Dawg's blog: "Why do you love?"

I have lost a very dear freind on here, WHy? That is tough question. I have talked with her and tried to get her to see that life can get better, I did all that I could think of get her to look at the future and what it could be. I let her know how much she meant to so many people. In the end, I was not enough help, she has deleted her page and tried to kill herself. I am not sure if she suceeded or not, the police will not tell me because I am not a relative. The length of time it took to get things moving does not leave much hope. I know that she will hate me for having called them even if she does survive, so I have lost her either way. I just hope that she IS safe and that they will help her where I could not! I do not write this to hear how I did what I could, rather I write it in hopes that all that read it will take a moment to think of all that the person you are talking to may have endured or be going through! Please for the sake of all, be kind to one another, it hurts to lose freind!

What is it in human nature that makes people take things for granted, I am not talking about things like taking for granted that it will rain tonight. I am talking about things like taking for granted they will be alive tomorow, here is the really weird thing; it seems like the more important some thing is and the more familiar that they are with it the easier it is for them to take it for granted. Take breathing for instance, everybody seems to take it for granted until they can not do it. Think about this, if you take something that important for granted, how are you treating the people in your life? Do they know how much you care for them? Have you told them? What if they were not there? Make an attempt at letting everybody that is important to you know, if they are surprised it will tell you how much you have ignored them. I appreciate all my freinds and the time they dedicate out of their busy schedule to talk and be with me, and appreciate them even more when I can not find time to get in touch with them (and miss them) So please let us all make an effort and remember everybody that is important to you and let them know. Thank You, Billy Joe

am sitting here and look at my screen noticing that all of my friends are in different time zones than I am or wake later than I. Did you ever have one of those times where you just wanted somebody to talk to, nothing really to say; just the thought that they would waste thier time to be there and talk.Well, this would qualify. I am thinking of a couple of friends that I had on here that are gone. One was a really sweet lady from Texas named Kara, (married with children, lest anybody get the wrong idea) who one day when I singed on she was just gone, vanished, no going to the group, no profile; I miss my Kara. The other was a young model that I got along with quite well,(young, attractive,single--you can get the wrong idea if you want but you would only be flattering me and would still be wrong) who had to leave myspace because somebody was stalking her. Do not get me wrong, if I out there( where she lives) you couldn't pry me off of her with a spatula, but to stalk somebody. Get help, you freak. The rest of my freinds have busy lives and so do I, so I do not get to contact them as much as I would like to. I know that if I was to call on any of them, they would answer and sacrifice some sleep for me; but being a friend I will not call,but I want you all to know: I miss you. So here I sit, early morning browsing around looking for something to do, have fed the horses and chickens, made the coffee, read my E-mail, and now written a rambling blog that makes no sense to anybody but me. Quess I should crawl back under my rock until the rest of the world arises for the promise of a new day. To all who read this: Remember and appreciate your friends, they may not always be there with, but they are always there for you; or they are not really friends.

blogs The thinking, the worry, the time: all spent in a desperate effort that will bare little fruit if any.The minutes ticking by as I pour my heart and soul out onto the screen,typing, reading, deleting,pondering, and typing again, all in an effort to get the wording just right to let the world know exactly how you feel. Trying to put into words the feelings, thoughts really; how do you take something as intangible as a thought and make it into a word, a sentence, a paragraph? What a daunting task, what an impossibility,yet millions of people do it everyday.All this effort, this work, for what? Few will ever know of its existence, fewer still will care. Yet so much work goes into it. Why would we waste so much time and energy to inform those that do not care, of things they do not care about? Of course reasons vary from subject to subject, for this one it is just so that people will know that when I read their blog, I know and appreciate all that they put into it, just to let me know a little about them and their thoughts. For this I thank you all, small reward for what you have put yourself through, but it is all I have to give in return.

Have been having conversations recently with a few people about why do we love someone. I asked them "Why do you love your partner?" and I get answers like "He is kind to my dog." This is an attribute of that person that you might love, but that is not why you love them. I for one do not know the answer to the question I pose. What makes us love a preson? The attributes of a person may be loved, but if another has the same ones, why would you not love them? No it is an enigma that I have not been able to unravel. I ask all for their thoughts and opinions.
