“But let there be spaces in your togetherness and let the winds of the heavens dance between you.
Lavergne comments on Jun 3, 2018:
Beautiful.....thanks for sharing.
I was flirting with a girl in a bar last night when she told me to not waste my breath, I would need...
Lavergne comments on Jun 3, 2018:
OMG.....that is a hilarious line. Having said that, I would also ask - what was the tone? Could you tell if she was being a rude bitch....or does she just have a somewhat dark (sarcastic) sense of humor and was just messing with you. This insane world we live in has made us all a little thin skinned - sometimes we take something as offensive when no offense was meant at all.
"I'm seemingly sentenced to solitary singleness.
Lavergne comments on Jun 3, 2018:
I have long thought that all relationships have an expiration date......a lot of couples reach that date but for a variety of reasons prefer to simply continue to co-exist and keep the status quo. Others, having realized that they no longer get much of anything out of the relationship, decide to move on.....make a break for it....with varying degrees of success. Society has conditioned us to believe that if we are not part of a couple - well then, something must be terribly wrong with us. I realized many years ago that some people just run better in tandem....others keep getting tangled up in the reins and just need to be singletons. In the end, we all just need to be true to ourselves.
I know that we're all just a bunch of profile pics, posts, and comments, but there are a few people ...
Lavergne comments on Jun 2, 2018:
Yes....I have experienced that same feeling...
Anybody watch "Leah Remini, Scientology and the Aftermath"?
Lavergne comments on May 29, 2018:
Yes - the show is great and I hope they continue to chip away at the whole scientology bag of crap. They are no better than any of the Jim Jones types of cults - only difference is they have managed to accumulate so much wealth and with that wealth comes power and access to the type of people who can give them a great deal of cover and protection. Really do feel sorry for the kids caught up in this....

Lavergne comments on May 27, 2018:
You make a lot of compelling points.....as someone who has had "tall, dark and handsome", I can attest to the fact that sometimes that lovely wrapper simply serves as a distraction from the traits and qualities that are not so lovely (Bipolar Personality Disorder for starters). Relationships....like life itself....are complicated. And - if you're doing it right - living your life as best you can - you will be constantly growing and evolving which can result in your "perfect match" becoming less and less so as time goes on. What's that old saying...."ya pays ya money and ya takes ya chances". ;) ;)
Just wanted to share this- apologies to those who already know it, but it resonated well with me.
Lavergne comments on May 26, 2018:
That is really beautiful.... thanks for sharing.
In 1918 the top tax bracket was 77%, in the Depression Years it was 63% for the Elites and during ...
Lavergne comments on May 22, 2018:
As long as politicians can stand up and talk about all those "cadillac welfare queens", etc etc....it is easy to sway the opinions of the under informed masses to believe that the only problem this country has is too many "lazy" people not wanting to work for a living and wanting a cradle to grave gov't welfare state. Not saying there aren't those out there for whom the shoe fits - but a society is only as strong as its working class - and that class is disappearing year by year. Those who used to count themselves as lower middle income are now part of the working poor....and those who manage to do a little better inch closer to upper income levels. The tiny slice left in the middle is groaning under the weight of trying to support both ends......don't tell me how grateful I should be because I'm getting $5.00 more on each paycheck now - and spending $10 more on each tankful of gas....and watching grocery prices rise every single week. Classic bait and switch.... :(
If I see one more thoughts and prayers re gun violence/murder in these new knighted states, I may ...
Lavergne comments on May 19, 2018:
I totally agree with you.....and I'm sick and tired of hearing how regulating guns is not the answer to the problem. No one is stupid enough to think just banning assault weapons will be the "fix".....but for crying out loud - can't we just acknowledge that it could be the "first step"? It will take a concerted effort on the local, state and national levels but looking for that "one size fits all".....or nothing approach? Just lazy....and the perfect excuse to do nothing. And, of course, why would they want to bite the hand that feeds them? This current congress is comprised of some of the most disgraceful bunch of whores I've ever seen. IMHO.
The perfect catch?
Lavergne comments on May 19, 2018:
I agree with you completely...when I was a little girl, my mom told me not to worry too much about being beautiful because beauty fades. Instead, be interesting, compassionate, funny....
Ladies, how were you proposed to ? Was it what you expected ?
