In my life it seems that balance has been rare. Balance to me has been much like a pendulum swing.There's a moment when the pendulum is centered at the bottom. unfortunately ~ it is rapidly on it's way to the other side.
Beach, it is very important that you and I both define the important things in our lives. I need to exorcise and spend time with my "baby girl", For one. I can't let anything stop that routine,......If a habit, compulsion, or a web forum, starts to eclipse anything important......your economics, .........your investment in this girl. If we could figuratively ~ see the cost, of our misdirected time. It would be staggering. I know for me It would encompass well into six figures in just economics alone.
It is staggering, In other areas?.........we can not afford it. Things we would never consider "for sale".

Beach, your writing gift, an absolute gift from god. It is a huge thing in you. You continue to invest there. It Is sure to become a tremendous treasure. Have you considered this? Start making investments here at a professional level. Don't know what your going to do with it? That's not your problem ~ it's "The Old Man's".

If the two of you had a spark ~ Find It ~ .
Invest in your girl. It is common to lose sight of the spark you had - research is rarely done, by our selves, to see why. I don't know your situation, but some People split and say "she's a bitch". and they don't know........ that she is ......of their design..any excuse will do, and a huge opportunity is lost..... Both lose.

The difference here, real quick. When a relationship is easy, that's great and that's cool.....alright? But, when the spark is very low. Liston to this When it's easy the return could be 10-12%, but when things look shot...... to turn and make investments there would yield - 30, 40%? Loose the bong awhile, get you ass a way from this screen, take a look at this chick that you said you loved, spend time, make investments encourage, love. ....man, You would have something you could not have with anyone else. The yield is totally different. It would be hard to have what the two of you could enjoy together,with another. It would require going thru another hard season with this other person. A crazy cycle, many are in.

Put down the Bong, Get your ass out from behind this screen. Just see what short term investment will yield. Talk to her about future stuff, plans,
Ok, that kind of offends me.

First of all, bongs deplete the active cannabinoids. Secondly, I smoke one hit at a time and it doesn't interfere, time-wise, with anything.

Third of all, (well, I'm not sure what to put next, but, here it goes) she's only someone who'll protect me from harm, not, someone who'll provoke me to do better.

Fourth of all, do you get what I mean?

Fifth of all, is your left East and your right West while you sit at the computer? (It's been bothering me for a while... :stoned: )

Sixth of all, do you like an apple better than a pear?
