    hello, sorry for causing dissagrements and such... I havent read the posts myself since I wrote them so I don't really agree im bitter, angry, selfish, ect., I've been all at one time or another, but I'm a little more umm... dynamic, than some disabled guy who is out to get... whatever. Sometimes I write to vent, or have fun, or to do some stream of thought work, but I'm not asking for ANYTHING. Check your dates that was a long time ago. As for s.h. well... that's all I have to say about that. (Forest Gump style)

    You were in a heck of a 'pity me' mood when you first posted, One Arm & I'm glad the bump in your road has leveled out. Since so many Rainbows have had hard bumps in their life roads, you won't find a lot of pity here and maybe next time you need to vent, you will take some of the suggestions offered, since they are usually offered with life experience & care. Thing is, with Rainbows, you'll always find love & caring, even if it isn't in the capacity you hope for. No one who has posted thus-far would have posted at all if they didn't care.

    Also, it might be wise to remember that when you post something to the web, it is basically there forever. Even if you edit your post, the original is still imprinted into the server memory. Even hard deleted posts could be accessed by going back to the post date.

    I read on one of your posts that you were going to take a writing class....how is that going?

    I'd love to write, but getting up and dressed everyday was too much for my mom to do alone, I had to withdraw. I'm all about making money now, which is no way to live I know.

    Nothing wrong with making money, bro.
    IMO it's how you make it and what you do with it that counts. Earn it honestly and use it wisely.

    Littlewing (the missus)and I have made decent money. We do live modestly and share the bounty.

    Funny thing though...A number of Rainbow hippies who have enjoyed our home and hearth have actually bitched about our being "middle class".

    Whodathunkit???? Me!!! middle class!!!! And to think...I used to live in a van down by the river.

    Zen:D

    PS....Remember, you can do anything you set your mind to!!!! Except maybe paper hanging. (hope you understand my humor.)

    I agree with Zen, ain't nothin wrong with making money, it's the 'hows' & the 'where it goes' that count.

    So are you using your hipshop as a money maker or doing anything video game related?

    Naw, games haven't made me anything. I do ebay every once in a while, but I'm learning to trade on the forex. I've accually always looked up to my unkle (he's a businessman). He's been all over the world, but I can't seem to get on my own. It's harder now that I can't walk, but I've always enjoyed pushing the limits, when I get motivated, that's problably my biggest obstical.

    trading is tricky right now but with patience, you might be able to pick up some $$ motivation is pretty important to just about any endeavor but it sounds like you have a good, realistic goal

    Now this is funny. Telling in it's irony, but still funny. I once posted that i would make a shitter however the handicapped wanted me too, but they were responsible for telling me what that was. I was flamed that i should 'look it up myself', or i 'wasn't a real rainbow'.
    Then every time i remind someone to be nice i get told that calling a cripple names is tough love. (i once had a thread shut down titled 'why don't we say things nice', because it drew so much flame. No kiddin.)

    I'm sure i have a lot of subtle things to learn, and i will try to pay attention to all the wise folks on this site.

    As for the question of if i read the whole thread, yes. And i wrote one arm a note when he first started it, and told him he could come stay with me if he thought there was anyway he could contribute to our community. He never wrote back, and i assume that he had nothing more to say to me about it.

    One arm: I don't think you purposefully troll to "judge and demean" folks. I think that like some folks i know, you have bad days, and better days. Hope you have lots of good days.

    SH: I tried to compliment you by implying that you had so many blessings, that it ought to be easy for you to be grace full. Hope i wasn't too subtle with my compliment.

    H stead: Boy you sure do have nice diction!

    Hope all you non sugar coating nice folks enjoy each others time. What's that dear, my you sure are good to me. Come and sit on 'daddy's' lap.

    (((smooching)) "Lord, oh my, you sure are good to me" ((smooching))

    I have no Idea of what your talking about rasta. You call it being graceful to lie, sugarcoat and just pay lip service. Maybe in the right wing of things, but it's just pretence and is not REALITY.

    Life is what you make of it, if you think it's through Blessings, no, it's from hard work and getting the doing done. It's the choices we make and what we make out of them. Then it becomes a Blessings.

    Very little in life is just 'handed' to you on a silver platter. Someone had to do the work to achieve the outcome desired. It may have not been you who achieved it but was granted to you by someone else' effort.

    You handicap ppl by coddling them and carrying them instead of making them walk/think on their own. If you carry a babe forever it will never learn to stand up on it's own. ( just a metaphor, I know one arm cannot walk).

    My response to One Arm seems to upset you rasta, more then it did One Arm. Futhermore I did not find your response a complimentary one either.

    It's looks like One Arm is over his tantrum and is back in focus, so I don't know where your coming from Rasta. but I do hope you find peace.

    sh