Lavergne comments on May 19, 2018:
I was taken to dinner for my birthday - to a restaurant that used to be an old church so it was quite beautiful - all the stained glass windows, etc etc. After we were seated, the waiter came to take our drink orders and when he returned with our drinks, he set a saucer and inverted cup in front of me. As I lifted the cup, I saw the velvet ring box....the rest is history. P.S. My husband later admitted that he has never been so nervous in his whole life as when he gave that ring to a total stranger (the waiter) and hoped to hell the guy wouldn't slip out the backdoor and make a run for it.... hahahahahaha
If a man says you're hot, that's not a compliment.
Lavergne comments on May 19, 2018:
There are no "right" or "wrong" answers....every individual reacts differently to the things that are said to them. One woman's compliment is another woman's insult....sounds like we all need to be a little more open minded - maybe? ;) ;)
I am retired and live in a rural area of central texas.
Lavergne comments on May 18, 2018:
Don't go to the trouble of moving....that will not solve the problem. We live in the plateau in Tennessee and it's exactly the same way up here. Politically conservative, more churches than you can shake a stick at. People here are "friendly" but in a superficial sort of way - everyone tends to keep to themselves. That can be either good or bad - depending on how much privacy and/or interaction you personally enjoy.
If a man says you're hot, that's not a compliment.
Lavergne comments on May 18, 2018:
I'll probably catch flack for this - but: it seems as tho the women who feel they're being insulted or objectified if a guy tells them they're "hot" are the same ones who make themselves look as "hot" as they can and then get upset when guys wolf whistle as they pass by. Really? I understand that we all do what we can to look as attractive as possible - for a multiple of reasons.....all of which go back to the issue of satisfying our own ego. A little sense of humor might go a long way - maybe don't attach so much significance to each and every "word" and try to think about the intent instead.....one man's "hot" might just mean the same as another man's "ravishing"....or "sexy"....or "beautiful". Just seems like we've got a whole lot more important things to get worked up over...just sayin'
Why do men think that they should be with younger women?
Lavergne comments on May 14, 2018:
Age truly is just a number....having said that, I would say that men enjoy being in the company of attractive women. Younger women tend to have a slight edge in that department (not always, but we're speaking very generally here) so its not surprising that men are drawn to younger women. And if the woman in question is a real "head turner" - well, there's nothing that stokes a man's ego better than that. It's not fair....but it is what it is. ;)
CRYING! What has made you cry as an adult?
Lavergne comments on May 8, 2018:
The deaths of my pets - all of whom had grown quite old with me....its heartbreaking to lose them and is a reminder that we are all just passing thru....makes you have to think about your own mortality.
FEARLESS LEADER ALERT Our beloved Fearless Fuhrer today pulled us out of the Iran Agreement.
Lavergne comments on May 8, 2018:
P.S. Am I the only one who thinks that the man in the oval office is engaging in a form of insider trading? He makes a comment, the media covers it - the stock market plunges - I'm sure his companies and his cronies are busy buying on the drop - 24 or 48 hrs later he tweets another batch of crap - the market skyrockets - aforementioned people all sell and the cycle just keeps repeating itself. A very small handful of people (and corporations) are probably making a killing while the average, poor shmuck looks at his 401(k) and wonders how long it will be before that little upward tick gets wiped out by the next bear market. ????
FEARLESS LEADER ALERT Our beloved Fearless Fuhrer today pulled us out of the Iran Agreement.
Lavergne comments on May 8, 2018:
Just bear in mind that everything he does is for effect - the shock value.....having said that, I predict that he will use that 6 month withdrawal window to made a few demands that will probably be agreed to by Iran (probably nothing more than they have signed up for already) and he will stand up in front of the microphone and shout to the world that HE is the greatest dealmaker in the world and look at the MAGNIFICIENT deal he and only he has been able to achieve. Everything he has done - to date - is more about negating something that has Obama's name on it - some of which ends up being reinstated so that he can then claim credit for it..... And - sadly - he and his mignons have made a mockery of whatever it is his wife is attempting to do by having her staff literally steal stuff that Michelle Obama said and did - I don't know if they think we are all so stupid we won't figure it out - or if its more about making her look stupid because he can't stand anyone to steal his thunder - including his wife.
This shit, is really fun.
Lavergne comments on Apr 25, 2018:
Welcome to this site where you can say whatever you think and/or feel without being judged. Some people will agree with you - some will not - but its great to hear everyone's point of view.
