When we seek for connection, we restore the world to wholeness. Our seemingly separate lives become meaningful as we discover how truly necessary we are to each other.

I just threw up in mouth ugg. Such mushy gushy dreams of floating on a marshmallow.
How about when we seek a connection with HIM our lives have meaning and we discover the meaning of love. Just a thought.

Hi IndyRuss,

I can now only speak for myself. I belief in God as the Upper Power and Jesus as his son, who is by the way my greatest Idol, so no film stars or what so ever. Jesus showed us that he is so full of love, that he accepts every person for what they are. Someone who is different to us, is not less worth. It gives all sorts of skin colors, cultures and religions. Jesus showed us the unconditional love, what we human beings should try to follow. When we start realizing, that all these differences make our world so rich and colorful and all these differences make us trust and belief more in our own beliefs and what we have, than it would give more peace on earth. It has as example all sort of shapes and colors of butterflies, don't we love them all? We can accept everything, also when we don't agree with it!

And by the way IndyRuss, Mooma did write: "Seek for connection" so it does include your HIM!

Hi Mooma,

I like that wisdom of Margaret Wheatley, it actually incorporates every belief in it!
Every religion shows how we should be to each other, that is the so called Heart Law, which makes a living beside each other possible.

An other way to look at this phrase beside the religious part, which IndyRuss has seen in it:

What are we doing on these messages the whole time on GH, when we write to each other? Exactly that, we are for each other here in good times and in bad times. There are all souls at the other end!

Lagoona, I know, just screwing with moo. By the way if the grass is greener, it probably costs more also.

Hi IndyRuss,

I think I slowly get to know your way of talking, or better writing ......

Lol, lagoona... thanks for coming to my rescue, but the last time I took Russ seriously, was... well, the LAST time. HA! His bark is worse than his bite, but yeah, he can get quite nasty at times. But hey, we've gotta give him a place to post... cuz he's banned everywhere else! On forums, that is... how's facebook going, Russ? Get any people upset there yet?

And lagoona, I like your quotes!

Hi Mooma,

You are most welcome!

You know the saying barking dogs don't bite..... Unfortunately some of them can do so. Lucky we are separated through the net, hey Russ?

Maybe we have to send our Pussy cats over to his place, what do you think Mooma? Maybe it would do him some good? He might learn something from these lovely creatures with the velvety paw touch.
Well knowing him, I assume he might think these are Mushy Gushy animals....
DID YA HEAR THAT, DID YA FREAK'N HEAR THAT??? You know who says that, don't you Mooma? She is a lovely Lady as well!

Hi IndyRuss,

It's okay, I start getting used to your manner.

And this is now for myself: Remember my saying, that you don't have to agree, but you can always accept!
I do like you as person and I accept you for who you are, okay Russ!

Hi IndyRuss,

The eating one wasn't meant to be specially for you, it's for every one, that is me included!
I tell you directly, when you step on my toe, don't need to hide behind a quote of the day!
Until now you actually didn't do such thing to me, am I one of the lucky ones?

And that one with the Pussy cats was just teasing you a little bit, don't YOU do that always?

Okay friends and hugs?

Have a lovely day! By me it is already bedtime and I have to go and listen which story my pillow tells me tonight!

Hi Mooma,

Thanks Mooma for your quote of the day. It's really a very good saying.
It reminds me at the one: "The more I learn, the more I realize I know nothing". A life time is a too short span to know everything even from one specific topic. Well that keeps us going and not sitting down and swimming in our little knowledge we have.

Enjoy your day!

Hi IndyRuss,

You got MY head scratching figuring out what your 3 letters meant to be. I finally got it!

You come across very similar as my best friend. She has a sarcastic way to express herself and sometimes she hurts with it, but I know she doesn't wants to hurt; it is just her way of talking. I know, that in matter of effect she is a good person and she has a wonderful heart. My other friends don't understand that we get along so well, although we are so significantly different.

I know you IndyRuss are highly intelligent with a sarcastic way of expressing yourself. So why should I not accept it by you, when I do it by my best friend. I feel also, that you are a good person and that is what matters doesn't it?

And the pillow, who tells the bedtime story, is a joke of mine. I go to bed to rest my head on the pillow and wander hopefully into a nice Dreamland part.

