We hit the wrong key and *bing bong*
when using 'windows' we're alerted
humans though - just get wrong signals
and all their emotions just get diverted

Saying sorry never seems to work for me
cause I never meant it the way it was read
like hitting the wrong key but different effect
deleting impossible once the words are read

So I'm being quiet not daring to say a word
knowing a right can never justify a wrong
silence only hurts can rarely ever be heard
just me and the Robin in full morning song

Hitting wrong keys are just part of life, Rainbow. The only way to avoid doing that is to turn the machine off....not much of a future in that. Keep those keystrokes flowing!

Ah, Cindy, did someone misunderstand something that you said? That happens to me all the time, or at least it used to (not on the internet, out in the 'real' world...hehe)
Well, the way I figure it, at least half of the time it wasn't really my fault, it was the fault of the 'hearer'. Well, at least that's what I tell myself....hehehe...it makes me feel better!   HUGS

Rainbow~
     Don't ever worry about hitting those "wrong Keys" -- at least you know that you are trying to do something instead of being too afraid to try anything at all.  And believe me, I would rather have made a wrong keystroke than none at all, no matter how badly it fouls things up.  The ones who love me (like we all love you) will always be there to help "proofread" everything anyway!



Love ya~
