It's Friday! What Have You Learned?

[_Raven_]

I've learned that the only thing that really matters to me is that she's happy, healthy and sure of my feelings for her.

I learned an important life lesson this week.
As much as I try to understand and even make excuses the behavior of the people I know perhaps even blaming myself in entirety, and to be honest I do so that a lot, some people however, are just insensitive and plain cruel. They are centered on their own Lit dramas to the exclusion of all else, nothing more or less than that. Who am I to judge or condemn I can only accept try to understand and move on.

This week I found that I was in remission and plan to let nothing or no one rain on my parade, least of all the ones who professed to be my friends or the ones who once said they loved or cared for me. Not a query when I was ill not a, “wow that’s wonderful Yeishia," when I got my test results. I honestly think a certain someone would have preferred that I had died and simply faded from this place. Sorry Sir not today, this board is big enough for all of us to co-exist in harmony.

Ezra Pound was correct when he said we all come here carrying baggage to escape, or heal in some small way. I understand that all to well. He was incorrect when he said we all share our deep dark secrets, I learned early on when I discovered it was common practice to exchange private PM's and IM"s and when private conversations were routinely aired on in the public lounges, to dilute severely what I shared with others, even those close to me on Lit.

I posted a quote once, share a lie and if it remains a secret you can then share the truth, so far............

I have made some real true friendships here that keep everything firmly in perspective for me, for those friends I am so grateful.

I learned this week that my heart is still huge and that I can forgive and wish even the people who have hurt me love and happiness. I continue to send love and good thoughts their way hoping they will find the inner peace I am slowly finding.

I learned this week that I am starting love who I am again, the parts of me others would mock and see as weakness are what in fact make me intrinsically strong......and special at least to a select few

Life is wonderful, I am getting stronger, I breathe, live and love another day!

When one door closes..

*Twirls round the room in happiness scattering rose petals in the air and sending Kisses and hugs to every one*​

EDIT: Do not get your knickers in a twist I WAS NOT referring to Leopald as the Sir.

Knickers! Jesus Christ who wears knickers and what the fuck are they

What took you so long Yeishia, I confess that I was wondering if you were in fact stupid or just totally insane. Shit wrong thread this isn't the I confess one!

Oh well, I have learned this week that Yeishia has a backbone and a brain.

Grats at the good news! Happy I don't have to fly to Canada for your bloody funeral so don't go choking on what ever it is you actually eat

hugs you close

 

[Trixabell]

Congrats on the remission Yeishia!



Its been one hell of a week and I have another one coming right behind it.

After trying to get gas after driving 325 straight miles and getting blocked by 5 cars at the gas station for nearly 15 minutes I have learned that the world is full of morons!
I do however know that I keep the sweetest friends close to my heart and will try my best to not let the idiots get me down!


thanks for letting me vent...

I've learned when you don't give in to the drama, the drama goes away!

I wish I could learn this faster...

 

[Luna_Wolf72]

This week has brought crazy, odd knowledge...

That I am only as strong as my most hidden weakness.

That loving someone and being in love with someone are two different things and should never be confused. That I can love many, many people...but I can only do the in love thing with one person at a time...

That I love the color purple against my skin...*nods*

underwear/panties. Usually for girls. I don't remember hearing guys' undies ever referred to as knickers. It's from an older, less Americanized English.

It's hard to stand by and let someone shit on or near you, but in the long run when they don't get the desired response, it just isn't fun for them anymore.

 

[MsAphrodite]

Thank you Dragon.

I think I should have learned to shut my fucking gobb , Oh and learned to type more correctly to suite the site.

I didn't learn that this week ..shit!

 

[Vail_Indigo]

I learned that sometimes you don't need the broken thing fixed...you don't need the hurt to go away.
You just need it to get the tiniest, littlest bit better

Well said

 

[Veroe]

Today I learned that hard work is seldom noticed or appreciated, but always blamed for not being enough when something goes wrong.

I thank you so much Trixabel both for your well wishes during my illness and for your congratulations on my remission now.

You have no idea how much they meant to me.

Given our past history your words truly humbled me.

I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I have been given a second chance ....again

and I promise you I shall not waste it

 

[yeishia]

I have learned that taking the road less traveled makes for a beautiful and peaceful journey.

That forgiving those who have tried to hurt me has lightened my heart immensely.

That by letting go of false hopes I am becoming whole again.

Best of all I am learning to look forward to my many tomorrows

I've learned that I'm even less tolerant of Drama than I am Stupidity.

Then let the subject of Drama go .......

You help perpetuate it by constantly bringing it up in threads *hugs you*

 

[monique_minx]

I have learned that my friends and loved ones here motivate me to do better IRL than my RL friends and family do!

How messed up is that shit?!

 

[Mephistophelily]

I've learned that the stuff I was doing, that I thought was making such a good impression, didn't mean shit and was simply wasting my time. So fuck it. I'll stop doing it and go back to the same repetitive shit as everyone else.

 

[Light Ice]

I've learned to stop drinking on weekdays. This is a lesson I keep having to learn.

 

[yeishia]

We have such a lot in common Light; no drinking on week days and no training on Sundays lol

 

[Drunken_Angel]

I've learned that you can drink a margarita, two absinthe, a gin martini and a cosmo in an evening and not wake up dead.

 

[Alana_]

Not just for Friday, but any day., I have a lovely family.

 

[fuckmeat]

I've learned that in the midst of the most soul crushing episode of my life, a little silliness can go a very long way. I've learned that if you need support from your friends, it helps to open your mouth and ask for it.

And I've learned that the best way to avoid unwanted male attention when clubbing is to arrive on the arms of two hot gay guys.

That makes me wonder if the reverse would work too.

 

[Dr_James]

I have learned that sometimes even when the day goes completely opposite of how you initially planned you can still have a very good day.
