Some have come to believe I am human But they do not know what lies within Lost inside the depths of my soul Such an unabashed miscalculation in opinion Darkness becomes her Tis a fool hearted mistake An ingenious form of torment To misconstrue what you refuse to see My looks are deceiving A little opaque and even misleading I become rather distraught At your ogles of disbelief As hope becomes a new shade of fear I am aware that I am not exclusive Voices scream and laugh Muffled in the dark of night As sanctity becomes psychosis While it’s difficult to authenticate Through the polluted syllables Of repetitious melancholy It is truth and not fabrication I have encountered many from beyond your realm Huddled quietly in the shadows Who time and again bring attention To the numerous gothic-looking patriarchs So many of you fail to see You would be apt to believe it’s just sacrosanct But I must inform you of the inexactness And the sorrow that pours from reddened eyes I am divergent of a Druid But slightly more than Pagan You will not find me manipulating straw Around a sacrilegious pig I often suggest inklings Supplied by a wicked accidental glance Composed of screams and cries of hatred You can visualize it as I play You can interpret it as I dance I like to explore the obsidian oleo of night As life fades to death I find pleasure in its inhabitants Who chase me through gardens of jagged thorns As another part of me dies Like the deadly synchronization of bittersweet poetry But what you have failed to see Is the beauty in me That death cannot erase

Avoid the Greener Grass Syndrome: Water Your Own Marriage.

If your marriage is less than blissful, and you feel like giving up, I can tell you from personal experience; marriages can be raised from the dead. My husband, Ron, and I had one of the worst marriages I’ve ever seen….but now…we really love each other… even like each other. You can too. Are you willing to begin anew?

You’re probably thinking, Why should I be the first to change? or How come I have to do all the work? The answer is simple: God will work with whoever is available and give that person the strength to change. Are you available?

You already know that you can’t change your mate, but you can change your own behavior. The word change indicates a transformation, which is a metamorphosis; the word metamorphosis begins with the two letters me. Change begins with me.

I Can’t Get No Satisfaction

If either you or your spouse constantly hums the Rolling Stones’ tune, “I Can’t Get No Satisfaction,” you might be in trouble. If you ignore each other’s needs, one or both of you will be more tempted to “go” elsewhere. But having unmet needs is no excuse for bad behavior and going after satisfaction outside your marriage is always wrong. The best way to avoid the “Greener Grass Syndrome” is to water your own lawn.

If our marriages are well-watered, the grass on our own side of the fence will be lush and soft and lovely. And if you’re both content and committed to your marriage, the Flirty Franks and Teasing Tinas at the office, gym, or grocery store won’t be as tempting.

Maybe you’re saying, “But, Nancy, you don’t know how selfish my husband/wife is. You’re right, I don’t know your situation, but I’m assuming that you chose to marry that person, so they must have some wonderful qualities too. Unless your spouse is abusing you or your children, you can choose to be satisfied in your marriage. Look for the best in your mate, not at his or her faults. The more you meet your spouse’s needs, the more he or she will want to meet yours. It doesn’t matter who plants the first seeds, because you’ll enjoy the harvesttogether. It might be hard to start, but if you don’t, and your mate won’t, then who will?

Paying Attention?

My husband, Ron, recently had a conversation with his friend Earl. Earl said, “For years, my feet have been killing me. I bought insole cushions for my shoes and even bought an expensive pair of arch supports, but nothing helped. So I finally went to a podiatrist.

“What did he say?” Ron asked.

Earl said, “First, he X-rayed my feet and looked at the films. Then the doctor asked me, ‘What size shoe do you wear?’ I answered, ‘Eleven.’ Then the he said, ‘No wonder your feet hurt, you should wear a size thirteen!’”
Earl shook his head as he told Ron, “I’ve been buying size eleven shoes since high school. It never occurred to me to measure my feet to see if they’d grown.”

His shoes had been too small for years! His feet had changed, but he wasn’t paying attention.

Have you measured your marriage lately?

