on the subject of love and relationships. I have been in a very short lived, very unsuccesful, very unhappy and traumatic marriage and by the fact that I am currently single it means too that I have not been in any succesful relationship.
I have been in many relationships/affairs/whatever you want to call it and it is only after 44 years of living on this earth that I finally, after living in crisis do I fully appreciate and understand the importance of the following 'stars of alignment'.
1) Love
2) Respect
3) Like
4) Trust
I was trained as a mathematician but I am not even sure how to calculate the odds of finding someone who you are in love with, respect as a person, like as a friend and trust..... and worse of all to happen to find that person who feels the exact same way about you in all those four aspects....to have all four of those 'stars aligned' may happen ONCE in your lifetime NEVER to be found again.... Do not take those odds for granted.
Do not do like I have done. Be prepared to bend over backwards, change, compromise, do all it takes. Do not let stubborness and ego and pride get in your way. It may never come into your life again.
If you have that special situation in your life......keep it and treasure it always.
hopefully I have learnt from my mistakes and can correct them, hopefully others will not make those same mistake.

Gee,I think you got it! I've read all of your blogs and agree with all that you have said but I think you probable already know that. I'm new to this blogging thing and much prefer to e mail you. By now you should know it's me Gloria. Why haven't you kept up your blog?
I agree, and if it comes back we should hold on to it and never, ever let it go.
