~*~ Now leaving POINT "A" Two steps forward, And one foot back (up one step!) Three steps forward, And two steps back (up another step!) Four steps forward, And two steps back (still up two more steps!) Five steps forward, And two steps back (up another 3 !!!) 1+1+2+3 = 7 net steps forward! Now arriving at POINT "B"! ~*~ [This message has been edited by Earth Angel (05-14-2003 09:40 AM).] |

Hon, your brain works far better than mine first thing in the morning. Not sure if I'm coming or going here! Huggles, Marti Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts. A.Einstein |

Ethel ~ Not exactly what you'd call beautiful poetry! LOL So often in life, we get frustrated when we seem to be making some progress in something, and then things go wrong and we slip back. But if we stick with something, we'll eventually get it done--or arrive at our desired destination. Never give up! I truly believe that! May you accomplish all that you set out to do! Luvin' hugs, Linda |

Marti ~ I'm a firm believer in never giving up on your dreams. I have accomplished a fair bit in my life so far, and it is because I plod onward--despite the road blocks that could hinder my progress. I either work through them--or around them!--but I never give up! Onward and upward! This is not exactly a pretty poem, but I wanted to convey my thoughts in a simple and straight forward manner. This philosophy really works for me! May you stay the course and never give up on what you want out of life! Huggums, Linda |

Linda - Two steps backward, And one foot forward (down one step!) Three steps backward, And two steps forward (down another step!) Four steps backward, And two steps up (still down two more steps!) Five steps backward, And two steps forward (down another 3 !!!) 1+1+2+3 = 7 net steps backward! Now I’m in the basement, hehehe….. BC |

BC ~ You are a loveable nut bar! Somehow I think you'd be better off following my philosophy! That was a very clever reply! Thank you for taking the time!--and for making me break out laughing! Hope this is just you being a funny guy-- and not a reflection of your current state of affairs! Huggums, Linda |

Pat ~ Why, I'd consider it an honor! By all means print it out for your grandson!--and give him great, big healing hugs from me while you're at it!--and keep one for yourself! Loves and hugs to both of you! Linda |

(giggles in delight) Yay!!! And I am never ashamed to turn back a step sometimes, for I believe it is a great learning experience and I want to be able to savor some of the colors along the way for more than one glimpse! (big hugggsssssss) This is wonderful, sweet friend, yay, we're winning, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story |
