  1. Hi Lordie, Have you tried www. eharmony. com yet? There is also www. match . com. And if you are a Christian, there is www. christianmingle. com I hope things work out for you. Don't just sit around waiting for someone to fall on your lap from the sky. There are so many nice people out there that we would not be able to meet otherwise! =)
  2. Hi grateful, This is a lovely tribute for your friend. I did not know the song. Sorry for your loss! My thoughts are with you!! Lannah
  3. Today i want to give thanks for the gift of family. I see my children, my son is 23 and my daughter is 21, and i love the adults they have turned into. I am very proud of the people they have grown up to be. I feel that they are special, very special. I know that everyone's child is special, but in the case of my children, I feel they are very special because i actually could not have children! I had 4 miscarriages before my son was born! So the fact that they made it into this world does not cease to amaze me, even now when they are adults! For a long time they were the center of my life. I feel blessed to the core of my being, for having been allowed to bring them into the world, and to be their mother as they were growing up. They are now my closest friends, and i thank God and Life for that gift!
  4. Hi Lordie, You know what has worked for me? e harmony! I met my Malcolm there in July 2007, and we are still together! I would have never run into him on the street of where i live or work, because geographical we did not coincide. My colleague Teri, met her boyfriend on e harmony too. After struggling with dating guys that she met here and there. Her now beau is a pastor, and is sweet, kind and handsome. They've been together for over a year now. AND, my son met his fiance on e harmony too! They would have never met either, for it goes back to people being in spaces that never connect. Erica lived in the Northern Chicago suburbs, and went to school at Loyola Univ (on the extreme East side). She worked full-time and studied half time. We live in the Near West suburbs, and my son went to school also in the Near West Suburbs. He studied full-time and worked 2 jobs. Had it not been for the e harmony, they would have never connected. We, my daughter, Malcolm and I, LOVE Erica! She's an amazing young woman, the sister my daughter always wanted. She loves and understands my son. And Malcolm always says: Gabriel doesn't know how lucky he is to have found her, now, that they are both young and will be able to build a life and a family together. Malcolm was married twice. Both marriages lasted 3 years. Both of his ex-wives left him. He and i have been friends since 2007, and officially became a couple in 2010. So we have been together, as a romantic couple for 3 years. Our relationship is going on to 6 years. That is longer than his marriages, and longer than mine! (i was married to the children's father for 5 years). All the guys i had dated were not interested in a serious relationship. And i don't want a frivolous relationship. If you specifically want a Christian man, there is christian mingle, which is only for Christian singles/couples. e harmony allows for more variety. Don't stop praying! I had felt that God had forgotten to make someone for me! It turned out that we were in different locations, and because we are so compatible and committed, and happy with each other, have made this long distance relationship work! Because we really click together!! Pray about it, and i would recommend trying it out. The worst that could happen is that you do not find anyone. Which by the looks of it, it is already happening. The best that could happen is that you find your soul mate! It has worked for us!!! For real!!! I am not paid to advertise the company!! Blessings!!
  5. Greetings brothers and sisters! I am what you would call a "low maintenance" type of person. I am not an optimist, nor a pessimist. I feel i am a realist, but not a sarcastic or cynical realist. It is easy for me to feel grateful for many things, in spite of going thru difficult periods in life. TODAY i am grateful for the sun and the blue sky!! We have had SO much rain and so many cloudy days, that we had forgotten what the colors blue and yellow looked like! I am also grateful that God made animals. It has been fun watching the animals come out, now that we are in some semblance of spring: rabbits, squirrels, muskrats, snakes, and many, many birds which had left for the winter. And of course, the very best animals in the planet, my doggies! Today i am grateful that it is a lovely, sunny, warm day, where i can take Seymour and Toby (my Corgis) out for a long walk. They are grateful for the warmth, the sunshine and the green grass. They will lie down in the grass to sunbathe, and they will eat the grass, because they are happy and grateful cow-dogs. They are black and white too, which is the color on many -a- cows! I hope it is sunny and shiny where you are!!
