I agree living a lie is the worst.
I think gymnasticts would be great. I am amazed at what those people can do. But I would like to be a professional golfer even though I don't think that is in the Olympics.
What is your fav male name?

Those gymnasticts make me envoius !!
Elliott is my fave male name - from ET
My B/F called her baby- Elliott so he is my special boy !
Fave female name ?

Andrea, Matea and Renata (all of which are Italian and German LOL)
Do you find frogs cute ?

No, I cannot stand frogs!!
On the subject of forgiveness, I think it speaks greatness on the part of a spouse when he or she is willing to forgive a wrongdoing. I guess it is just an individual thing but very cathartic to the person who did the wrong when the spouse/SO is willing to forgive a grievous error.
Would you like to live in China for awhile? My brother in law has been working there for over 2 years, but not in Beijing.

I agree about forgiveness - everybody should be given another chance especially if one is so honestly sorry and ashamed of what they did. My husband gave me so much love all those years - was with me when I myself did not want to be "with me" any more , there is honestly nothing I would not forgive him in that respect - except if he maybe did some really kinky stuff LOL that would gross me out totally !!!!!!!! LOL
I would like to live in Imperial China as a Favorite Gifted Concubine LOL (one has to know about the lives of those concubines to wish it LOL), but to live in present time - I would not.
Would you like to live in India for a while?

I am not into India although I did set up travel arrangements for my former boss who traveled there a few times. I used to have a career and actually sit every day at a desk!!!
Also on forgiveness--my husband forgave me for my past wrongdoing, and for that I will be eternally grateful. It was very cathartic for me to get it off of my chest, and I did so because I thought that possibly the suppressed emotional issue could be contributing to my physical probs.
When my former boss was there, he looked up into the sky and saw a tiny yellow dot that was the sun!! We used to have a picture up in my area of him standing on the Great Wall. My brother in law is enjoying the Chinese people and has learned a lot of Chinese. We did have a fellow employee visit our facility, and she brought me a CD of Chinese music.
What do you think China should do about their pollution prob?

i think i must have double standards lol! i've always taught my kids never to lie, and even though my son, who is VERY clumsy, does something catastrophic most days, he always tells me because he knows i would be more upset by him lying (which he never, ever does anyway) than if he tells me what he's done, when most of the time i can clear up the mess/get it mended/call in the plumber- you get the picture! but when it comes to infidelity, i dont think i could ever forgive my husband if he cheated on me, even though i would want to, so thats the only reason why i think it could be better unsaid. i mean, if he suddenly confessed today that he cheated on me 5 years ago, that would be the end of our marriage, and for what..? when we just imagine a problem its very hard to know exactly how we would feel unless it actually happens - its easy to say we would forgive infidelity, but it makes a mockery of all the trust we have in that person, but i would never cheat on him and i dont think he would ever cheat on me!

i think china needs an incentive to reduce emissions,


who is your favourite author/favourite book?

Favorite book is The Samurai's Garden by Gail Tsukiyama.

Do you trust your spouse?

Yes, I do. I have a wonderful spouse, and we have put up with each other for 38 years in spite of raising a handicapped son and going through many other difficult situations.
Do you think tourists are being adequately protected in China during the Olympic games?

I just know that I would forgive - 28 years of being together and 26 being married and going through so much together - no woman or man would be worth of braking that up LOL . We are now basically one being , one soul , inseparable by anything but death ...
I don't know about what kind of protection you are talking about dear Cheryl LOL, but if I was there I would worry more about my lungs than anything else ; )) !
How many hours a day you spend watching Olympics ?
