Anniversary

It's the one year anniversary

of Land of the Goddess!!

This is a great opportunity for you guys

to all have a good laugh on me.

I had never blogged before...

nor did I know what a blog was.

So, I thought it was like a little journal,

but what I didn't know was that

there was a whole world of bloggers

out there that could come to my space.

Well, you can imagine my suprise the

first time someone I didn't know

left me a comment.

(Yeah, you're laughing now.)

Well, my first couple of dialogues didn't

go well at all. As a matter of fact,

one of them ended up getting pretty ugly.

Then enter Wayward Bill, my very first real

msn friend. From there the whole world

opened up and I've been lucky

to meet some really amazing people.

Today, I celebrate you all and all the joy

and laughs we've shared!

To celebrate, I want to repost some favorites!!

First, my all time favorite...

The heart can be a fickle child. It can throw a tantrum over something it ceases to want within mere moments of recieving it. It can be severely hurt by such simplicities as another person following thier own heart. Are we truly being served by sayings such as "follow your heart" or are they merely another way we have allowed ourselves to be misguided? I say do not follow your heart for it is merely one of the pieces of the organism that moves us through life. On it's own, it can only guide us through highs and lows. But use it with conscience and logic and it can help move us to completely new levels of joy. The heart is a child, a part of this family we call ourselves. Do not allow it to become spoiled and rotten knowing no responsibility. Teach it morality and compassion. Teach it cooperation. Teach it compromise. Teach it to be a part of something in which it is not the center nor the ruler. It is far better to be as the parent comforting that child than as the child with no one left to listen.

That was better than anything I could come up with myself.

I believe this one's a favorite for a few of you...

God makes some people

blind to our beauty

so they won't waste our time.

And one just for fun...

Women are easy.

It's men that are difficult.

Ever try to train one?

	Denniswrote: @ SIMON - Please don't hate this jerk for topping your comment. But I don't have the ability to position my comment anywhere else ;) @ SHANNON - Happy Anniversary. I concur with Simon that your posts reach a lot of souls and offers great comfort. I know because I come here often to rest my currently weary heart. Your first re-post strikes an all too familiar chord with me. You and I share things in common and harmony. And I look forward to sharing more. Your visits and comments on my space are always a boost in my day. You have humbled me by placing me in your list of "blogs you love to visit." And your description made me smile. Thank you. EZ P.S. You are playing my favorite tune from the Black Eye Peas! May 16
	Simonwrote: See, I knew if I waited long enough, I'd get the coveted "top of list" spot. Mind you, watch some jerk come along and take it from me. :D LOL (apologies in advance to said jerk. :P) Anyway, you've been around a year, but I've known this place for only about half this time. However, I must said I recognized the beauty and wisdom behind it very early on. Your inspirations help comfort and inform many a restless soul, and your wit is a salve for tormented hearts. I love reading your posts, and I look forward to long, faithful observance of the tradition. :) ...and to teasing you and giving you a rought time of course. :P Toodles. May 16

	Bekke wrote: Maybe the 3rd time is a charm. We'll see. Been trying to get to this litle box 3 times now. LOL! Hey! Thanks for the Mother's Day wishes. Hope you had a good one yourself. Got Frankie's voice mail. That was so sweet. Was going to call back but my battery crapped out at the end of it and it was too late at 3:00 AM to call her back after I got off work, don't you know. Hmmm....maybe I should have to give her a reason to wake you up and keep you up, huh? Joking. Anyway, do me a favor and give her a big hug, kiss and thank you from Nana when she gets home from school today! May 15
