I know I've written on this subject before, but its worth repeating: BE LOYAL TO YOUR HUSBAND or WIFE, BOYFRIEND or GIRLFRIEND, FAMILY & FRIENDS... you never know how much time you have left with them and what the future may hold. LIFE is precious and its good to stop every now and then to reflect on those we love & how much effort we are putting into the relationship to make them happy :) So say sorry, say I LOVE you ...let them know how you really feel about them...make this life worth living :)))
These songs from Nickelback sort of sum it up... hope you enjoy them

it’s time to try something new. Instead of spending the weekend loafing around

can recharge your relationship’s batteries — the key is to try something new or
exhilarating. Read

Men Vs. Women Jokes
:: #10509By SideKick from
Missouri USA.
After 17 years of marriage, a man dumped his wife for a younger woman. The downtown
luxury apartment was in his name and he wanted to remain there with his new love
so he asked the wife to move out and then he would buy her another place. The
wife agreed to this, but asked that she be given 3 days on her own there to pack
up her things.
While he was gone the first day, she lovingly put her
personal belongings into boxes and crates and suitcases. On the second day she
had the movers come and collect her things. On the third day she sat down for
the last time at their candlelit dining table, soft music playing in the
background, and feasted on a pound of shrimp and a bottle of chardonnay. When
she had finished, she went into each room and deposited a few of the resulting
shrimp shells into the hollow of the curtain rods. She then cleaned up the
kitchen and left.
The husband came back with his new girl and all was
bliss for the first few days. Then it started, slowly but surely. Clueless,
the man could not explain why the place smelled so bad. They tried everything;
cleaned and mopped and aired the place out. Vents were checked for dead
rodents, carpets were steam cleaned, air fresheners were hung everywhere.
Exterminators were brought in, the carpets were replaced, and on it
went.
Finally, they could take it no more and decided to move. The
moving company arrived and did a very professional packing job, taking
everything to their new home...including the curtain rods.
Happiness is found along the way, not at the end of the road.
Have you ever noticed that despite all the different circumstances people have, and out of all the backgrounds they come from, there are always those who somehow maintain their happiness from day to day? The strong characters whose motto is to enjoy what they can out of each day while progressing towards their goals?
Its not that they are in blissful ignorance of what is happening around them or to them, its that they have learned how to make the best out of where they are and what they have at the moment, while positively working to achieve their dreams. A delicate combination of concerted effort and positive attitude is necessary to change what we can for the better while maintaining happiness. Many, however, waste their time wishing things were different, complaining about what they don't have and what others do have or shutting out all hope of happiness for the present and future by living in the past 'glory days'.
Yes, it would be wonderful if we all had the perfect circumstances right now; excellent health, no worries nor stress of any kind! Reality is, "that isn't how life works for anyone right now". The secret is to tap into our inner selves and somehow allow love, peace and contentment to become our main motivating forces. In light of this, I've decide to open up a special section of my blog designed for those of us who want to enjoy more happiness in our lives now, while progressively moving ahead to the goals we desire to accomplish and the places we'd like to be at.
Remember, happiness NOW depends on not just having and achieving our goals, but somehow enjoying each day that leads us to where we want to be! Feel free to add any comments or suggestions you may have to this discussion... it will be interesting to see what 'pearls of wisdom' we find out about :)
I've heard this song lots of times on the radio & decided to look up the artist... IMAGINE MY SURPRISE when I saw the incredibly rich, deep voice coming out of this young guy! Was totally not expecting that, but have to hand it to the kid... he has quite a set of lungs on him :)
Also watched the video, which deals with one of my major pet peeves... CHEATERS...where's the honesty, loyalty, faithfulness? Geeesh, get some self-control man *or woman* and live up to your word & love for your mate... anyone can cheat, try something exciting, like being faithful & having fun living life with the one you chose!!!!! You say its not exciting anymore... WELL MAKE IT EXCITING!!!
If you find someone who shares the same values as you, you have found a treasure!
