Pulling myself together from files and drives folders notebooks stashed stacks and forgottens found I was amazed to see what I had ammounted to so far as I could find I know I've left a lot of me here and there along the way... I could probably go track back down But..... Having just taken stock and reviewed all the emotions I have been in rapid fire succession out of sync I'd like to think I'd find my way back to me on my own LGR(C)9/5/12 |

I think you're a prime candidate for "I'll find my way back to me on my own." ~*~ If they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ [This message has been edited by JerryPat2 (09-06-2012 06:38 AM).] |

It always seems to be overwhelming, those scattered bits and pieces, things that ARE us as we travel through life, and then we put them all in perspective, collect them and rearrange them back into where we know we will never forget what they mean and where they are, well... until the next time we feel the need to pull ourselves together. Love this write!! I think it's a reflection most can relate to. You said it so well. JL ![]() Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,and with all your mind.

now this sounds like something I would've written years ago before all these changes now I might not ever get back to me |

Margherita, it is true. Poems I thought were lost forever... I have found a few more right here under my nose. Poems from back in the 90's and back. Lori ![]() |

After all the changes you are still you we will forever be the sum total of our past and present. Going back and for the first time putting all my poetry together and finding "parts of me" missing, I decided not to worry about what was gone and just let what was supposed to come back to me be okay. The day after I wrote that while looking for something else I found poems I was looking for plus a few more forgotten and unfinished. It felt like a prayer answered Lori ![]() |
