Happy Valentines Day!
~ February 11th, 2002 ~ Issue #79 ~
First of all, I'd like to apologize and publicly state that I feel like quite an ass right now! And I'd like to apologize to them, and the person who wrote this email to me I hope knows who they are (there was not a handle sent with the email, so none has been posted) and that I am truly sorry. I've had this email in my mail box since October 4th and somehow it got sent to the wrong folder and overlooked until I began cleaning out my email folders. It was meant to be posted in the very next Ezine after I received it, however due to my own mistakes, it was not. Once again, my apologies. The email read as follows:
I didn't know who to send this through, and or where to send it too, but I wanted to say a little something about Americans. I am proud to be an american and I stand up more now to the flag than I ever have before... So why is it that nearly three weeks later, people have stopped showing the red, white, and blue? Nearly every car had flags waving in the wind, and now it is becoming scarce. Three homes down the street from me, who were the first to put up the flags, have now taken them down. I have this strange feeling, that America is starting to move forward a little to fast and that we are forgetting too soon what happened. Yes we need to move on and try to go on with our daily lives, but don't let this tragedy slip away into the night, and pretend it never happened. Nearly 6 years later, the Oklahoma City bombing is forgotten.. I only hope that people keep remembering for a long time what happend on 9-11. mourning and saddened american... And again, I need to apologize to me(f)™. An email sat in my inbox of all places, right where anyone with eyes would see it, except me of course. A reply to a Q n A question that was mistakenly left out. My apologies me(f).

*disclosure*
Now............to all my chat family and friends........I have no idea where to begin to tell just how much you all mean to me, also there are just waaaaaaaaaaaaay too many of you to list individually. Let me just say that is the almost six years that I have been chatting, you have been there for me through life and death, my ups and downs, my great moods and my most worst ones as well, my illnesses and surgery's as well as the happy times in my life. You have been there to congratulate me and support me when I was losing what little mind I have planning my wedding and you were there to support me on the near death of my son and his very blessed recovery from his illness.
There were times where without some of you, I probably woulda done something drastic, stupid or just plain insane. You guys/gals mean more to me than I can ever express in this lil message. I just want you all to know that I love each of you dearly and that I hope you have the best Valentines Day ever and get that "special" Valentine that you are hoping for. *huge tight huggers n kisses where they go*
I love you babes. Here's to 3 successful and sometimes stressful years of
marriage -- and to a lifetime of more experiences. ~always yours~
But the more time we spent with each other chatting and talking on the phone i just knew that i felt the same way. As the days went by my love for you continued to grow. You loved me for who I was and you taught me so much about myself and the world around me. You taught me that not all guys are jerks and that nice guys really do exist. I love the way your so caring and loving towards me. When i need someone to talk to your always there for me.
We met in person Feb 3, 2002 and it was everything that I expected it to be and so much more.So today on Valentine's Day I declare my love for you Rich love you always and forever.
Your,Ali*hugs and kisses*

Horoscopes
Clarity and sanity return this week, boosting your confidence and determination to raise the bar and reach a little higher for an even shinier brass ring. Why cut corners or settle for less when the best is within arm's reach? You begin the week in an idealistic, possibly romantic frame of mind and won't have much interest in anyone or anything that can't keep up with your imagination and energy level. The last thing you want to deal with now is a dream killer -- especially since you're hot on the trail of something significant. Don't be at all surprised if others are wowed by your understanding and articulate presentation.
Keep an open mind about a job possibility. Instead of rejecting an idea, give yourself more time and space to think about it. If you're already feeling overwhelmed, you may not be receptive to the potential staring right at you. Take care of pressing matters and unavoidable obligations, then give yourself adequate time to carefully consider what may be an excellent opportunity. If you permit pressures and duties to run you ragged, leaving you too tired to recognize people and things that might possibly change your life, then it's past time to get off the merry-go-round. Very sweet opportunities with a relatively short shelf life will cross your path this week. Don't let them slip through your fingers.
