But i left with a boyfriend and we were going to have some help from his brother...you were young, naive and brave. But youth is when you challenge yourself...when we get older we get set in our ways...or maybe just too much responsibility abounds!<BR/><BR/>Love the pigges...Honor the Swine!!Lulda Casadagahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02508948508691985244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784042461030289587.post-27776158588303027212008-12-11T17:10:00.000+01:002008-12-11T17:10:00.000+01:00Hilary, I always enjoy when you stop by, your comm...Hilary, I always enjoy when you stop by, your comments mean a lot to me. <BR/>I still do not think I am gutsy though, probably just very naive at times.;) And lucky!<BR/>I love the fact that someone like you can find inspiration in what I write, thank you so much, it warms my heart.;)Zuzanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02137958790178864561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784042461030289587.post-71880468806626411462008-12-11T15:56:00.000+01:002008-12-11T15:56:00.000+01:00You're a gutsy one.. no doubt about that.

And yes, it was a bit daring to leave home with only two small suitcases and just a pocket change, but I think I was very young and a great idealist, which helped. And then I was also very lucky to meet kind and generous people.<BR/><BR/>Hello Culture Creators and thank you for stopping by; yes, it is amazing how small objects can tie us to a place in space and time.<BR/><BR/>Mel, your stories are even better, I always enjoy reading anything you have to say. And I agree, I think the piggies are adorable.;)<BR/><BR/>Michelle, you got it, we have all the spices, we just have to use them. Some of us forget that at times, me included.;)<BR/><BR/>Holly, I am not that brave, I am scared just like everyone else. But I think when I was young, I was more ignorant and appeared a bit more brave.;) I would not do this today, to be honest. And additionally, I found -and to this day I find- great inspiration in my parents who were never afraid of changes or challenges.<BR/>And than you for your compliment, it means a lot to me.;))Zuzanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02137958790178864561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784042461030289587.post-89345810785039489512008-12-11T02:36:00.000+01:002008-12-11T02:36:00.000+01:00I love this story.

It is what you make it out to be i.e. you plan your life( though, God decides) If we are fortunate we may be given a second chance which we should be very grateful and not mess again. Now is the best time ever to 'spice' our life. I am amazed how you dared leaving home with $300 in your pocket.Incredible. Your story here is very touching. We all have our setbacks and as usual life goes on. I appreciate you sharing us a personal story.Mahmud Yussophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12014584046024863994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784042461030289587.post-17238349708762204312008-12-10T13:16:00.000+01:002008-12-10T13:16:00.000+01:00I do love the way you think.
