
They will say were too much to be
A pair that causes no good
I was once in darkness
You brought me light
The bulb has burst leaving a fallen night
A dreamless night
Bring me back my light
A tear runs down my cheek
Let me close my eyes
And fall away
So I can dream some more
For when I wake up
Its just may not be a dream anymore
Ill grave that hand
You will pull me up
From this darkness
And back into your light
Those eyes they glow an eerie mist
Because when I see you
I see the world and future
So before I die
Kiss me goodnight
Just kiss me goodnight


I Want To Be Happy

I want to be loved
I want to belong
Don’t want to cry alone
I want to laugh
Don’t want to cry
My days away
I want to be happy
I want to smile
I want my life
To be worth while …


Blinded

Standing in a meadow
Where no one can see her
Standing in a meadow
No one wants to be her
Standing in a meadow
Alone except for her
She is blinded
That’s what they say
She is blinded
But she know its ok
She is blinded
By love each and every day


Giving My Heart to You

I found you
At last
Through all of
My past
I’ve been searching
For someone like you
You’re not perfect
But that’s the way I want you
And your true
Oh but you were stolen
From me
I wish I’d have told you
I wish you could see
That my heart
I was giving you
To someone that’s not perfect
Because that’s just how I like you


Every Time

Every time I talk to you
I forget the words
That I was going to say
It is then I know I love him
All the words you say to me
I goof up and say a stupid thing
But when you say you care
It gives me such a rush


You Don’t Love Me

I realize
When you talk to me
You don’t love me
No you don’t love me
You never think of me
I’m left here alone
And alone I cry
I’m missing you
What should I do
I stand here and think of you
I even dream
Of you too
I see your face when I close my eyes
And when I talk to you
I realize
You don’t love me
And you never have


Them

People are always
Who they are not
They are never happy
With what they’ve got
They can never be real
Or let people see the way they feel
They always want what they get
If they don’t seem cool
They start to fret
Well I can see
I don’t want to be like that
I want to be more like me


Letter to Myself

Save yourself the heartache
Save yourself the pain
Save yourself the trouble
Don’t fall in love again
All you get is heartbreak
All you do is cry
All you get is heartache
And you just wish that you could die
Every time you see the guy
Your heart breaks again
Till you want to cry
But you still pretend to be nice
You feel like
You’re starting to fall
Like you’ve been slammed into a wall
Your breathing is slowing down
You lay there trying to scream
But you can’t make a sound
You lay there silently
Sobbing
And all of a sudden
Your head starts throbbing
You wonder why me
Oh what did I do
You didn’t fall for me
But I fell for you
You’re not so perfect
You’re weird like me
The way you act
In the arts
I’ll tell this to myself
I’ll never let you steal
My heart ever again
From now until forever
I’ll only call you friend
But if you promise not to brake my heart
I’ll trust you enough to borrow it


Lovers Lost

Tears stream down my face
My tongue is tied
I cannot speak
I wonder if I’ll live another day
Or for what this price I pay
My life is crumbling
Down on me
Things block my face
I cannot see
Stuff in my throat
Makes it so I cannot scream
I sit here wondering
If I will die
I sit here
And silently cry
I cannot breath I’m losing oxygen fast
One second, two seconds,
Three seconds pass
I sit here
Gasping for air
Breathing right now
Is my only care
When will someone
Find me
When will someone
Set me free
All this started
When he said no
When he said
I couldn’t do
People say it’s a Lovers Loss
But the loss isn’t mine
Because I will love to the end of tim...

Squirrels!

