Who's your MVP?

[DishLady]

In work or in life, who's your "MVP" -- the one who supports your thoughts and vision, who helps you along the way and just makes you feel amazing about the things you do?

Wow, I knew all my GAG friends were sweethearts, but you guys are all really just lovely. I'm glad that a few of the gals also shared their MVPs!

Not doing an MHO for this one. Your choices are all equally touching and valuable. <3

[CalmUntilAbused]

Well... No one fully supports my thoughts and vision, not even myself - they sometimes get too dark to responsibly support. As for supporting the bright enough of my thoughts and the more optimistic parts of my vision (still a majority of them, I'd say), as well as providing me with help along the way - that's definitely my Father. I'd be far more miserable if not for His support. On a regular basis, I don't really feel amazing with the things I do - mild satisfaction is usually the best it gets. As for the moments where I actually do feel amazing with the things I do... I'd attribute those moments to God Almighty, and probably to my Father and my Grandmother to some extent. Also, the fact that my thoughts and vision are not even darker than they actually are should mostly be attributed to my Grandmother and the effort She put in to bring me closer to God Almighty.

You are one of them. I know it's sad because it's online friendship. But it's easier to talk to someone you know you won't see. Like with FM. I've told him things I don't think I could had we met at a job or something. Same with you. I don't talk with nobody else except Linda. She's out here. You know.
Words of encouragement.
You never know people, when your words may be just what a person needs to hear.

[DishLady]

Aww. Thanks, D.

[Dongie]

😘😶‍🌫️😶‍🌫️

[Dongie]

Hmm... I forgot Dina.

[DishLady]

I didn't. I figured you'd add her any sec.

[Dongie]

You didn't say anything. I guess you wanted to see how long it took. Well, it really didn't take long. As soon as I got called back over here, I realized it.

[DishLady]

Nah. I didn't want to be rude. You know your own heart best. She's definitely in there, no doubt, complete with MVP trophy. :)

[Dongie]

Yeah, yelling at me to be quiet

[DishLady]

🙄 😂

[OlderAndWiser]

My refuge is my wife. I feel better just standing near her!

[abc3643]

My dog, Dr. Evil. She's a genius even among border collies. She's smarter than most Republicans. If she had thumbs and didn't like me, I'd be scared.

But, she reminds me of the last lines in "Marley and Me".

Definitely my girlfriend Raine.

She helped me heal after a hard breakup WITHOUT being romantic, she's always encouraged me to chase my goals and dreams (in practical step-by-step ways), and to boot she's ALWAYS there when I need someone I can just lay my head on.

[Iron_Man]

it was my brother now he passed away. I’m all by myself in the world and my friends have betrayed me because they want my house gold diggers so I’m stuck alone in the world.

[DishLady]

RIP.

For me it’s always been mom (RIP), and now my kids.

[Iron_Man]

Well, he’s alive in heaven

[Iron_Man]

I hope your mother is

[DishLady]

Amen.

She better be! 😂

[Iron_Man]

Yes, she is

[Dongie]

I'm sorry.

[Dongie]

Heh, you're funny

[Iron_Man]

@Dongie who is funny Dishlady

[Dongie]

Yeah.

[NathanDavis]

my best friend, and my dog... and they're both still with me, they never left (=

[DishLady]

Aww... <3 <3 <3

[OfMiceandMen]

I would say my mom and dad, equally. I can always go back to them for good common sense/moral advice.

[Dongie]

You ARE A LUCKY SOB. Mine were gone before I turned 43.

[OfMiceandMen]

@Dongie I know I am lucky, so many of my friends parents are gone. Sorry, about your parents, must've been tough.

[Dongie]

Yep. My mom was 65.

[Dongie]

Oh, thanks tho.

[OfMiceandMen]

@Dongie Not a problem, and take care.🍻

[Dongie]

You know you were written by a favorite author of mine?

[OfMiceandMen]

@Dongie Hehehe... one of my favorites too. The movie was good but the book was soooo much better, couldn't put it down.

[Dongie]

Yep. I finally caught just a brief few minutes with Gary Sinese I think playing George I think?

[Dongie]

So you are not having a birthday in the next few days?

[Dongie]

I had to check your age as a Stienbeck fan and all. You probably like the old movies. From the 30s and 40s.

[OfMiceandMen]

@Dongie He did a good job. Pretty much like any movie Gary is in.

[OfMiceandMen]

@Dongie I do like the older movies, used to watch them with my parents.

[Dongie]

Have you read all of Steinbeck?

[Dongie]

Also, have you seen the original with Lon Chaney.

[OfMiceandMen]

@Dongie Not all of them, five total.

[OfMiceandMen]

I have not seen the original movie with Lon Chaney.

[Dongie]

I can't think of but 5 myself. Winter of our Discontent, In Dubious Battle, The Pearl, The Grapes of Wrath, East of Eden, Cannery Row, Tortilla Flats, Of Mice and Men, The Red Pony.

[Juxtapose]

Absolutely nobody takes *THAT* much of an interest in my goals or activities.. especially to the point of helping unprompted.

People like me because I am chill, flexible, reasonably intelligent and I like indulging them.

[MisterWack]

My girlfriend is my MVP!

Anyone else feel the same about their girlfriend, boyfriend, Spouse, etc? You feel me?

[Serkee]

I don't really have anyone like that. I have a couple role models, my dad and my grandpa, but I don't really have anyone who supports me or what I do.

[Nerdvana]

It's you Dish. You are so beautiful and amazing.

[DishLady]

☺️ Thanks, @Nerdvana, so are you.

[ryanrhino]

Behind every successful person, there may be a supportive spouse. I am wholly behind that.

[HawkPerception]

My best friend. Whenever family gets me down, he's always a pick-me-up

[worldscolide]

Absolutely my wife, without her I'm nothing.

[worldscolide]

@DishLady Do you mind if i ask a variation of this question?

[DishLady]

Go ahead! ❤️

[worldscolide]

Who in your life are you the MVP for? Who do you stand next to and support no matter the cost? ↗

[DishLady]

I just added mine. :)

[legalboxers]

no one.. sadly

[DishLady]

You can be your own MVP! :)

[legalboxers]

I usually am...

[jack1924]

My mother, no one can compete with her in this

[DishLady]

Amen. :)

[jack1924]

Appreciate it, thanks
I bet you are a pretty good mother yourself🙂

[BCRanger10]

My wife ❤️❤️❤️

[WhitneySnow]

My boyfriend and my best friends

[StudyingAuthor]

My cousin... she's usually in my corner.

[exitseven]

my wife does all of those things.

[_no_one_]

My mother 100%

[sirderpsalot123]

girlfriend and my mom

[TonyMetal___86]

Without a doubt, my mom 😌

[KralArthur]

My family and friends of course

[Ironco]

Well, again I would say it's me.

[Grond21]

My girlfriend
