The atmosphere is thick, crushed by the weight of thought, my routine interrupted as it was once before, long ago. Station after station reporting the unknown. Rejection, failure, fragments disintegrating. Demolished by a moment's glimpse, my mood invaded into somberness. Dismal gray, a dismal day. "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." (Will Moss) [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (02-01-2003 05:59 PM).] |

you captured the bleak grey all too well. Cloudy, foggy, and flooding here. .. you know, of course you don't, I'll tell you! I don;t know why, but one of my favorite colors is silver... because its how I act alot (strange I know) but silver is only a glorified gray. a bleak color made to look good. I don't know why I shared.. but hey something to think about anyyyyway, I enjoyed this in a ..bleak way. Always, Alyssa - And so it was that time stood still - |

The atmosphere is thick all right, but the fact remains they didn't die in vain. Each man and woman did their part and will be remembered, not as a failed attempt, but as American astronauts who dared to live their dreams. We owe them that much, as they become a part of our history that transcends their very dream. [This message has been edited by BluesSerenade (02-01-2003 09:32 PM).] |

KayJay I remember that day. I was teaching a science class in Middle School. Negative news is something I don't handle well, and yet I can't just turn it off when it is of importance. Thanks Dixie, for stopping by hugsssssss M [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (02-03-2003 09:17 PM).] |
