a CLICK of a mouse

that opens many doors and windows to ones soul

How do I measure up? I guess YOU will be my judge and jury on that one. If you have come to this page you are more adventurous, curious and excited by meeting people than most :)

What are we all searching for?

What is the perfect life?

Many friends or special friends?

Good family relations?

Special faith relationship?

What are we really striving towards or for?

There are many statements that how we feel or can achieve is entirely up to us. The theory goes that outside influences can not affect us if we do not allow them to. I believe that this is only true for a person if they have closed off most all feelings and love for others.

A teacher from my younger days (so much time ago ), taught that as you look into the mirror each morning, remember to look inside. She taught that you should discover yourself and get to know yourself well in order to relate with others. It also follows the theory you need to be able to love yourself in order to love others.

I am simply looking to be a friend and you to be a friend in return. I am looking to have lovingkindness fun being friends. I like being goofy and goof around with my female friends. My day is made whenever my friends tell me that I have brought warmth, a smile, and maybe a LOL to their life. I am thrilled whenever a friend sends me their flashing bright smile.

This is what I am hoping for and if you are interested please e-mail me. I do not mind cut and paste e-mails or e-mails with attachments (such as in sending jokes or something quite lengthy or a pic you might send), but I would ask that you do not send me "forwarded" e-mails. I will not purposely add you to a lengthy friends list, and I ask the same in return. These are somewhat impersonal and a good way to catch a bug :(

Thank you and hugs friend :)

"Grandma's Cookstove" was the first story I wrote for Loveinvest's friends and I did place here. Some stories may be about places this goofy male has visited, or old TV shows, or new ones, events (especially goofy things that have happened to this goofy guy) and sometimes personal observations on life. I "cut and paste", attach from files or type freehand and I do NOT use forwards to my friends or use address books. Your reply is what I use to send the next one to. If the internet messes up (as it does sometimes), and you get missed, just send me an e-mail. I will usually only drop you from e-mails if you tell me to, or if you are a newer friend and you are not responding, or if I ever get a "Dameon" message (those nice ones that tell you that it was undeliverable). I do each e-mail individually. I plan to use my Sundays I have off every two weeks to read, study and respond to any e-mail you may have sent that I have not had time to properly respond to. Forwards and address books seem so far removed from what warm caring friends do for each other that I do not use them. I know they do serve a purpose for certain messages, but I would rather cut and paste and not see all the arrows along the sides as well as the breaks of addresses :)

A writer is not much use without a reader to share with. You have my blessing to post (but not to plagiarize for profit) whatever I personally write wherever you wish. Anything else I say I am sharing in the e-mail or on this website, as in a joke, picture (if we get to know each other better I have selected seven pictures to trade) or other miscellaneous item (like the cake test found here ), I would appreciate that you keep for personal uses only. I do not cut and paste anything copyrighted without adding the copyright, but who knows if whoever passes along to me what I feel is nice to pass along to you also forgot to pass along a copyright notice or something.

I have/have had many friendships (male and female) of many types, all the way from the "occasional contact" type of friends to "VERY" close friends exchanging pictures, addresses and even visits. I would like to be your mysterious, goofy, male writer friend. I currently work a lot of hours as a supervisor and writing serves to relax me as I feel I am sharing something that someone may cherish and enjoy, hopefully you. And who knows, maybe you will find the key?
