I’ve been using the “justice for all” for the lions in Africa. Since I knew about a pride of lions who were poisoned for their body parts. I felt so bad. I love lions and felines so much… since ever honestly, but more now that I use my Lion tag.

I too like the felines the most out of all the creatures on this planet. Too bad they always want to eat my moldavite.

When I was a child I also had adult friends who were much older than me. (Post-retirement age) They had the time…to give u time. At home 5 active people, was always too busy. Besides I was…weird…way too sensitive. My parents always told me that, that I was “too sensitive”, that was “my problem”. So my father decided he would “train it out of me” and make me tough, tough so I could survive.

I don’t think it’s that much of a mystery though.
They need to love each others, by that I mean filling each other’s romantic (and reproductive needs for the breeders). But they need to be clear about what they’re looking for, not just going in a relationship to feel a vague “happyness”. They should have an individual life, direction, satisfaction going in… not just empty shells that needs to be completed, nor a "repair’ project for the other partner.
For that they need to be mature enough on an individual level before adding a couple level on top of it, then it will be a stable, enjoyable, easy relationship. Something natural that unfolds. Most of the work will be about logistics and organization, but both partner will be on board with clear, manageable expectations.
It’s important that they are clear about what’s a couple issue and what’s a personal issue. Most couple have personal issues popping up at the couple level. A couple is like a platform for the two partners if that makes sense.
For unconditional love, it’s a personal work, some will go through it, others won’t.

Sounds lovely!
I do wonder if Cumbria has its own rose though. Would you say there’s a Cumbrian identity as such?
All the cumbrians I’ve met have been so nonchalant about their cumbrianness.
As opposed to their yorkshire/lancastrian counterparts who will boisterously make it known where they’re from.

Defo. Seeing Jorvik on your trike brought back memories of all the times I’ve been in York. Been there 5 times now already. And there’s just something about that city that keeps calling me again and again.

Happy belated! 
Won’t comment much, since I adhere to what’s been said. But just to add a self-reflective element: an ex had popped up 2 or 3 years ago with some blabla. I sent him a voice mail saying that I had to do some laundry and pressed the “wash” button at the same time lol.
I like symbols. So much for tonight’s self-reflection…

I wasn’t feeling 100 percent, but I enjoyed the weekend break. I marathoned some Netflix while taking the time to brush some of my shoes and boots. It’s been a while since I’ve shined or conditioned any of them, but one of these days I will find the time to properly tackle the task. There’s something therapeutic about it, it almost feel zen-like.
I should find more time to do things like this, entirely personal, free from thoughts of what’s going on outside, and thoughts about work!
As luck would have it, I found a good Korean movie. It’s a sort of comedy, the premise was serious yet they made it light hearted. I’m not a prude, but I like a good story without the over gratuitous stuff I usually find these days. Just plain good acting, cinematography and story-telling.
Most of all, I like good endings. Perfect.

Now suede on the other hand… I don’t find working on that as much fun…

It’s pretty funny how we craft our stories of reality then constantly judge everything including ourselves based on it.

Huh funny I was just thinking about this this morning, and about how since people in my life seem to be living in a completely different reality Vs me.

Great minds think alike
Lol, I thought no wonder we are messed up and stressed out if we make stories, judge, make more stories judge even more. If that judgment keeps accumulating and never shuts up… after a few years of judging every little thing, of course people are going crazy. How could you not feel bad after labeling everything « good or bad » ?