You can tell that Iran is feeling a little beleaguered these days when there are reports that Tehran may be under attack from rodents!
That is what the official Islamic Republic News Agency reported this week, that police had, ahem, "arrested" 14 squirrels on charges of espionage.
The rodents were found near the Iranian border, allegedly equipped with eavesdropping devices, according to IRNA.
When asked to confirm the story, Esmaeel Ahmadi Moghadam, the national police chief, said, "I have heard about it, but I do not have precise information." He declined to give any more details.
IRNA said that the squirrels were discovered by intelligence services – but were captured by police officers several weeks ago.
'Are you serious?'
The reaction to the report on Tehran’s streets was varied – from disbelief to assigning guilt for the alleged infraction.
"No, I had not heard about this, but it does not surprise me, foreign countries are always meddling in Iran," said Hassan Mohmmadi, a fast-food vendor.
Mohammadi asked me if I knew where the squirrels were from, and I told him that I didn’t know. Then he came to his own conclusions. "I bet they were British squirrels, they are the most cunning," he replied.
Meantime, an independent journalist, Sepher Sopli, was not surprised by the idea that another country would spy on Iran, so much as he was dumbfounded by their methods.
"I read this story in the papers and though it was very bizarre; what struck me as odd was that in this age of modern technology, people were relying on squirrels to do their spying," Sopli said.
But, the report was still strange enough to surprise. "That's very funny, but you’re not serious are you?" said Soraya Jafari, a student in Tehran.
Maybe not a first
Espionage not entirely foreign to animals. If true, this would not be the first time animals have been used for military endeavors.
During World War II, Allied forces used pigeons to fly vital intelligence out of occupied France.
More recently, U.S. Marines stationed in Kuwait trained chickens for a low-tech chemical detection system. It’s also well documented that dolphins have been used to seek out underwater mines.
Spying is something that is taken seriously in any country, especially in a place like Iran, where numerous people are currently being held on charges of espionage.
Still, the squirrels that breached the Iranian border carrying sensitive spying equipment must have been nuts.

sick or sane?

Its been over a year since I've turned into the person I am. I don't know what turned me like this. The lady who writes and questions me thinks its my family. They don't know what to think. They miss the smileing little girl with long blond hair that told them of her day. I'm not the same kid I was when I was younger, and they will never know. I was the best they said. Now I'm not longer trusted by him, but atleast she still does. I want to find a way to forget everything that I know. They dont get this. I've just been going down hill. This house I live in is cursed. They don't undestand why I want to end this all. They think if I just swallow them down my throat it will cure this all. Well thats how I tried to end it all. I sew my mouth and they think its all okay. Maybe I'm okay and I've lost control of the only thing in life I thought I had a hold of. So I can't control myself. They think If I talk about it everything will be okay. What am I to say to them to leave me alone. ' I'M OKAY! I'M NOT CRAZY! NOTHINGS WRONG!' They dont get this. He wants me to get all the help I need. I dont need it he does, but he doesnt get it! I lost a perfect person to drugs, and anouther to an abuser. I can't forget a someone who was a deep love. They tell me somethings not right with all of this. It's like a cloud is always following me. Im a plauge. I don't know what has changed me. They think Its her. Shes a bad influence. You take her away you midaswell pull the triger. The little girl they all know has died and she will never come back, but they don't see that. I murdered her a long time ago. I don't trust anyone anymore. They never see what this does to them. Am I the only one that sees what this mass media does? They always expect something from me. They are expecting me to give them the answer of whats wrong with me. Its not that easy. They want to know why I chose to do all the things I've done. Well I dont know. So tell me how I'm to answer this and what to do. I have no control of what my life chooses! I didn't choose to be this like they believe. This is what holds me down. Why do we even care. Its not like its gonna matter in anouther 100 years. This life is a game of Russian Rulet. I swear that if I could I would take away all the pain I've caused everyone. I hold something, but I should just set it free before its taken away. I want it all to stop. Theres no bright side to this. Maybe this time I won't pretend to be alright and smile. Maybe I am alright if I can think and function.

friendship

Love You Guys!

Met my friends on net!.. I am proud to say our friendship still lives on and is growing stronger each day. Many people had doubts that we would remain friends for such a long period of time since we are total opposites in everything...clothes, music, taste in guys (which is a good thing)....people ask me how is it possible that we remained such wonderful friends if we had nothing in common but the reason that people couldn't understand our close bond was because they weren't looking hard enough, they couldn't see that we did have something in common and that was we both knew how to laugh. Every time we would see each other we would be laughing and having fun, we never took ourselves too seriously and accepted each other's differences and faults, which is what I think kept that strong bond between us. People make mistakes and friends will always make mistakes but you have to learn to shrug your shoulders and accept that we're all only human! and we can't be perfect which is what most people are looking for....that PERFECT friend who will never slip up or do anything wrong, but I'm afraid they are searching for something that does not exist, nobody is perfect, people have to learn to forgive and forget. But most importantly my best friend and I have trust which is the key to any friendship, without trust you have nothing. If you don't trust the person with your life then that person is not a friend but merely an acquaintance. We have shared of good times and bad times, of laughter and tears, we have guided and helped each other through the hard times. Our footsteps have always been side by side never behind or in front. I've loved her & I've hated her but I've never given up or abandoned her, and I know it goes both ways since I haven't exactly been a flawless friend and I'm sorry for that. I love the fact that I could leave for years and not see her (it would kill me though) and know without a doubt that when I return she will still be here for me waiting with open arms. She is my guardian angel fallen from heaven. Thank you to all my friends for all that you've given me and taught me through the years and for always being there and I'm sorry for all the times I let you down. I love you with all my heart and soul. Forever Friends… LOVE YOU GUYS! hehehehe!

