I developed a lot of calm and enjoyment spending time alone while never losing my enthusiasm for socializing and being the center of attention. I still like both.<BR/><BR/>I also left a long impassioned rant on AJ's site just now in support of her post about blood diamonds. Please assure her that I was not trying to take over her blog. I merely let my many thoughts on the subject (developed while alone!) take over. <BR/><BR/>Ironically, I had even been thinking about the subject a couple of days ago and made a reference to the issue. It involved an anti-blood diamond movie told from an arm's dealer's perspective to make a point in strong support of Obama! How weird is that?KELSO'S NUTShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14636889771989672795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4650845911079200343.post-40062072005345803182008-08-29T10:43:00.000-04:002008-08-29T10:43:00.000-04:00Ah, but it's so hard sometimes to be alone and to ...Ah, but it's so hard sometimes to be alone and to face all that crap... but yes, it's true.NoRegretshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13240929627271129160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4650845911079200343.post-67044492062838663922008-08-29T10:41:00.000-04:002008-08-29T10:41:00.000-04:00I agree with this on so many levels.

When we love ourselves and are able to be ok with being alone, then you are able to bring your true self to a relationship.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4650845911079200343.post-13964230801220803652008-08-29T09:25:00.000-04:002008-08-29T09:25:00.000-04:00I treasure my aloneness, and always have.

Each of us has the potential to be a fascinating being, but we only discover this by discovering our selves, who we are, and what we think. <BR/><BR/>Some people freak, get depressed, run from one relationship to the next, and do crazy self-defeating things just so they won't be alone. <BR/><BR/>What is it about their selves that's so undesirable that they run from spending quality time with their thoughts? <BR/><BR/>*ponders*<BR/><BR/>You are never freer than you when you spend the time getting to know what's in your heart, what's in the traffic of your mind & in the wilderness of your spirit. For me, that ish is so damn cleansing & informative & necessary.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Snatch JOY!<BR/><BR/>One.Moanerplicityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02750801733829859144noreply@blogger.com
