As someone who attempts to see the good in everyone and tries to hope for the best, there comes a time when you realize that there are some relationships that simply cannot be fixed; nor can you “fix” someone you determine to be “broken”. It’s not your duty or responsibility. One day the realization sinks in that it’s best to just let it go. Like the song says, sometimes goodbye is a second chance.

Morning, Morgana,
Thanks for another interesting link. So French social services empower women to run cooperative households for women! Tres civilisee.
We posted/tweeted it on myhouseourhouse and got some enthusiastic responses. Women having a ra
The word this year for me is “acceptance”. I do not like it but it is real. There are times, people and situations that you just have to accept. Times= I am not as young as I use to be, I can’t do the things I use too or I just can’t do somethings anymore. We cann’t stop aging, but we can be the best we can be. We can still do the things that make us look good or feel pretty. If we want to still put on make up or wear nice cloths, we can do that. Can’t do the things I use too = alot of that comes from do I really want too? My motivatation isn’t what it use to be. My daughter has left home, I have no purpose except to entertain myself and do those things that do make “me” happy. This is change and sometimes we have to accept change. Acceptance! People= friends, loved ones = we change with time. I have a girl friend that many years ago we were the best of friends. We told each other everything and when we got together we had more fun. We laughed, shopped, ate, shared – but then things began to change. Her and her husband got a winter home in AZ. A new life style, new interest. When we talked we didn’t have that common ground anymore except basic stuff on our health or how is your sister. The communication got distance and finally I found that I would rather have her not in my life then to feel left out, abanded or just invisible. So over the years, some friends that are younger and still working and I am retired, we lose that interest we once had. I have changed, they have too. We move on as they say and yes, I miss my friend, I miss those times we had together as buddies. Acceptance. Again, I do not like acceptance, but it is real and we must realize that things change, we change. It is up to us to make “us” happy, to accept ourselves.
