Where would I be without you? Do you REALLY wanna know? There's a place called Better Off Somewhere in New Mexico! A place called Better off, I'm looking for that sign. A place so much better Than the one I'll leave behind. Oh, once you've been to HELL and back Any place will do. And anywhere is better than Being here with you! Where would I be without you? Do you REALLY wanna know? There's a place called Better Off And I am ready to go! Todd-Michael Phillips...A Passion's Resident Poet since 5/19/1999 |

Packed with a to the point message. I like it, and hope this isn't the way you're actually feeling towards anyone right now. |

Hey Temptress, thanks for the post, even when it hurts I still believe the truth is good therapy, just saying what one feels is so much better than living in denial, I believe that even when we're in the pits, or going through adversity & pain, it's OK to express anger & we are entitled to that emotion too, just as long as we move beyond it & find peace, Yes it is a sincere emotion I have felt as of late, but I will survive & feel better having spilled my guts here among friends & kindred souls!

This goes to show how bouts of anger pass & we feel differently the next day, I just read this again & I already can't relate to how I felt! But I am still glad I wrote it down, I guess writing is good & bad, ups and downs... because sun minus rain equal NO rainbow!!! Todd-Michael Phillips...A Passion's Resident Poet since 5/19/1999 |

Good way to get it off your chest, then, right??? I like your message Pepper "I honor the place in you, that when you are in that place, and I am in that place in me, we are in the same place" Ram Dass |

What would that address be again? Jamie Tu ne cede malis, sed contra audentior ito. - Virgil. "Yield thou not to adversity, but press on the more bravely". |