It’s easy to get complacent and just continue doing what we’ve always done. Since nothing ever stays the same, small changes can sneak up on us and cause some big problems.

Growing Pains

If you’re struggling in your relationship and feel like you’ve grown apart from your spouse, today can be the day of new beginnings. I know how lonely, discouraged, and exhausted you may feel, because I’ve felt that way.

I was in a marriage full of emptiness.

I was the original desperate housewife, when 24 years ago, I had an affair and moved out of our house. Ron and I were both selfish, angry, and critical; but we aren’t anymore. Well . . . I’m still a little selfish, but mostly our lives are full of light and loveand yours can be too. We admitted our faults, asked for forgiveness, changed our behavior and decided to love each other. Our feelings eventually caught up with our actions and we slowly grew a lovely “green grass” marriage in own backyard.

Ron and I still don’t agree on all issues, but since we’ve reached a compromise on most of the major ones; the minor oneslike where to set the thermostat or which one of us is a better driver (me) won’t break us. We’ve learned to work together as a team, and that is our prayer for you.

“A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer.” Ecclesiastes 4:12a

Anyone who has planned a wedding, whether for themselves or a friend or family member, can tell you how complicated, and how expensive the wedding planning process can be.

One expense that is often overlooked in the rush for the perfect dresses, the perfect reception hall and perfect food is the choice of wedding favors.

==Wedding Favors One Of The Most Memorable Aspects For Your Guest==

However, the wedding favors are actually one of the most memorable aspects of the wedding for your guests. The favors you present to your guests will be remembered and cherished long after the wedding day has come and gone, so it is important to choose them with care.

In recent years, calla lily wedding favors have become increasingly popular, and this popular flower has formed the centerpiece of many wonderful wedding favors. No matter what type of wedding favors you choose, however, it is important to start shopping around early.

==Bundle The Calla Lily Wedding Favors With Your Wedding Flowers To Get The Best Deal==

If you do decide to choose some type of flower, such as the calla lily, as your wedding favor, you may do well to check with the florist who is handling your wedding flowers. It may be less expensive to bundle the purchase of the calla lily wedding favors in with the order for the wedding flowers. In addition, you already know you can trust your wedding florist, and you already have a good sense of the quality of flowers they provide.

For all these reasons, you may well want to consider ordering the flower based wedding favor from the same florist who is doing your regular wedding favors.

==Shop Around And Shop Early==

No matter what type of wedding favors you choose, whether they incorporate fresh flowers or not, it is important to shop around carefully, and to shop early.

As you already know, shopping early is important to all aspects of planning a successful wedding, since everything has to come together on a single, very important day. So be sure to shop around for your favorite wedding favors, ones that best reflect your personal style and that of your future spouse.

Mixed love is a fantastic example of how true love conquers all
as it breaks the bonds and rises above discrimination,
alienation, and disapproval. Now more than ever before, the 21st
century is seeing interracial couples date, live together and
marry. With each passing decade, the unspoken mixed love taboos
of the past are being placed in history books and buried with
the older generations.

There is no reason why anyone should have to limit themselves to
only experience dating with their own ethnic group, when so many
other fantastic romances and rewarding relationships await them
through international dating.

You may be wondering how if you are a black, white, Eurasian,
etc. you could become connected and date others from different
culture backgrounds, especially if you haven’t the first idea
how you would approach someone else without feeling strange or
awkward in person. The answer is to get connected with an online
dating service that works to get you in touch with different
people, who are interested in seeking relationships with someone
just like you.

For instance, Love Empire is an online dating community that
allows you to set up a profile and search for others who have
similar interests as you. Of course not everyone you meet is
going to interest you, or you them, but at least with an online
dating community, you can search for potential dates on your own
terms, without having to worry about the interference of anyone
else. This provides you with an exceptional chance of
experiencing mixed love romances that may be just what you were
looking for.

Regardless of your cultural background, black, white, Eurasian,
etc., there are many online dating mixed love success stories at
Love Empire, so there is no reason why you can’t be another
success story if you play it smart, are honest with your
feelings, and enjoy the company of your date.

