What do you do when you're feeling sad?

May 28th 2008 10:07

A movie can make me feel sad, when I see a child hurt or crying I feel sad, when I hear of someone in my family having difficulties I feel sad but sometimes that can make me feel angry too, depending on what is happening.

I feel sad when my dad calls me different, I know it's true, but it still hurts, I know I should talk about that with him but that would make him feel hurt as he loves us all so much, me included, so I just let it roll over my head.

I feel sad when Tinkerbelle suddenly decides she does not want anything to do with me, you know how cats are. But she comes around in her own time and at her own pace so I just forgive her. We love each other so much.

I feel sad when Andrew goes off to his wretched farm and I know if we get married I'll be something of a farm widow a bit like some are a "golf" widow, especially when I give up work.

But mostly I'm happy and quite contented with my lot in life, after all I do have a lot to be appreciative of.

Sometimes I do feel lonely and that makes me sad, but it doesn't last for long as I keep so busy.

But what are the things that make YOU feel sad, does it happen often, and what do you do to come out of it or do you simply wait for it to pass.

For some it never passes and these are the truly depressed, that must be an awful way to be.

I wonder if I'll always feel as I do now, I know when I get married things will change a lot, and sometimes I worry about that, but we can't see into the future or CAN WE?

So, what is it that you do when you're feeling sad?

Do you think your family is dysfunctional?

May 20th 2008 08:46

I just love those crystals, somehow they seem very symbolic to me, symbolic of what I am unable to say but they are also very pretty.

The weeks are just galloping by and even though it is not necessary that I work long hours and besides I would simply just not do it, there never seems to be enough time in the day and I really look forward to my weekends.

I was talking to my mum on the weekend asking her about her marriage to dad, we are a very close, well close is perhaps not quite the word, let's say connected, but mum keeps us that way, well, anyway, I was asking Mum just what she thinks of marriage and to my surprise she was rather hesitant to respond.

She said what a good dad we all had and how lucky we were to have such a nice home, and then, when I asked her what marriage meant to her she started to look a bit puzzled.

Her response was not what I expected and she said how wonderful it was to have a family and security and she felt she was lucky that she was such a good housekeeper, saying that she had her doubts about me.

This really surprised me as it was always dad who countered everything with "well, you always were different, Crystal, too bright really and none of us ever expected you to be good in the house".

Well I may not be wonderful but I do manage.

I asked mum if she thought she'd missed out on anything, and she replied "further education, the chance to build a career and that now she felt it was too late and they did not really need the money anyway"

This led to more talk about families and I asked her what she thought a dysfunctional family was.

She replied that she thought all families were dysfunctional to some extent and some were very dysfunctional which led to a lot of unhappiness.

I must say I was quite shocked but somehow the topic changed and we resumed our usual talk about our own family and the grandchildren with Mother being her usual discreet self.

Ever since I just can't help thinking of the people I know and of their families and I must say all families seemed to have their fair share of problems but most I would not have thought of as dysfunctional.

I know many of my readers come from dysfunctional families and I am hoping I may be doing just a little to encourage them to make a good life for themselves despite their very obvious bad start in life.

So how do you feel about families and do you think yours is in any way dysfunctional?

Your comments would be greatly appreciated, despite the fact that none of you seemed to have any ideas as to a good Honeymoon destination.

Let's hope at least some of you will be brave, otherwise it just remains between me and my readers who I have quite a number of, despite my infrequent posting.

Well????????

How do you feel about Honeymoons and where would you like to go?

May 14th 2008 10:06

It's now time to move on, for the time being, from fear love hate, but I shall return.

It appears I do not have many ( if any) fans on Orble but I do have some out in the bigger Orb of life and so, for the time being, I think I should continue as I could be helping a few people and some are looking for a better way of life. We can't all have an education like mine, an income and assets like mine and a family like mine, but everyone can try to have aspirations and find out that by trying to change their crcumstances just a little and getting a better opinion of themselves they may be able to contribute to their own salvation if it's salvation they want.

Improving things just a little can lead to long term gains. Staying where you are, or even descending further into the quagmire, through drugs and bad relationships and by treating sex in such a bad way as many do and reaping some of the bad results from that does not lead to happiness.

But, let's look at more positive things and see what is going on in my life for me and Andrew and we certainly have the world at our feet, but we have both studied and worked hard and led decent lifestyles and now we are reaping the benefits and I don't think we have missed much at all.

I'm starting to get really excited as Andrew and I have been doing a lot of talking with respect of our future life together and sorting out our differences and agreeing to compromise. We both want children and have had good role models in life. For those who have not I feel the deepest sympathy.

My excitement is all about the thought of getting engaged and for Andrew this can't happen quickly enough, I am a little more hesitant, but there is something very special about getting an engagement ring, having the party, planning the wedding and planning for a family.

By leading decent lifestyles to date we are now benefitting.

Remember it's not so long ago that I had never had a boyfriend, and nothing will convince me that hopping into bed with whoever is available for however brief a period of time belongs on the 'yellow brick road' to happiness.

Self restraint will be necessary at various periods throughout one's life and the sooner that is learned the better, expecially when there are children to be considered.

So now that all the waiting and planning has been done, there are some very exciting times ahead and I'm thrilled at the thought.

And I'm wondering what other people's thoughts about the Honeymoon are?

Where would you like to go for a Honeymoon and what are your feeling about this.

Andrew has made his feelings well known, he just can't wait, he's getting very excited about his role in all of this, wouldn't you know?

So how do you feel about the Honeymoon, come on, join in the show, let's get some fantasy going here, not everything in life is meant to be serious.
