After 12 years, does anyone really know me? Will you wait till I'm gone to say things that you would have never said under prior angel wings or whatever the season brings? That's fine, since i am not really here until I am suicidal and want someone to say one word to keep me here and out of all my fear and DUI reverie, see, it's no fun. So hello to whatever someone might be here. Here but gone in spite of anything at all. See, whatever anyone says to me in reply, I'm not gonna make it through the fall. |

Beloved Dixie, here but gone, I will just send you a big hug. When you are not here you are missed. Your poetry is powerful, beautiful, poignant, like this one. About knowing each other I will say that it is difficult to perfectly know each other, we are different worlds individually, even though we are part of the Whole, thus One. Just read an opinion by Raimon Panikkar about this in French, will give both versions: On ne peut pas bien connaître si on n'aime pas. On ne peut pas bien aimer sans connaître. It's not easy to know each other without loving each other. It's not easy to love each other without knowing each other So love and knowledge go hand in hand, I would say. Love and hugs. Margherita  "Love is the One who masters all things; |

If you can write poetry as good as you do then you can get through anything...you are a bright star that shines comfort upon many people within these blue pages...to not have that star shining the comfort, would be akin to birds that suddenly stop singing...thank you as always for the words you share so well...

I want to say that I should log on here more often and see what you have to say,.,,,., days pass and moments go and we wonder if we shoulda said this or that or looked that one person up fromour past, or made that one call that we regret not making....and then it seems too late and wonder if they think of us at all...I can relate...take care!!! ~~~kingsangel~~~ |

Dixie, I really do not think any one can really know the all of any one else. We are all so many people within that it is hard for us to even know the all of ourselves. Too often we think we are whoever someone else says we are. I always looked for friends who would bring out the best of me and told my children to try to do the same. I had six children and I am sure if you asked, each one would give you a different picture of me. And each friend or relative would also give you a piece of who they think I am, but no one knows the all of who we are. We show only a bit of ourselves to others as we go though life. I have always been fascinated with biographies and Auto biographies because I do not know how one person could really know another person enough to write the whole of them. Please do not worry about what others think and go about being the best of who you really are. You Are Loved. |

I was where you are now once, passing shadows. I was so heavily there I walked to the middle of the Mississippi River Bridge in New Orleans with every intentions of stepping off the damn thing. Something stopped me. I sincerely hope something will stop you. DUI's and everything else can be DEALT WITH! ~~ Those who are silent are the first to be shot. ~~ |

Hi Dixie, I don't know if you remember me or not, but when I frequented these pages, you were always there, writing your heart out and responding to me and others, showing you cared. Sometimes we don't know how much an impression we made on another unless they tell us. You are one of my favorite people here, and sometimes what YOU wrote to me made all the difference in the world. Hang in there, Lady. You have so much to offer. Your work is not finished. Hugs, Sadelite (Sadie) and miscee |