Of course, like anyone you meet, there is always risk involved,
and there will always be someone who does not approve of your
relationship, especially if you are dating someone from a
different ethnic background. However, as long as you take your
dating slow, and discover how much you truly care for the
person, there is no reason why you can’t rise above any
challenge that presents itself.

Without question, mixed love relationships have a certain
special spark that can be captured by no other cultural pairing.
And it is not because multicultural relationships are rebellious
or made to prove a point as they sometimes were in the 1960’s,
or are considered the latest fad as some where in the 1980’s; on
the contrary, interracial relationships today are a sign of a
new age that shows you don’t need to be of a certain colour or
gender to find love, you just need to meet the right person.

My daughter and fiancé have finally set the “big day” but now
comes the fun part of helping her plan her wedding.

Now don’t get me wrong, I’m really looking forward to helping
my daughter but stress can do crazy things to a woman. This
could be a really fun experience if you look at the right way.
I’ll just sit back and do what I’m told when I’m told.

In fact stress turns her into somewhat of a control freak. And
controllers can’t give up control of any aspect of their lives.
They must always be in control, so the title “control freak” is
rightfully earned.

Now helping a control freak plan a wedding, can you imagine,
after all everything is going to have to be perfectly
controlled. Anything gone wrong is liable to land in quite a
burst of verbal displeasure.

Now as the helper you have some choices. You can either step
back and find the situation quite amusing and thus keep your
sanity. Or you can get drug into the chaos and panic and loose
your sanity. I’m opting for the amusing approach.

Watching a control freak plan their wedding is rather like
watching a juggler with about 12 extra balls. Your just waiting
for one to drop! And eventually one will and all you can do is
be their to pick up the pieces.

It all began with choosing the “perfect date.” Now a sane
person would wonder what does a perfect date look like, but a
control freak spends hours going through each month and each
date listing the pros and cons until they are satisfied they
have found the perfect date.

God help us all if the weather decides to not co-operate. But
that’s okay after a few stressful day my control freak daughter
has decided that August 16th 2006 will be a perfect day.

To the sane person it will be a perfect day no matter what goes
wrong, but to my control freak daughter all I can hope is that
the day is truly perfect in every way!

Well our next mission was the gown and if you have never
shopped with a control freak you will not understand how amusing
this can be. At least from the view point I’ve chosen to take.

Grant it some moments are enough to make your hair stand up and
shout “Stop you’re driving me crazy.” A couple of deep breaths
and the amusement returns.

A normal soul will know that there is no such thing as the
perfect wedding dress or the perfectly fitted wedding dress
right off the rack. Yes a wedding dress can become perfect but
it may take some alterations.

Shopping for that wedding gown with a control freak leads to
comments such as the sleeves are too puffy, the train slides
just a little to the right, the v neck is ” from perfect, the
…..Well you get the picture. They are looking for perfect by
definition in their brain.

Many of the gowns my daughter tried on were perfect as far as I
could tell. She looked beautiful, breathtaking, and sexy all the
things a bride should be. But to her it was not “perfect.”

As luck would have it one bridal show as she shifted through
the gowns this beautiful dress jumped out at her. When she tried
it on it fit her perfectly and not only by my definition but by
her own.

Not an alteration needed, not a tuck, not a hem. It was infact
perfect. So you see even the control freak can find a perfect
gown.

Our last adventure was in locating the perfect place for a
reception. My control freak daughter has yet to find the place
that makes her feel safe and in control.

Thankfully she still has time and as luck goes I’m certain we
will find that perfect place. I’m sure they’ll be plenty more
highlights before she has her wedding planned.

The message here is not to make fun or chastise the control
freak, after all we all have our faults, but rather to point out
that no matter how stressed you become while planning your
wedding it will all come together. Besides I believe every
future bride turns into a bit of a control freak when planning
her wedding.

So control freak are not you don’t have to settle for anything
less than your definition of perfect and with some shopping
you’ll be able to find it for a price within your budget.

Just remember that your wedding will be “perfect” just because
it is your special day!
