Brisen2011-04-04 19:48:36Well,
 
What a wonderful life I've had. I've seen things and done things that most can only imagine.
 
I look at everything as a new adventure or a new chapter to my book of life. I don't get upset when the chapter is not what I want it to be.
 
I love someone that just absolutely adores and loves me. How rich is that? She thinks I hung the moon and stars. This is her song for me. She is the love of my life. I've known her for 33 years, from the time she was 19. We still dance to this song.
 
 
I have such a wonderful family circle. We love and appreciate each other. My brother and sister have wonderful spouses that are not just good to, but for  them and I love my sil and bil for that and for the good people that they are.
 
I have many nieces and nephews and we get together quite often. Hot dogs and burgers and marshmallows bring us together and bring out the happiness.
 
I was diagnosed with RA about 4-5 years ago altho it seems like yesterday. My doctors were always amazed at my good attitude. I just looked at it as a new adventure and still do.
 
I am kinda jealous of young people. Oh how I remember those stupid days and doing stupid young people stuff. Hard to believe that I lived through all of it but still smile when I look at young people being stupid young people. Afterall, my life is, well, getting towards the end. And, oh how I love this life.
 
Well, I guess I'm rambling and probably boring everyone.
 
I dislike haters and instigators. I know that somewhat, they are what they are by no fault of their own. But, it seems like after being told a few times to cleanse their souls, maybe they would at least consider it. I try not to hate. Some probably think that I do hate a lot of people but I really don't. I enjoy even them sometimes. After all, they are characters in my book, in this chapter.
 
Here, at this forum I have met some of the most wonderful people. I used to think that RA was maybe a curse but now know that it can't be. To so many of you, I would just love to give a hug. Yous have been so supportive of not just my disease but also of me and I thank yous so much. What a wonderful family you are to me.
 
Well, I've dragged this out so let me just post some of my favorite songs that I like to listen to. You are welcome to listen to them or pass on them. To so very many of you, thank you so very much. Anyway, before I get teary, here are my songs.
 
No Surprise - Daughtery
 
Heartbreak Warfare - John Mayer /w Lyrics
 
Half of my heart - John Mayer
 
Do you love me - Guster
 
Dog days are over - Florence and the machine
