Feeling Blue....

Seems that these days I’m just not myself. Not exactly sure if I even know what has caused me this mood. Sure....simple answer is life...but the question is “What IN life?” I know I can’t blame health cause for the most part it’s ok. Then there is wealth...Well there too I can say, for the moment “No way”.

Next there is family....well, who has the perfect one? They always come with their ups and downs….HAHAHA! With the kids all grown, it seems they come with their problems TO YOU. Which again for the most part is great, cause since we all were young once we know what life has in store. If it’s not this...then it’s that. And so it goes...Blah..blah...blah and again and again!

Next you have friends....who too come with their own set of fun. First on the list, is the spouse of course..to be followed by the kids...then next in line is the job...Oh life is ever so fine.

It seems I have the perfect ear....they come from far, they come from near....I say to myself “Oh dear.” I listen. I give my advise...or sometimes I just say nothing at all which can also be wise.

As for me, I seldom share....cause I also know the answer lies deep inside me somewhere. It seems people can’t make you happy, so I’ve been told. So therefore one can say that complaining becomes weary and old.

Running away, won’t solve my “Blues”...
I need to stay in these old shoes...
But I know that some where out yonder...
My life will be a bit more fonder...

I need to find me…..!

The Art of Seduction


The contact.... seduction!
First and foremost, it's very important that you choose the right person to seduce. This is more a matter of instinct than anything else, but most of us at will attempt to make conversation, or at least some eye contact, with a potential partner whom we consider to be about as attractive as we feel we are. So, if you are not happy with the way you look and moreover who you are on the inside, then start there!The thrill of seduction sometimes lies in the chase rather than the conquest.

The excitement of wanting and pursuing someone can give a sense of satisfaction in itself - this is especially true for men. But those who thoroughly enjoy the chase are generally people with plenty of self-confidence and their belief in themselves increases the likelihood of success. This however should not stop even the bashful or shy ones.

First suggestion would be to plan and set up the time and the right place knowing you will be alone for some period of time. If the object of your passion is somebody you see on a regular basis, the time and the place being wrong may also very well add to the thrill. If you're getting the right feedback from him/her (flirting), the knowledge that that he/she is interested but that you can't do anything about it just yet can increase the feelings of arousal and excitement. Let them linger ...

Now - just how do you know that they are interested? Your best clues come from reading their body language. His/her body signals are far better indicators of how he/she feels about you than anything they may actually say verbally. The eyes are the biggest give-away when it comes to seduction of either sex. If he/she returns your gaze, and especially if he/she holds eye contact with you longer than you'd normally expect, then chances are they are quite interested. Trust your instincts and you'll 'feel' whether they are interested or not. Look for small gestures and tone of voice tell you a lot about what they may feels towards you.

Flirt. Flirt. Flirt. Important - We flirt with others to remind our partner that we still need to be wooed by him, but when used for seduction, it's a means of keeping the other person interested and aroused, as well as letting them know that they are unlikely to be rejected. Men, who are generally the pursuers, are highly dependent on your signals to reassure them that they are 'onto something' good. And ladies, playing hard-to-get isn't particularly attractive to men unless you're sending out enough signals to assure him that you are 'gettable' and that the chase will be worth it in the end. Just beware that you may chase him away.Once you've made it known that you are attracted to them, you'll need to let him/her know where the encounter is likely to be heading.

People have very different ideas of what sex should be, so it's important that you both know that you're looking for the same things and headed in the same direction. The subtle approach is more likely to get you what you want. Remember, though, men generally take the lead in this area, even asking questions and trying to determine whether you'd make a satisfactory sex partner. Follow his lead.

The questions probably won't be that direct (depending upon the man), but they will be based around 'self-disclosure'. He tells you some, you tell him some and this creates trust. Try discussing sex in a light-hearted, abstract manner when talking with a potential lover, testing each other in a non-committal way.

Two people, who may have been attracted to each other visually, may not have the right chemistry to move along the road of seduction. Once you’ve talked a little about it, does he still seem interested? Look for signs of acceptance or rejection (remember rejection could depend on many many things - perhaps you’re just too much woman for him). If you pick up on any signs of rejection, don't waste your time on something that is very unlikely to happen, no matter how much you think you fancy him/her.

