Its hard, I wear my emotions on my sleeve. cry at a sappy movie. So things like that are tough on me.

The 1st day in Imus, Cavite I spoke at one of the churches. Waiting to greet everyone at the door...child after child filed in the first was an orphan. Each child grabbed my hand turned it palm out and held the back of my hand to their forehead. I did not know why at the time. 35 kids and about 10 parents attended sunday school. About 10 other familes showed up later. I was so overtaken by emotions and gratitude they showed me, I could not hardly speak during the 1 hour lesson I gave. I kept cryng like a baby. I think they thought i was a goof. I was not even sure how many grapsed the english language but I found out most did very well.

You make my heart swell.. You're such a good person... I need to take time to do more.. Need to forget the me time I try to grab on my time off, have to start giving it to others...

No never forget the me time...that is important as well. Balance is key.

I may be too nice at times, but we will not go there. I do have a mean side too, once you cross me watch out. I'll eat you up. I sometimes am not the person I want to be. Something I continue to work on.

I have a really soft side but yes, I continue to work on it as well.. I have gotten way better and controlling that but every here and there my mouth gets ahead of my mind and before I know it I've slayed another...

What motivates your heart?...Was a question posed to me along time ago. Made me stop and think awhile. Not what motivates me in my business or education. But what is in my heart? That is a tuff question to answer.

So I will pose that question to you...not to be answered in these goofy threads but in your own mind. Then pick a dear friend and share them with him or her.

Hmmm I'll have to think about that... I doubt any of my friends would care to hear it though... lol

I bet you would be surprised....What about your Sis or Sons?

Sis definitely not... J would look at me like I had 3 heads.. My oldest would probably do the same.. It's no big deal.. As we said the other night.. I'm used to talking in my own head..

Well, Ok, dont share it unless you feel you can with someone who will understand. Yeah sons may not be best choice.

But it did make me think about what I wanted in life, as a dad, and as a person.

The one thing I have found is that by helping others, I think I actually get more out of it than they do. Almost seems counter productive. You do to help others then feel good about doing it.

All is Vanity, the waters flow from north to south continually, the wind blows east then west, in the end we can not change what has been done or what will be done.

That is very profound... I do think I kind of did that the other day when I decided it was time to do things for others...

Not all is original

I know but it doesn't make it any less so...

So on a lighter note...

Ichanged my look a bit. Shaved my gottee from full to half. No more stash. Was a little weird at first, but have had a lot of positive feed back. So I'm thinking of keeping it. Just not sure how professional it looks.

oh now see you're so not nice... I can't see it but have to hear about it... <sigh>

I'm sure it looks great...

hello...just my opinion..but you look nice clean shaven, you look young.

You to Joy..you look good without the facial hair..

You know what look I am speaking of? Maybe if your nice.

Lori Thank you, I do try to keep it clean shaven...

sorry not sure I can agree with you about Updawg though, I think goats are totally hot... clean and trim of course...

I actually prefer hair on a guys face...just the only picture I have seen of him.. you updawg. Are there some with hair in your profile?

I do know what you're speaking of and it's like a total makeover that you're teasing me with... Not that it wasn't good before, it was but now well it's the mystery.. I saw your goat in the video..