Recently, one of my best friends,
whom I've shared just about
everything with since the first day of kindergarten, spent the weekend
with me. Since I moved to a new
town several years ago, we've both always looked forward
to the few times a year when we can see each other.

Over the weekend, we spent hours and hours, staying up
late into the night, talking about the people she was
hanging around with. She started telling me stories about
her new boyfriend, about how he experimented with drugs
and was into other self-destructive behavior. I was blown
away! She told me how she had been lying to her parents
about where she was going and even sneaking out to se
e this guy because they didn't want her around him. No
matter how hard I tried to tell her that she deserved better,
she didn't believe me. Her self-respect seemed to have
disappeared.

I tried to convince her that she was ruining her future and
heading for big trouble. I felt like I was getting nowhere. I
just couldn't believe that she really thought it was
acceptable to hang with a bunch of losers, especially her
boyfriend.

By the time she left, I was really worried about her and
exhausted by the experience. It had been so frustrating, I
had come close to telling her several times during the
weekend that maybe we had just grown too far apart to
continue our friendship - but I didn't. I put the power of
friendship to the ultimate test. We'd been friends for far too
long. I had to hope that she valued me enough to know
that I was trying to save her from hurting herself. I wanted
to believe that our friendship could conquer anything.

A few days later, she called to say that she had thought
long and hard about our conversation, and then she told me
that she had broken up with her boyfriend. I just listened on
the other end of the phone with tears of joy running down
my face. It was one of the truly rewarding moments in my
life. Never had I been so proud of a friend.

A story of real friendship

One day, when I was a freshman in high school, I saw a kid from my class was walking home from school. His name was Kyle. It looked like he was carrying all of his books. I thought to myself, 'Why would anyone bring home all his books on a Friday? He must really be a nerd.' I had quite a weekend planned (parties and a football game with my friend tomorrow afternoon), so I shrugged my shoulders and went on. As I was walking, I saw a bunch of kids running towards him. They ran at him, knocking all his books out of his arms and tripping him so he landed in the dirt. His glasses went flying, and I saw them land in the grass about ten feet from him. He looked up and I saw this terrible sadness in his eyes. My heart went out to him. So, I jogged over to him and as he crawled around looking for his glasses, and I saw a tear in his eye. As I handed him his glasses, I said, 'Those guys are jerks. They really should get lives.' He looked at me and said, 'Hey thanks!' There was a big smile on his face. It was one of those smiles that showed real gratitude. I helped him pick up his books, and asked him where he lived. As it turned out, he lived near me, so I asked him why I had never seen him before. He said he had gone to private school before now. I would have never hung out with a private school kid before. We talked all the way home, and I carried his books. He turned out to be a pretty cool kid. I asked him if he wanted to play football on Saturday with me and my friends. He said yes. We hung all weekend and the more I got to know Kyle, the more I liked him. And my friends thought the same of him. Monday morning came, and there was Kyle with the huge stack of books again. I stopped him and said, 'Damn boy, you are gonna really build some serious muscles with this pile of books everyday!' He just laughed and handed me half the books. Over the next four years, Kyle and I became best friends. When we were seniors, we began to think about college. Kyle decided on Georgetown, and I was going to Duke. I knew that we would always be friends, that the miles would never be a problem. He was going to be a doctor, and I was going for business on a football scholarship. Kyle was valedictorian of our class . I teased him all the time about being a nerd. He had to prepare a speech for graduation. I was so glad it wasn't me having to get up there and speak. Graduation day, I saw Kyle. He looked great. He was one of those guys that really found himself during high school. He filled out and actually looked good in glasses. He had more dates than me and all the girls loved him! Boy, sometimes I was jealous. Today was one of those days. I could see that he was nervous about his speech. So, I smacked him on the back and said, 'Hey, big guy, you'll be great!' He looked at me with one of those looks (the really grateful one) and smiled. 'Thanks,' he said. As he started his speech, he cleared his throat, and began. 'Graduation is a time to thank those who helped you make it through those tough years. Your parents, your teachers, your siblings, maybe a coach… but mostly your friends. I am here to tell all of you that being a friend to someone is the best gift you can give them. I am going to tell you a story.' I just looked at my friend with disbelief as he told the story of the first day we met. He had planned to kill himself over the weekend. He talked of how he had cleaned out his locker so his Mom wouldn't have to do it later and was carrying his stuff home. He looked hard at me and gave me a little smile. 'Thankfully, I was saved. My friend saved me from doing the unspeakable.' I heard the gasp go through the crowd as this handsome, popular boy told us all about his weakest moment. I saw his Mom and dad looking at me and smiling that same grateful smile. Not until that moment did I realise it's depth.Never underestimate the power of your actions. With one small gesture you can change a person's life. For better or for worse. " Friends are angels who lift us to our feet when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly "

Sunsets of Yesterday

Things you never have known, never heard, never saw and most of all you never felt;
surely you never knew what you have been missing till it’s gone. You regret that you
haven’t given him a little time to cherish the bond. But it’s never to late.. I hope.

I used to remember way back you don’t want us to go home late because we’ll never
know the danger in the streets and we can’t trust the people around us. I’m used to
ignore you, there were times I was thinking you don’t want us to have fun or meet
friends and just want us to stay and bore ourselves at home. This made me rebel
against you. The more you imprisoned me home the more I tried to go home late and
sneak out at night.

Until I started my life at your back; Doing things I never had done and never thought I
could. Curiosity really kills especially if it satisfies my freedom. Yes I thought I was
free, free to do what I want; go wherever I want to go and be with any person I want to.
But as time passed me by I started to regret that living. There are times when I was so afraid and you have no one to comfort me, I have these questions that none could answer and I experienced unbearable pain that none was there by my side.

Form the looks of it now; though unscathed I am still hurting inside and though untamed I long to be loved. The scars of the past ache and tears keep flowing every night. These tough time I remember you “Dad nobody wants to love your baby”, I cried out. Your little princess had been wounded by those wicked princes who took pleasures of her innocence. I can no longer hear her laugh; I cease to see her smiles. She had her own world and nobody wants to be apart of it.

I can hardly keep up with the pace of life because I continue to dwell on my past that keeps on haunting me. The heat days were ground sweats while lazy dreaming body too sleepy to move just stray. The cold nights were darkness was defied by colored lights and wasted soul’s lust to drink their life away. Waking up on shambles of host you just stumble into and trying to run home before daylight catches you. Burning lines, mosquito bites and late night shows while the other end of the line was already plotting his lies on you. Extravagance on every happy outs were every sweat from your toil been wasted on insensitive souls who never cared at all. And most of all the promises that have been given, broken and I keep on forgiving. All these for a piece of happiness that I longed to possessed.

All the while I was blinded by the flashy lights of desire that I have forgotten what I already have. What I have adhere was totally here with me and now He confiscated you. I have never really told you that I love you. I dreamt of you I already ask for forgiveness and hope you really did as what you have said in my dream. And yes I will change just like what I have promise you. Thank you for everything. I know your always at our side.

i was gang raped.. damn u!

A woman at a bar on a Saturday night
was taken by 5 men, who, according to
hospital and police reports, gang
raped her before dumping her. Unable
to remember the events of the evening,
tests later confirmed the repeat
rapes, along with traces of Rohypnolin
her blood and Progesterex,
esse ntially a small sterilization
pil l.

The drug is now being used by rapist
sat parties to rape AND sterilize their
victims. Progesterex is available tovets to
sterilize large animals.
Progeste rex is being used together
with Rohypnol, the date rape drug.

As with Rohypnol, all they have to do
is drop it into the girl's drink. The
girl can't remember a thing the next
morning, of all that had taken place
the night before. Progesterex, which
dissolves in drinks just as easily, is
such that the victim doesn't get
pregnant; she won't conceive from the
rape and the rapist needn't worry
about having a paternity test
identifying him months later.

