lets get to know each other in a nutshell

hi
i think it would be fun to try and get to know one another

we should all right a short paragraph or even a sentence that describes our good and bad points
then the next person must try and take what they believe you think your bad points are and turn them into something good before they describe themselves

if you think its totally lame dont play but i think it would be a good exercise and a good opportuniy to shed some light on the things that people obviously dont like about themselves

well heres me

i'm bubbly and lively and some people say i don't act my age, which i dont really mind about because that means i shall live my life young as i believe that is the true secret to eternal youth. i care for everybody i meet, i care for the world and i am always there to cheer my friends and would never do anything to hurt them , i am very hyperactive and try to make games out of everything but i am very much a pushover and never speak my mind even if somebodys hurting me, i very often try to forgive and forget but as most people know it isnt as easy as it sounds. I speak my mind as long as it isnt to hurt anybody. i have been told i have the most beautiful eyes and a models face, but that doesn;t matter to me because i dwell too much on being overweight.

Best thread yet.


Well, I am a young man of 25. I live alone with few friends in the world. I am unemployed, a victim of Tony Blair and a victim of New Labour's idealogical thinking: letting all the people of the world dwell quite freely in Britain. No controls on borders and social cohesion rocked to its foundation. I can be stubborn sometimes, but that is because I feel bitterness about the past. My childhood which was nothing short of a Charles Dickens novel. A future that lay uncertain. Thus folly I have in prison, only to come out to find I have no job to come back to. Yet miraculously, I got a second chance on my tenancy agreement. It seems these days, I try to keep myself healthy, I read books, listen to audio commentary, ie, Dad's Army, Newsnight on BBC2, and when I have Freeview, I tune into Parliament.

Some might say I am lonely boy with a black case along a windswept platform of the world. Where no protection is given. Where my choices, decisions all count. Where even the basic fundemental nesecceaties are so very few. But I try to hold my head up high. I choose not to die with my head toward the ground. I choose to die with some dignity at the very least. I am simply this: A troubled young man. I have a mother who has a habit of meeting the wrong kind of man. I have a father who has turned my own sister against me, and whom I have been in conflicts back in 2001-2004. Now I don't see my father. I have seen my mother, but I now wonder why I should. I don't feel angry at her, I have compassion. That too with my father, although not quite as much.

I am not going to be a victim any longer. I know that generally, things are okey. I have some professional support, apart from probation. Only time will tell. If I am famous one day in my life, I will give reference to this forum I have hidden strengths. I don't drink or smoke. Don't do drugs either. I am pretty clean from toxicology. My music is my strength. I want to utilise what I have been given, by the grace of God.

 

in the words of a rockyhorror song " don't dream it be it"
i belive in you and i believe you can do anything you put your heart
i also believe that all the sadness of the past will help with your music as you can use it to reach out to people in the same boat as yourself
and about not having a job, just apply apply apply and as for the foreigners coming into britain you can take it as an opportunity to make some friends from a different way of life and expand your knowledge of the world.
as for family nearly any bridges and divides in families can be fixed because although you may not think it your sister and father still love you deep down and even if its not your fault that you feel they dont like you, only you can fix it.
ket bygones be bygones forgive them and try and start a new with them
as for your mother dating the wrong guys, at least shes dating and that means that one day the perfect guy for her will appear for her
family is blood and blood should stay together try and rekindle bonds you had with your family because you never know when you will see them last and i know its not a nice thought but the sooner you realise that you will realise the time you spend with your family and the memories you create last forever.
And hey if you don't think you have many friends this is a good place to meet them
i know your strentghs and weaknesses and you know mine i would say we now know alot about each other that even many of our everyday friends don't know
so that makes us friends
because we have created a bond of trust where we know we will not judge oneanother for eachothers weaknesses but try to help eachother overcome what we find in each other as weakness but really turn out to be a strentgh

 

i would also be interested in listening or reading any music you write as i absolutly love music and believe that peoples souls shine through in music.
also if you would ever like to talk about anything that is ever getting you down and bothering you i always have a shoulder to cry on or an ear to bend
never let life get you down because all problems can be fixed
if you do ever want to talk phoenixliberty@hotmail.com
i am not a councellor and my knowledge only stems from my own existence on this earth but everybody has a piece of knowledge in which they themselves think is worthless but that information could help change someone elses life
