Ever wonder??

Ever wonder??



Finding myself reflecting tonight....(OK....thinking too damn much about too damn much)....

Two years ago, my life changed this week....

I gained something, and I lost someone....

What I gained changed my life. I discovered I had HSV....(NOT HIV...there is a difference)...It didn't matter when, where, or how....It changed the way I did many things.....it opened an amazing journey for me.....it probably kept me from being TOC.....(totally out of control).....

It didn't change ME; I'm still the same....probably even better....but it sure changed the way people perceived me....More than once I've been told to play with a "no ask no tell" mindset....No way.....just not me....But I do wonder; what might have been....

I believe in reaping what you sow; do unto others; what goes around comes around; and Karma is an ass kicking bitch...And everyone has the right to make an informed choice...

Two years ago, I lost someone.....the same day.....not because of, but related to.....Karma was a bitch....for him....

And I'm still left wondering.......what might have been.....

I know other's have their own "what might have been" moments.....
Feel free to share, or just give a if you know how I feel but don't wish to share....

My what might have been moment would be "Where would I be if I hadn't gone to that AOL chat room booty call with the woman who I eventually married?"
I would have somewhere in the neighborhood of $100,000.00 more in my bank account which would be a positive. I wouldn't have my son though which would be a negative.

What goes around, comes around... that is why the world is round! I used to laugh when my younger sister said that! I am not laughing now! Lol I must have been a real bitch in a past life, and broken a lot of hearts to have deserved the punishment I have received in this lifetime! And to think I still have quite a bit of life to go? Damn!

Always do unto others as you would have done unto you because that karmic wheel just keeps on turning, and one day you just might find yourself on the other end of that wheel. And do be careful of those seeds you plant... as surely you will reap what you sow! Take it from the garden boy... he knows!

Thoughts from the Garden...

Thank you for sharing...

And I would say, gaining your son definately puts you in the positive side....

When pushed, provoked, lied to or used, this little 5'3" package can be an ashift2shift2 bitch!!.....(Ok....had to throw that reference in there)....

Seriously.....I can cut someone to shreds with a look and just the right (or wrong) words.....but I don't....I HATE to think I've wronged someone, caused grief or harm, or just hurt someone's feelings.

I've always tried to live by the Golden Rule....

You reap WHAT you sow; MORE than you sow; LATER than you sow...

I must have been a royal bitch in the past as well....as opposed to a peasant one now. Your writings are perhaps a penance?? I know they have touched many here.....

May the rest of your life be filled with fulfilling love, peace, and contentment.....

I trust that you already know my what-might-have-been story, though I prefer to think of it as a what-might-yet-still-be one, for though Karma IS a bitch, she is also a totally unpredictable one.

Merry Christmas hon. HUGE HUG – and I thought you WERE “OOC”

Thank you Margot....So much I could say about this, but maybe some time later....For years, I thought I was "safe"; only because my yearly testing DIDN'T include HSV.....and because I had been totally monogamous....faithful.....one partner....

Happy Holidays to you....

That sadly seems to be a common story for a lot of women I know factorye and I applaud you for being open it lets you seperate they jackasses who know nothing and those who are educated about it all damn quick.

Don't compromise yourself! You are all you've got!

Thanks AK....It is quite common; more so than many realize because it is not generally included when one asks for testing.....I got tested for years, ASSuming it was part of my annual checkup....It wasnt.....not even 10 years ago when I developed a common female infection....my first and only....after my husband had been unfaithful....for the second KNOWN time....and I had been completely faithful....him being my only partner ever...at that time....

Sadly I have been doing a lot of research on this subject. According to web md 1 in 5. But I know that suspect the number is even bigger than that. And the "vaccine" doesn't even cover all the strains that are out there. And even the tests arent that reliable.

Don't compromise yourself! You are all you've got!

You are correct....and the numbers vary from source to source....
Funny; no one thinks too much of a cold sore....until it changes location...Same virus....different location...

Yes it is and hopefully with blogs like your people will educate themselves.

Wow Cary....that is Most Definately a "what if" moment.

I've learned that those types of things really do determine our future, for better or worse.

Sounds like you have not let it make yours worse....

I hope the absolute best for you, and that life gives you all it's best.
