LOL No. I HAVE sat in a cinema (have no idea what the flm was about)..twas my first boyfriend, and he bought me abox of maltesers which I was trying desperately to eat without crunching them and disturbing everyone about me. I was not adept at social graces, felt very uncomfortable, thus couldn't enjoy the film!. Thought I'd better eat the maltesers in case he wa offended. Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.
WHY is life so difficult and embarassing?

HYE wondered why life is so difficult and embarassing, or can be?

davedajobauk · Feb 21, 2009

Because ..... we have a view of ourselves [as we percieve ourselves to be]
and yet also see another view also...
ie: our perceived impression of what other-folks see in us
This can flummox us... when we attach importance to how we want others to see us
The 'embarrassment' comes; when, we have, or suspect we have
'let ourselves-down' in sight of others

Indeed, if we COULD [all] just be ourselves
what ? would we want to hide ?
We have all made mistakes, disappointed ourselves [and others]
shame, comes of, realizing, that we could, and should, have done, much-better
Here, if, and when... we have performed at our very best
then, surely, there is no way we could have been any-better ?
[for, WHAT, can be better than our BEST ?]

It is in the heart that the spirit can reign
in the mind that peace can reside
and in fellowship that family can grow

HYE... wanted to live alone [by yourself] because: company was 'stressing you'

Worddancer · Feb 21, 2009

Most definitely, yes! Although I have a feeling I wouldn't like it for very long. I'm pretty independent and quite handy with most things (except plumbing and electricity, lol), and think I could manage pretty well on my own, but hope I don't have prove it anytime soon. I guess whatever stress there may be with living with someone is nothing compared to having to do everything yourself. (I realize there are situations where a living arrangement can become horribly stressful . . as was mine in my first marriage . . and escaping abuse is the best choice)

HYE . . . owned an unusual pet? (such as a ferret or hedgehog or boa constrictor?)

gratefulgrace · Feb 22, 2009

Not too unusual just a hampster.
HYE slept over 15 hours straight?

davedajobauk · Feb 23, 2009

Not, that I can recall....
although I would have [have] spent many days unable to get up [out and about]
were it not for a couple of son's making regular check up visits
I wouldnt have been able to prepare food and drinks, for myself

When we need Him he will be there... PTL

HYE... arrived, at a very... 'appropriate/convenient' moment, in someone-elses life ?

Oh my goodness - you hit the nail right on the head there brother Dave. We are considering "disappearing" - life is just tooo stressful for us right now.

Yes - but I can't say more than that about it.

HYE wanted to try your hand at a self sufficient life style?

tansy · Feb 24, 2009

Never been in a position to try...anyhow I suspect it would be very hard work

HYE been pot-holing?

davedajobauk · Feb 25, 2009

not really....
I did enter a small cave that proceeded to reduce into such... once
but I wasnt suitably dressed and nobody knew where I was
and THAT is a PRIME SAFETY CONSIDERATION
ALWAYS... let people know where you are going...
to give them KNOWLEDGE of... 'where to look' when they MISS YOU

HYE... been caving / pot-holing

tansy · Feb 25, 2009

No...well I've been in Wookey Hole and the Bock Casemates in Luxembourg, but that hardly counts.

HYE ever been rock-climbing?

Worcester Beacon · Feb 25, 2009

Yes when I was much younger.

Have you ever absailed?

No way I have a fear of heights...I feel like I'm being drawn over the dge of high places, and I get incredibly shaky.

HYE been up to the top of a skyscraper?

davedajobauk · Feb 25, 2009

nah.......my former mother-in-law lived on the top floor
of a block of apartments [flats]
and on a visit during some stormy weather
I was aware of the tower swaying...
and hurried my then wife into a swift departure

Coincidentally the block was demolished within a year
for reason:
the local authorities had discovered 'concrete-cancer' within the structure

HYE been to the top of a skyscraper _and, were you 'relaxed' up-there ?

tansy · Feb 26, 2009

No, never have..I feel trapped if I'm in abuilding too high up...I like to be able to walk more or less straight out. I hate where we're living now, it's a first floor, very poky flat and I can't just walk straight outside (no garden either) Moan, groan. moan LOL

HYE eaten humble pie?

nhisname · Feb 27, 2009

Nope.

HYE: read a whole book at one sittting?

leytonstones · Feb 27, 2009

Oh how I would love to sit and read uninterrupted! Sadly no.