Have a lovely day!

Lol, lagoona... good try (trying to find the kind side of Russ). Me? I think he's scratching his head because he's got dandruff.

Hi Mooma,

Yeap, might be... Did you asked him if he has ever tried the specific shampoos for that kind of thingy?

Can you imagine when Marianne and I go out and we meet people, who don't know us, she is tall and huge and I am petite and slim and the sarcastic way she talks to me. They ask her if I am her daughter and she is only 7 years older then me. We look at each other and we putter off laughing with the thought having a baby with 7 years old. We actually have great fun together, when we see each other, which doesn't happens every day because she lives a half an hour drive from my place.
I tried to write the half an hour with the asci code (alt and 171) but it doesn't work properly on this GH messaging; When I have send it; it looks like that: ½ It shouldn't have that funny A with the roof over it's head, which appears suddenly in front of the half sign ....sniff....!

Have a lovely day and a big hug!

Hi lagoona... friendship is precious indeed, and its memories are many. I'm sure the two of you have a hoot together!

Quotes:

"A friend is one who believes in you when you have ceased to believe in yourself."

"Friends are the Bacon Bits in the Salad Bowl of Life."

"If you judge people, you have no time to love them."

"Best friends are like diamonds, precious and rare; False friends are like leaves, found everywhere."

"Every man should have a fair-sized cemetery in which to bury the faults of his friends."

"We cannot tell the precise moment when a friendship is formed. As in filling a vessel drop by drop, there is at last one drop that makes it run over. So in a series of kindness there is at last one drop that makes the heart run over."

Hi Mooma,

Did you changed the animal? Today you seem to be a busy


all these quotes and one more beautiful then the other. It's hard to choose which one is the best.
I think I will give the price to:


Bravo!

Lice? LICE? no Moo you gave me crabs.

Hi IndyRuss,

Well as far as I know cat would taste like rabbit, that is what I have been told, that they ate during the war time. They cooked a cat stew without the head and you couldn't tell if it was rabbit or cat. I am glad I didn't had to go through this time. What I have ate once was frog legs, it is a delicacy, it tasted like chicken. From the moment I knew that they had to pull the legs out from a living frog, because it gets poisoned, when you kill first the frog, it was off my list. Human beings can be very cruel; all that only for a delicacy. That is something that makes my stomach turn.

Now to you Doggy at a cat show: Don't you even try to eat Mooma's or my cats, we will give you a newspaper over your dog head, you naughty wuff wuff !

Ciao amigo and have a lovely day! By the way have a good appetite with your buttered crabs!



Or do you need the butter for cooling your toe?

Yes they do taste a bit like rabbit which I had in Singapore and the Philippine island although there was a bar that served some that tasted like fish. Huh go figure I think they used a red snapper myself. Anyway glad your here expand yourself and with me please be yourself and dry not to interpret my dark humor to harshly.

Hi IndyRuss,

So you where in Malaysia and in the Philippines WOW! The one which tasted like fish could be also, when they use fish sauce or oyster sauce to cook it. Well I think they might have even used Bassa, you know the cheap fish, which they can catch in a murky river. We can buy this one here as well, it's a very tasty fish, but I am not so sure about the quality of it, thinking where it comes from. Here they brought it once on the News and showed where it was caught and the condition of the water, after that you don't feel like eating this fish anymore.

We have here Red Snapper (fresh from the ocean - catch your own) and it is really beautiful. I love cooking and by this one I dust the fillets in chickpea flour. Sprinkle some sea salt, pepper, some herbs, chilli and one fine cut garlic slice over it and pan fry it with a mixture of olive oil and olive oil butter. To serve I just top it with fresh lime juice. Cut up 3 different fruits like oranges, pears, nectarines, khaki, guava or strawberry (depending the season - mostly from my own backyard) and garnish this around the fish. Served with a tomato (also from my garden) salad, which has just olive oil, balsamic vinegar, fresh herbs, sea salt and pepper.

I am a very energetic person and love to fool around (teasing people), when I can. About your dark humor, I just teas you back. Is that fair for you? When I was searching for you a crab picture I came across the one with the toe, I found it funny. Naturally I never wish anybody gets bitten like that (specially not you my dear friend), I can imagine it is very painful.

Ciao amigo!
