The Fantasy Vs. The Reality

I don't know why I feel guilty but I just do. I guess cos society has so many expectations for how we should be.

In any case I experienced what it is like to have a puppy for an hour...and despite how cute they are and how much I like to look at them...they're just like babies...alot of work, commitment and ENERGY required!

Maybe Free Spirits just can't be tied down by ANYTHING less than amazing.

an hour? that's fun. I'm tempted to call you a wimp. but I won't. I don't know if I'd like a puppy for an hour - I probably wouldn't.
And as far as the 'shoulds' go - I vote 'screw the shoulds!' in fact I'm about to do just that any second now.

i think god made man in variation. and I wasn't gifted with the nurturing responsible look after and mummy vibes...I guess that is why I got stuck with being a healer...lol

Seriously, me too.
And so many folks don't get that I'm serious when I say I'm not making babies.

I can appreciate everyone _else's_ babies, including the ones I step-parent. I don't need to contribute to our already over-populated world just because my genes are AWESOME.
;)

Sheesh.

puppies ARE amazing...I dont feel as if animals tie me down...quite the opposite. I take pepper everywhere with me.

Kids on the other hand...
