Burning Bridges continued.....

I'd like to introduce you to a new friend of mine whom I met through MySpace. His name is John Dartnell and he's from England.








John Dartnell - Welcome to My Circus



He wrote a song about Burning Bridges, so I wanted to share his link and talent with you, as well as to add his song as a background to my previous post about the topic of Burning Bridges (seems many of us have this need in common, huh?!). I hope you enjoy his work--I feel it is very impressive. He is a very unique, one-of-a-kind guy, really quite special!! If you are a MySpace member, add him to your friend's list, and if not, you may want to consider joining us there...even drop him a line if you are so inclined--I know he's appreciate it!! We're there primarily to share good music and a lot of fun!! Enjoy!!!!

Confidence

To me, confidence is knowing who you are and then acting as if you do. It involves treating yourself well and feeling deserving. It provides you with the ability to make the best decisions when the need arises. It helps you relate better to others.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wow, so here is the dictionary definition of confidence:

Confidence

noun

Definition:

1. belief in own abilities: self assurance or a belief in your ability to succeed
.lacked the confidence needed to reach the top

2. faith in somebody to do right: belief or trust in somebody or something, or in the ability of somebody or something to act in a proper, trustworthy, or reliable manner
.I have total confidence in her judgment.

3. secret: something told to somebody that is to be kept private

4. trusting relationship: a relationship based on trust and intimacy
.She took me into her confidence.
.But I told you it in confidence!

One thing I've learned...

...from marriage and divorce.

A gift is sometimes an ultimatum. It can become a way for the other to manipulate you into giving them something they need or want. Some gifts are conditional--the person is really seeking to receive rather than to give. Those types of gifts are not true gifts--this much I have learned.

My fav new movie is 'ONCE'!!!

Not everyone agrees with me, but I love this foreign movie set in Ireland. Whenever I 'really' like a movie, I find that I watch it at least three times upon discovery. Some think of this one as a 'sleeper', but perhaps because it is so simply (and, imo, beautifully) made, it was easy for me to watch it over and over. If you haven't seen it, this will provide you with some insight. Open the menu and enjoy more songs from the soundtrack. I hope you like!!!
