Feeling Blue : 101

I try to learn from the downs how precious the ups are...but the downs have great lessons too, that we can often only appreciate looking back at them. Rated

I get it, Little Kate, I get it. But when you are at the "end of your rope" the key is to hang on and don't let go. Instead, put one hand over the other , slowly but surely, until you reach the other end. Just don't let go.

Mary Ann: Thank you for stopping by my friend. Yes, I agree, it's later that we can appreciate that we've learnt something from the times that have been sent to test us.

Lezlie: I know where you're coming from but with this particular dilemma (person) I feel like I've been hanging on for so long now that I really think I might need to let it (them) go.

Thoth: Thank you kind sir! I am so glad to have you stop by. Much appreciated.

It's good to put our feelings in a capsule at times...then swallow them whole!

LK: I love trying to work in verse. The last line captures how I end up feeling after much strife and bickering. I get numb. That's not a good place. Good job getting it down on paper though.

Working in verse is very much a new-found focus for me so I'm thrilled if others are enjoying it too. I am, of course, a novice so please don't expect too high a quality from me ... I am trying though. Thank you for understanding too. I am so glad you dropped by.

P.S. so funny to find you somewhere else and realize that you also hung out around these OS parts.

Hi Caroline! Yes, it's so nice to see you there and here! "Where's there?" they may ask ... Well, that's for Caroline, Trilogy and I to know and for others to find out!

I appreciate your feedback here too! Kindest regards.
