    Who has been the most important person in your life?

    Who has been the most important person in your life? Are you able to narrow it down to just one person? If not then two or even three will do.

    My lovely OH, without a doubt. When I proposed the toast to him at his 60th birthday party I said that all the good things in my life have come from knowing him, and it's true.

              Me too and as you know I had to kiss a lot of frogs............. It isn't always the big things is it? It is the things like seeing something and knowing we cannot look at each other for fear of a giggling fit; like when he had a really rubbish day with his delegates cheating on their exam in his training course and he 'phoned me to "hear a friendly voice"; him coming up to town just to meet me when I have a late event so I don't have to go home alone; us working together on our work projects like him helping me with my resource room move and me making congratulations cards and certificates for his delegates for their graduation; working together on Time to Shine and all of that sort of thing. Little things count as much as the big things and yes, Oma, his support of me when I was ill - I honestly do not think I would have made it without him and I did give him some trouble at times (red face).

                Can I join you Zizi, in the frog kissing department ??? This is my 3rd marriage, first hubby passed on, 2nd ended in divorce, this one is nearly 25 years! I am not counting all the various fiances I managed to accumulate from 19 - 29

                So I am saying yes, it is my OH ...who tells me just to be myself when I am often worried about being just that! And who has stood steadfastly beside me through every great up and lots of blinking downs.

                  Yes Elisi me too - three. One who I thought was the love of my life and who disappeared one night never to be seen again leaving me pregnant although to be fair neither of us knew at the time. I did hear from him a couple of years later but by then it was too late. next one was one of the biggest mistakes of my life. A drinking, bullying, violent pig. He died of a heart attack about three years after I divorced him. I was living with someone when I met "proper" husband but it was starting to go cold, he didn't like my son. Sometimes I coudn't tell who was the child and who was the adult to be honest. Husband and I gradually got together through friendship and will have been together 32 years this year. Whenever I think of the last 32 years I think what a waste the previous years were. Still all over now, silver wedding to celebrate soon, what a lucky lucky man he is (ditto me but woman)

                    I think it's very hard to name one person. My OH is extremely important but my father was a huge influence and certainly the most important in the first two decades of my life. My children and grandchildren are also important and all my friends who have shaped and influenced who I am over the years. It's a bit like the ingredients of a cake, what's the most important? Not possible to say, they all complement each other and come together to make a whole.

                      Zizi, Heavens when you find out what people have been through. Raising a glass to your 32 years

                      Minny, your post made me ponder. Of course you are right. So many people influence us as individuals over the course of our lives.
