DISQUS

Without doubt I would like to share my last meal with my Mother and children. A last meal is only had by the dying, I mean let’s be real - no one decides to stop eating permanently. I can't imagine (if given the choice) leaving the living without taking a chance to appreciate time with those I love most. The foregoing makes me thing that this is a silly thing to consider. The question should be, "If you are going about to die and have a chance to plan a last meal...." The moment would be the most important thing, after all it's my last; the meal's content would be nearly irrelevant.

My next extended holiday. I am sooooooo overdue.

My simply "being" is something I am thankful for but harder to admit was the abundance in my life; I finally gained the guts to vocalize that thanks. The foregoing in mind, I have to say that most things I do are a product of the abundance of the blessings I have recieved, and thus, I have no major desire to receive thanks beyond the very kind consideration I already receive from literally everyone in my life.

Always take a pashmina since these days your airline blanket is more like a J-Cloth (and pillow like a Chicklet). If you are planning a trip with the whole family reading my friend Claire Newell's new book "Travel Best Bets: An Insider''s Guide to Taking the Best Trips Ever" is a must.

I will say no to old patterns of behaviour; both in myself and for my husband who has decided he wants global change (proof that there are MIRACLES!!).

AND... I'd also be arrogant.

As an ammendment (I read the question wrong).... My indepence would run rampant becasue it wouldn't be temepered by any desire for security or bonds.

I'd probably be a bit of a too "big". I think troubled times have probably tempered what would otherwise be a rather overwhelming personality. Time and age have also gone a LONG way in softening me.

I use the word to describe a certain refinement in taste or manners; someone who is polished or a higly cultured experience. However, by definition, I beleive it means to be evolved morally and intellectually.

I would like a deeper understanding of our own. From the beginning to the contemporary I would like to possess the full sociological understanding; the cause and effect of the events that have shaped us.

Without a doubt, our art collection.

When I wrote to my father and said that for our relationship to continue and for me to support him in addressing his alcholism he had to be accountable for his (some very terrible) actions. He chose to never respond. The past ceased to be relevant, the imprints of abuse disappeared and I was free to begin my life as I defined it. I have never looked back (except to smile).
