Often, when the world's spinning just a little slower, off just to the left of that I'm supposed to be doing, there, I can see your smile.
Somehow in this refreshed state, there, your laughter reminds me that though not everyone understands how to live within themselves, you're doing quite a good job nonetheless!
Birthdays then, I suppose bring people together, but, the reality of our written knowledge of the other, keeps our bond intact....
But me, I choose to believe in Love.
The kind that is real now, and the kind that becomes so, after time...
... you though, as the night comes back around, and the candles flicker as the chocolate disappears, please, consider this one aspect of the holiday to come; will you, and how much should you, feel regret for what you'll accept, just to have something to talk about on Monday?
Not that I'm being pessimistic, for I Love Valentines day, the flowers and the poems... (continue reading)
Just as an aside: “An optimist stays up until midnight to Dance the New Year in! A pessimist though, stays up to make sure the old year leaves completely.” You, knowing the truth as you do, sleep as you're best able to enjoy the closure, and rebirth anew!
The answer is I desire to be with people.
This is probably a need for social recognition, with the intent to influence those around me, while creating friendships and personable interactions. I believe that my core is based on a strong people orientation for I always to seem to be meeting and/or enjoying the company of others.
I believe I have a good sense of humor. I usually know when to lighten an awkward or difficult situation, how to amuse and entertain those around me with laughter (though this could be a shield), and I use light conversation to keep people focused on the positive, it is also helpful in identifying those who are not friendly by nature!
I honestly feel very optimistic and this usually considered favorably by those around me. My perception is half full, more than seemingly empty.
When asked, those who know me say that I do have a way of generating enthusiasm in others and myself often involving many people who might not be inclined or initially motivated to get involved.
One of my great strengths is my ability to communicate and converse readily, of course with that in mind; I admit that I can talk too much!
Whereas I think of myself as a natural communicator, this is often enhanced by my willingness to explore conversations about most any topics, with whoever is present. The most common remark made about me is that I am a natural salesman, someone who listens attentively and mirrors back that which is spoken into me. I believe this why I am generally perceived as likeable and approachable, someone who is very sociable in my own assertive and straight forward style.
It is within this style that I seem to be more capable of showing empathy towards the needs and feelings of others, and this draws people to me. Often, even those who do not share my religious convictions, nor my desire for full disclosure, seem to be able to look beyond what they are afraid of within me, and seek to engage me anyway!
I see myself as:
Enthusiastic about activities and involvements. Somewhat diplomatic with most every kind of person. I trust that I am a good citizen as well as socially poised and people oriented. I am morally inclined to do the right thing, without being presupposed to having a ready excuse when I fail and/or willingly do what s wrong.
I see myself as a friend, lover, confidant and soul mate!
Maybe not everyone likes me, but I do try to learn to like everybody.
