When you see me on the streets, in a store or at the school you will normally see me smiling, I look happy the kids look happy and it appears as if I have not a worry in the world. That is because I have made a conscious decision to smile through the rain. I also made a conscious decision to focus on what makes me happy and try not to let what I can’t control run me down. The problem with that theory on life is that at times everything comes down at once and the smiles, happy go lucky mindset is unable to keep up. I crash. I literally lay down and pass out to sleep numerous hours. My mind decides it can’t take any more and my …

Christine & Tony’s Story of Life and Love Part 2: Tony’s Story
I’m wondering if this is going to read like True Confessions; however, it is all true and it will show that bad boys can become good boys and men really only want the same things that women do. I am 60-years-old and have been married for two years to Christine, my third wife. She is precious to me and I have a very strong love for her.

Then I read more about introverts and extroverts. Direct quote from It’s My Life {{totally me}}: Did you know that extroverts recharge their energy by being around other people? It’s like we feed off the energy being put out. Most extroverts come home from parties buzzing and high on the collective energy they bathed in all night. Introverts on the other hand, are drained by being in public and recharge by being alone. This may be a big reason why I love …
Comfortable Relationships
I am a firm believer that actions speak louder than words. It is all too easy to say words, and for me it’s easy to write words, however, actions are what truly show how you are feeling towards a person. Involuntary body gestures show exactly what a person may be thinking or feeling towards you. In my own opinion if a person tells me that they are in love with me, then they would show this through affection, attention, support and little moments. I recently read an article that reminded me of the characteristics I have displayed in my dating life, jumping into a committed relationship before I truly knew this man was the man for me. In my past I always went for the person who showed me the …
