Bull-headed though I may be, There are times even I can see, That my actions can be unwise, Looking only through my own eyes. PiP is a good poetry spot, Pushing envelopes I will not. I've rubbed people the wrong way, I apologize for the fray. ~ I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me. ~ |

Ever so moo! I love cattle, especially a bull who can apologise. I have no idea who you rubbed up the wrong way, but I am sure the people concerned are just as happy as I am, that you are going to stay just where you are! Owl |

It is better to give than receive. You give me a gift of seeing you through your words of rhyme. Peace is in your heart from what I have seen, not malice to anyone. Some people accept perception as being their own way, when in fact perception belongs to everyone. With this apology you have proven yourself to be wise, and they should suffer no longer, that is unless their perception is week. John Wayne once said that apologizing is a sign of weakness. That is probably the only thing he said I wouldn’t agree with. Apologizing is a humbling pronouncement for anyone. Now! That stuff should now be water under the bridge! So get to work and write young man, write! (Pilgrim)…  Peace, joy, and happiness!! JL  Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,and with all your mind. Love your neighbor as yourself. Maranatha! |

You made me laugh (bull!?) Owl. JL, who knows that The Duke was right with that statement, but in this particular case I have to draw my sidearm against him. ~ I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me. ~ |

((((Jerry)))), among sensitive beings maybe it is not necessary to apologize, but what a wonderful gift it is nonetheless. And no, it is not a sign of weakness, but a sign of strength. Thank you, dear Jerry, for gracing us and Pip with your precious presence. Love, Margherita |
