Hey Everyone,
In the past few threads, I've been enjoying reading a poster's comments about the things that have been very, very good to him (such as basketball and brisket,) and the things that have NOT been very, very good to him (such as jello casseroles.)
Naturally, I started to wonder what other people would say have been very, very good to them -- and what have not.
I know we can ALL say that God has been very, very good to us!
But what other things, both silly and serious, have been very good to you... or not?
* What about people? Family, teachers, bosses, and co-workers?
* Places? What places have lifted your spirits? What places were disappointments, or do you now avoid?
* Foods? What foods have you found to be very, very good? And what are some.. that need to be thrown into the Lake of Fire? (Reference to a past thread!)
* Sports, hobbies, or activities? What things did you find you were good at -- or maybe not so good?
For me --
1. I am so blessed to have family and friends who have been very, very good to me. Distance, however, is NOT very good to me, as all of my friends are thousands of miles away. But, I'm very thankful to keep in touch with daily chats, email, and occasional phone calls and visits.
2. I've lived in a few different places and most were very good -- interesting sites to see, fun things to do, and good churches. However, the heat in some of the areas was NOT good to me at all, sometimes giving me heat rashes and definitely reinforcing my love of The Great INdoors!
CC has also been very good to me, even though I was a bit of a firecracker when I got here (imagine that!!)
But, the CC administration gave me a chance, and I will always be grateful for the opportunity and friends I've made here. 
3. There are so many foods I WANT to be good to me, but unfortunately, are not very good for me (chocolate, pasta, desserts.) Although it's definitely not a favorite food, spinach has been very good to me. It's the one vegetable I can always seem to manage to eat, no matter how tired I get of eating vegetables.
4. Walking has been very good to me. I'm horribly clumsy and terrible at any sport, so I've always relied on walking for exercise. Throughout my life, walking was always available and usually low-cost (I did finally buy a treadmill but become painfully bored on it.) I've always felt blessed to have explored some really neat places, like garden centers and old churches -- just by walking through them!
I can also say that COUCHES (especially the extra fluffy, cozy kind,) have been very, very good to me...
But unfortunately, they're NOT very good FOR me.
Now it's your turn!
What things have been very, very good -- and not so very, very good -- for you?