Don't you hate it when they kill an animal in a movie and it's not necessary for the story?
Lavergne comments on Apr 25, 2018:
I completely agree with you.....having had cats and dogs over the years and having had to ultimately deal with losing them, it breaks my heart everytime I see the senseless killing of an animal in a movie. It seems the older I get, the less I like people and the more I love animals.... Hollywood should stick to just killing the people - not the animals.
A man sees a woman he's attracted to when out shopping.
Lavergne comments on Apr 23, 2018:
So lets flip that script and hear from some guys.....how would you react if a woman (total stranger) came up to you and indicated an interest in you? Be honest now.... ;)
Well this pretty much says it all, doesn't it?
Lavergne comments on Apr 23, 2018:
Both statements can - and are - true....
I am reading “The Art of Happiness” and came across something funny.
Lavergne comments on Apr 22, 2018:
No one likes being the one left behind in the dust....when your spouse dumps you for reasons you may not even be able to comprehend, it seems to help some of them to start "The List". As time goes on, the list becomes longer and longer until one day a therapist (or perhaps a good friend) points out to them that if all of those grievances are valid, then perhaps he or she dodged a bullet. ;)
A man sees a woman he's attracted to when out shopping.
Lavergne comments on Apr 22, 2018:
I think I would have to ask this man "why"....because I would be genuinely interested in what prompts feelings like that in any human being. Is it simply that she has a certain "look" that appeals to him? Is he picking up some sort of vibe that makes him think she just might be "the one"....It's an interesting question.
Curious - worst break up line you ever heard? I'll start. "I'm bored with you."

Why Are We Constantly Waiting On Time To Pass ?
Lavergne comments on Apr 19, 2018:
I have a friend who used to moan and groan when each holiday season would approach - her favorite line was always "If I can just get through all of this".....everything was just so stressful for her - she couldn't wait for it to all be over and done. A few years ago her husband committed suicide - and her son is busy with his own family so her holidays now are very, very quiet....and lonely. Truly a case of be careful what you wish for.
In what way(s) has your cat trained you?
Lavergne comments on Apr 19, 2018:
P.S. Years ago I had a little grey tabby inside/outside cat - I would let her out in the evenings and tell her to be home by 10. Believe it or not - that cat would show up at 10 pawing at the door ready to come in.....??????
In what way(s) has your cat trained you?
Lavergne comments on Apr 19, 2018:
I've had cats all of my life - the last two were lynx marked Himalayans - spoiled beyond belief and I plead guilty on all counts. Haven't gone into the bathroom by myself in years...hahaha. My daily routine is dictated by making sure that all the cats - inside and out - are fed and tended to before anything else gets done. Little Tess has just hit her 20th birthday - she does whatever the hell she pleases and I'm perfectly fine with that. Some day I will be a very, very old girl - just like her - and I hope the people around me will allow me that same consideration.
OKAY.
Lavergne comments on Apr 18, 2018:
Sometimes the person who has to constantly prove you wrong does so because they were constantly told by someone else in their past (parent ? teachers ? significant others ?) that they were wrong about pretty much everything. At some point they begin to believe that they can only validate themselves by diminishing you. Its easy enough to just disregard people like that unless they are your spouse or significant other - or your boss - in which case you have some decisions to make. Your last sentence is insightful....
Are you all ready for April 23rd??? And you thought TAX DAY was stressful. :P [patheos.com]
Lavergne comments on Apr 18, 2018:
The world is ending....again? seriously? hahaha
What do you think are the 5 most beautiful things in the world and why?
Lavergne comments on Apr 18, 2018:
A baby's laugh.... That "flush of color" in spring when all your hard work in the garden last fall really pays off.... The contented sighs and sounds that your cats and dogs make that let you know how happy they are.... Sitting on a beach at sunset... Enjoying the first fire of the winter while watching the snow fall...
What is your favorite cocktail? If it's obscure, please share the recipe!
Lavergne comments on Apr 17, 2018:
discovered Negronis a few years ago - I modified the original recipe a little because the Campari is extremely tart/bitter. I use 2 oz of gin (vodka is ok too but I think the gin gives a better tasting Negroni) to 1 oz of sweet vermouth and then just a tablespoon of the Campari. Shake it real good so its ice cold - garnish with a slice of orange and enjoy. yum. ;)
With all the progress in science to explain our universe why do you think people continue to cling ...
