When my mom went to Pakistan, I was scared that I was going to kill her plants. Luckily, they survived. I love how gardens look so pretty, but it's a lot of work. I really do want to try it out....hopefully some day I'll actually enjoy it.<br /><br />As for relationships...I have to agree with you that I have done that before, and all I felt was disappointment. I think the idea of not expecting anything from anyone is a smart one. But, like you said, it will take time to get to that point. Honestly, I've started applying "Never make someone a priority if they only make you an option" to my life. Needless to say, it's definitely helped!Rabiahttp://www.interruptingmydreams.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6555148914820940850.post-73790722915197568402009-06-18T02:13:30.205-04:002009-06-18T02:13:30.205-04:00I just finished reading, re the relationships.

It is hard to detach from wanting anything back, but I can see how it would be beneficial. I usually don't expect much from anyone so I guess I don't get disappointed much. I did just break up with one of my friends (read my posts!) but I don't think it was too much to expect that she a)listened to me when I spoke to her and b)stood up for me if her friends were crap to me (They were). Sometimes you need to cut slack, but sometimes the slack is waaay too slack anyway. Then you need to move on.Strawberrylifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07327298472103196148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6555148914820940850.post-86778732791756504332009-06-18T02:07:20.496-04:002009-06-18T02:07:20.496-04:00Lol. re the bushes. My brother was a gardener for ...Lol. re the bushes. My brother was a gardener for a while and he learnt how to make those twisted trunk little trees and how to shape the tops of them into spheres. He taught my dad how (and btw he's 67..) and one day my dad called me giggling... he'd shaped his own little ball trees and then gone next door to "trim" their place and put their 3 little bushes into spheres. He was so impressed with himself but laughing becuase he'd made their garden look funny. <br />And he actually has a REALLY nice garden, my dad. Lots of vegies out the back and a mini rain forest under a canopy under a couple of palm trees out the front. I think after living in the middle of Australia for 55years where it's really dry he's taking advantage of the tropical coast weather :)<br /><br />So I say, you go girl with the garden. Make little ball trees, or just plant nice things. Is the weather good where you are?<br /><br />Oh,and we just got winter here (it's June, start of winter) and I thought it would never come and then BAM it's rained for a few weeks ... be careful what you wish for!Strawberrylifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07327298472103196148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6555148914820940850.post-16537120861269752842009-06-16T22:55:49.775-04:002009-06-16T22:55:49.775-04:00I completely agree with you AL.

If you guys ever watched the show 'Recess,' there was this one episode relating to this topic. Theres a kid named TJ and everyone loved this kid except for one person. And throughout the whole episode, all you see is TJ trying soo many different things just to get that one guy to like him... and that meant ignoring his friends also. In the end, the guy was like 'i just dont like you.' lol... and so TJ had to deal with the fact that some people just dont like him... <br /><br />dont expect anything from anyone... definitely easier said than doneEmptyWordshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16741830560914953816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6555148914820940850.post-2735254219394546142009-06-15T01:24:39.867-04:002009-06-15T01:24:39.867-04:00So I was going to write something about how "...So I was going to write something about how "I'M BACK and the world is pretty much a better place because of me", but then I read this post about how the world has become so jaded that we shouldn't even expect anything from anyone because the chances are, we'll be disappointed. And what's worst is that, it's just so true. I can't count how many times I've given and given just to not receive anything, and be thoroughly disappointed-in myself, and the other person, but mostly in myself.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6555148914820940850.post-53377085712692442372009-06-14T13:03:45.806-04:002009-06-14T13:03:45.806-04:00As Salaamu Alaikum,

Re not expecting much from othe...Amazing photo!!!!<br /><br />Re not expecting much from others, well, that's kind of how I've been living for the past few years. I can be a total perfectionist like a pain in the butt, and I've had my heart broken for so many times by others, that I decided to stop expecting much from others. I still do them as how I would want them to do to me (as in do good to others as how you want others to do good to you, that kind of thing you know) but I dont expect much.<br /><br />I think it's better that way because the higher you expect from others, the more they will disappoint you. But, if you don't expect anything from them, and when they do something that makes you happy, you'll be truly happy.<br /><br />well, at least i do find that to be true anyway. :)the girl in stilettohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09951433762241491787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6555148914820940850.post-121486651718954602009-06-14T01:18:01.583-04:002009-06-14T01:18:01.583-04:00sigh we have unkempt bushes tooo

Ugh. I'm totally procrastinating.<br /><br />I totally thought it was about a guy! Me and my assumptions, sorry Artistic. Well inshallah it will get easier with friends and acquaintances.<br /><br />It's so weird. My cousin is going to an outdoor pool for her 3 year old's swimming lessons in Rochester, MN. We have 90 degree temps here and half the pools aren't open. But, no problem in Minnesota. 80 sounds so nice and comfy!

And much more exciting than the nice guy whose just okay looking and easy to get. <br /><br />I feel that a really good looking guy whose sometimes better looking than us comes along with the territory in a case like this.<br /><br />And certainly some girls just love the bad guy.<br /><br />The trick is to get out before you are in knee-deep, knowing that the challenge of getting him to meet expectations will just wear on you over time. <br /><br />Th other awesome advice is to foster relationships where the guy loves you more than you love him. Really this is the best advice I've ever been given.<br /><br />Ha ha, your neighbors backyard is why I'm not a huge fan of lawn gardens and growing your own food. Seems like a great place for snakes and lots of scary critters. <br /><br />I also am not good at gardening! And it's impossible in an apt. The Texas heat is way too strong for anything to live right now anyway.<br /><br />This is a weird summer. A lot of our city pools are still closed despite 90 degree temps. I'm wondering when it's going to FEEL like summer, like you it doesn't yet.<br /><br />Love you lots habibty.Yaseminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09511727103777114798noreply@blogger.com
