the cold stings the senses into remission seen through icicles: the distortion of a life endured M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

This is very beautifully written. I think all of us have been through what you wrote here. Like you also wrote, we endure. When the family is together, the soul is at peace - Russian Proverb |

Everything is a distortion when viewed through eyes which see not. I liked the image of ice distorting things and related it to the coldness within. ~ Why Do Gorillas Have Big Nostrils? / Because They Have Big Fingers. ~ |

Bruce, so nice that you are still here to give me a boost once in a while Thank you. The_Doctors_Angel_32, I certainly can endure...but this lingering cold weather is beginning to wear me out! Lori, my days are whatever they are...once I get moving nothing else matters. It's a Snow/Ice day today...no school again! JP, some days I feel like we are living in the Arctic, having so many days of freezing weather in a row definitely slows one day when not use to it. steavenr, Thank you for the cool reply! e, you are always such a sweethheart. Not so sure about the talent...I seem to be wearing down or is that wearing out!?! M Diana, hope it's warmer where you are. Thank you for responding and for the updates on Linda. M RMW- well looky here~~ a stranger~~ missed you and hope all is well in your area of the country. The iceman has cometh today!( Not you, but the weather) Marti, Thank you! Rex, definitely colder on the outside! Thanks. faithmairee, short was all I could produce when my mind is almost as frozen as the icicles I see. Thank you, everyone, M |
