[Zeddo]

actually no....not never mind Bergundia....who the hell are you to question what I do and then try and come over like st frigging Theresa? Must I now bow at the altar of your great "one time and insignificant good deeds"?
Also, where do you get off questioning what others do, have you ever heard of the word decorum, or is it fashionable to stand tall and shout from the roof tops "HEY LOOK AT ME I DID A GOOD DEED, ALL HAIL ZEDDO"

I guess I'd better shut the hell up. Just one thing Bergundia, NEVER judge others from your lofty presuppositions that you are better than them. It stinks. You have NO idea what I do as a part of who I am or what I did in the past or continue to do, so get the heck off your high horse.

Just take a deep breath...and exhale again....I don't think I have judged anybody here. I just said I hope it is not only talk, as People love talking about how this and that breaks their heart and how bad they feel about something and how moved they are, etc.
i do not need anybody to praise me or say heil to me for something I did. If some people get inspired and start picking up litter or at least not throwing it around i will be more than happy. Accorging to you I think that I am better because I pick up bottles.....
so much anger released here..wow, wow,wow...I hope now you are feeling much better....

Doesn't one pebble sometimes start an avalanche?

I'm a dreamer and I know this but if Z does this one thing and only this one act his whole life (which I know is not true but for argument's sake)

The lad wakes up and sees the compassion that a stranger had for him maybe...and I mean just maybe he pays it back ten fold someday by opening a shelter for the homeless.

Z's one act starts a chain of events that may touch millions of lives.

And you Burgundia...From your example...Someone seeing someone care to pick litter up as they go along starts an "adopt a highway" program...

No good act is ever wasted or less than another.....love y'all

nice post SG

I never wanted kids for some reason I felt they would not be part of my life. Then 10 years ago from this coming Thurs I had a boy . It was both the best day and the scariest day of my life.

Glad to see him born and he had all his fingers and toes looked like a normal kid . But then my mind wanders and thinks will he grow up to be a normal kid be able to walk speak see or will he be unable to do any of these things.

Then you wonder about all the crazy things you did when you were a kid and if he would get involved in any of them . Well to make a long story short it has been a pure joy to see him grow these last ten years and I would not trade them for anything I have not seen him in roughly a month and will get to see him this coming THURS AND FRI and am looking forward. He is closer to me than his sleeping mother the main reason we are apart.

Loving your kids is a great thing and this may be a touchy thing to reveal but I can let go of him If some thing happens I know that down the line we will be together again in the end. If i leave this life or he does I know we will meet up again . I waited almost 40 years to have a child and can say without a doubt it is the hardest but the best job a parent can ever have and I would not change a thing about it . Mulligan granted

I am a mother of 2 children, I try to bring them up with their children in mind,
one day they will hopefully become aware and loving parents.
If I can be a positive, loving and fullfilling rolemodel for them then my work as a guardian to amber and byron is on the right track.

I agree with this. I have always felt that that is what parenting is. Setting an example.

[Stargazer1965]

I have a question:

Do I have to deprogram my kid everyday after school??

Oh I know you love your teacher but he\she was wrong about these several points......

I just feel I'm going to really confuse her.

Any thoughts???

[mudra]

Stargazer,
So long as education will miss the source of this entire universe which is spirit and soul you will find many of the things that your children are taught will need readjustment ..Teach them about wisdom and teach them who they really are for then they will have a lantern with which to walk through the maze of this world.
This will be your most precious gift to them and this you'll have to do by your own for they won't find it anywhere in those school books.
But somewhere along the line your children might be lucky enough to find people that will teach from heart and soul and then it won't matter much what the content is as these qualities will reach them
and make them feel good .When a human being has his heart open than it reaches another human being 's heart and this is of great value for heart goes hand and glove with soul.

Test everything.
Hold on to the good.
The Apostle Paul

A precious stone does not lose its value
simply because it has been dropped in a cesspool.

I have 5 minutes and then need to get going. However, this is my priority right here.

Dearest Bergundia, I am truly, humbly sorry if I flared up out of hand and hurt you. I was caught at a bad time and the whole situation, not only the boy who is merely a symptom, but the cause which is a very sick society that allows this sh*t to happen. As a result, I read what you had to say when I was truly revved up and not thinking with love (there goes the frigging ego again).

I have said it before and I will say it again (hmmm i seem so have said that before also!!!). I have nothing but love for all of you here, even though I may have a rather strange way of showing it at times.

Now. Onto my time here at avalon. My sub expires on the 20th and I have no intention of renewing it at this time. I have reasons for this but will not share them here. Suffice it to say that I have learned a lot here, met some amazing brothers and sisters and am richer, in all ways, for the experience.

I need to go away in peace and harmony, with love in my heart and a blessing for all on my lips.

Bergundia, once again, my humblest apologies and if I may, a huge Zeddo hug to you.

Peace and Love to All of you

See you Z.....Ramble on Rambler!!!

Zeddo -

I'm appreciative of the wise and humble way you carry yourself on here. Thank you for the good example you are setting for others (myself included).

And thank you for sharing the story of the young boy as well. My heart goes out to all of the children who are suffering.

I am someone who actually prefers children to adults in most cases. I have yet to meet a child I didn't find utterly fascinating. Yet, most adults don't even seem to notice them. It's amazing.

If you want to live in the NOW, spend your time playing with a child.

Okay Zeddo, as you can see I am born and bred in Oz, three children aged 36, 31 and 28 and four grandchildren aged 14, 8, 6 and 1 month.

My adult kids think I am a total nut job because I have been on the path since my 20's, I am 55 now. Separated after 31 years because my husband kept on screaming and yelling saying I was a complete and total unstable person for even wanting to get information off these forums. Well before the internet I was reading info, totally bad vibe, and he had a real bad temper lifelong as well, so I couldnt take it anymore. Because of the separation the adult kids are not talking to me, think I am crazy b.... and all the rest.

All I know is I will be there for them whenever they need me.

And another thing people from totally different countries from us here in Oz have different ways of relating things to us, does not mean they are being rude, we are just so used to the Oz way.

Burgundia is a very good soul and cause I see stuff myself I know she is and I am sure you are too, just try and see that people that have been brought up in a whole different lifestyle to us are just that...different in how they relate but not rude or mean.

Now having said that...............I am really annoyed because I gave away my age now...................
