For the ones you love
03/15/2012 05:43 a.m.
Can anything truly be good enough for them, or can anyone else truly love them enough? To be anguishing on the sidelines while the world hurls curveballs, drifts smoke and mirrors in their path, blinds itself to the diamonds and gold of their intellect and heart....and only to encourage and cheer them on thru such unholy territory, knowing they should not bear the burden of your emotions on their behalf while they navigate this sad bad world. After all, they did not ask to be born, and once born only asked for your love. Just to love is a very hard thing to do.

For Which I am Truly Grateful
05/28/2009 05:53 a.m.
Not necessarily in this order:

My job
Where else in this perky breasted world could a mid-lifer
be truly appreciated each day.

My son
For validating all the sacrifice and love expended on him.
(All is forgiven for 1998, 1999, and the majority of 2000)

My car
For being a faithful sidekick and asking
so very little in return.

My son again
For giving me basis for belief that someday
I may be able to add his little sister to this list

My father
For showing by example everything I ever needed to know,
Including loving forgiveness when I ignored it.

My genes
That during the various stages of my life I never got hooked on alcohol, marajuina, xanax, prozac, or therapy. Not that I haven't tried a few.

My friends
Oh yes, my very good and fine companions.

What fun! Thanks Indigo for the link!




Your Seduction Style: The Charmer





You're a master at intimate conversation and verbal enticement.
You seduce with words, by getting people to open up to you.
By establishing this deep connection quickly, people feel under your power.
And then you've got them exactly where you want them!

Just for Posterity
05/28/2003 04:17 a.m.
Posted on the Brag board after making the weeks top 10 for a few fleeting seconds. Good thing I was quick with the screen print or it would have been lost forever. I was inspired by Peter O'Toole's speech at the 2003 Oscars. He is truly a grand orator in the great old traditional sense! He has been my favorite most all my life. Anyway, I'm saving this:
Subject: A magnanimous and joyous thank you!
Commence:

"You like me, you really, really like me!"~Sallie Field.

For a brief few seconds in time you allowed "Kiss of Death" to sit in a seat of great honor among the Top 10 Creative.
To be noted by these fine artisans and craftpersons has touched me deeply, and humbled me beyond expression.
This, dear friends will take its place on the mantle next to...well, no mantle here, but I did take a screen shot
and now bask in the reflective glow of my new background. As my fingers tap out the happy dance of my gratitude-
I thank you, Pathetic; I thank all of you for rousing such joyous laughter in my heart and in my soul.
My fine fellows and companions,You are truly good.
(modestly bows as backing off the stage)
