Hippie's Words Of Wisdom
Well up until about 10 minutes ago I was stumped as to what I was going
to
write about...but thanks to a wonderful little show just put on in
the
tiki... I have a subject.
K..here goes people. Head Games.
Why do people insist on playing them? Who really benefits from the?
Not the
person playing them and certainly not the person who is the victim
of them.
This is my question for those that play the games...
Does it make you feel like a better person to know that you have driven
someone to the point of tears with your little games? Do you feel better
when you go to sleep at night and can think about them sitting at home
wondering what they did to deserve it?... Or better yet does it give
you
some warped and demented sense of power ?
And how about those of you that sign in under one name and do something
and
then come in under another name to view your handy work?.. What is
up with
that?
Are you not capable of facing up to what you did? Or is it that you
want to
actually see what you have done for yourself, you don't want to have
to hear
it from someone else?
You know why I think you play head games....
Because I think you are scared that if people see you for what you really
are, they won't like you . You think that playing these little games
is
going to get you somewhere and that in the end the jokes on them because
it
wasn't really you all along it was just who you were pretending to
be.
Tell you what...you want to play....go back to kindergarten.
You want to pretend...get an imaginary friend.
But if you want to make friends...the kind that are there for you no
matter
what, the ones who will get up at 2:30 in the morning and come get
you
because you are too damn drunk to drive yourself home, the ones who
will
give you their last $20 dollars because you are broke and they weren't
going
to use it any way, and the ones who just send you a card out of the
blue and
say thanks for being you...if you want to have friends like that be
yourself.
Other wise....you'll never be more than a figment in your own imagination.
And when it comes to the head games...well the ultimate loser in it
all is
you.
You lose out on having someone there for you that really wanted to
be your
friend.
A friend:
(A)ccepts you as you are
(B)elieves in "you"
(C)alls
you just to say "HI"
(D) Doesn't give up on you
(E)nvisions the whole of you (even the
unfinished parts)
(F)orgives your mistakes
(G)ives unconditionally
(H)elps you
(I)nvites you over
(J)ust "be" with you
(K)eeps you close at heart
(L)oves you for who you are
(M)akes a difference in your life
(N)ever Judges
(O)ffers support
(P)icks you up
(Q)uiets your fears
(R)aises your spirits
(S)ays nice things about you
(T)ells you the truth when you need to hear it
(U)nderstands you
(V)alues you
(W)alks beside you
(x) explains things you
don't understand
(Y)ells when you won't listen and
(Z)aps you back to reality
"Flexible people don't get bent out of shape."

sent in by bs,...........huggles gf i couldnt have said it better
~Imagine~
Close your eyes tight and imagine if you will
The stars in the sky from atop a hill
You are not alone, I am there with you
By your
side no matter what we'll see it through
Take comfort
in knowing we are under the same sky
If needed I am there in the blink of an eye
So close your eyes and imagine if you will
You are never alone atop that hill

To those of you special people (and you know who you are)....
Perhaps this isn't the place to
do it...and perhaps not the time, but I feel as though something needs
to be said. There was a point in my life that I thought perhaps
it was time to just let go...and let life win. I was ready to give
up on everything...online.....everything. Then, my friend,
Temptress_Night (while simultaneously yelling at me for even thinking
what I was thinking) told me to come to the Tiki. So I did. It's a
decision I have never regretted.
You regs in the Tiki come from so many
different worlds..and so many different lives, all meeting in one
room, to touch for maybe just a moment. And you probably never
think...of how profoundly you might affect that one on the other end
of the line. But you do...each in your special way. And I thank
you for allowing me to be a part of such an elite group as
yourselves. Doesn't matter how bad a day I've had.....all I need to
do is pop in and almost instantly....I'm feeling better.
So for that.....I thank you.

The Outer Deception
Shrouded in denial, corrupted by deceit,
I futily ignore my evident defeat.
Touches of loved ones, family, and friends
Become colder and more distant as the days end.
And every day, a smile a promote,
While pushing them away and constructing my moat.
I wont let them see me...no, not at a time like this.
No one may see, the inside distress.
Pain fuels the fire that wells up inside,
And anger releases it with it's forceful tide.
And if I could imagine that anyone could understand,
Maybe I would accept interventions outstretched hand.
But no one can. I can't let them see.
For if they saw it, they may start to know me.
And though I am human, I won't let them know,
Because judgment is swift if imperfection is shown.
So a shell of the former is all that remains,
For my life's essence, from me is been drained.
annonymous..........
Well as most of you know i have been a tiki 1 reg for some time but
i
haven't been in much not because of any certain person or what was
being said about me that is just words that no one really knows about
but many seem to think they do but anyways ...I am here to address
something that bothers me alot and i know of a few more that it bothers
....This things being the name game people coming into the tiki under
different names and then expecting us to guess who they are, or if
we
ask "do we know you under a different name" their response is "i am
no
one important or maybe" well if you can't tell me who you are then
don't expect me to play the name game cuz your wasting my chat time
plus i don't like to play games like that..Although most of the time
we
can figure out who we are talking too but that is beside the
point..This was not written to piss anyone off i just figured i would
give my opinion about the NAME GAME that i really don't care about
so
with that i will be quiet and slowly slide outta email and close this
for now..
