Once bitten twice shy, or may be more

I stumbled upon the following on a website called experienceproject.com. I can relate to this one so much, and I have decided to put it on my blog. It goes like this ..

" I try to learn from the mistakes that were made in past relationship, become wiser and more cautious after each one. Therefore it takes me time to be able to show how I really feel about a person. Although inside my heart melts for every compliment made by them, every sweet or kind thing they do, and truly appreciate the warmth they show.  

But I will not throw myself out there and wear my heart on my sleeve until they have earned my trust. I have been hurt, and badly in relationships.  Its just the reality of my life, and the choices I may have made.  So I am a sceptic, and will believe words that are backed up by actions more so thea just words. I will make sure they have shown me and have accepted me and respected me for being me. I cannot pretend to be who I am not.  And allowed me the time needed to gain that comfort in that relationship. Once that happens I am the warmest and most loving person to be with."

What's on my mind now

How hard can job hunt be ? Two simple words, but a long process behind it. As on July 2010, the unemployment rate in USA stands at 9.5%, including 14.6 Million unemployed persons.

Especially in Houston - spending all that money on filling your gas tank, and daycare, in pursuing an unpaid internship while in school ? I don't know ! Hi-Tech thieves selling children's social security numbers long before the little one's even have a bank account ! How horrific ..

Craft project

It is a beautiful and clear Sunday morning as the three of us chit chat in the living room. It was time to jump into action to do what I love the most - doing creative projects. Archu had to decorate a shoe box and make a card for valentine's day as a craft activity. We used gift wrapping paper, scissors, glue, crayons and markers. Within minutes our craft idea was ready.. A couple of pictures for you. What surprised me.. Archu looked a me and said 'thank you amma' with a beautiful smile, and then gave me the happy hug !

Things I have learnt

I have learnt some valuable life lessons over the years and want to compile them so my kids can benefit. - Health is wealth, We realize it most only when we get sick. - Your spouse can be your best friend. -You are your child's hero. -Past is history, Tomorrow is mystery. Today is a gift, that's why its called 'Present'. - Don't worry about what people think of you. - Greet with a warm smile, no matter your mood. - It's all in your mind. -When someone says something, listen and appreciate. - Watch your words. - Work when you want to, also take a break when you have to. (Applies more so to women) - Your baby has one childhood. Relish it with him/her leaving no regrets. - Your parents love you the most, and you love your parents as much as they love you inspite of any past arguments. - Never make someone feel like they are less worthy than you. - Never show off, because everyday is not sunday.
