 With No Potential....
<input type="text" name="EmbedSearchBox" /><input type="submit" value="Search" style="font-size:12px;" />
<br/>The Velocity Of Love - Suzanne Ciani

I have thought of myself as the passive girl with little potential for a long time now....I have. I have wondered about what the future holds for me. I hear those voices in my mind, taunting me about all the screw ups I've had. I've had those quiet reflections on many things.....

 I want a better tomorrow. I want whats best for me....my friends and for the world in general. I am, and always have been a quiet person who thinks of herself with little potential.

 I pretend many times to be fine, but the truth is most of the time I'm not and it eats away at me on the inside. I feel pain, remembering what once was, and what is. I come to this computer, feeling a way to escape it all. I worry about the good of people. I cry at night when I think too much.
I am and always have been a quiet person with little or no potential.

I understand my mistakes now and hope I've learned from them. I try to say 'everything will get better', but inside I doubt my words. I dream of a perfect world, one where everyone would be happy, myself included. I try my best to achieve my goals and to be happy. I hope all the evil on this world goes away....

  I spent the day today with my best friend in the entire world. I see him only on occasion....times when I begin to drown in my own sadness. He has been my conscience for so long now. He is my Jiminy Cricket.....the angel on my shoulder. Yes, my best friend is a man. Does that surprise you? He and I talk about so many things. We laugh til we snort. He makes me forget all the bad in life and makes me remember the good I have left. He knows me inside and out and tells me what I need to hear and not what I necessarily want to hear. Someone asked me once if I would ever go out romantically with him. Maybe once upon a time....but not now. Our friendship is so much more precious to me now than any romantic tryst. Don't get me wrong.....he's very good looking. But, the bonds we have mean so much more to me and I know he'll be there for me forever. I have seen him through some dark times as he has seen me. He is at my side whenever I need him there and I've found no one else to be exactly like that. He told me today he will dance at my wedding. He is truly the meaning of a best friend and for that I love him dearly.....
 
Now I know......I am a quiet person and always have been......with so much potential.

So, your best friend is a guy??
I never would have figured on that one...

And like funnyman said above...You have much potential.
You don't need any man (best friend or not) to tell you that!!

sweetman...He is a friend, a dear friend who has seen me at my worst and at my best.
I would do nothing ever to change that...Thanks.

foxman...So, now you know!!! It was nice to go and just talk and laugh and forget all the pain...Too bad I had to come back...Thank you

S,
I know personally what great potential you have.
Is this the fella you wanted me to meet??
Things are always darkest before the dawn....right?

It's so awesome that your best friend can make you see yourself through his loving eyes. I have a friend who needs to see his self-worth and I always tell him that I wish I could hold up that mirror so he could see what I see. It's a special trust that you share with your best friend. Lucky you!

It is so wonderful that you have someone like that in your life, to help you through so much. You both are very lucky to have eachother.

YES! YES! We all need that person in our lives that we can lean on. That person we know that will drop everything to come to us if we call, without hesitation. To me, that is the true meaning of love. When you find the right man, he will become that for you. For now, your friend is keeping the seat warm. What's really so special, is that your friend wants him to take his seat and will be your biggest fan. He will be in your heart forever. :)

What a special guy, S. You're both very fortunate to have each other. If you're truly not interested in him romantically, send him my way :) Just had to add that, lol!
Posted by  Ellie2008  on 2009-02-24 00:41:40 
  
And, by the way, S. You have ENORMOUS potential. Know it!

Always nice to have someone special in our life. :) this was great. Potential in your case, may be an understatement. I am just sayin'.. xx

angel...Thank you so much for being such a sweet friend.

ff...I hope you can do for your friend what mine did for me today.

CG...It is lucky for me, I know. I'm not so sure he thinks so many times..LOL

Brian...He reminds me so much of you. He is a brother to me in so many good ways and I love him as I do you...:)

Ellie...I'd love to send him your way. He needs someone nice in his life. And thank you for being so sweet. I need to believe in myself so badly right now.

I like how fragile this looks...like a snowflake...it could melt or break at any moment because of that weakness you feel...

I think many of us feel this way and come here for that reason...lost souls feeling the weight of the world...turning into children...looking for a shoulder support...trying to stand on our own...falling to addiction.

Potential is always limitless til it is defined...potential for what? art? singing? love? sexual stamina?:P walking farther than any man has before?

Think not of potential but what you CAN do and DO do:P Potential might just sit in a genie bottle like a cloud of pink smoke. I know, I should tell myself some of these things:P Slaps myself.

Oh, and for reference...Gwen Steffani, when she came out with her last album "Sweet Escape", thought she was running out of potential. She mixed things up a bit with other artists...could have been a sign of weakness...running out of steam. But, that's why there are such things as divine inspiration and second winds. Just when you think you run out of ideas...another one hits you like lightning. But, in our low times, when it rains...it pours:P Gwen has a great voice and surely has not run her well dry. Just needs inspiration to like the fire.

A...Those comments are the sweetest ones you've ever left for me. What can I say? You amaze me at times almost as much as you anger me at others. Thank you...:)
