Hey Tom, Well now that you mention it we do have Voodoo here, and I m very good at it! LOL The spell I would cast for you Tom is one that sees you and happy and smiling with that special person beside you. xx
Yes I too feel like I know you a bit as well and have to admit I was nearly as excited when you uploaded your pic here as I was when True showed us her new face or Ariesram his old one. xx :)
I do think that the ones that really share themselves here do so because they do feel they are among friends.
If you can do this then please cast your spell. My track record shows I need the help:).

Quoting: Originally posted by ariesram Well...after our record breaking 'cam chats', i feel i 'know' you better than some! You're...polite, amusing (but not as funny as me),sexy, naughty (when drunk,haha), easy to talk to (9hr & 8hr & 5hr cam chats)you don't pre judge people, don't hold a grudge, happy, nice to know, and a good friend. So the answer to your question is ...NO! he he!
NO??? Damn, knew those chats were not long enough. LOL
Yes Ariesram you do know me better than some/most. :P
It is always a wonder to me how others see me through their eyes, thank you for letting me see what you see.
I know that this comes from the caring, generous and loving man that I have gotten to know.
Maybe I should hire you to re -write my profile for me?
Now as far as funny goes, well OK you win.....because you Ariesram laugh at your own jokes, and I cant beat that.! LOL xxXXxx

I've found this so true. I know when I'll get honest feed back and from who.
I think that we feel a connection here, not exactly knowing someone though. I still feel that you can say things here that might never be said in person. The safety of the keyboard and screen do wonders for one's ego.
I'm known, by a few close friends, to speak my mind. I do it here as well. Even though there are times, in real life, when I look back and say "I should have said... " not as often as when I was younger though.
OZ, the regular posters know you, the reader only know you as well. You're kind, genuine and forthright. I like the way you think, you come out of left field sometimes which is wonderful. It's the things I'd not thought of and it gives me much food for thought. Just as you said.
Keep going !!
Aimee
Well Aimee if there is one person that I will look for real answers from it is YOU. :)
I too like the way you think, you have many valuable thoughts and I am so glad that you are willing to share them with us all. xx

I notice you always try to be helpful and offer advice to those who have asked for it as well and that is a wonderful quality....keep on blogging OZ! Cuz I will keep on reading and learning.
Kat
Thank you Kat, I am glad that sometimes what I say may just help others.
That is the reason I read the blogs, I get so much from them, they make me look at my points of view and examine them.
Love your comment here, do wish you would post more often. :)

this is a blog and those that participate are those that really care and want to share. Look at most of the blogs and see how many have viewed them, versus just read them and no say a darn word. Some of us have been here for a while, some (like me) for a shorter time, but I will say that there are a few of the constant bloggers that do share their feelings and thoughts. They open up and share. They are willing to share and let others know what their thoughts are. We all learn something new every day and I love reading all the blogs, because they give me new information. They share my thoughts and make me think about a different perspective.
What a shame it would be if there were even fewer people like Oz, Smoosh, truefriendinme, Sparkles, One2One and Tom that are willing to share and give more of themselves. They are the blog community that not only keeps this going, but keeps us on our toes and gives us things to think about.
I think we get close as a community of people that one day can look at each other as friends, not just a face and a smile and words, because we are truthful most of the time and we are not scared to share and not just bash each others comments.
Hugs to those that know me here in Blog Land and Even more to OZ, Your a Wonder and your a "Huge Laugh" as Tom would say!
TT
Hugs back to you TT, I for one have to say that I am glad that you have joined us here and let us get you to know you. xx
Yes this is a close community that welcomes those that want to come in and join us.
So hope it can stay this special place that we can all share.

I do not see you as following the crowd, I see you as trying to be supportive by seeing every point of view. As far as knowing you, yes, I feel that I do. I know you as well as I know someone I was trying to date that I haven't yet talked to on the phone or face to face yet. The reason I say this is because of the way you put so much of yourself into your blogs. If one was to read all your blogs and add to that your profile I think they will see the person you are. I will add that these blogs will not let us get to know others, even the frequent fliers, as True put it because some do not put their hearts into their comments as you do. I, for one, hope to keep seeing your face on every blog, there was times it was you that had the right words for me or you would say something that would trigger someone else to say the thing that helped me. Of course sometimes your words are just words with no meaning at all but you are entitled. Just pickin with you Oz. (Y'all folks in Oz don't do voodoo do you?) I would like to add that from the things you write here I do know that if we lived closer you and I would be friends if not more. Keep blogging all.---Tom

