my wife, the hungarian goddess, and i just returned from a wonderful one week vacation in yosemite!
i've been many times as a child and young adult, but haven't been for 17 years or so.
it was the hungarian's first time.
Hey I missed you Buddy! what a great holiday,
I used to go to Yosemite, when I lived in CALI - great place if you can deal with the crowds and DA BEARS!
Funny story from over 10 years ago I Will share when you have time.
BTW, I was not aware your wife was Hungarian, I am too!
Tell her my family (mother was from Pest) and Father - from Eastern Hungary
I am full blooded Magyar
Köszönöm

i have to ask ya'll
why do they "post" Psychic Conventions on billboards? Shouldn't all that attend know where and when it will be held
just wunnering
it's becoming apparent that there are a zillion different names for a zillion different beliefs/non-beliefs out there.
without pigeon-holing myself under a particular definition, there are a few of which i can pretty closely identify with for the time being.
maybe agnostic, and then also appreciating the freethought pansies.
this is what I was looking for - da mango & J.Lo

maybe you are an atheist.. maybe you are agnostic.. you have left a cult, left behind an entire belief system, complete with detailed instructions on how to live..rules to follow for every aspect of your very life.
you know it was a big lie.. you are now naked, staring at your soul.
just you, just your own thoughts, just your own voice, your own feelings.
Sing it Cher!

As long as you can "handle da Mango" - nice comments from all above
Agnostic is not bad, as long as you are HAPPY wit it!
hello to you all this evening.
so many here have left the organization or been put out/disfellowshipped for so many unjust reasons.
losing family, friends, jobs, even sanity at times!.
I read it all tonight (been on the road)
I love what NC and Mouthy Said, well put and always well spoken
Words to think about and words of wisdom.
Empathy Rules, if you got it, you can overcome anything,
there is ALWAYS someone that has it WORSE than "you"
Peace out