Lavergne comments on Apr 17, 2018:
Because believing in science means you have to accept responsibility for the choices and decisions you make - even the ones that turn out to be less than stellar.....on the other hand, if you can say everything is "God's will" then it absolves you of any personal responsibility and I hate to say it - but there are a LOT of people out there that are just perfectly fine with that concept.
69 Visitors and no one says 'hello'
Lavergne comments on Apr 15, 2018:
Hello....welcome to the site. I'm sure you will make friends....just takes a little while.
If they put pictures of missing kids on beer instead of milk, we'd probably find them in about 20 ...

Some years, when I'm doing my taxes, I think prison might be easier.

How many of you older people listen to current pop music, or is it only "noise" to you?
Lavergne comments on Apr 15, 2018:
I listen to some of the current stuff - some I like - some not so much. Never could get into rap. But I kinda know what you're saying - in younger years, I could not drive anywhere without the radio playing. These days, I only turn it on if I'm on a long road trip. I think the music of the 80's was the best.....and I will freely admit to being older than dirt. hahaha ;)
Profile questions - relationship status - too ambiguous for some of us?
Lavergne comments on Apr 15, 2018:
I agree....the standard profile questions don't really shed much light on who you are and what really makes you tick. It does seem harder these days to just make friends - I suppose people think their lives are so busy they need to just go from "Hi, how are you" to hookups and/or relationships in the blink of an eye. I think people forget sometimes that while its nice to have a special someone in your life, its equally nice to have friends who can, indeed, just hang out.
Well all, I done went and done it.
Lavergne comments on Apr 15, 2018:
Congratulations - you've got a lot to be proud of. And all the kudos go to YOU.....lots to be said for that circle of friends and family that lend the emotional support, but in the end - you are the one that made it happen. ;)
Hi everyone.
Lavergne comments on Apr 14, 2018:
Welcome....I'm sure you'll find people on this site who are interesting and more than willing to be a friend. Time heals all wounds (and wounds all heels) so just take one day at the time and stay open to all the wonderful possibilities that are out there. It seems to me that people find what (whom) they need when they are not particularly looking. ;)
Dating after 50
Lavergne comments on Apr 14, 2018:
I think you are 100% correct in your observations. I've often said the same thing about the gay friend - that really would be ideal. ;) Sad to say, women over 50 do have a hard time because men that age are all looking for 35 yr old women. I don't blame them - I'm sure having a younger, attractive, vivacious partner at that time in their lives puts a little spring in their step....just kinda sad that a 50 year old woman gets called a cougar and mocked if she ends up dating a 35 yr old man. The more things change......the more they stay the same.
Why do women always look at the appearance of a man more so than at his heart?
Lavergne comments on Apr 13, 2018:
Most of the women I have known over the years didn't put looks as the highest priority - after they got past their high school years, anyway. I certainly have known many men who do the same thing though - I suppose in an ideal world, we would all try harder to see past the surface to determine what makes an individual tick.
Follow up to "A Major Milestone" post.
Lavergne comments on Apr 9, 2018:
A comment like that can certainly go either way.....on a dinner date I had with a dating site guy - meeting each other for the first time - he said to me "If you don't mind me saying, your pictures don't do you justice". I did take that as a compliment. I can certainly see how you felt given the way your date phrased it - maybe he's just not good at expressing himself - a little foot in mouth syndrome? In the end though, you just need to trust your instincts.....
Hello all you thinkers out there.
Lavergne comments on Apr 8, 2018:
Very well said. I'm enjoying this site because I spent my entire working life being the "token" tree hugging, granola crunching, birkenstock wearing liberal in an office (and family) full of rabid republicans. I didn't dare tell anyone that I also was not into their version of "christianity" - no telling what the retribution for that would have been! ;) So now I'm retired - keep more to myself these days and finally fell free to be...just me.
The site is growing, rapidly.
