LIST OF SUGGESTED THOUGHTS AS YOU READ AND/OR CONTEMPLATE REPLYING TO SOMEONE...…. EITHER ONLINE OR IN LIFE.
_______ “Mistakes happen; nobody’s perfect.”
_______ “This situation won’t last forever.”
_______ “I’ve already been through many other painful experiences, and I’ve survived.”
_______ “This too shall pass.”
_______ “My feelings are like a wave that comes and goes.”
_______ “My feelings make me uncomfortable right now, but I can accept them.”
_______ “I can be anxious and still deal with the situation.”
_______ “I’m strong enough to handle what’s happening to me right now.”
_______ “This is an opportunity for me to learn how to cope with my fears.”
_______ “I can ride this out and not let it get to me.”
_______ “I can take all the time I need right now to let go and relax.”
_______ “I’ve survived other situations like this before, and I’ll survive this one too.”
_______ “My anxiety/fear/sadness won’t kill me; it just doesn’t feel good right now.”
_______ “These are just my feelings, and eventually they’ll go away.”
_______ “It’s okay to feel sad/anxious/afraid sometimes.”
_______ “My thoughts don’t control my life; I do.”
_______ “I can think different thoughts if I want to.”
_______ “I’m not in danger right now.”
________ “So what?”
_______ “This situation sucks, but it’s only temporary.”
_______ “I’m strong and I can deal with this.”

Everyone comes to mind at sometime or other. And many times a situation leaves me with... Jesus wept.

Good to see you Willie. Missed your posts.

With all that make up? I still ask why? But I know . . .

Much love!
Ha!
It makes us feel more beautiful. LOL
Really, I don't care for too much make-up.
Anyway, my skin can't take it...so I'm safe!

Nancy, why don't you complete this limerick for Willie:
There was a young man named Willy
He always tried to be silly
There once was a young man named Willy
He always tried to be silly
He went down to London
To look for his pumpkin....

One would think that Willie would have congratulated you by now. He's a *big boy*.
Yes...I know, @Willie T is, like WAY tall! :eek: He could hurt me, lol. But, I know he would never hurt a woman ♥

Or how about..."If I had a nickle for every time something was said that I didn't understand I would be asking...where are all these nickles coming from?"

Better than ‘your a$$ is grass and I am a lawnmower”

That was my dad’s go-to whether it fit the situation or not

I did delete it Willie...was not sure is you liked it or not...
So you chickened out in the end. :oops:
Create a new one and present it to Willie, and he will love it. But it has to be new.