The right person is out there just waiting to be seduced by you!Surrender - If you're still doing fine and the signals are good, it's time to make your move. One of you must surrender. In all probability it will be you, because even if you initiated the seduction, they will probably have taken over the role of pursuer somewhere along the line. The roles of 'hunter' and 'prey' have been decided through thousands of years of evolution, and usually fall naturally into place.

Seduce, surrender and enjoy!

How many of you have tried this approach? Or is here another way that helps one to seduce that special some one? Please share if you know the secret to success.

Story of the Day....can you relate????

GOD CREATED CHILDREN (AND IN THE PROCESS GRANDCHILDREN)

To those of us who have children in our lives, whether they are our own, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, or students...here is something to make you chuckle. Whenever your children are out of control, you can take comfort from the thought that even God's omnipotence did not extend to His own children. After creating heaven and earth, God created Adam and Eve. And the first thing he said was "DON'T!"

Adam replied: "Don't what?"

God said: "Don't eat the forbidden fruit."

Adam said: "Forbidden fruit? We have forbidden fruit? Hey Eve... we have forbidden fruit!!!!!"

Eve said: "No Way!"

Adam said: "Yes way!"

God said: "Do NOT eat the fruit!"

Adam and Eve asked: "Why"

God replied: "Because I am your Father and I said so!" (Wondering why He hadn't stopped creation after making the elephants. A few minutes later, God saw His children having an apple break and He was angry!)

God asked: "Didn't I tell you not to eat the fruit?" .

Adam replied: "Uh huh,"

Father then said: "Then why did you?"

Eve answered: "I don't know,"

Adam said: "She started it!"

Eve: "Did not!"

Adam: "Did too!"

Eve: "DID NOT!"


Having had it with the two of them, God's punishment was that Adam and Eve should have children of their own. Thus the pattern was set and it has never changed.

BUT THERE IS REASSURANCE IN THE STORY!

If you have persistently and lovingly tried to give children wisdom and they haven't taken it, don't be hard on yourself. If God had trouble raising children, what makes you think it would be a piece of cake for you?

THINGS TO THINK ABOUT!

1. You spend the first two years of their life teaching them to walk and talk. Then you spend the next sixteen telling them to sit down and shut up.

2. Grandchildren are God's reward for not killing your own children.

3. Mothers of teens now know why some animals eat their young.

4. Children seldom misquote you. In fact, they usually repeat word for word what you shouldn't have said.

5. The main purpose of holding children's parties is to remind yourself that there are children more awful than your own.

6. We childproofed our homes, but they are still getting in.


ADVICE FOR THE DAY: Be nice to your kids. They will choose your nursing home one day.

AND FINALLY:

IF YOU HAVE A LOT OF TENSION AND YOU GET A HEADACHE, DO WHAT IT SAYS ON THE ASPIRIN BOTTLE:

"TAKE TWO ASPIRIN" AND "KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN"!!!!!


This had been sent to me by a good friend and thought it too cute and true to not pass it on. Hope you all get a chuckle out of it too.


"Kids and grand-baby.... Can't help but love them!"

Gentlemen Prefer.....?

I have often wondered what goes through a man’s mind when looking at other women. What is it that they first notice? Their face…their hair….or maybe their contagious smile? Or is it just plain and simply, their body…mostly the breasts? Small, medium or large…or one even better, implants? And why the fascination there? An old saying…”More than a mouthful is too much.” True or False?

What is sexy? What a woman wears? How she might walk in those very uncomfortable high heels? Or is it perhaps that “Dumb Blonde” act? (not meaning to offend any readers here.)

I had looked up a few different pictures. Some from a time no longer here and a shame that times have changed so much.

As the saying goes “You’ve come a long way, Baby!”… is very True. So gentlemen….how do you see it? Is one only good for instant entertainment? That quickie in the car or maybe a cheap motel? Wild flings with no commitment? Will you take home your “Barbie” doll to meet Mother? Or will she have to look more like this?
The Perfect One