Lavergne comments on Apr 8, 2018:
More random thoughts about the whole dating site thing.... The majority of men on there (at that time anyway) were saying they were looking for a woman who loved the outdoors - hiking, camping, fishing, hunting, etc etc. To me - It begged the question - do you think their first (or other) relationships tanked because they spent too much time indulging their passion for the great outdoors? So one evening - after a particularly frustrating day, I responded to that by saying that in my younger years, I did it all - camping every weekend, etc - but at this point in my life, the only hiking I do is the half mile walk to my mailbox, the only camping I want to do is at the Hilton Garden Inn, and as for fishing - hmmmmm - maybe fishing for compliments? Obviously meant to be funny - equally obvious was how many guys have no sense of humor. ;) ;)
The site is growing, rapidly.
Lavergne comments on Apr 7, 2018:
Was on a dating site for a little while a couple of years ago - saw lots of "older" men who would say they were looking for a woman who looked as good in her little black dress as she did in her skinny jeans. ?????? WTH? I could have understood it if any of them looked like George Clooney.....was pretty funny, actually. I had a hard time creating a profile - humor, like many other things, is in the eye (and ear) of the beholder and I think some guys just didn't know what to make of me. ;) But my biggest complaint was about the flat out lying - and the number of "scammers" that were on those sites.
Hello, I'm new here.
Lavergne comments on Apr 7, 2018:
Spent my first grade in a Catholic school.....was TERRIFIED of the nuns. They told us about spanking machines in the basement if we misbehaved in any way. I turned to say something to the kid sitting in the desk behind me and was told to sit in the trash can beside Sister Mary Catherine's desk and if she saw me cry, she would have me thrown out with the day's trash. BTW - I was 5.
Has anyone here started to lead a simpler life and decided to purge many of the things you have ...
Lavergne comments on Apr 7, 2018:
Yes - I do an annual purge of my things and household things.....hubby is still a bit "retentive" so I haven't been able to make much of a dent in his things. ;) When my parents passed and my brother and I had to empty out their condo in preparation for listing it we both realized that one day someone would be doing that with all of our "stuff"......was kind of an "aha" moment for me. Getting there - but still have a ways to go....
What did everyone put for the 'certain' there is no God question?
Lavergne comments on Apr 3, 2018:
I think that question has as many answers as the people responding to it....some feel quite certain about things that can not be proved or disproved. Others tend to be a little more fluid. Most people I've talked with admitted that over the years their opinions have changed - sometimes just a little, sometimes a lot. Personally, I can imagine a scenario where some entity (life force?) could push the button, so to speak, which starts the chain of events we refer to as evolution. No either/or - the two theories can both simultaneously exist. One thing I'm quite sure of - IF there was some sort of creator who started all this - he/she/it "left the building" a really long time ago. ;) ;)
Are others here experiencing a fierce need to reconnect with nature as spring approaches more and ...
Lavergne comments on Apr 1, 2018:
YES! I live in the mountains in TN and we have 4 distinct seasons....I love that -- even tho my relatives constantly bug me with reports of their sunny breezy warm FL winter days....they just don't get the fact that I feel truly alive when spring actually arrives and everything I did the previous fall blooms in all of its glory. Delayed gratification - totally.
Are You Lonely?
Lavergne comments on Mar 30, 2018:
Very well articulated....for me it would probably be more cultural - not so much loneliness - maybe more "isolation". I spent 25 years working in an office full of not just republicans - but RABID republicans - who teased and referrred to me as "our token tree hugging, granola crunching, birkenstock wearing liberal". Needless to say, I developed a very thick skin. Add that to the fact that every member of my family hates democrats, liberals, etc etc - you can see where I had to learn to either just let it roll off and keep quiet - or spend my entire life endlessly arguing with everyone. Life is just too short for that. ;) ;)
Breaking News: An Italian journalist and athiest, who struck up a friendship with the Pope, has ...
Lavergne comments on Mar 30, 2018:
OMG - that's hilarious. All you have to do is look around and see the people who are suffering - in constant pain - physically and/or emotionally to realize that hell is right here....right now...for some people.
Need honest Female perspective
Lavergne comments on Mar 21, 2018:
If a woman enjoys it - she shouldn't be made to feel ashamed of that. Personally, I've never really felt comfortable watching other people engage in sexual activities and I don't particularly like the current trend in TV shows and movies that are so sexually explicit. I've always been pretty liberated and open minded about sex - but some things are just better left to one's imagination, I think. ;)
Crucifixion So the kids and I were talking about religion in the car and crucifixion in ...
