I pick up so many valuable lessons from these courageous people who shares their innermost in order encourage others who faces life miseries not to give up. this is what i have found most in blogging community, most has its own life story to tell and i'm glad to be part of it.amnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09331372661842820754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6927199606776255610.post-34481041328958346082009-06-10T02:20:52.295-07:002009-06-10T02:20:52.295-07:00My blog will be a year old on June 26th I think an...My blog will be a year old on June 26th I think and although I've been blogging on LJ since May 2004, this has been an interesting ride with many friends jumping on.Joey Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00950833278471728849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6927199606776255610.post-87677148496926655832009-06-10T01:37:28.466-07:002009-06-10T01:37:28.466-07:00Sid,

As yo...It was you Odette that got me into blogging. As you know I don't blog daily but when the fancy hits me. I tend to either educate, inform or entertain. As my genes are not going to be passed on the things I have learned in this life is all the contribution I can make to the future. Perhaps a number of my actions during my life have had consequences that will ripple out for years to time.<br /><br />Many of the things I did was because I was the right person in the wrong place at the right time. Every so often I have to cure people of using the Saint Sid label on me. It would be redundant anyway since Sidney is just a French way of saying Saint Dennis. Also many of the things I did and do that earned me the nickname I owe to my Military training and then my job experience in a pretty dangerous environment to hone those abilities. Having the un-controlable urge to always study everything tends to add to the "myth" as well. Working on 6 languages in a town were most find the second compulsory high school language their hardest subject gets me regarded oddly.<br /><br />Some people who read my ramblings have been urging me to put things into book form. So for now the blogging is great for getting me to let things flow out for practice.<br /><br />With a book I would have to stay on topic. Blogging I can jump all over the place and eventually gather the related material together with thoughts and research already down in black and white.Sid Brechinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00861501123102122129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6927199606776255610.post-29979403315682393582009-06-09T17:27:46.054-07:002009-06-09T17:27:46.054-07:00What a nice post, Odette.