Quoting: Originally posted by ozredhead62 OMG I am speechless!!!! Not a state you will find me in often I have to admit. LOL
This was NOT the intention of this blog....oh how a simple comment can change things.
Really guys I am overwhelmed right now with your kind words and friendship. xxxx
The blogs are a great forum to discuss issues, voice opinions and form friendships.
Just like real life we all can meet someone that we dont for what ever reason like or who doesn't like us. Thats just the way it goes.
Now I think a true test to the person is how they handle this.
We dont always have a choice of who is in our lives right now, but, we do have a choice to our dealings and reactions to them.
These blogs are an open forum and I think we all expose ourselves to the potential of receiving both positive and negative comments.
If you do not like someones blogs dont read them, if someone continues to post on your blog and you dont want them to, then delete their post or block them.
I will continue to blog, as I have and share with the people that I too call my friends, and do hope that these blogs stay the supportive, wise and ever so funny place that I have gotten to know.
I will be replying personally to many of you for you have really touched my heart with your comments and because I CAN, for this is MY blog. lol xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Very nicely done. :) It has your style, heart and grace written all over it. Huge hug (and glittery kiss) S.

Still i suppose they are here for everyones opinion....
Oz you were the first person to reply to my first ever blog and have continued to encourage me and countless others to keep posting...if we never got any replies or comments we would all end up talking to ourselves lol;-)
I do feel i know you and the rest of the gang because of all of your blogs and comments and there has been many a time when the loneliness has been taken away because the blogs are here to read and comment on... Not only that, but look at all the people you draw in??? Simplicity7777 for starters!!! apart from all the usual lovely faces that was a nice new one to make my morning;-)
Seriously though i feel the same as True...your words always seem to be the right ones, whether in agreement, disagreement or ones that just make us smile xxx
Hey Sparkles....watch who your calling OLD. LOL
I feel I know you too, like you, and so enjoy your post that usually in some way make me laugh.
You have a unique sense of humor that just seem to tickle me and I am sure many others in just the right way. :)

Quoting: Originally posted by truefriendinme Ok. Totally gotta forgive my errors here. I'm using a stylus and portable tablet at work. I just HAD to reply.
Oz.... (no offense intended, new bloggers...). Some people are new with only a few posts to claim, as opposed to our few hundred(s). Naturally, new people here aren't as familiar with other bloggers. I do not feel nor proclaim to "really" know ANYONE thru blogs alone. However, I have been on this site long enough and have actively participated in enough of "Oz Initiated" blogs that I feel quite comfortable in knowing (almost!) what to expect from you-- and nearly every one of our frequent fliers. I can always depend on you (and Blue, and Island, and Butterbll, and Sparkles, and so many others that come to mind...)to provide honest feedback. Personally, I feel that nearly all of our regulars try their best to be accepting and understanding. Of course some may percieve our varied and diverse opinions on so many subjects to be "inconsistent", but that is not how I see it. I see your well-thought out and well written blogs and replies that agree with people as being supportive and friendly-- not as "moving with the crowd". I see your DIS-agreements as politely worded and dignified. I, too, see your face in every blog. But to ME, that represents a person genuinely seeking others in friendship. I see MY face in many of the same blogs, and I hope you all see the same in me. I see a woman who, through her blogs, I have come to know better and whom I would feel entirely comfortable with, if we ever happened to cross paths. I feel this way about many of our fellow bloggers. Personally,I feel that passing quick judgement on people in an environment such as this is a clear indication of a character flaw I find reprehensible: intolerance. And to that, all I can say is GOOD LUCK WITH THAT! --Love your blogs, Oz, See you in cyber-space!
--True
OH True, I do so feel that we are a little family of friends here, we learn and grown and sometimes even cry, with all our heart felt emotions.
I love seeing your face in the blogs, nearly as much as mine. (only kidding) lol
I have so enjoyed seeing your NEW face with all the hope and strength that has showed in your words. I feel like someone I care for has started to gain their footing again, ever so tentatively, and I am so happy and excited by it all.
I would be very fortunate to cross paths with you one day. xx
