The Grass is Always Greener ..

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


When your glass is half full ...

... and today, my glass is half full of insight, resolve, comprehension, observation, perspective, realization, intuition, intention, integrity (man, that's a lot of "i" words),conclusion and finality.

I need to remember this feeling and what it took to get here. I was given a "gift" yesterday. It certainly didn't look like a "gift" two days ago - nor even yesterday morning - and the givers of the "gift" certainly didn't intend for it to be a "gift" ... but it was!

I like it when that happens!

I don't think I've ever been this curious about anyone's blog post before.

But if you're happy with this "gift" and have gained all those "i" words, than I'm very happy for you!

What IS it?

You're no longer a potential switch hitter...You switched teams altogether, didn't ya? Cheers!!

The best treasures aren't given, they are found...

I'd say you are welcome but I'm pretty sure it wasn't from me :)

Bina, I'm just happy that I am handling this in a different way than I would have in the past!

Real Live Lesbian, it wasn't meant to be a cliffhanger, but due to some unusual circumstances, it needed to be a bit cryptic.

The gift? The confidence to know the truth based on actions rather than allowing the truth to be obscured by words.

Deb, I'd love to share the whole story, but doing so would compromise my blogger integrity. I've traveled that path before - I don't need to retrace my steps!

Dana said...

Matt-Man, You know I couldn't do that! I just hate the confines of checking a box. Besides, RLL won't leave the love of her life!

buffalodick, quite poignant, and quite applicable in this situation. This one was stumbled upon and cherished rather than tripping me up!

Lu', trust me - you wouldn't have wanted to be on the giving end of this one!

what did I do now?

Vinny "Bond" Marini said...

Based on your reply to RLL...let me tell you...I am so in a situation now that makes me furious...but there is nothing I can do..

Dana said...

doggybloggy, *giggle* Not a damn thing! You know what's even better? It's because of you (in a good way) that I am handling this much differently this time around. I never thought I'd say this, but "Thank you!"

Bond, you know, some times this blogsphere gets really, really small, and things really are better left alone - although I am having a difficult time managing the bleeding - of my tongue - from biting it so hard!

Vixen said...

I'm wishing you didn't have to bite your tongue, lol.

But regardless, funny how sometimes what you take away from a situation works out the way you are describing. I like it when that happens too. :)

Glad to hear you are seeing it in a positive way :)
That always helps. I need to practice that more!
Beautiful photo!

I'm glad that you were able to see the gift despite its origins.
