Anguish and life go hand in hand If we were perfect If we had nothing to suffer There'd be no mending or repairing No learning process If we fall in love Once, twice, thrice We'd not remember our heartache We'd make The same mistakes over and over Again ©January 29, 2013 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~*~ If they give you ruled paper write sideways . . . ~*~ |

Its like having A baby...you scream and yell in pain and say never again but you turn around and have another baby ha. Enjoyed Jerry. ~Victoria I was adored once too. |

Ah yes, you got that right, dear Jerry. And without suffering how would we distinguish joy? Yes we are all students on this planet Earth I guess. And most of us (probably all!) repeat and repeat the lessons before "getting it". Thought provoking and wise. Margherita |

I fear that many of us, Margherita, repeat and repeat the lessons and still never see the light for the clouds over their head. Makes me think of the character in the 'Lil Abner comic strip who had a dark raincloud following him around. Appreciate your input . . . ~*~ If they give you ruled paper write sideways . . . ~*~ |

The reality of this is sad, but true, no escaping it if we are to truly experience life |
