Every morning I climb a mountain of deficiencies I throw myself off to catch a feel of wind in wings But all I've felt is jagged rock and broken bone [This message has been edited by Aenimal (05-13-2003 03:12 PM).] |

Yes, I can relate to this. Seems I try to take flight and feel light as air each day...but my shortcomings have a way of oiling my wings. Such is life I suppose. Good write - enjoyed. Chris "Hope" is the thing with feathers- |

I guess we are all looking to feel that wind...we are such gluttons for punishment, aren't we? |

Raph, Well, I am lazier than you, I don't bother with the climb, I just wallow in it sometimes. They say acceptance is everything, huh? Grins for your talent of getting across feelings in so few words, though one never knows the reality of the write, heart hugs to you. I so enjoy your work. Pat  |

You can't fall if you never climb. I think its the possibly of falling that drives us. |

Chris such is life? No ..it shouldn't be Dixie you know me well Pat I have a routine every morning before work, i argue with myself the reasons for waking up...going to a job i hate to support a life i hate even more..it's mostly a losing battle and i find it harder and harder to lift my head off the pillow Brad drive? what's that? dream hard to enjoy the view when you're choked by the stench of what you're sitting on but thanks bud Magnus a rocket pack is what i need..grin Maree that means alot to me especially coming from an aussie, we aussie's have to stick together..well..yeah I'm canadian but I was made an honorary Aussie a long time ago I hope it still sticks |

Between the opening of the wings and the rock you hit ....there is that space where you should linger, the feel of the flight, it's a question of taking the right current ..... the current of trust! Sei bravissimo! Abbracci. Margherita |
