A Time for Reflection # 49
|
A Time for Reflection # 49 As the page 📖 has turned from one year to the next, I like to sit back and reflect on things in terms of my time on this site and personally, out in the 'real world'. 2018 was an interesting year, filled with highs and lows. People bickering on here about the proper use of blogs, erotic stories and the magazine section. Others complaining about being bombarded with unwelcomed 'dick pics'. Some trying to publicly shame those who couldn't accept No for an answer. The push to be #1 on the various blog lists. People 'threatening' to leave, then back-pedalling. Some who seem to thrive on drama, creating it and perpetuating it. Friendships made and lost. Personally, I have discovered how much I enjoy the freedom to fill my 'space' the way that I am comfortable. I didn’t set out with a goal of achieving a certain number of ‘watchers’ 👀 nor do I post expecting a certain number of comments ✍️. However, whenever someone takes time 🕰 out of their day to stop by my space, it really is a bonus. 💯 never looked and felt so good. I allowed myself to get drawn into the 'blog wars'. The pettiness of the 'she said, she said' nonsense really has no place on here. Going forward, I will not do that again. Unless something derogatory is directed at me personally, I will keep my mouth shut. I also had the opportunity to travel 🏙 to some places I had only read about or seen on tv. I also enjoyed being a tourist in my own city and country. I am looking to do more this year. I am an avid reader, signing out 10-12 books 📚 every 21 days. Many new authors caught my attention and have been added to my 'must-read list'. Movies 🎥 are something else I enjoy, though some will argue otherwise. Amongst the 'gems' I saw were: 'Molly's Game'; 'The Book Club'; 'Crazy Rich Asians'; 'Sharkwater Extinction' and 'A Star Is Born'. I lost a dear Aunt who was like a second Mother to me. She was the rock of the family and ruled with an iron fist. However I could talk to her about anything and I miss her dearly. I also came face-to-face with my own mortality. I was told more than once, that I must have a guardian angel 👼🏻 looking out for me and that many don't survive. Seeing my specialist beaming from ear-to-ear while he told me that the reason I am still here is because I am a strong, resilient woman, is an image I will never forget. I am not totally out of the woods yet, but I can assure you, life is precious and should never be taken for granted. I will continue to get stronger and put myself first and foremost. So why do I stay on here? Because I can. I don't have to explain myself to anyone. I do smile when I am told that I am 'way too normal' or 'far too nice' to be on here. I am me. I don't try nor pretend to be anyone else. Who you encounter on here, is the same woman who would meet 'out there'. Today is the first day of 2019. I can’t wait to see how it unfolds!  |

Do you pause to reflect on the past and to consider the future?

Only momentarily.. otherwise I'd tend to get bogged down in yesterday... THIS moment is the only one, I can control, and at best - it's an illusion that I have, complete control. It sounds like you've had an interesting year with challenges that you've faced and overcome! Good luck here in blog land - it looks like you've got a loyal and growing following. All the best for 2019! May health follow you every day! 😘❤️ ... is there another way to look at it Going Too Fucking Far NEW Blog Features RevealeD O O A Foolproof Method Posted Over on that NEW site O O

Do you pause to reflect on the past and to consider the future? When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

Happy New Year and may you find all you are looking for in 2019.

happy new Year

Life in general has become filled with stuff, good and not so good, so there is little time to reflect on the past or to consider the future. Life also has a habit of interfering with future plans.

Thank you my friend. May 2019 bring you all that you desire.

Thank you. Wishing the same to you also.

Happy New Year my friend! I wish you the best for 2019, what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger my friend! The nonsense on here never ends my friend, I am ashamed to have been part of the drama in the past, but we can't change the past, but now we have to confront this issue head on, time for change here hopefully enough people feel the same.

Marvelous observations!!! I wish you nothing but goodness and health in 2019. Personal healthy steps and freshness are yours for the taking. The blog bashing will go on but I for one will stay away from it- it is not healthy and I need ,like you, every good day I can get. (Virtual Symposium Group) use Virtual Symposium Group

But do not mistake it for complacency. I hope 2019 brings you all that you desire.
