I'm so flattered when you say that I have a gift for putting words together. Writing in a foreign language, it sometimes worries me that I sound like Borat trying to be serious.<br/><br/>I'm sorry to hear about your health issues, but I'm confident you're in good hands when you refer to your husband as your angel!<br/><br/>I think we should write down our memories, and that we should share it with the world. I've recently scanned a lot of old pictures from my grandparents' albums. Portraits of my ancestors, stern-looking farmers from 1900-1910, young, fancy couples in love in the 1920s - wonderful, wonderful images - but their words are forever lost. I'll never know how they related to the world, how they fell in love, or what they liked.<br/><br/>I think our memories will mean something to other people, if not now, maybe in 40 years? Just remember to keep a backup copy in case of a major MySpace breakdown or something...:) I’m smiling :)) My friend, thank you very much for your kind words and blessings.

I think we should write down our memories, and that we should share it with the world. I’ve recently scanned a lot of old pictures from my grandparents’ albums.

I think our memories will mean something to other people, if not now, maybe in 40 years? Just remember to keep a backup copy in case of a major MySpace breakdown or something…:)

You don't know me and I don't know you, except for the two blogs I have read sitting here in the early morning drinking my first cup of coffee. I came upon your page googling for songs...for no other reason but to put on myspace! lol I read your first entry about your youth (Oh, I am female and older than you), and was touched and felt a connection between your words and my feelings about my own youth and present age. You have quite the gift for putting words together my friend. And then I read your entry about myspace..and I kinda got it, yet didn't. Yes, I believe that myspace is probably more for the younger crowd..I got there thru my daughter..who was so excited to help me set up a page! And you're right..the backgrounds..WOOO NELLY..some can blinde a person! And I didn't really get the comments section either, but that's neither here nor there. I just wanted to express to you my feelings on myspace. (Wow, I hope this is what the comment button was for!!! lol) Now, granted, these might change after a while since I am very new to it! haha But for now here goes. I became disabled due to an injury to my back a while back and have had many spinal surgeries, that didn't work. After those non working surgeries settled in my system, many other health issues started to rear their ugly heads. Lets just leave it at this..my husband (my angel) took his vows seriously suckingly got the "for worse" part early on in our marriage...but still loves me! yaaa! :) I spend a lot of time on the computer..(oh, did I mention we live 1000 miles away from our family and friends?)..and when I started trying to do all those code thingies that my daughter showed me on her visit, she was right, I got hooked. But I think I am obsessed with taking all those memories and feelings that YOU spoke of, only my own of course ;) and found a way to take them out of my heart, thru my fingers and onto a page for others to see. Now, I'm not stupid enough to think that MY memories and pictures would actually mean anything to any John Henry that surfs the net and stumbles upon my page, or even you for that matter, but they mean something to me...they mean EVERYTHING to me, and I think they will mean a lot to those who are in the pictures and videos, when they see them. Even if just for one minute those people see my page and a smile crosses their face or a warm and fuzzy feeling comes over their hearts when they see a picture and think..oh gawd..I so remember that! or, I remember that day..we had a great time! ..well, then that makes me happy. And hopefully, they'll use the comment section to say those things! lol Anywhoooo...that's just me I guess..I guess I use it to get out some of these fond memories a soon to be 50 woman, who longs for the days before the cane and perscription medicines to be able to just go to Walmart! lol But most of all, I just wanted to say, I liked your words and you sound like you have a good heart, filled with lots of wonderful memories of people you love and love you dearly. I hope you are blessed with many MANY more throughout your lifetime. Stay safe..have a good time..and smile! Hi..decadentsmooth.
