It seems that when the holidays come illness arrives in time to take away the merry of it and leave me alone in rhyme. Pressures often wear me out the empty to minutes fill never understanding why but accepting whatever will. Staying in, relaxing the mood but content to do the need for holidays don't agree with me, something I must concede. So I put up one small tree and lights to give me a sense of being and music playing to my ears to rise in me the freeing Of feelings tensed, and pounding thoughts to rid of by day's end remembering the better times till I am on the mend... M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

Maureen, Please take very good care of yourself! [this sad 'ol world truly needs you!]: I especially loved the following: "So I put up one small tree and lights to give me a sense of being and music playing to my ears to rise in me the freeing Of feelings tensed...... remembering the better times till I am on the mend...." I hope your 2007 holds fine new promise! Lovely 'write'! |

May I join the chorus expressed by others here? Take care of yourself; know that you are among the majority of individuals during the holidays. |

latearrival, oh I don't have to fake a spirit..I just seem to have low resistence to germs at this time of year and especially since working with first graders. I held out for them till school vacation but it has taken its toll on me. So now my vacation is spent in bed recuperating... Thank you, kaila. |

Maureen, I understand this so much. I seem to have very little holiday spirit some years. And, I put up a tree just "to give me a sense of being", at times. Love ya, dear lady. Hugs, Ethel |
