Sally's Thought For The Day

[Sally]

Sometimes being yourself isn't that hard and it is never a bad thing.

I know that isn't funny or particularly clever but it is something that we all need to know.

Love ya,

Sally

Being yourself is easy-it's being true to yourself that is hard!

KNOWING what you are takes time - and you will take many detours, have to back up and reroute in a different direction, over and over.

ACCEPTING what you are usually takes a sudden flash of insight and a lot of faith in your own self-worth - trusting yourself to the point of thinking "I am just fine being what I am," which incidently produces such a relief afterward, you'll just KNOW it is the right thing.

EXPLAINING what you are is tricky - it can be done to the satisfaction of some people, but other times it just doesn't work. The key to remember is - understanding by others is an option you seek - not a requirement. If they reject your explanation - it is their loss not yours. And if you did the explaining honestly, and with a self assurance - it's THEIR FAULT, not yours, if they cannot at least give you support and encouragement.

People really don't need to truly understand, they just need to love you, love you for yourself.

...............

So my thought thought for today.

BE TRUE TO YOURSELF - nothing else matters, and people will see that.

What is the dumbest question that you can ask a middle aged transperson?

Can you keep a secret?

Did it again - erased my message - said it saved it - it did not - 45 seconds and that'a a death notice. Is it just me???

My dear Dee Jay - 60 is kinda middle age - for those tortoices that live 120 years?

Nice carapace my dear.. But in pink?

GET THAT HEAD OUTTA YOUR... shell! hee hee

How is it possible that Chevy, GM, Ford, Dodge and Toyoto all make the best selling, toughest trucks with the biggest hauling capacity and power?

If this is possible then we only need one podium at the Olympics.

we're number one through five!

Love ya,

Don't ever ask me if you may borrow a tissue - the thought of its condition upon its return is not an image that I want to have with me.

So just ask me if I would give you a tissue - I will.

Love ya,

Sally - the tissue gifter

[JJ]

I promise I won't.

Do you feel the same way about money?

Love you

I don't know, I've never had any!

If 90% of what you worry about never happens, shouldn't we all spend a lot more time worrying about a lot more stuff?

Love ya,

Sally

[Sally]

Well it has been a year and four months since I had my last thought - you would think that this one would be really good.......don't get your hopes up.

I was wondering if I had the wrong version of the gospels - in all of mine the three wise men give their gifts to the Christ child but according to our current traditions it would seem that they simply exchanged their gifts with each other and left the Christ child out of it in the first place.

Love ya,

Sally

[Sally]

In listening to the Republican debates and noticing all of the changes of positions and attitudes I started wondering, is Mitt Romney an oximormon?

Love ya,

Sally

[JJ]

You got it half right Sally. But your word is too long

As a Democrat I sincerely hope he gets the nomination.

How about that donation of millions to the Mormon church and the position that the fact that the 1% have the majority of wealth in this country should be discussed privately but isn't right for public debate? Of course if I were in that 1% with him I'd agree.

This may be my first flat out political statement on the forums-or one of the few anyway.

Just couldn't resist. Think I'll go tape my fingers together so they don't get me in trouble. Or more trouble.

Love ya Sally

Work is what you do to make a living while occupying so much of your time that you cannot have a life.

All those previous glass half full/half empty thoughts seem pretty irelevent to me. Either way,there is clearly room for more vodka.

[Sally]

I have always wondered about this people who 'are not themselves' before they have their morning coffee - who are they at that time and what about the person they are being - do they have to drink that first cup of coffee simultaneously in order to each get back to the right body?

If so that could work out to be a better way than HRT and SRS if you could just not be yourself in the 'right' body and give up coffee.

Love ya,

Sally

[Guest Elizabeth K]

The ORIGINAL coffee joke;

Waitress! This coffee tastes like MUD!

Sir! That's strange, it was GROUND this morning!

Lizzy

[Guest Tamar]

Lizzie,never heard that one before,so I had a laugh while drinking my morning (instant) coffee. That tastes like mud.

Sally,perhaps its because I just woke up,but that's some serious brain bending there. . Perhaps I should go back to bed,everything was much clearer there.

[Sally]

Things always seem to be clearer and make a lot more sense than they do when you are awake.

Love ya,

Sally

[Guest Tamar]

True that.

Right back at ya

One thought against same sex marriages - just like any other marriage, they do come with all of the trappings - including In-laws!