A more sophisticated, savvy YOU emerges this week, renewed and better prepared to tackle the world. You feel as if someone finally sawed off your leg and wrist shackles. Whatever dragged you down or held you back seems pathetically powerless now; the irony is that your obstacles never were that powerful. Now, your heightened perception recognizes your mightiness. Your self-image and awareness are better than they've been in ages. You're on an uphill swing toward a better life. Recognize this -- and continue attracting vital people and circumstances. FYI: Ditch anyone who makes more excuses and less of a difference.
Your position in a key relationship is much clearer this week. Instead of wondering where you fit in -- or if you fit in -- your role becomes stronger and your security, assured. A situation that might have gotten away from you can finally be reeled back in. You feel confidently in control. A partnership or financial matter intensifies and goes in your favor. Something new and quite attractive is likely to begin, giving you a new lease on life. Welcome change, because that's where opportunities are born. Clinging to the past can only offer limitation and frustration.
This week's New Moon jump starts your personal and business connections. Evolve past what no longer works, satisfies, or inspires -- and make room for something that reflects your passionate approach to life. Partner with someone you admire -- someone with the capacity to surprise, thrill, and fully engage your wild imagination. If your relationships have become a predictable yawn, be honest with yourself and those involved, and seriously look at carving out a new life. Don't pin this responsibility on others, Leo. This is your choice and your show.
Continue rebuilding your confidence while you're updating your resume. What do you really want to do? Until you can staunchly answer that question, your future hangs in the balance. So much is available -- if you're willing to move forward. If you continue straddling two worlds, you'll remain stuck -- probably at someone else's mercy. Be strong enough to release what was probably a pipe dream and refocus your energy on personal and professional circumstances that are worthy of your excellence.
The tables turn in your favor, particularly in romantic and friendship zones. Don't be a stranger to pals who miss you -- pack your overnight bag and spend time with family and friends going through Libran withdrawal. Children may play an increasingly important role in your life. Expect announcements, phone calls, and surprising news this week. One door closes, but another one opens revealing warmth and acceptance. Some of you may finally let go of a shop worn, tired out relationship that hasn't been right for ages. FYI: As soon as you let go of the past, a future buzzing with vitality can break through.
You feel much better this week, partially because others seem to grasp what you're saying and also because pending issues can finally be pushed forward. Still, you require more personal time to collect your thoughts and plan things without others' constant drama and interruption. You may fantasize about hibernating from the usual hustle this week -- maybe take a few days off or ignore your cell phone or pager. Just soaking in a fragrant, warm bath sounds exquisitely delicious, doesn't it? Allow yourself a little more space, peace, and privacy.
The pace of your daily life picks up this week, making time management more important than ever. Time is money -- not to mention sanity -- so do your best to work within time limitations and honor others' schedules. You probably won't have many opportunities to window shop and daydream, particularly during the weekdays. Visitors, friends, and professional associates may pile up on your doorstep, unless you carefully manage your schedule. Your mind is a marvel this week, excellent in problem solving, inventing, and brainstorming. A few provocative comments may finally set the wheels of progress in motion.
Your position is better understood this week. This is such a relief because you won't have to exert tons of energy explaining yourself. Important financial decisions are likely to be made. You may consider selling something that no longer interests you or has become more trouble than it's worth. You may also look into investing in something eccentric but fascinating. If anyone tries to order you about or control you in any way, your amazing contrary side is likely to erupt with a vengeance. Your judgment is sound and your plans have real merit. Follow your own muse, no matter what anyone else thinks. Every time you turn around, you're faced with another unexpected development. If anyone can handle this sort of uneasiness, it's you. Your world is being constantly rattled and reshuffled, almost to the point that you feel dizzy. You've known for some time that change is inevitable, and now you're surrounded by reminders that change is already here -- whether you're ready for it or not. The key is to not resist or fear waves of transformation. You need the built-in vitality and spark that new people and fresh opportunities can offer.
A friendship is finally better understood. You're able to make sense out of a relationship that once tried your patience and elevated your anxiety, but now quietly takes its place in your book of memories. Are you happy with your current living situation -- completely happy? Give some thought to making a few improvements -- or maybe even packing up and relocating. A friend or colleague may bring promising news that motivates you to consider other locales, probably due to a career opportunity. |