The drug's effects ARE NOT TEMPORARY -
They are P*E*R*M*A*N* E*N*T!!!
Progeste rex was designed to sterilize
horses. . Any female who takes it will
NEVER BE ABLE TO CONCEIVE... The
weasels can get this drug from anyone
who is in the vet school or any
university.It's that easy, and Progesterex is
about to break out big on campuses
everywhe re. Believe it or not, there
are even sites on the Internet telling
people how to use it.
Please forward this to everyone you
know, especially girls... Be careful
when you're out and don't leave your
drink unattended.

Many times in my life!

Many times in my life I have disappointed you,
and begun to stray.
But you have pointed me in the right direction,
and sent me on my way.

Many times in my life I've needed a helping hand,
and someone to pull me up.
It was you who gave that helping hand,
and always cheered me up.

Many times I've been sad and down,
and taken it out on you.But you
stood by me and comforted me,
In times that I was bad.

Many times I've needed support,
and to know someone was there.
It was you who held me up,
and showed me how to care.

Many times I've wanted to tell you this,
But never got a chance.
You have helped me out in life,
and got me where I am.

You were there for me through thick and thin,
You never gave up on me and you taught me how to care.
From the deepest of my heart I want to say I love you,
And to thank you for being there for me in times of good or bad.

Who Am I?

I am ...
A womanWith a full heart,
hiddenSomewhere in an empty room ...
With eyes not quite of autumn's gold, and yet
Neither all of summer's green;

I wonder ...
If love is a tale made for children --
A granting of sweet dreams in their innocence --
A honey-coating to help their throats
Choke down the bitter draught ...

I hear ...
A voice that whispers warnings, half-formed,
Bodiless as hope, until I swear I cannot draw
Another breath unless this spectre be unmasked,
His lies mangled ‘neath my righteous tread;

I see ...
A woman, proud, uncompromising,
Diaphanous as air -- less, even, than the tears
That fall in desolation about her weary feet,
Salt poison pooled upon the withered ground ...

I want ...
A measure of quietude, a certain silence,
The echo of alone which heals me of dreaming,T
he nothing that stills the wanting,
The numb, the cold that laughs at pain;

I am
A woman,
hidden ...

I pretend ...
That I can live forever -- that Time
Has no puissance but that which I afford Him --
And so, I can wait, I can be happy tomorrow,
Sleep is for the dead; but its ghosts haunt my waking ...

I feel ...
Too much -- too deeply to be directionless,
Too real for imagining, and yet the familiar eyes
Hold nothing of recognition -- only my reflection --
A meeting of shadows in sunlit glass;

I touch ...
The downy wings of hope, in wonder,
In reverence, in need, in hunger;
Alas, it burns my fingers as a flame,
A sacrilege, self-defined ...

I worry ...
That I am alone; that in my longing
I have forsaken all -- but oh, what reward,
What smile divine should light the path to freedom --
And how can I but heed the siren's call?

I cry ...
For having too much, for fear of bursting,
And then, when by the pouring of my soul
I lie, a vessel emptied, I cry again
For what was had, and lost;

I am...
A woman,
empty ...

I understandThat life is what you make it,
That sometimes, the coat of many colors
That marks your triumphs brightly, blends only
To loneliest of grey ...

I say
That we are made by life, shaped,
Broken, perhaps -- unmade and voided --But always, the core of us remains, waiting
With only faith, with trust, to be reborn;

I dream
Of bluest waters, reaching
With unnatural hands toward the faded sky,
Of dolphins that wander in seas without limits,
Carrying me water-breathing past corals and clouds ...

I try ...
To lead by example, knowing
That merely the telling holds no power;
A gift of giving is merely a day, while
A gift of knowing spans forever;

I hope ...
That my darkness holds you gently,
That pain is halved by sharing, that feeling
Wields nothing past the words it summons,
Except that it touch you with only healing ...
I am
A woman,only.

As you are met and faced with Life's Tug of War

There are days when

bubbling from us come

sthe innocent child within,

who giggles at the little things

and wears a silly grin.

There are days when

melancholy comes to

visit for a while;

the mind feels tired, the body weak;

we have no strength to smile.

There are days when

joy abundant

grabs a hold of you and me;

wraps us up in all it's splendor,

lifts us up and sets us free.

There are days when

sorrow wraps us

in its cloak of grief and fear,'

till our hearts ache to the breaking,'

till our eyes can't shed a tear.

There are days when

love bestows us

with its wonderment and light;

with its beauty and its mystery,

its power and its might.

And there are days when

life rewards us

and seems to make amends

by granting us a marvelous gift,t

he precious gift of Friends.