Lavergne comments on Mar 21, 2018:
I've always said that the most heinous atrocities have been committed in the name of one religion or another....and the fact that instead of recoiling from the horror of it all (burning people at the stake, watching lions rip christians apart, etc etc) people showed up and cheered and had themselves a great old time. I suspect the human species is not nearly as evolved as we like to think we are.
Who isn't on medications here?
Lavergne comments on Mar 18, 2018:
No meds.....have always said you can either spend your money in the grocery store (eat really well, etc) or you can give it to a doctor. Am 70 now - no hypertension, no diabetes, no arthritis, etc etc. Good genes help....the joke in our family was that we came from hearty peasant stock. :)
Wow.
Lavergne comments on Mar 17, 2018:
Welcome to the site.....from what I can tell is is pretty much a "safe space" where anyone can voice their opinions about most anything without being told they are a) wrong b) ill informed c) stupid d) all of the above. Sometimes all we need is to just be able to vent about something.....and if one or two people out there actually agree with you - well so much the better! ;)
This last weekend I went back home to bury a very close family friend.
Lavergne comments on Mar 16, 2018:
I stopped going to funerals and/or memorial services for that very reason. I've always felt that any kind of service should be a positive, joyful tribute and/or testimonial to that person's life. Not a chance to show the world what a good, religious person you are. Of all the human failings I can think of I believe hypocrisy is one of the worst - and it seems to be in abundance everywhere, including funerals. The last one I "skipped" was for a long time friend - a man who professed to be a devout Catholic - but yet committed suicide.....a sin according to that religion but they (reluctantly) buried him in the family's parish cemetary anyway - one of the nuns took that opportunity to severely lecture his widow about his transgression causing her to faint dead away. ?????? It still makes me shake my head when I think about that whole dog and pony show.
What if you are wrong and there IS a god
Lavergne comments on Mar 14, 2018:
Perhaps you can remind people who talk to you like that their God is supposed to be a forgiving and loving one.....therefore, no one - in theory - should end up in hell. ;)
So.
Lavergne comments on Mar 14, 2018:
Don't let the "praise be to God" people get to you - I've often said isn't it amazing that when bad stuff happens their God is just "testing them" and they chalk it up to "God's will"....like it had nothing whatsoever to do with their decisions and their life choices. However, they can turn on a dime and talk about how we were supposedly given "free will"....which sounds to me like they have given themselves the perfect cop out for pretty much anything. Stephen Hawking was told in his 20's that he had about 2 years to live....I think it is a testament to his intellectual prowess and curiousity and amazing strength of will that kept him moving forward day after day to the age of 76. He will certainly be missed....
My desire to travel is kicking in again. I would love to go somewhere by railroad. Suggestions?
Lavergne comments on Mar 12, 2018:
A coworker of mine took a train trip through a portion of Canada.....she said it was absolutely amazing. I would like to do that one day, too.
How many of you have traveled abroad, and if so, what are a few of your top favorite countries, and ...
Lavergne comments on Mar 12, 2018:
My husband traveled to Japan on business and was completely blown away by how courteous, helpful and friendly the people were. We have also been to Spain, Portugal, Mexico, Jamaica - we've never had any negative experiences whatsoever. The people could not have been nicer to us...
What is the sweetest thing you can say to a woman?
Lavergne comments on Mar 12, 2018:
Your question made me think about the things men have said to me over the years......and the first one that popped into my head was how my youngest son always says "Hi beautiful" when he texts or calls me. We both know it is a "silly" little thing - but it never fails to put a smile on my face.
It has been a very gloomy birthday.
Lavergne comments on Mar 11, 2018:
My mother told me that her 60th birthday was a very difficult and depressing one for her and so as I approached my 60th, I wondered if I would feel the same way. I did not - 60 turned out to be just another number.....BUT as I approached 70, I began to realize what she was talking about. I think its a different number for each of us - but at some point the realization that 30 year mortgages and buying really good shoes so they will "last" becomes sort of a sad joke. It made me think a lot about my past - the good and the bad - and I realized that I had been fortunate enough to experience a very wide variety of things - have traveled and visited a lot of places and mets lots of interesting people along the way. We have been conditioned to think that each and every day must be the "best one ever"....I now realize that some days are just "okay"......and that's OK! We don't necessarily need to always be searching for happiness in order to be content. Try to stay in the moment and remember that you are part of a very large "club" whose theme song is What's It All About, Alfie? ;) ;)
