So what are they? Everyone's got something they love more than life itself. Please explain since lists tend to be boring, and one word answers are unacceptable on Mene.

1. Would be my cat. She's kinda like my anti-depression and anxiety meds without any chemicals or side effects. I've had her since I was 9 and she's grown with me through so many things. Now, before you go calling me the crazy cat lady give me a break. I'm pretty sure I'd have been on all sorts of prozac and other crazy drugs by now to manage my stresses and such if she hadn't been around to come and cuddle with me exactly when I need her without asking.

2. My family. Now, this isn't in any particular order, I do consider my cat part of my family. Anyway, I have a small family, always have. And over the years it's just become important to stay close to them no matter what since I have so little. They're the only ones I know that love me unconditionally. No husband or friends can guarantee me that.

3. Rainbows and rain. This links back to when I was a wee baby girl and my grandma would stop whatever we were doing when it rained, take me outside into the garage, and watch it rain while we waited for it to end so we could see a rainbow...which somehow we saw them more often than not. Bless her soul, I'll always miss her.

1. My boyfriend. For obvious reasons...
2. Pokemon. Makes me smile all the time (:
3. Running. The running itself I don't really like, but the Endrophines after the run itself is worth it. The harder I tried, the better the result.
4. Chocolate (:

Mah pets. I miss dem. D; I like the feeling of not being alone even if I'm the only human in a house.

Sunshine in the morning. I especially like it when it pours through the window. Just makes a good start to the day.

Cerulean blue skies. Especially if it's over an open field. Makes me imagine travelling through it like on a journey or something.

Number one for me would have to be the night. It really doesn't matter the weather or moon phase, just being outside in the dark, cool blanket of night is calming and comforting in a way few other things are for me. I simply adore the way the soft air and moonlight feel on my skin. Along with this, creatures such as owls, cats and all the other beasties that lurk in the darkness have always painted a sense of awe, beauty and humility in my mind.

A very, very close second is the ocean. I grew up in the southern islands of Japan, where the crystal blue waters were warm, clean and smooth. Most of my childhood revolves around being in or near those waters, most memorably at night, of course. Rain and storms are a near tie with this as well. The rumble of thunder as the sky just opens up and the rain pounds down over the earth- it's exhilarating

And last, but absolutely not least, would be my long-time lover, Sam. While in terms of love, passion and caring, none of my partners are above the others (I am pansexual polyamorous.), he has been with me the longest and has literally pulled me back from the edge of death and despair more than once. I owe him my life, and so much more than I could ever hope to repay.

1. My family. They annoy me, I hate them somedays, but I love them more than everything. My pets are included here as they are family.
2. My boyfriend. He is the love of my life and he keeps me rooted and stable.
3. Summer, well no snow. Over 6 months of snow is enough to drive anyone batty, especially when we average snow fall in October...that's 5 months of no snow *cries* but anyway I love summer. Sunshine, swimming, camping, staying up late to star gaze, bbqs and tank tops.
4. Flowers. I'm a sucker for flowers. I want to be a florist, and make bouquets for people. Flowers are beautiful, simple, and have such a wondrous language.

Board games and coffee. That's really all I'll ever need. Well, and my friends and partner with which to play the board games.

1: Fish. I like watching them, catching them, swimming with them, eating them. One of the 3 dreams of my life is to see a whale shark.

2. My friends. There are things I wish I had, and friends aren't everything, but my life would be cold and grey without them.

3. Miniature games! I am obsessed with a game called warmachine. It makes my brain tingle with the challenge and strategery, and painting and modeling the miniatures is a great creative outlet.

4. sex. duh, lets admit it. Without a partner at this point it isn't as regular as it has been in the past, but even once in a while it's nice. It's not like food, or air... it's like dessert. Yeah you could live without it, but ...why?

5. my body and mind, my senses, and i guess what i mean is stiiiiiiiiiiimulation! There are specific things, like making music, fighting, archery practice, but in general i just I love... doing stuff! Especially new stuff, and exciting stuff, and stuff that makes me feel ways. Its just great!

thats about the order too

1. Larele: - Because she's wonderful <3
2. Menewsha.com - Do I really need to explain?
3. Animals - They make me happy. Especially when the most unexpecting creature can communicate so deeply when your mood is down.
4. Making people smile - People in this world don't smile enough.
5. ~*~ Insert something I wont say on mene here ~*~

1. The world
Theres so much to see and think about in the world.
2. Sleep
I need my sleep once in awhile...
3. Everyone, including you all <3
I could never live without someone to talk to!!
* my list of things I love will forever change and grow

There are so many things I love about this beautiful world. It's hard to list all of them.
1. Nature - Everything to do with nature is beautiful and innocent. It gives me light in my heart to see such innocence surrounding me.
2. Mah bed. :3 I love to sleep, lmao.
3. The internet and art are about on the same level. It gives me freedom to express my inner thoughts.
4. Acting/theater - I can be anyone I want to and get to delve deeper into my mind and character.

And, of course, family and God is always number 1 above everything I listed.

The things I love more than anything else on the planet are my children. They are just the most beautiful things I have ever seen, the radiate light and happiness and sometimes are the only thing that keeps me sane. I remember when I had my first daughter she was literally the only thing that kept my depression away for awhile. It had only been two years since my parents had died and i was as low as low could get, then I found out I was pregnant and suddenly there was a light at the end of the tunnel and reason for me to carry on and keep living my life. Then years later my second daughter came along and nothing could bring me down. They are the reasons that I have a positive outlook on life and they keep away the depression spells I used to get. They are my life and without them I wouldn't see the beauty in life itself.

That is an adorable story...

Awh, that is so sweet Alien. I'm so glad something came along and helped you out of your grief and depression.

My family...well at least my parents and siblings. This also includes my exhusband since he's been my best friend and he's always been there for me no matter what, even more so than my family has. Even through times where I hit rock bottom he's managed to pull me back up and honestly, I don't know if I would have been able to make it through those times without him. He never gave up on me even when everyone else did and he still continues to support me. I tell him all the time I don't know how he puts up with my crazy ass all the time. His reply is always that it's love and it needs no other explanation.

Spirituality: Not religion but having a healthy spirit since I believe that is something that is important for overall health. I believe that if something is off with the spirit then the body can not heal itself. Kinda like mental health is just as important as having physical health type of thing. I've had times where I just broke down and couldn't deal with things because I ignored the this before and told myself that I would always make sure I am okay before I worry about anything else.

My pets: my cats and my dog are like my children since I don't have children of my own. Pretty self explanatory there.

Art/music: They are my escape from things. This includes my writing as well as other people's art work and music/writing. This is apart of the Spirituality thing but thought it deserves it's own place as well since it has such a big role in my life.

I agree with the spirituality. I think the best thing you can do for yourself is have a healthy religion, or spirituality, or sense of self/self love. Without it you just aren't right.

I'm a simple person and I know between things that I enjoy and things I just could not live without.

1. My little sister. She brought a light in my life I never had before. I would do anything to keep her safe~!
2. My cats even though they can keep you awake. If your sick they are there to make you feel better even if the whole family has turned their back on you~ A cat will always be there to keep you happy~!
3. My family even though I don't always get along with them. They are there for when times get real tough~! I love them so much!
4. Now this is something I really love but if push came to shove I could give it up. The internet always been there to get me through tough times. Though it is just a luxiery and I do understand if needed I could give it up.
